YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU’RE DOING

Lineker swipe after Foxes sack boss Shakespear­e

- BY NEIL MOXLEY

GARY LINEKER launched a scathing attack on Leicester City’s “ineptitude” after Craig Shakespear­e (left) was axed.

The former Foxes legend hit out at the decision-makers at

the King Power, after the 53-yearold’s four-month tenure as manager came to an abrupt end yesterday. Referencin­g the club’s title triumph, Lineker tweeted: “It was a miracle, but it is even more remarkable really, given the ineptitude of those that run the club.” Shakespear­e had little inkling of his fate, after turning up at the club’s training ground just nine hours after leaving the King Power, following a 1-1 draw against West Brom on Monday night.

He watched a behind-closeddoor­s friendly against Nottingham Forest, but was called into a meeting afterwards with director of football Jon Rudkin, and given his cards.
