Again.... BRENDAN RODGERS IS STAYING UNTIL THE WORLD CUP AT LEAST. No ifs buts or maybes they wont sack him, he wont leave so stop dreaming and fantasising. If they were going to sack him he'd be gone already, if he were going to leave ditto. Here endeth the truth (and us in the EPL) Everyone stop discussing it J.

Brooksy Posted 18 September 2022 Share Posted 18 September 2022 54 minutes ago, Bluetintedspecs said: I seriously don't get how you or anyone can have this train of thought about the board? Let's assume they were losing interest or planning to sell, please explain how wanting the team to go down helps them sell it? More to the point why would they want that considering the countless millions they've invested into the infrastructure and development of the club? I truly am open to the reasons justifying your comment. Exactly. Makes the decision to keep him all the more baffling. We're only headed one way with him in charge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 18 September 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 18 September 2022 9 minutes ago, Dames said: Because we are unbelievably skint. To the point that even with the Fofana money we are in a position where we can’t afford to pay Rodgers off. He will stay until we are deep in a relegation scrap because there is something in the books that has this board scared stiff. Doesn't add up, they didn't want to sell Fofana and they rejected low ball bids for Soumare, Praet, Iheanacho, Maddison and Castagne. I was told we needed to raise £80m this summer but we didn't do and weren't planning on selling Fofana until next summer at the earliest so I don't know what on earth they are up to. Not sacking Brendan isn't to do with money. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The spending limits only disallow us from competing in Europe. They can’t stop us sacking him. But **** it. I’d take an instant demotion into the Championship—swapping our position with Watford—if only to jettison Brendan Rodgers forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if we breach them we just get banned from Europe for a year or so? When we won't be playing there anyway as it is? Apologies as I'm sure this will have been gone over a thousand times on here but I've just not looked.

Ric Flair Posted 18 September 2022 Share Posted 18 September 2022 I haven't heard anything I'm just making an educated guess based on what Percy said yesterday and he usually does an article Sunday evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We must have hit some sort of bottle neck with the finances. It's so so strange, I thought it was because they no longer trusted him and wanted to force him out but sadly that's probably a pipe dream. Regardless, he is going in the not so distant future, every additional game they fail to act is hugely risky and heads will roll if they get this wrong.

Popular Post Matt Posted 18 September 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 18 September 2022 (edited) It's the hope that kills you.

Not sacking Brendan isn't to do with money. I’d agree with this. If it is money related, more of a principle of paying him than physically not being able to? If that was the case, surely the game of chicken is going too far now…. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMELcfc Posted 18 September 2022 Share Posted 18 September 2022 We will know tomorrow… but club announcing it but there will be stories written if he’s gone. If there’s nothing then he’s here for good and we are going down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeaMen Tom Posted 18 September 2022 Share Posted 18 September 2022 1 hour ago, JonnyBoy said: He’s not going is he I logged on today expecting to read about his sacking. Hopefully it's being negotiated and gets announced on Monday. Keeping him now means the board doesn't mind relegation - and that message sifts through the entire organization so it's likely to be self-fulfilling.
