HankMarvin Posted 1 October 2010 Posted 1 October 2010 Leicester chairman Milan Mandaric hopes to appoint an "experienced manager" as successor to the sacked Paulo Sousa within the next 48 hours. The Foxes dismissed Sousa this morning following the club's poor start to the season, just three days after Mandaric appeared to have given the 40-year-old Portuguese his backing. But Leicester, currently bottom of the Championship with one win from their first nine league games, are now searching for their ninth manager since Mandaric completed his takeover of the club in 2007, with former boss Martin O'Neill and Sven Goran Eriksson both linked to the vacancy. Mandaric sold the Foxes in August to Vichai Raksriaksorn, the Thai millionaire behind Asian Football Investments, but has stayed on as interim chairman. He said: "It's important we bring in an experienced manager and it's important we complete the process quickly. "We have a short-list of three candidates, all experienced managers, and we have to move quickly after these unfortunate events. "We must do it quickly to satisfy the needs of the team and the supporters' expectations, within the next 48 hours." League Managers Association chief executive Richard Bevan earlier launched a scathing attack on the decision to sack Sousa after less than three months in charge of the club and took a huge swipe at Mandaric's stewardship. Bevan said: "How can a chairman expect to deliver success at a football club when a talented manager is recruited and dismissed within three months, at the start of the season and is given only nine league games to put his own imprint on the squad and the club? "Knee-jerk dismissals and the chopping and changing of managers will not deliver success on the field and is incredibly destabilising to the entire club. "Paulo's sacking is even more disappointing in light of the chairman's comments on Paulo's appointment, in the summer, when he stated he was 'delighted to acquire a manager of such great calibre'. "Leicester City Football Club has had 14 managers since 2004. Clearly the club has to examine its manager recruitment strategy as their current approach does not work. "It is damaging to the club and its fans and is an inappropriate way to treat talented managers and their careers." Sousa, who steered Swansea to eighth place in his first full season in charge at the Liberty Stadium before switching to Leicester in the summer, expressed his disappointment at his dismissal. He said: "To be sacked after being told that there was a long-term strategy at the club and after only nine games in charge is something that I find very surprising." A club statement read: "The decision has been taken as a result of the club's poor run of results this season. "The club would like to state that Paulo Sousa is a first-class individual, but that this decision has been taken in the best interests of the club and our ambitions to move up the npower Championship. "The search for a new manager begins immediately and the club anticipates a quick appointment." Current goalkeeping coach Mike Stowell and coach Chris Powell will take temporary charge of the first team for tomorrow's home match against S****horpe. Sousa was appointed at the Walkers Stadium in July following the departure of Nigel Pearson to Hull at the end of last season after the Foxes reached the play-offs.

Petchy Posted 1 October 2010 Posted 1 October 2010 I cant get radio leicester, could someone sum up whats going on? Pretty much everyone is now changing their opinion of two days ago and saying that they actually liked Sousa and wanted him to stay.. basically just so they get on the radio!
BoneDog Posted 1 October 2010 Posted 1 October 2010 Those legs Dream on youth, Sven's been there so no man has much chance of satisfying Nancy anymore. Sven can cause back spasms in females just by whispering in their ear.

Lillehamring Posted 1 October 2010 Posted 1 October 2010 As long as we don't get cast iron evidence that O'Neill wanted the job and we've gone with Sven, I cannot see how people can be seriously disappointed with the appointment of Sven. You simply cannot argue with his achievements at a much higher level than us. It's right to be mildly concerned that he has no experience in the lower leagues in English football, but who cares that he hasn't managed an nPC team? the club, for the first time in years have legitimate expectations of being a top club. all these tits that were saying sack sousa and bring in someone to ensure survival - fuck survival, we want someone who can manage us at a top level, this is why pearson was never going to be the man for us, he's ok to get teams out of league 1, or midtable/playoffs in the nPC, but would never have been good enough for the prem, not for years anyway- sven will be an amazing acquisition, that once again shows just how ambitious our new owners are compared to mandaric's cautious mentality. these are exciting times to be a city fan, things are starting to change beyond all recognition. i mean - junior lewis, josh low - fuck me we're talking about sven here!

Nice one... got a good feeling about tomorrow.. Scunny could be in for a good hiding. The future is bright the future is Sven!!
easilee Posted 1 October 2010 Posted 1 October 2010 They are really pushing for city fans to phone in to Talksport. Making out that Milan is some kind of saint and that no one has any idea why Pearson LEFT! Can't be arsed to wait 20 mins to get on though. Fookers know how to wind a bloke up enough to want to ring in. Never realised Danny Kelly got chucked out of Leic Uni. Must have been a right thick coont. Anyway he says tell Sven the nightlife is much better in London but if he takes the Leicester job at least Nottingham is Half an hour away. True, but what a bastud.
scott_gunnell Posted 1 October 2010 Posted 1 October 2010 You would think also that Sven would be able to quell the discontent among our better players too....if those rumours are true. Did anyone buy into Stringer and Alan Young saying that our "spirited" performance (i.e. losing again) means that the squad are still playing for the manager? Uber tosh... Sven notoriously turned a selfish ivory coast team playing for themselves into a team at lightening speed. Their previous manager was he would never do it but he did. He is a fantastic diplomat and that’s one of his many skills. He doesn’t like negative talk and never put up with it whilst with England and all his other teams. Droga and Co wanted him to stay but he wants club football plus they cant afford him.
scott_gunnell Posted 1 October 2010 Posted 1 October 2010 HONESTLY? how well do u think Erikson will do for us? maybe Survival i reckon but hope he proves otherwise Well, judge him by facts as a manager and you will do more than survivie in that league. Judge by history and it should be exsiting.
