Mandaric dismisses Davies rumours

Leicester City chairman Milan Mandaric has rubbished rumours that former Derby boss Billy Davies will replace Ian Holloway as manager.

Davies has been out of work since leaving the Rams in November, but Mandaric says he has faith in Holloway, despite his trigger-happy reputation.

"This is the time for trust," Mandaric told BBC Radio Leicester.

"Ian's our manager and has full support from all of us. I'm urging supporters not to listen to speculation."

Holloway took over at the Walkers Stadium a week before Davies left Pride Park.

But Mandaric insists the former Plymouth boss has nothing to worry about, despite the fact they are hovering just above the relegation zone and have lost their last three games.

"We have a good enough team and manager to stay up and start to work and think about the next season," Mandaric added.
