Mandaric won't be rushed

Leicester City chairman Milan Mandaric hopes to have a new manager in place before the Foxes' next game against Bristol City on November 24.
City have struggled since Gary Megson left last month to become Bolton's new manager, and Saturday's home defeat to Burnley left the club 17th in the Championship table having won only three of their 15 games so far this season.
Mandaric told the Leicester Mercury: "Things are not good, but I am not going to panic.
"I am giving myself time to think because this is a crucial decision, and when I come back (from the USA at the weekend), I hope to have the answer.
"I do still have a short-list of two or three and they will be considered and there is always the possibility of managers who are with clubs at the moment.
"As I have said before, any approach to a club would be confidential as I do not want to destablilise that club.
"But the main thing is to get our new manager, the right manager and some new players of quality.
"There are still enough games left in the season to prevent it going to waste, and I will go away and decide what happens next and do all I can to do the right thing."
