LCFC rumours thread - Players & Managers

If we don't go in for Shipperly I will be very, very surprised.

If we want to get to the top of the table what use would Shipperly be?.

Yes, he had a decent pedigree and scored at a decent rate.

But since 2003 he's made just 40 appearances for Crystal Palace and 35 for Sheffield United scoring 19 times in those 75 matches, approximately two season's worth of games but spread over much longer.

He's not listed as having played in any of Sheffield United's games this season and seeing they are not do marvellously well that doesn't write much of a testament to his current form.

This clamour for "experience" is starting to frighten me.

Mandaric's arrival is supposed to be a brave new world not a tribute to the ancient mariner.

Experience is a neccessaty for this team as there progress will be stunted if there isnt players on board of a certain quality who can pass on there "wisdom" for a want of a better word.

Old stagers who have let themsleves go like Shipperley shouldnt be on our list of possible signings.

Someone like Pompeys Andy Cole who is still in shape and whenever he comes off the bench looks like he can do a job should be the type of player we should look at for a season and a half IMO. His trophy cabinet, proffesionalism and achievement should make the likes of our kids want to better themselves.

Whether we could get him is another matter though!

Sheringham in as player / manager from another forum posted by someone with "inside connections".

2 (Sheringham knows MM) + 2 (MM likes to sack managers) = 237

LAUREN could be a surprise package for LEICESTER CITY, as ARSENE WENGER told the defender that he is allowed to leave the club. Could a player of LAUREN'S quality arrive at LEICESTER CITY, a CHAMPIONSHIP OUTFIT club? The number 16 shirt is available, so LAUREN may take the number 16 SHIRT and wear it with pride for the FOXES, (for 3 months maybe)

lmao i doubt that will never happen

Rob Kelly sent out a scout to watch Martin Butler play against Grimsby not so long ago for Walsall, and it was reported that he was very impressed with the player. High sources say that he may well make a formal bid for the striker when Mandaric gets appointed on Thursday. Moreover, Matty Holland is still Number one target for the foxes chief. But Mandaric will only give Kelly £3m to spend and Kelly has been told to spend wisely, unlike Palace boss and former city boss Peter Taylor. Hopefully Akinbiyi isn't on Kelly's shortlist.

Ominously a newspaper report (probably made up but you never know) this morning reports that Dowie has told "friends" he has been offered the city job and intends to accept it and RK will be out as soon as MM gets the keys to the stadium. ( It doesn't say whether he will be bringing his mad brother with him)

Watch now as a Micky Adams rumour surfaces. lol

that would be crazy... :D

Sacked Coventry City manager Micky Adams is being lined up by Milan Mandaric for a sensational return to Leicester City, upon completion of Mandaric's takeover this weekend. Iain Dowie, previously rumoured to be favoured by Mandaric will instead be appointed Coventry City boss within two weeks

You have got anything to do with this have you?? :P

Some rumours from our favourite website............ some old some new, but it was funny to read through them....

Gareth Williams (Leicester City) is set to join Wigan Athletic for Dave Cotterall for a 2 year loan and 2 mil.

I particularly love this one !

Sacked Coventry City manager Micky Adams is being lined up by Milan Mandaric for a sensational return to Leicester City, upon completion of Mandaric's takeover this weekend. Iain Dowie, previously rumoured to be favoured by Mandaric will instead be appointed Coventry City boss within two weeks.
This is true. I went to school with young lad Widdowson of Widdowsons ( Major LCFC shareholder) Mandaric will be unveiled at 4pm press conference with Matty Holland today!
LEICESTER CITY are reportadly intrested in singning the net-busting BILLY SHARPE who has been on form for the leauge 1 side S****HORPE this may be possible as the takeover of MILAN MANDERIC is immenent releasing more funds for Rob Kelly during the January transfer window. Other players Rob Kelly targets are MATT HOLLAND, TODOROV and the highly rated Lauren for Arsenal on a loan spell.
Aston Villa are said to be intersted in Leicester City's Paul Henderson, in a deal worth around £300K
Milan Mandaric, who's takeover is imminent, is looking at 3-4 players: Richard Hughes and Todorov on loan. And a permanent deal for Matthew Jatvis of Gillingham is on the table.
A number of clubs are rumoured to be scouting Leicester's promising midfielder Levi Porter, with Everton leading the way for his signature, in a deal £1. 25 million, and Richard Stearman, who is still unsettled by the transfer speculation - and two bids - from the summer.
Darius Hendersen is set to sign for Leicester for 100k and fryatt
Leicester City will sign Matt Holland £300, 000 Luke Varney £750, 000 and Campbell-Ryce £750, 000 when Milan Mandaric takes over later this week

i had to laugh at getting lauren on loan. he rejects west ham so he will defintely choose us.

todorovs name keeps popping up now and again for us

alot of people seem convinced holland will come too.

Posted

Dont you just love rumours??! Its great picking up the tabloids especially as they make shite up all week and some of it sticks.

I`d put my head on the block and guess that with the exception of Nissa who is obviously coming to the end of his contract, that none of our younger players will be sold. It would be madness to let the likes of Stearman, Porter, Fryatt, Weso etc to go as we have now got the foundations in place and need that MM cash to take us up another level.

BTW lol at the Lauren transfer. If he comes to us I will personally go on youtube with a F*rest shirt on singing songs about Robin Hood :unsure:

Leicester striker Chris O'Grady joins the Millers

The young front man, who is 21 next week, has penned a £65k, 2 & half year deal with Rotherham from the Championship club after Tommy Wright's move from Barnsley fell through at the 11th hour on Monday.

Wright opted to join League Two Darlington as he couldn't agree personal terms at Millmoor and scored on his debut, paving the way for O'Grady to complete a deal, although MillersMAD understands the player has been a long term target for gaffer Alan Knill.

He has enjoyed loan spells at Notts County and Rushden and Diamonds in recent seasons and scored on his City debut in the Carling Cup against Macclesfield, with a claim to fame of scoring from the spot in pre-season against Inter Milan.

MillersMAD wish him all the best as he goes straight into the squad for Saturday's trip to Millwall.

Probably.

I imagine someone read my comment and became inspired by it. :P

Frightening really, I didn't know I was quite so inspirational. :ph34r:

Daily update from our favourite website..... (really i think this deserves its own thread?)

Leicester are set to pay Charlton 1.5 million on matt Holland and jerome thomas. Milan Mandaric 1st Buys.
Leicester to sign Rory Fallon and Lee Trundle for elvis hammond and 1.5 million.
Whilst attending the Leicester Fulham game I overheard a journalist talking to a club official. The word is that Kelly will be kept as manager until the end of the season when his position will be reviewed.
Transfer targets include Holland, who was due to be at the game. They are hoping to use his pompey connections to land O'Brien plus some loan players. Lee Hendrie also remains a target.

In the summer they are hoping to land Gary Speed as a player/coach.

I love this one.....

High places have speculated the return of Muzzy Izzet back to LEICESTER CITY as part of the coaching staff. Local LEICESTER people commented that IZZET'S heart had always been at the club.
Heard at the Fulham/Leicester Match - Milan Mandaric's first act on taking control of Leicester City will be to sign Spanish Defender Manuel Pablo. He fits the profile of the player I expect to see wearing the shirt of LCFC, Milan was heard to say plenty of experience and with the ability to progress with the club as it aims to return to the Premiership where it rightly belongs.
Posted

Thank god, it look slike Neil Shipperley is linked to a deal with Gillingham :D

lol at those rumours. When is Lennon linked to a return with Izzet?!

Its a little alarming that all we have after those 3 departures is some free money for a loan signing!! I cant see it being Matt Holland at this stage as Charlton are fighting to stay up.

I hear Everton want to send Alessandro Pistone on loan after hsi comeback from a year out. Would he be any good as a loan??

Hmmm wonder who posted the Manuel Pablo rumour :whistle:
