Fox92 Posted 13 September 2022 Author Share Posted 13 September 2022 If the board want a change then it probably needs to be done soon, because there's two weeks before the Forest game, but I doubt anything will change after Saturday as Spurs are a very good side. If we'd have lost to Villa this weekend then perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vazman Posted 13 September 2022 Share Posted 13 September 2022 I can't believe we're on 1407 pages, at least a minimum of 407 pages too many, on this thread, and I see he is still here, the board must know what they're doing, or just be in plain denial, I just hope the irreversible damage hasnt been done.

Popular Post daddylonglegs Posted 13 September 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 13 September 2022 Has anyone else totally lost enthusiasm about this topic? I have personally wanted Rodgers to not be our manager for about a year or so now. With the exception of Forest away, in that time I never genuinely thought we'd sack him. But then after the start of the season, his comments in the press, & the manner in which we lost at Brighton I felt there was no way he could see another day in the job. Him not getting the boot after Brighton has made me totally give up on the idea that the club will do the right thing before its too late & removed any enthusiasm I have about us at the moment 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took it as an opportunity to switch off. It’s only because I usually find football as an outlet in my life, but with it being so bad and the club seemingly not reacting to it.. it’s just depressing. I’m hoping the club have used this time to assess and research. For me, irrespective of result now he just has to go. Too much has happened that there’s no way back for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

International break is a normal time to make a change. I find the 'wait until the international break' attitude very frustrating. If for example we were to sack him tonight and we were able to get a new manager in for Spurs, OK it wouldn't be ideal in terms of preparation time for the new manager, but they would learn more about the squad seeing them in a game situation a d a couple of training sessions than just in training. We're going to lose to Spurs if he is here anyway! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's difficult to find any enthusiasm about the club at the moment. I'm not interested in any of the games we've got coming up. The fact of the matter is we need a fresh start. The fans know Rodgers time should be over. Even BBC Radio Leicester have said it. Too much has happened for him to turn our fortunes around. We need a new voice and a new approach and we need the owners to show him the exit, before it's too late. I don't care how much it costs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st albans fox Posted 13 September 2022 Share Posted 13 September 2022 In summary we have a coach that doesn’t want to be here we have a squad that (probably) doesn’t want the coach to be here we have a fan base who largely don’t want the coach to be here we have a board who (probably) don’t want the coach to be here and yet we retain the status quo (probably for financial reasons) … 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can they possibly allow this to continue? Sacking Rodgers is not the only thing that needs to happen to turn our fortunes around, but it sure as hell as the first thing that needs to happen. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not lifesize of course I was quite proud of myself that I could think of a situation more torturous than our current one. Actually, John Terry as DOF, Gerard as the manager and Dennis Wise as the chairman. God, our situation is so bad I’m spending my time thinking about BDSM football fantasies for some light relief. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's gone off a cliff quicker than I thought it would but I did eventually think we'd get to around here. If we don't do it soon we will be relegated. This isn't bad form.

International break is a normal time to make a change. Maybe. It perhaps depends upon the manner of the defeat, assuming that's what happens. A narrow loss but a good performance might be okay for BR to survive, whereas an utterly shambolic Brighton-type surrender might just persuade the Board and Top that the humiliation can't continue any longer. I think a lot will depend on the pre-match mindset of our senior players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they aren't going to sack then, I really do worry what it'll take - tells me it'll be something that a new manager might have virtually no chance of recovering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrummieFOX Posted 13 September 2022 Share Posted 13 September 2022 He was able to hide behind injuries last year and didn't bring them up too much because he knew he didn't need to as they were so obvious. Now he has nothing behnd, which is why we've seen the self-preservation comments of late. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they haven’t sacked him on the back of brighton then is reckon they will decide he has a decent chance of three wins from those five games and ten points from 12 games is something to build on !

It's such a reckless belief if that is what they do, because its likely we waste that easy run of fixtures and we've then got to try and get 35-40 points from 25ish games which although not impossible would be a horrible horrible period for the club. Relegation is catastrophic for this club, how on earth has he brainwashed them so much. If a manager who helped achieve the biggest sporting miracle of all time is ruthlessly sacked less than a year later, how is Rodgers held in higher esteem. It is deeply worrying what our board are doing. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
