kiwiturk Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 The greedy, money crazed, egotistical football coach and incompetent owner holding hands singing Kumbaya and pulling us down together. This is how I see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have some personal interest in the city of Porto (for the get’s on well with owners info or at least got on well with). This isn’t in the know at all, it’s just someone who I’m surprised hasn’t been mentioned more on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Col city fan Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 Just been watching Sunderland Till I Die again on Netflix. The relegation from the Championship. It ain’t half made me worried. Our plight is not yet of that magnitude, but I fear this could herald the end of our magnificent decade. Like Sunderland, we are going into games just not believing we can win them. Forest was a great example of that. We have to find some confidence from somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're boring, at least add something valid to the discussion. & now ? It's tough, being wrongside of a big call like this & so publicly too, I get that, but don't be so embittered, that's just the pride messing your head. Brendan is a busted flush & you couldn't see it, that's all. Even with the pattern of past jobs repeating almost exactly, you still didn't twig but on & up etc. Good lad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post chris_lcfc_85 Posted 17 January 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 17 January 2023 Am i literally the only fan that is currently 50/50 about Rodgers? Dont get me wrong, he's lost all appetite for it and he's clearly not over enthused by the job currently but his hands are completely tied..... All a new manager will do in the short term is potentially galvanise the players that are here and actually fit. We may see a brief uplift in form. However, long term, doesnt matter who comes in, you simply cant polish a turd! We have mountains of issues at the club that arent Rodgers fault Bottom line is, im not against a change but all i'd say is be careful what you wish for 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A manager earning in the region of £10m and has effectively checked out and downed tools, we have a squad devoid of confidence and a number of players that have been frozen out or regressing under stale and stubborn tactics. We have scored 1 goal in our last 5 games against premier league opposition, losing all 5 games. We are turning up to games at present and literally waving a white flag, we have not won a game in which we have conceded this season. We have such a weak mentality and this comes from the Manager, a change would lift the whole club and playing squad, however what the board have to do is make sure that the interim management team and then the subsequent permanent team are fully aligned and buy into the vision of the club and how we want to move forward.

I dont disagree with any of that btw, hence why i also said i wasn't against a change..... He HAS to be doing better/more totally but he's frustrated/angry because his hands are tied. A new manager will be totally the same if the board dont back him up. As i say, short term i believe a change could be good but its longer term that im looking at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next manager markets tend not to attract huge stakes and if you look at the Betfair exchange there is often little liquidity in these markets. I presume that right now this entire market is skewed by Lampard and Moyes whos teams play each other next. Oh, that and Brendan is a slimy shape-shifting management consultant who is untouchable and can get away with anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His signings are clogging up the squad and nobody wants them.
