  1. Regardless of his terrible tactics, I can’t stand his haircut and clothing style. He looks like he’s on his way out of an Oasis gig rather than a football manager.
  2. The ultimate sterile possession manager. We don’t have the players for this style, and he is so rigid in his philosophy that he won’t change. We’ve got multiple recent experiences of what happens when a team goes on a bad run and the manager can’t turn it round.
  3. “Scrapped a draw” against Notts County in League One, and you question why people boo? We were in the Premier League 2 seasons ago
  4. We’re not getting promoted. Maybe scrap a play-off spot if we sack RM in March and go on a run
  5. Exactly! Why bother spending on expensive 20 goal/season strikers when we don’t make any chances for them anyway!
  6. Don’t worry, our scouting department has an excellent record of identifying and signing top quality strikers over the last decade! Bristric is sure to be a continuation of their success over the last few seasons
  7. I think people are forgetting that BDCR is a Premier League forward, and in theory, should piss League One.
  8. Because I’m a lifelong Leicester fan and hope that at some point we’ll stop playing the tedious possession football that has seen us relegated 3 times in 4 seasons
  9. How would I have known it was tedious then? I had a hope that it wouldn’t be, alas, it seems the club hasn’t learnt anything over the last two seasons
  10. More of the same crap football that has seen us relegated two seasons in a row and is beyond tedious to watch
  11. When you look at the potential line up, it really is a joke how fast and far we have fallen
  12. Qualifying from our EFLT group would be a good start!
  13. If he scores against England tonight
  14. I would question whether our squad is any better than the others in L1 given the amount of turnover we will experience this summer. 4-2-3-1 slow possession based football has been proven (by us) not to work in any division unless you genuinely outclass the opposition playerwise, and have a coach that actually knows how to coach it. L1, like the championship, is a very physical league and if we continue our style of play, every club will just sit back against us, soak up our ‘pass it slowly around the back’ play, and beat us with a corner in the 80th minute. Since the last season of Rodger’s spell at the club the style of play hasn’t worked, it was only when we had Enzo and PL quality players in the championship that it did work. Brussels isn’t Enzo, and we have L1 quality players at best next season - it will be a train wreck if we insist on appointing someone to play a style of football that has seen us relegated 3 times in the last 4 seasons We need a complete reset of style and players, like when Pearson came in last time and rebuilt the squad
  15. Appointing Russel Martin would also indicate that there’s no intention at the club of deviating from the style that has seen us suffer back to back relegations, and 3 relegations in 4 seasons.
  16. Glamour friendly with Notts County from the division above us pleas
  17. It’s Rudders that shapes the squad, not the manager
  18. The killer instinct "that someone like Harry Souttar has" - That is damning. Our manager sees a perma crocked defender as our most dangerous player
  19. That's on Rudkin watching Vardy age and leave, and arogantly thinking Daka and Ayew were good enough, despite implementing a system that didn't play to either of their strengths.
  20. Anyone arguing about the points deduction is missing the... point... We should not have been in a situation where a 6 point deduction relegates us from the Championship. It is chronic mismangement.
  21. Injuries set him back, but in his pomp, the best right-back we've ever had, and dashingly handsome too. He clearly loves the club, never agitated for a move, stuck with us through 2 (3) relegations, and is a classy player. I will fondly remember him and would love to see him back one day in a coaching role.
  22. Technically, yes. But Danny Simpson won the Premier League.
  23. 6 relegations in his career, including back-to-back with us
  24. He’s a league two manager at best. Amazing how some thought he was the man to turn us around.
