More names in the ring

Boss

Our View

John Gregory

While, he is the firmest candidate so far, his appointment would be unwise, as it would not sit well with the Leicester fans, and let's face it - we've been through enough this season.

Dave Bassett

Has not ruled himself out, but again most fans would see this as a backward step, and one to be avoided.

Stuart Pearce

He's believed to have applied. He has little experience, but may work well in the Dennis Wise model of management such as at Millwall.

Craig Levein

Currently manager of Hearts in Scotland, the Scottish press have reported that he is a candidate for the job. I don't know much about him, but look how well Paul Sturrock did for Plymouth ...

Gary McAllister

It's probably too soon for him, but it would be great to see him back at Leicester City (in any capacity)

Steve Cotterill

This would be a bold move, and one that many City fans would appreciate. Cotterill is a successful manager, who's never really had the rub of the green in a bigger club environment. He's had some experience of Leicester City, and (in time honoured fashion) is keeping quiet about the prospects.

Mike Newell

Despite apparently being a fans favourite for the position, it seems unlikely. Luton are confident of keeping hold of him, and why not!
