Having been shocked, and maybe disappointed at the departure of Martin Allen in the week, I've been thinking what could have been the factors that led to him leaving.
We all knows the rumours of the 'rifts' and 'bust-ups' between Milan and Martin, but I am sure, along with many other fans, that there is way more depth to this, and that there is certainly more to this than meets the eye.
So I was thinking - possibly one of the factors that caused him to leave was his "Manager Speaks" updates.
Having enjoyed them myself which included the infamous Alex Ferguson and Steve Bruce joke, and many other stories told by Martin himself, it actually simply devalued the forms of media that are offered to us such as Leicester City World.
Being a subscriber myself, I sometimes felt I had wasted my money on what seemed to be an exclusive way of getting the thoughts of the manager through interviews and after match press conferences.
So maybe the point of Leicester City being a club 'too big' for him, and the communicative Allen was the architect of his own downfall.
