Holloway and Mandaric: Time to reflect
Leicester City chairman Milan Mandaric hopes to make a decision over manager Ian Holloway's future by the beginning of June.
Holloway's position at the Walkers Stadium is uncertain following the club's relegation to League One.
Mandaric is determined to do 'what is best for the club', and hopes that a period of reflection will assist him in making the correct decision.
"I am not even giving total support to myself. Am I a good chairman or not? It starts with me, and then goes all the way down - including the manager," he told Sky Sports News.
"I think I am entitled to look at that. I am in the firing line, I am responsible.
"I am the one who is going to support the club financially so I will do what is best for the club; not necessarily for Ian Holloway or Milan Mandaric.
"I am looking to make a decision no later than the first or second week of June. You need to give the manager time to review their staff and players. A total reorganisation of the club."
