Like everyone else ive listened to the guesses of the press and the cows doodos of the kidders on here but now I have a bit of concrete info.
I sit on row kk in sk3 and after the game today in the gents below sk3 was none other than Ian Dowie.
I dont claim to have any inside info or a mole at the club but Dowie wasnt there because he had nothing to do on a bright Sunday afternoon.
It was definitely him--who else but a footie manager sits in the kop in a white shirt and a smart tie?
He came out of the exit where turnstiles 13-16 are and got into a very smart Audi.
Im not saying hes coming as manager and Im not saying I want him but he was there.
When we got to the Soar Point after the game I checked oddschecker and tried to get £20 on him with paddypower at 50/1 but they said the max bet was £17.19 so I bet that.
This is not a speculative rant but an actual sighting--make of it what you will
New man in the kop?

Surely the new manager would be given a seat on the directors area rather than be forced to slum it out in the kop with the real fans?!!
I reckon Dowie has become a Leicester fan and goes to every game now...

Stringer said he was at the ground whist I was listening to radio Leicester at the KP

Maybe it was just a case of mistaken identity. I believe that the film Shrek Five Aside has a football theme, so perhaps they were filming at the KP and you saw the lead taking a pee break…

It could have been his brother, they're almost identical
