Leicester now have that choice between looking for a manager who has experience of the PL relegation battle or looking for a manager who has experience of getting promoted from the Championship.

The former would give them the greater chance of staying up this season, but probably a lesser chance of getting back up next season should they fail to stay up. And after all, just having a "greater chance" doesn't mean that it will actually happen.

I can't see Martin O'Neill wanting to leave Ireland (he's one of the leading favourites), but getting him on board until May could save Leicester from needing to make the above choice. Get him in as an interim manager until the end of the season. It would allow him to continue with Ireland, and allow Leicester to wait and see what is in store for them next season before making a permanent appointment.

Like most of the season


yep. Did make me laugh when the commentators said at the end that this exemplifies LVG's Man UTD - they somehow manage to pick up points even when they are not playing well ... we would have to because we never play well anymore!
