Yes me to, and finally having to be escorted out of a virtually empty ground by stewards because we would not leave and they wanted to start locking up!
-
I do wonder what some people have been watching.The biggest shambles was giving him the job.He has made a total balls up .
-
Lucky him,at the moment I wish I did not watch the games live.So looking forward to next Saturday already!
-
Having read many of your posts I am convinced you actually don't watch us or certainly haven't in the last few months.TV highlights can be misleading.
-
Yes it was definitely top half. I thought and still think we have the 7th best squad in the division, don't you ? and I expected us to finish around that position.Our poor start was not helped by the fixtures but when Puel took over exactly how many points behind 9th were we.With the squad at his disposal his record is dreadful,his team selections are dreadful bordering on farcical at times,his tactics are dreadful and we play dreadful football.Apart from that I think he is doing really well Like many I am not for getting rid of managers willy nilly but sometimes when something is wrong you just have to deal with it.So let's give him until when you say,on what basis from what you have witnessed as I presume you go to the games, do you expect a miraculous turnaround.He has a worse win percentage than Shakespeare and that was before Saturday. Nearly 11am, still amazed he is still here.If he makes Saturday the ground will be in meltdown when the inevitable happens and we put on another s*** show.
-
And what exactly is sufficient time.We are going downhill faster than the Titanic and if someone is not up to the job you can give them forever but the end result is that they just not good enough.The worst thing is that results like Saturday are not really that surprising.
-
What really bothers me is that quite a few seem to think Puel will still be in charge come Saturday.Please god no. I am amazed we have not heard anything as yet as was convinced he would be gone first thing today.

Who should be the next Leicester City manager?
Ian S replied to Sharpe's Fox's topic in Leicester City Forum
Just been sacked after a horrid season at Espanyol. -
It is not 4 games though, the reality is the decision is probably pretty much made based on how he has performed or not performed since his arrival.
-
Yes because he has made a total pigs ear of this season.In a poor division with the squad he has had he has made a botch of it.
-
It is hardly surprising our owners are concerned.We have stunk the place out for months against mediocre opposition on many occasions and what should have been a very good season with nailed on 7th and at least a semi final has become very disappointing. We are getting worse and I expect another typical Puel like performance tomorrow and another defeat. I do agree that those making decisions on managerial appointments need to be held accountable.

**New** Puel In or Out - A simple Poll Mk 2
Ian S replied to Larry_LCFC's topic in Leicester City Forum
Why? There has to be a tipping point and maybe for some it came during the last two games having built up over the uninspiring/dreadful 17 game run. -
Claude Puel lays out his vision for Leicester City
Ian S replied to davieG's topic in Leicester City Forum
Thanks mate. I understand this stat . 18 points in 17 games. I know it might be a bit complicated for you but try and take it on board and then forecast what sort of position we will be in come November time if this long term poor form continues in the same vein. -

xG and xGA means bugger all.Put the ball in the net and beat some p*** poor team for a change. So if Puel is in charge next season and we have 18 points after 17 games but our xG is good against our xGA then all will be well with the world? No it will mean we are in a relegation dogfight. -

Ian S replied to davieG's topic in Leicester City Forum
The fact we are nit picking over whether a point a game is relegation form or even having the conversation really says it all.Furthermore your credibility will take a bash if you really believe that with just our fair share of luck since the turn of the year we would be 14 points better off!.As for encouraging displays recently,name them as I think they will be more than matched by average/poor ones. He needs a strong end to the season to even start to convince me,starting tonight. -

Lose tomorrow and 17 points from 17 games is as near as dammit relegation form as you can get. I understand people defending Puel in that he deserves more time but with the squad he has that record is a disgrace and indefensible in a p*** poor league. -

I will quote that back to you October time.Personally I am in the very much undecided camp, I am not over keen on a revolving door for managers but at the same time if you make a mistake in recruitment sometimes you have to make quick decisions and accept the mistake.I can just about cope with the relegation form we have showed for a considerable part of the season but it is the performances that are so worrying as well a quite frankly bizarre team selections on occasions. I predicted a couple of weeks ago we would not get 50 points and I stand by that, and if that happens I think he is toast. Another defeat on Thursday which is quite likely could well lead to fans unrest in the ground. I would add that for those that keep pointing out we are 8th due to Puel.This is a dreadful Premier League bar 4/5 teams and any decent manager should have got us to 7th or at the worst 8th so it is hardly an achievement. As said I am undecided but as fickle as most fans and if Southampton turn us over it may tip me over the edge. -

Rightly or wrongly he won't get close to Xmas.I have major doubts he will be here for the start of next season. -
Oops! To be honest that had bypassed me.Could well be a long dramatic afternoon.
-
Extra time in the replay at Stamford Bridge? That's a bold prediction.

Typical Leicester,lose today and win next Sunday.
