As fans we are in for the ride; championship, league 1, league 2 even..at some point we'll be back in the PL. Probably at worst inside 10-15 years...even hailed as a 'sleeping giant' - the myth tends to grow the longer you are away. Meanwhile, KP will have spanked 10 years of brutally hard work, love, tears, joy and hundreds of millions of pounds and lost a club they adored....and left with playing Polo with minor royals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davieG Posted 2 October 2022 Share Posted 2 October 2022 https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/brendan-rodgers-staff-leicester-city-7654244 Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers has revealed visits to hospices and taking his staff away for a few days helped put things ‘into perspective’ and ‘break the cycle’ of the club’s Premier League struggles. City are currently bottom of the Premier League but have the chance to climb above Nottingham Forest when the Reds visit the King Power Stadium on Monday (8pm kick-off). City go into the game having lost each of their last six league matches, while Forest have lost their last four. The club’s position has led to questions being asked about Rodgers’ future, but the Northern Irishman will be in the dugout on Monday as he looks to turn the season around. “It was a chance to put things into perspective,” he said. “There is a children’s hospice and an adults’ hospice. Life is put in perspective there. You think you suffer in football and you do in terms of results but it is much bigger than that. “I (also) took the senior staff for a couple of days after the Tottenham game to go and reflect and talk and play a bit of golf. I took them to Loch Lomond and played a couple of days there which was very nice. I enjoyed that and it breaks the cycle. It is also key as I know that you can’t isolate yourself. “We all have bad moments in whatever it is but the key is to not go and be on your own. It is so important. We had a nice couple of days there and were back in here for some work.” Ahead of the game against Forest, Rodgers said he understands supporters’ frustrations but insisted he is up for the challenge of turning the season around. “The supporters have every right not to be pleased,” he added. “It’s the challenge for clubs like ourselves to be fighting for European football. For that there has to be constant improvement. It’s always going to be a huge challenge but one I relish.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudio Fannieri Posted 2 October 2022 Share Posted 2 October 2022 They probably spent the 2 days trying to work out what more they can do wrong to get the sack and their handsome pay off. We have conceded 11 in last 2 games and lost 6 in a row, they must be gutted to be back at the drawing board again trying to work out if Plan B is to leave a steaming turd in each of Top’s car, Whelan’s handbag and Rudders desk drawer as there only chance of an exit 😂 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza M Posted 2 October 2022 Share Posted 2 October 2022 Can go on as many away days to refresh the batteries as they like. That won't make you suddenly understand how to set up a team and organise the defence.

As per your first interview here - it's the expectation. He's still undermining and downgrading the vision of the club.

There fans went mental that he left to come here They may have been, but a lot of them could see them going backwards. They also had had enough of his keep ball borefest tactics. I think you will find most of the Celtic moans where not because he had gone. But because they see us as a much smaller club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all anyone has to go on when judging anyone. Brendan’s words and actions are there for all to see. How else do we assess people? My opinion is that he is a self-serving snot of a man. That opinion has been formed listening to the man, reading his words and watching his performances. I’m not advocating cancelling him like some woke leftist bellend, just his contract. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your points are valid, but he doesn't help himself when it comes to being humble with the fans and our club. I think a lot of fans were quite shocked during this last few months, he has become self serving and lacked class at times, and yes other managers do it, but on the scale of Rodgers, I don't think so. Yes judge him on his football results and don't get personal, but please don't tell me that this manager isn't at the top of the pile for drivel and stolen words of wisdom. You see the true character of person when things are not going well, he has turned once supportive fans(me included) against him by his "it is not me guv" routine! Admit you've made mistakes and face up to problems that you are part of, or helped create, then fans would be more understanding and maybe in some cases a bit forgiving! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admit you've made mistakes and face up to problems that you are part of, or helped create, then fans would be more understanding and maybe in some cases a bit forgiving! He actually keeps on saying the responsibility is mine....He said more times before Christmas,the teams errors are my responsibility to turn around, now & during the season... And these last few weeks ditto... Too much over analysing of interviews. Like all managers, he will support & then shout out their mistakes if they ain't learning... The rest are explanations.. Either of team situation, Club situation, Support from club, Quality of squad...all which is his right.. He has never denied his responsibility & failure which again he has stated several times... This idea of twisting and turning is coming from fans wanting blood. His branch is full of moment in time, Winners & losers..At the moment he's on a downer,but quite unfair to deny he hasn't taken on responsibility for his failings in getting his ideology & system over... He has to my knowledge at least twice apologised to the fans,but conveniently gets forgotten... He/any person can't keep saying sorry in various & different ways to appease fans. Of course he's questioned the squad. Of course he's questioned the club... Of course he's questioned individual players.. But how many times (every week) must he say,the responsibility lies at his feet.. We are making more and pushing his actions to the grotesque built on fans lack of expected appeasement...that he has delivered, but turned and twisted to Lynch-mob effect... sorry telling me from some quarters that you can tell a man by his words....not if you twist them to fit your groups agenda...and it's happening here. Fans refusing to believe his spoken word,because it fits their dislike of the guy... I refuse to join in...FFS get rid of any manager for lack of achievement,but not because one desire to take different perspectives of what he has said or not said.. If wrong I will defer,but point out word for word where he has spoken with forked tongue.. Edited 2 October 2022 by fuchsntf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
