Leicester still predicted champions as best Foxes signing named
In spite of the dreadful mismanagement by Leicester City Football Club's hierarchy over the previous five years or so, the Foxes are still considered a significant force within the division three of English football. Even whilst in the midst of selling off key playing assets and having minimal funds to replace them, LCFC are widely expected to dominate League One this season according to numerous observers and bookmakers.
The situation really borders on negligence when considering chief football officer Jon Rudkin's involvement at King Power Stadium throughout that wild period; naturally, The King Power International Group recognised this string of failures with an infamous promotion rather than a justifiable dismissal from his post. Subsequently, a head coach very few Foxes fans appeared to want arrived on Filbert Way to take charge of the team.
Russell Martin, who initially succeeded then failed drastically at Southampton before suffering complete disaster north of the border during a spell with Rangers, is now the newly controversial manager at LCFC. Though he oversaw an encouraging set of results and development during the preseason schedule overall, typical tactical flaws and familiar irritations associated with Martin's methods are beginning to creep in on the pitch once again as competitive football begins.
Leicester City forecast
With all this peculiarity unfolding contemporaneously, it is rather surprising that so many bookies, pundits, journalists, bloggers and experts have selected the East Midlands outfit as the side most likely to be triumphant in League One this season. Peterborough Today's preview reinforces this widespread belief, placing Leicester firmly at the very top of its projected standings with a five-star rating and odds of 11-4 for the title.

Directly behind the Foxes in the forecast are Plymouth Argyle, who are tipped for automatic promotion under manager Tom Cleverley after a strong run last term, followed closely by Luton Town who possess high expectations. Sheffield Wednesday complete the top four in the predictions, with a new owner and a fresh squad giving them a genuine Play-off chance despite an unbelievably poor campaign the previous season.
