List of Leicester City F.C. managers

Add article description

Up until Peter Hodge was hired after World War I, Leicester City had no official manager. A nominal role of secretary/manager was employed, though the board and the selection committee took control of most team affairs. It was Hodge who instated a system at the club for the manager having complete control over player and staff recruitment, team selection and tactics. Though Hodge was originally also titled "secretary/manager" he has retrospectively been named as the club's first official "manager".[1]

Former manager Nigel Pearson, who is only the second manager to have managed the club twice.
