Unfortunately, the fear is that wouldn't even get him the sack (which would probably be good enough for me and lots of others atm) It reminds me of when puel nearly convinced us vardy was a busted flush already and a change gave him the jump start back to life. I dont necessarily believe that is the case with vardy anymore (however 🤞) with him being even older now, but feel that it should be the case for the vast majority of our squad. He has managed to convince us the whole squad is shite bar maddison (undeniable though it is, that he has definitely made it worse in his tenure) but somebody last night in match thread agreed it was easily the best side available. I did ask if he genuinely believed that with a side including perez and Albrighton in attacking positions with iheanacho and vardy on the bench. (With a caveat that I do understand that Vardy was unlikely to manage 3 games in such a short period), but did not receive a reply. Just think people have become brainwashed into his way and forgotten that it is possible to play with 2 up top. Best team in his shite systems maybe, but a good manager should.make the best use of what he's got, not shoehorn inferior players into his "ideals" 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ouch that sucks! It'd be great to have someone wipe that off of books! I would imagine that it would free up a lot of weekly salary potential though along with the players going over the next 2 windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Sol thewall Bamba Posted 11 January 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 11 January 2023 Not a sniff of him being under any pressure at all. I'd love to know if the club are even considering relegation as a possibility seeing as a lot of the people culpable for this mess would be in line to lose their jobs when we go down. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lcfc-1992 Posted 11 January 2023 Share Posted 11 January 2023 I’d love us to put him on gardening leave if we can’t afford to sack him. The damage it would do to his ego if Stowell came in and started to turn it around 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Sionnach Posted 11 January 2023 Share Posted 11 January 2023 He has adopted a policy of blaming the owners for lack of financial support . It will be interesting to see how much criticism they will take without acting. I am sure he wants out but he knows they do not want to pay him and his team off. He would indeed take them to court for breach of contract if they tried to remove him without paying him up the full amount. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason to believe they will behave any differently to the summer window. I presume the strategy is get through the window, maybe get lucky with a cheap signing, try to steady the ship, get players back from injuries and try to be safe by the end of the season. Although he is a condescending ***t, he picks his words very carefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe someone has done some sums somewhere and said 'you know what, it's cheaper to drop down and rebuild from there, with parachute money, than it is to go into the transfer market for a Prem quality squad and pay Prem wages' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The turgid football we play now doesn't suit any striker, just wait. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recruitment, when we do it, is poor. Players who helped surge us to victory are now well past their prime. BR is a problem. But he isn't the only one. When you have lots of problems and it all feels too much, just break them down into smaller problems and deal with them one by one. Sack that **** first! And it'll get easier from there.

Imo I doubt any manager would want to do that as essentially they are killing their career as no club would want to take a manager on who had done that to another club in fear of them doing it to them. That's why this stalemate exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
