Might put your mind at rest a little. I tweeted Derek Mcgregor - footy writer for the Scottish Sun this is what he said

He loves everything about it Mike. Really appreciates the fans. As content as I've ever seen him. Certain he'll do very well. Hope he's right

Well, he hasn't been sacked. So panic over for now.

Problem they have is not sacking him before the window ended. Not a lot of movement for a new man now - unless you are a Pulis type with an effective system or two up your sleeve to compensate for the lack of talent.

Nobody will save Leicester City from the drop this season - mark my words. So, unless Lenny fancies getting them promoted next season rather than us, why would he move?

 

I know. It's football and normal rules of logic do not apply.

It's the usual 2+2=5 WW hype, conjecture and bullshit.

 

I'm hoping that Lennon does leave us in the future.

This means he'll have done well enough here to have grabbed the attention of what he perceives to be a better place to work.

It will also mean we haven't been shit as we had been under Lee, Megson, Coyle & Freedman, who all had to be sacked.

Because he'd have a bigger transfer budget for one. If they are relegated they'll be one of the favourites to go straight back up for another.

Isn't a guarantee though. And given the Leicester owners don't exactly seem to know what they're doing.

 

Personally I think Leicester is a bad career move for Lennon right now. And were it Hull or Burnley for example I'm pretty sure he'd turn it down for that reason. But Leicester is tricky because of his ties to the club. For that reason only I think it is a worry. However, the longer Leicester leave Pearson in charge the better for us, because I think him moving once they are definitely relegated will be far less likely.

Nor is staying here. The Leicester owners have stuck with Pearson through thick and thin, so any manager knows they're going to get time to do the job.

No. But we gave him a chance when others wouldn't. Moving too much and too soon can kill a managers career dead. I'm hoping that the Scottish Journalist who knows Lennon is right when he says Leicester sounded him out on the quiet and he said no. If so that might explain why Pearson is still in a job? Can't get a replacement?

Last week we were in a 'relegation battle'. This week our manager might be leaving for a position that isn't even vacant yet. What next?

We'll have to wait and see what anewman comes up with
