Is anyone else's head falling off at the way fans of other clubs are talking about the situation?

I think those who wanted him gone and for us to make a real stab of playing some decent football this year have had their hopes quashed by those back to back wins. History tells us that it has to be inexplicably bad in order for this board to act. It's conceivable now that we could only pick up a couple of wins between now and Xmas and still be competitive in the league table, which you'd assume would be enough for the board to give him the Jan transfer window.

Does the crowd get vocal towards a manager at Leicester? I've not seen them turn unanimously at a home game since being back in the PL in 2014. Having said that, I was surprised at how angry the crowd were at Cooper's inaction on Saturday. Certainly doesn't point to his shelf life being particularly long.

His plan is to try and win 6 or 7 more games like yesterday from the remaining 30. Utterly depressing. His inferiority complex is highly likely to lead to us being relegated & as always with this club, it’s just so preventable.

Intrigued to see who he brings on at 84 mins now that Hamza is out.

Those sorts of posts are my absolute favourite. "Look how dumb our manager is !!!!" aaaaaaaaand picks 12 players

Our best team at the time was Iversen (Gone) Ricardo (Not playing) Soyuncu (Gone) Evans (Gone) Castagne (Gone) Ndidi KDH (gone) Youri (Gone) Maddison (Gone) Vardy Barnes (gone)

Not sure our PPG can get much worse within reason.

It's already very bad! The players don't look like they have any belief in themselves & the manager has got a massive complex about not getting humiliated. They should've seen enough. I'd like to think that handsomely paid board members have got more humility than this, but the only thing keeping Cooper in the job is the fact they don't want to admit they've ****ed up. Again.

I wonder how bad it'll be before they act. Rudkin & Top are so useless that you could see us picking up 2 or 3 points from the next four (Which are all winnable), and then extending their patience with Cooper because he'll fluke a point at Old Trafford in November. We're completely sleepwalking into a situation at Christmas where we've got 10-15 points on the board & need a new manager. What are we waiting for?

Apologies if it’s already been said, but I think his chant is the worst I can remember in 15 years of going to games

We set up to not lose against Everton so god knows how we’re setting up tomorrow. Would be astonished to see more than one recognise forward on the pitch.

I think we can all agree that any good manager would now repay Ward with 27 consecutive premier league starts.

I'm desperate for Cooper to do well but he is shooting himself in the foot in so many areas, none more so than with Ricardo. Play him at RB, LB, CDM, CAM or RW and he immediately improves the team, and yet he chooses not to. Bizarre.

It would perfectly encapsulate the KP if Youri gets booed.

You've got to say he was phenomenal for us in all the big games in the fa cup (1/4 final - bench, semi - bench, final - bench). People's memories are clouded by how dreadful he was in the end of 22/23 just as much as they're clouded by him showing up on the showreels against the utter shite in the league when it simply didn't matter. We got a great fee for him. The idea he deserves a standing ovation after the West Ham Covid debacle, the southampton tweet, the Everton/Bmouth disasters... no. Didn't deserve booing but this fanbase is so soft its ridiculous.

Some people giving Maddison a sodding standing ovation by the way. Game is as gone as it ever has been.

I thought this. I am inclined to think Cooper is a good guy & a decent man manager, but that was totally unnecessary.

They finished 5th in the league last year. They've added £150m worth of talent to their squad. We were a championship side last year who have spent 10% of that (prior to yesterday). Manager's first game in an extremely anxious and unsettled environment. We had no tactical idea in the first half yesterday but I felt a few individuals showed some real quality (Mads, Buenonette). Cooper then had the humility to a) change it at half time and b) acknowledge he got it wrong in the post match interview - something neither of his immediate 2 permanent predecessors would've done. There are countless Leicester teams down the years who would've given up after that first 10 mins but we hung in there. And regarding 'get absolutely battered, rescued by your keeper, etc'... buckle up because with the quality we have, that is all we can realistically do against a lot of the top teams.

Might bring my Rudkin In bedsheet.

fantastic irony in the one exciting signing being ruined by tax.

Would it be more or less pathetic than his tweet after Southampton? Or his penalty against Everton? Or, on the whole, his performances when it genuinely mattered for us? He let us down badly in the second half of last season. He wasn't the only player to blame by any stretch of the imagination, but I would suggest it's more than fair for a lot of the fanbase to feel a sense of apathy towards him, and fair enough if they still associate him with how pathetic that team was in 2023.

Lets be real here, this fanbase is completely mental when it comes to attitude towards ex players. There was one season they booed Kante and Mahrez and applauded Demarai Gray. Totally backwards.
