I am surprised he doesn’t have a below Forest or bottom of the table clause in his contract so we can get rid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top trying to set the record as straight as possible... players 'apparently ' not trying hard enough in training.... 😂😂 yes what a mess Surley the only way out of it is to start a fresh with a new manager and get that arrogant **** out of our football club 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Weller 2 Posted 3 September 2022 Share Posted 3 September 2022 Rodgers has to create a narrative for his next job, which in this case is that the board didn’t give him enough money. In a sense it’s true, but it’s also disingenuous because I doubt they ever promised they would. He knew the current financial limitations on the club when he joined and knew he’d have to work within them. Now he’s suggesting he was lied to and either he was naive or he’s just trying to justify the current situation. Having said that he now actively wants to be sacked as continuing in post will damage his future job prospects. The club realise this but also understand that while he remains in post he has a strong incentive to improve things so until the pressure becomes intolerable they’ll let him carry on.

Mr Weller 2 Posted 3 September 2022 Share Posted 3 September 2022 (edited) He will almost certainly be sacked but when the club are ready and have a good succession plan in place. He wants the sack but the club aren’t falling for that. Edited 3 September 2022 by Mr Weller 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Finnaldo Posted 3 September 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 3 September 2022 1 hour ago, The Year Of The Fox said: Absolutely nailed this. Although he should’ve been binned off after Warsaw away. I was concerned after the second successive throwaway of Champions League but was willing to give it a chance, completely fvcking our second EL campaign in as many seasons pretty much put me over too. But Forest is really where any self-respecting Leicester fan should’ve been off the bus. Biggest rivals and we utterly capitulated. Far better side, with much better facilities that should have steam rolled, yet we got absolutely torn apart because the winning difference was that for Forest it was their game of the season and Rodgers couldn’t inspire any pride in the players to perform. I know we’ve lost to them by big margins before, but after we lost 5-1 in 2009 Pearson looked and sounded suicidal, with much less to work with than we have now. His post-match comments included this: “I am the manager and I take the responsibility but now it is all about how we respond” Meanwhile Brendan uttered a load of nonsense about a summer refresh and how his players weren’t good enough, once again in self-preservation mode that’s a given in any interview we see from him at this point. After that match what I realised is any team with the desire and determination to beat us will, we no longer really have much control in games because we don’t have the bottle to win them unless our opposition don’t care (I.e. the last few games of last season). One final point too: I don’t buy this idea he’s been lumbered with all these duffers on long contracts, apart from his own signings I refuse to believe a manager who can request his own signings and have his own men be installed in areas such as head of recruitment and not have his tendrils in contract negotiations. I have no doubt he had final say on any contract extension. This has been telegraphed for an entire season. I’m far from being cynical though, get a fresh manager in then we’ll get playing again and it can be a fairly comfortable midtable season. Just need to dump him before it’s a game of really catching up. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudio Fannieri Posted 3 September 2022 Share Posted 3 September 2022 I think the close turnaround of fixtures and the closure of the transfer window with so much uncertainly surrounding a number of players it would be difficult to sack the manager. However lose tomorrow and I think he will be gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jock2612 Posted 3 September 2022 Share Posted 3 September 2022 I genuinely believe a loss against Brighton & Villa will see BR gone. I think it needs to happen sooner rather than later as he just doesn't seem capable of changing tactics or motivating the squad. The club should also look seriously at replacing the Director of Football . Have never liked JR and I don't believe he is the man to provide Top with the sound advise he needs.

My question is how they will give him before they let him go - and whether it will be too late. We’re still early days in the season obviously, but without a drastic turnaround in form over the next few games we could be struggling. Weirdly despite the awful performances I still don’t get a sense of urgency from the fans. I think a lot seem to be under-estimating how bad a situation we are in.
