Blanchflower78 Posted 22 September 2022 Share Posted 22 September 2022 He clearly has lost interest, all media interviews show a defeated man with no passion or anger. The club clearly have decided that relegation is more manageable than losing Rodgers early enough to fight it. Personally, almost a resigned feeling to relegation after only 7 games, sad times.

Vestan Pance Posted 22 September 2022 Share Posted 22 September 2022 I might try taking the p1ss at work for the next 12 months, just to see how this "credit in the bank" works for those of us in the real world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knows he's very lucky to still be here, and am sure harsh words have been discussed with him. Only he can change, and I give him the benefit of the doubt for the Forest game. Good god man you must be a very poor judge of character! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vazman Posted 22 September 2022 Share Posted 22 September 2022 4 hours ago, Crinklyfox said: I haven't read every page of this thread so apologies if this has been suggested before. We can't afford to sack BR, so we don't. We don't have the money but the killer is that we will lose a small fortune if relegated. To avoid relegation we need someone else taking charge of the team, so we put BR on gardening leave with no input to the club. We then appoint a 'Director of Football' with a different job description which includes taking charge of the team in the absence of the manager. We should be able to finance this in the short term and BR would probably disappear at the first opportunity before his obscurity becomes permanent. Yeah this has been suggested 816 times already or something like that, no problem though you haven't missed anything, he is still kicking around the place, making things worse and getting paid handsomely for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Renard Posted 22 September 2022 Share Posted 22 September 2022 Are the board blind, what credit does he have in the bank? I fail to see it, Claudio had more credit in the bank, so that doesn't make any sense. The board must be able to see that we are about as inspiring as a dog turd at the moment under Rodgers. They must realise that he's burnt his bridges and there is no way back for him with most of the supporters. Are the the board so cut off in their ivory tower that they don't see or feel the anger of the fans? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BluethroughtheMiddle Posted 22 September 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 22 September 2022 (edited) Dont shoot me.. Yes his recent form as manager has been shit. But he hasn't had the ability to strengthen/update the squad as he wanted. Top is a fan of loyalty no doubt and there's something to be said for that! Ferguson had some very bad early years before it came together If we get demoted I'm sure he will be gone, until then, I think he will be here, trying to make it work. It's very, very frustrating for us but... We ain't a top 5 team. We shouldn't be a bottom 5 team either. Let's see.

Tuna Posted 22 September 2022 Share Posted 22 September 2022 Best scenario for the football club is that Rodgers turns it round, they're gambling on that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daggers Posted 22 September 2022 Share Posted 22 September 2022 Honestly, I think the best scenario for the club currently is that a sad young man gets reunited with his inflatable dinosaur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't even realise he's the problem and he's shown no flexibility in the whole time he's been here. The only thing that's changed is his salary The biggest (and only) reason I want him gone is that we're bottom, we're playing crap, and it doesn't look like he's able to fix it. It would make no difference to me if he was the most flexible and self-aware manager ever. Similarly, I wouldn't give a toss about him being a bit of a knob if we were up the top end of the table and playing some lovely stuff. Indeed, I didn't give a toss about it when those things were true. And I don't now. All I want is the team I support to be good. I don't hate him; it's just as clear as day that it's time someone else had a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew we were wank then. Given how good we know this squad can be, it’s shameful the position we are in as fans. Wasted on dunces like Rodgers and his senile back room ‘staff’. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing we’re much better than this and we’re being killed slowly makes it worse. We were wank then and we knew it. Guardiola wouldn’t have turned that ship around.
