Much more anger and frustration at the owners and players now than Ranieri who many feel sorry for. Compared to when Munoz went and a lot of the fan base seemed to agree with that decision. I suspect we will have another 2 before the end of the year...one to try and keep us up but fail then another in the Championship. And certainly think player power is playing a part here. Really begs the question why the last guy was sacked to start with. Things were going fine, considering the standard of the squad. The fact I don’t know his nam sums up how many gaffa’s you get through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Sionnach Posted 24 January 2022 Share Posted 24 January 2022 With almost no exceptions ,Ferguson and Hodgkinson, 70 is too old to manage a PL club. Claudio is a thoroughly nice guy but he should never have done this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambert09 Posted 24 January 2022 Share Posted 24 January 2022 Genuine question am I the only one that hopes any of burnely, Norwich and watford stay up? It’s not really a good thing for me to want your club to stay up as I basically want the least threatening sides. But I’m surprised so many want rid of burnley because they are ugly and boring or Norwich because they are an embarrassment. why would you rather have a team that will potentially win that cup that we might have won or steal a player we wanted.

Football is a product we consume and we all want to be entertained by the best teams and interesting new options (like when a Huddersfield or a Blackpool come up) That's the secondary element to actually watching your team and wanting them to win every game of course, but the simple fact is if you've got a season ticket you don't want half of the 19 games to be a side parking everyone behind the ball and you sitting their in frustration every game watching your team trying to break down the block.

Like he's my grandad or something On second thought, I agree with you— he should pack it in to spare us, haha. I was lucky enough to get to meet Claudio and chat to him after we won the league; he was so wonderful and kind. It meant a lot to me to get that opportunity to thank him— and he replied with, “No. No. Thank you.” Edited 24 January 2022 by The_77 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzFOX Posted 24 January 2022 Share Posted 24 January 2022 Ranieri will always be a legend. So nice to see him back at the KP but not so good for him. Watford really are a troubled club so not one bit suprised this experiment did not go well. Hope he retires now. Hate te see him suffer although he gets paid well from getting sacked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that you have actual video replays yet they're giving that I cannot look by the elephant in the room. Find it interesting that it happens on the same week Man City have a couple of contentious ones go against them. Trying to manufacture a title race are we? It is imperative for the Premier League to receive the £billions from around the world that they ensure the top six with the large stadiums stay in the top six. It’s now becoming pretty obvious that the PL have an agenda with some control over the outcome of matches. The Liverpool penalty was proof that the unseen people behind the screens now have control. The billions of viewers around the world who pay the PL are not the slightest interested in seeing clubs like Burnley or Southampton etc etc sitting in the top six Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Nod.E Posted 24 January 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 24 January 2022 Watford deserve to go down, their owners are a joke. Wouldn't feel too sorry for Claudio. He probably came in and saw it for exactly what it was. Three months of work before the inevitable payout. Joke of a football club. If they do go down, hopefully we can nab Sarr in the process. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wardyfox86 Posted 24 January 2022 Share Posted 24 January 2022 Don't know if this has been asked before, but what is the likelihood that we get a game or 2 slapped into this mini break?

Leicesterpool Posted 24 January 2022 Share Posted 24 January 2022 (edited) Premier League is rigged, they know having likes of Man United, Man City, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham in the top six there likely to make the most money via tv revenue and sales. Though i'm not sure why Tottenham is considered a top six club as they've not really won anything in donkey's years and I would say fan base wise I wouldn't say it's any bigger than Villa, Leeds and Newcastle.

BenTheFox Posted 24 January 2022 Share Posted 24 January 2022 (edited) I'm going to sound really patronising here but people see Watford as some sort of joke and I actually don't get it. It's not the way that I would want Leicester to be run but they have been the premier league for six of the past seven seasons, which for Watford is damn good going seeing as their owners are not actually very wealthy compared to the rest of the premier league. It has clearly works for them. Edited 24 January 2022 by BenTheFox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
