Being Rodgers out. Being critical of the owners. Calling the players out for their shit IS supporting the club. I wouldn’t be happy with a 2 points over 2 games against Brentford even in League One. There’s this group of fans who have this weird obsession/loyalty towards Top/Brendan and will let them sell the club to Notts County, redevelop the stadium as a ice rink and charge them £90 a week to just be associated with the club - I guarantee you these same fans will be sat there screaming SUPPORT THE CLUB. Their loyalty is to Top and Brendan This is what he's done to large parts of the fanbase - genuinely made out like we're a Bournemouth, Huddersfield level club and one that's lucky to even be here. If any of this bullshit was true he'd never have cme here in the first place. This relegation would be as big a disgrace as Everton going - probably worse given what we've recently achieved. I could almost live with a shocker of a season if it was being treated as such, but large parts of the fanbase just seem OK with it. If we survive they still deserve virtually an empty ground for a lap of 'honour' and if we're relegated they deserve substantially worse. There's no plucky underdog here. Relegation would be a complete and utter disgrace. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityfanlee23 Posted 21 March 2023 Share Posted 21 March 2023 This needs to be true, I can just see the fraud getting straight on the phone to his agent to put his name forward so he can get himself out of this mess before relegating us, and it will finally get Top to find the replacement we should have had months ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My perception of things is that the club seems to have clawed a bit of power back with new player acquisitions so hopefully there is a chance we'll get some half decent players in as the January window showed it was possible (I've not given up on Tete just yet, I just don't think Rodgers tactics and setup play to his and quite a few others strengths) However we may still have to put up with the BrendanBall even with the new crop of players, (oh fooking joy on that front, I so can't wait to be bored to death for yet another season) and all of his personality traits of being an arrogant, egotistical, blame shifting.....yeah we all know them by now, won't dissappear overnight, in fact his promotion of Brand Brendan will probably go into HyperDrive. Look my greatest achievement of keeping us up has been realised. See I told you how I was the right man for the job. The board were so right in sticking by me. The only good thing is if he does get his long overdue refresh he has bitched about not having and we are no better off then hopefully it will be enough rope to finally hang himself. However he's such a media spinning, snake oil salesman he'll probably plant the seed very early on in pre-season that such a re-build will need time to gel, or time for my wonderfull brilliance to sink in eveyone need to reconnect to the lost philosophy of the club .... etc, etc. Edit. I must point out that if he's still here next season and after the refresh I Don't want us to fail lin any form, just so I can say 'I Told You So' . If the toad does manage to pull it around and we start getting results then I'll be happy as pig in poo (and just have to live with my dislike of the cretin) because he's finally doing what he's paid to do. We're already there. He was backed in January and it's no better. He's just not a very good manager. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the backing /refresh in Rodgers' eyes will need to be 5 or 6 players and not just a very cleverly worded "2 new acquisitions and 1 on loan" Edited 21 March 2023 by Guppys Love Child Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Fox Posted 21 March 2023 Share Posted 21 March 2023 You would imagine Pochettino would be first choice for the players, but would Levy subdue to player pressure to appoint him again? I wouldn't be surprised if Rodgers was on the shortlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is good at it and so was Clough. Rodgers on the other hand........... So right. In what other job could a guy be sacked for poor results and then get rehired days or weeks later in a similar post. Motivation and the instilling of self-belief is by far the major part of a manager's job. Clough was the prime example of a man exuding so much confidence in himself that it transferred to his players year after year. Revie, who apparently hated Clough, managed to collect one of the great footballing squads together, yet was an introvert by nature. This resulted in a strange club mentality. Leeds United never won the number of trophies their excellence warranted. That they were unwilling and unable to adapt to Clough showed how Revie had created closed mentality in his squad. Rodgers own peculiar, self-interested psyche has subdued the confidence and expressiveness of the squad. I wonder whether even Guardiola could rescue the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st albans fox Posted 21 March 2023 Share Posted 21 March 2023 It won’t happen but can you imagine if it came out in a few months that spurs made an approach for rodgers and we didn’t allow it because they weren’t prepared to pay any level of compensation ?? On a serious level - would you believe that was possible ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relegation would be a complete and utter disgrace. This is it, isn’t it. He came here and the Celtic fans couldn’t believe he gave up the chance to make history with them. His stock was high and that was after a rebuild. He could quite easily have been in the running for a few top7 - top 10 clubs. So why did he choose Leicester who “were just happy to stay up”. What a kind fella to give us his genius and beat the odds. It’s all rubbish. The squad, the investment etc. what was achieved was EXACTLY what all parties concerned were aiming for and more importantly, invested for.

Ric Flair Posted 21 March 2023 Share Posted 21 March 2023 If they did want him, I think we'd do a deal. The club are praying we get to the summer still in the PL and they go their seperate ways IMO. If they came for him now and we thought we could get someone else to steady the ship then I'd not be surprised to see it happen and be badged as a great opportunity for both parties. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are right mate I think the original plan was Conte would be staying at Spurs till the end of the season and then Brendan would take over in the summer.

Dames Posted 21 March 2023 Share Posted 21 March 2023 I hope Rodgers has the same agent as Jenas because that man works harder than the devil himself. Either way I can see us playing hardball with Spurs over the fee and Levy moving on very swiftly. As much as people want this to happen our board are very naive and will assume that because a big 6 club might want Rodgers they'll be able to fleece them. This could all end in a new deal for Rodgers and it wouldn't surprise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indierich06 Posted 21 March 2023 Share Posted 21 March 2023 The thing is, if he does go to Spurs, what the hell do we do? Feels like we would be better off waiting till the summer for a permanent appointment, as we won't be able to get anyone decent in immediately. Would there be anyone half decent who would come in as caretaker until the end of the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah if the managers job is so minimal let's get someone in on a tenth of what we're paying this clown. Tye players have been shit but it's a hell of a coincidence that so many of them have dropped off at the same time. I just find it interesting that these kind of excuses haven't been afforded to our other failing managers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diffco Posted 21 March 2023 Share Posted 21 March 2023 This would be the holy grail. We get rid of the useless weasel, for a fee, to spurs. It potentially saves the season. If not, so be it, at least he's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
