By Laurence Cawley BBC News, Leicester A BBC editor accused of breaching Covid rules was "angry" and sought to find the whistleblower, a tribunal heard. The protected disclosure was made in 2021 by the BBC Leicester City reporter Ian Stringer against station editor Kamlesh Purohit. Mr Stringer...

Coady is massively short of match fitness now. He's also liable to be exposed in a wide defensive position just as badly, if not more so, than Faes. It's Coady or Vestergaard and EM made his choice a long time ago. The time has come and gone where we could make such a change.

By Laurence Cawley BBC News, Leicester An arrangement in which the BBC's Leicester City reporter got free leases on a BMW and an Audi were "blatantly wrong", a tribunal heard. Ian Stringer was hired by BBC Leicester in 2008 and sacked in 2022 for what the BBC says was misconduct. An employment...

Does it look like they're playing for him at the moment?

Not at all. We need people who challenge the bullshit that we're asked to believe and you're absolutely within your rights to do so. I'm just not comfortable with going after someone who may actually be vulnerable.

Everybody will have a point at which they've had enough of Aiyawatt and his family. It's absolutely fair enough to need more derogation and decline before you are prepared to go there. Of course they have plenty of credit because they're unquestionably the best owners we've ever had. The...

It's certainly possible that he has tried to play the mental health card during this whole thing. However, it is more likely that he has had genuine struggles as a result of losing his career. He has written about certain people 'saving him'. In a situation such as this, I think the only...

I don't know how else to make the point. If you support the board, you have to accept the structure they are committed to and the people that go along with it. Asking for some change is nonsensical. It isn't going to happen. Whelan and Rudkin are there because that's how Aiyawatt wants it...

Okay. But it's the board that are backing them so the contradiction remains. Aiyawatt has demonstrated over and over that he he won't make the changes you want. Internal review etc. So the changes you are calling for won't happen and you are unequivocal that Aiyawatt must be supported. You...

Laurence Cawley BBC News, Leicester A former BBC sports journalist claims he was unfairly dismissed for whistleblowing. Ian Stringer was employed by BBC Leicester as a sports journalist in 2008 after he appeared on the BBC’s show The Apprentice. An employment tribunal in Leicester heard Mr...

I don't understand your contradiction. The board currently consists of four people; Aiyawatt, his older brother Apichet, Susan Whelan and the mysterious Shilai Lui. In addition, Matthew Phillips was appointed to the board to act as Secretary after the end of last season. You want them to go...

Not only that, but I suspect we'd give him a bumper new contract which we'll have to pay up when we inevitably sack him before Xmas.

Reports from this case will be of interest to a number of us. Ian disappeared from RL rather urgently and never a word was spoken about it. Subsequently, he has gone public about his mental health struggles and there has been plenty of sympathy shown towards him. When the topic of RL or some of...

This is going too far now.
