If we can't sack RVN before June to comply with PSR can we at least put him in Gardeners Leave and let someone who'll actually play the players most likely to be here next season, ideally with a focus on youth, be in charge?

I am under the impression that Ruud is so keen to talk to the board because he's after his relegation bonus. Someone (probably Rudkin) messed up when writing the new contracts for the manager and players and inserted a bonus for going down and a 20% wage increase, with an option to extend their contract. It's the only explanation for the teams RVN puts out each week and why more than half the team are playing like they couldn't give a toss, or are completely inept.

Don't you mean "when" we beat Liverpool?

Not seen this one mentioned anywhere. I don't often post these even when I find them first, but I've seen him and he wasn't terrible that time. Not suggesting it's all too reliable, but it got me thinking. Would this be our first Avenger? https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/leicester-city-interested-winger-dubbed-10105991

I'm beginning to worry you might be right...

Damn it. I wish I'd done this months ago. I had no money left for my FF team so put Faes in, as the last placed sub, just because I could afford him and knew he'd play. First time he's been in my team and will never be among the starting 11, just because I couldn't afford anyone else. Why oh why didn't I do that sooner?

Mads Faes Coady Thomas Justin Soumare N'didi Kristiansen Daka Khannouss Vardy It's the only way to go.....

Wrongly. I thought I'd clear up any ambiguity for you.

I was right ... wish I wasn't.

2? Mods. Someone is spamming.

Do you promise?

This is so cruel. The weekend over, but our misery this week prolonged to Monday.

I think you're being overly negative here. We should be having positive titles to reward moments of rarity this season. Things like: Award for the full back who made a forward pass. Award for the defender who tracked their man. Award for the player who had a shot on target. (Although if we can't find anyone for this, maybe: Award for the player who attempted any kind of shot). Award for the pensioner who lasted the full game. There must be at least one player who did some of these things once this season, maybe 🤔

A shot on target

I'd have loved us to just give the kids a go at this point. But RVN seems to have dismissed that idea so more of the same I guess...

You think we might get relegated?

And the manager less tactically inept?

Under 18s team maybe. That's why RVN won't let them play. They don't understand his game plan.

Let's try: Mads Faes Coady Thomas Justin Soumare N'didi Kristiansen Daka Khannouss Vardy It'll be the last thing anyone expects ...

Not this season the way we're going. Especially when we start taking our forwards off to replace them with midfielders who've barely got any game time in recent weeks / months. But the main reason is we can't get a shot on target regardless of who we play. Our best bet at scoring is some fluke own goal, because it won't be one of our players putting it past the opposition keeper.

My above post is a little harsh on Coulibaly who I've not seen enough of yet. Oh and the manager can be the second to leave, (after Rudkin!)

I can see it being hard to keep hold of Bilal if ... sorry when we get relegated, but he's someone I'd prefer we keep. Fatawu too, even coming off a big injury. Still have a soft spot for Pereira (and if I'm honest N'didi too). Vardy might still offer something in the championship, but for the amount we'd save on his wages we may be better investing elsewhere. (Sad as it is to say that). I'd love to keep Mads but think that's even more unlikely than Bilal. Rest can do one. Whatever we can get for them. Rebuild, focusing on young, hungry raw diamonds, who we can sell on for huge profits and won't be on a high wage. Hope we go back at first time of asking, a leaner, younger, but hungrier team, who'll give a much better account of themselves than the shambles we have there now.

We should start preparing for next season by playing the kids as others have said on here. They can't be worse than whatever team we put out each week, and they might surprise everyone by playing with a freedom and confidence lacking in our regular starters.

Not sure we can even manage that this season! Especially since RVN took over.

We might win a game .... next season
