Leicester continue manager search
By Sarah Holt
Craig Levein
Levein lost 26, drew 26 and won 20 of his 72 games in charge of Leicester
Leicester are still "some way" from finding a replacement for sacked manager Craig Levein, club chairman Jim McCahill has told BBC Sport.
Levein's 14-month spell in charge ended on 25 January with the Foxes facing relegation from the Championship.
"We are some way away yet from making a decision," McCahill said.
"By the end of next week we hope to be concentrating on the last two or three recommended candidates but I can't comment on any individuals."
Burnley boss Steve Cotterill has turned down an approach from Leicester while Preston did likewise when their manager Billy Davies was targeted.
Notts County manager Gudjon Thordarson, QPR boss Ian Holloway and Luton manager Mike Newell have all been linked with the post.
The former Blackburn coach lost his first two games at the helm but saw the Foxes take a vital three points at QPR.
If Kelly builds up a run of results, McCahill said he could find himself in the position over the long-term.
"We mustn't forget Rob Kelly is doing a good job," said McCahill.
"We've not ruled out Rob continuing to the end of the season with extra support from an experienced coach or manager.
"The longer results go our way the more it takes away the urgency of making an appointment.
"However, from the time Craig left our priority has been to preserve our Championship status and we know we need to sort the manager's position out."

PFKAKTF FOX said:Sorry mate, but there is no way I would give that Guy a chance here, he is a disgrace, I do not want to see our club dragged through anymore shit and after witnessing one of the most disgraceful cheating and thuggish performances then there is no way I want to see him here, the guy is a cuuuuunnnnnt and a tvvat.
By the way how's it going mate, has the joint application been submitted to Timmy yet ?
Duzza said:It's in. Thrown there plan in to turmoil apparently. Interview is Tomorrow if you can mame it?? Tim said to meet him and Jim at 'Company' in Dublin. Bit of a strange one but I guess they want to keep it hush hush. :icon_roll
PFKAKTF FOX said:Which bit do they want to keep quiet, the fact there we are in for the job, or the fact that they regularly visit the fetish nights at above mentioned establishment ?
Fox From The Hudd said:I can understand the feelings towards Holloway but if the unthinkable happens what are we going to do support someone else???
You know you won't be able to give up the drug that is football and the "pleasure" you get from supporting you team so we'll just have to grin and bear it and get ready to either eat humble pie or take pleasure in saying I told you so..
As a kid I hated the idea of Gordon Milne but he turned out ok...
