Levein and Leicester part company

mysticsniper · 25 Jan 2006 at 19:43

Leicester have decided to end Craig Levein's tenure as manager of the club because of the side's poor league form.
The Foxes are in the Championship's bottom three after one win in 15 League games, and backroom staff Peter Houston and Kenny Black will also leave.

I just hope we get a suitable replacement that might save us from the dreadded drop

Just a matter of time really, I'm shocked at how bad Leicester have been this season.

I hope Leicester enjoy League One next season.

They have been a different team, all season, It would be so bad if we could get some points from our home matches. It was only a matter of time you can see that Levein couldn't make the grade in the Championship, he run out of ideas, then lost the dressing room.

My problem now is who's gonna take over, there's talk of Peter Reid, and Gary Macalister

Leicester look absolute bereft of confidence and ability at the moment... at least Millwall seem to be moving upwards albeit slowly they're heading in the right direction...

Was he that bad? I don't know much about their current situation other than they appear to be in freefall but when he came it was a pretty hyped up appointment. in other words what was/is going wrong?

Everyone had really high hopes with Levein, as he came on the recommendation on Martin O'Neil. So expectations were tremendous to say the least, I think everyone though he was gonna be the next O'Neil, and produce the wonders and the trophies as well.
