Looks like they just don’t care about the ladies team

Women's team.  Leicester City Women.  Clue's in the name.

Lord knows what the players must think of all this. Real shame what has happened with our womens team who looked like they could challenge top half until Kirk and whomever took the selfish decision that they did. Doesn't help the fans that once again the club falls silent on what they are doing about this mess. Hardly motivating the fan base to turn up in numbers for the coming season. We could quite easily find ourselves relegated after all the work that's been done. 

 

Sound familiar??

People get there knicker in a twist, season doesn't kick off until the mid September.

I think the problem is that this has been going on since the middle of last season, whilst the teams on pitch performance was capitulating. September kick off or not we still have no manager let alone a sniff of bringing in new talent. That is very concerning.

Two different issues.

 

Club was left in a dreadful position by Kirk, and a little blindside.

 

I can understand why they didn't appoint mid-season knowing they were safe.

 

Now is the time to get the right person.

 

I suspect we have someone in late July.

Amandine Miquel for me. Thoughts?

Seems to have a reputation for developing players, which could be important for us.

 

We need to get a conveyer belt of players coming thought and develop more of our own.

 

Not sure what style of football she plays to be honest.

 

But we do need to really try and kick on, seems 2 step forward, 1 step back at the moment.

[Lineker's Lugs]

Unless Palace overhaul their squad - and so far it appears they've just been renewing contracts - they should be firm favourites for relegation and Leicester should be ok for another year.  2025/26 would be a different matter as I'd expect Newcastle to be in WSL and they will take it seriously.  Leicester's best hope then might be an expansion to the league which has to happen at some point as a 22 game season and 1 (often very predictable) relegation spot isn't great.

 

On the managerial front I wonder if Leicester have been sidetracked by Casey Stoney becoming available.  I doubt she'd be interested but it would be remiss of them not to investigate the possibility.  Might be a short conversation though!  Around 10 weeks until the new season, so they've still got a couple of weeks to make an appointment before it becomes a problem.

New manager is close to being announced I’ve heard, not a clue who it is though. 
Only players I’ve heard linked is Ale and Mace. 
Not sure a trip to Australia is the best idea either, need players in, only have 4 midfielders at the club, one of them Pelgander who has barely played.

Going to be a long season I think. 

[SK3Blue]

Remi Allen new manager of Southampton. The wait goes on….

Janice Cayman just scored an own goal for Belgium

Amandine Miquel is believed to be the new manager, the hold up is that they are waiting on Work Permit/Visa clearance before the announcement can be made. She will be joined by Amaury Massuwe who is her assistant at Reims and Tom Pressman as GK coach who has joined from Aston Villa

LCFC Women Backroom Staff Confirmed
LCFC WOMEN

LCFC Women can today confirm the appointment of two additional members to Amandine Miquel's backroom staff ahead of the 2024/25 Barclays Women's Super League campaign.
- Two additions to Amandine Miquel's backroom staff confirmed
- Amaury Messuwe joins the Football Club as Assistant Manager
- Goalkeeping Coach Tom Pressman to lead the Goalkeeping department
- Backroom staff to also include Jennifer Foster and Stephen Kirby

Amaury Messuwe joins the Football Club as Assistant Manager and will work alongside current Assistant Manager Jennifer Foster in support of Amandine as she commences her first season in English football.

The UEFA A licence coach makes the move to King Power Stadium with a wealth of First Team experience having supported Amandine as Assistant Coach at Stade de Reims since his appointment to the role in 2018.

Under their guidance, Reims secured promotion to the French Première Ligue in 2019 and have remained in the top-flight ever since.

Goalkeeping Coach Tom Pressman also joins to further bolster the Club's coaching department ahead of the new campaign. He makes the move to Leicestershire with elite-level experience having most recently spent three years with Aston Villa in the WSL.

Tom will combine his new position at Belvoir Drive alongside his role as Women's Senior Goalkeeping Coach with the Wales Football Association.

Jennifer Foster and Stephen Kirby will continue in their respective roles of Assistant Manager and First Team Coach as the Foxes look to continue their progression within the top flight of English football.

[TheLittleBigMan]

Very very good appointment. We've done well to get her in. 

Big yes from me.

She never really impressed last season imo. Seemed to look a bit lost out there. Still, we have the right manager in place to support younger players so I hope she proves me wrong.
