ROB FEARS HE IS MAN FOR CHOP
FULHAM v LEICESTER, TONIGHT, 7.45PM
By James Nursey
LEICESTER boss Rob Kelly is praying he is not the first casualty of Milan Mandaric's imminent takeover.

Former Portsmouth owner Mandaric, 68, is hopeful of completing a £25million deal for the Midlands club before Saturday's Championship home game with leaders Birmingham.

But Kelly, whose side visit Fulham tonight for their FA Cup replay, has received no assurances about his future with the Foxes 18th in the league.

And the former Blackburn coach admits he is braced for a "thunderbolt" from Mandaric, who is thought to prefer a higher-profile manager like Iain Dowie.


Kelly, in charge a year since succeeding Craig Levein, said: "I am sure Milan Mandaric has done his background stuff and will have a plan.


"In football you get a few thunderbolts which you don't see coming.


"But my background will probably help me. I have done every job in a football club. It does give you a grounding, a perspective.


"Early on the speculation coincided with us having a dip in form. But things like this work at a much higher level than mine."

Shoud be ok for a bit of sweeping up then, or maybe some new lines in the car park.

The good thing about Kelly is his honesty about himself.

The bad thing is that nothing he says indicates that he sees himself as a football manager - it all comes across as I'm a sort of coach who happened to get the manager's job.....at a bad time for the club.

I'm not at all sure about Dowie.....the stories about his tenure at Charlton don't sound good to me, even allowing for media exageration.

I'm hoping that MM can do a bit better than Dowie although it's not going to be easy given the re-building necessary at all levels.

Perhaps we might end up with this bloke ... looks like he might be available soon
