  1. Yeah and they are the worst, Americans dont like Relegation, love franchises and all that US crap, they try to force it over here. American owners in most cases are absolutely the worst.
  2. I cant help but think a manager who adapts to different games might be quite scucessful in the modern era. Yes it is lovely to watch a great tiki taka move when it works, you score at the end of a 50 pass move, but to be honest its also great to watch a surging counter attack forward at pace with 3 passes, or a winger absolutely ripping apart a defender. I dont really get the high risk at the back, no risk up front situation, and passing between centre backs putting yourself under pressure. I also think a lot of these teams have a cronic lack of movement, like last year if players moved into spaces it would have helped. It also seems set pieces and shooting are a bit of an afterthought, we were terrible at shooting and set pieces, yet its an easy way to create a chance. The flip side is we often give away chances at set pieces. I think a blind commitment to a philosphy is silly. Our best games last year, Enzo didnt like! Which was wierd!
  3. PSR is the dumbest thing to happen in Football. It really isnt helping to make things fairer or more competitive.
  4. Not many do although looks like we are about to commit complete self harm by employing a Championship nobody as manager. I would think that most people will be more successful than us in the coming years.
  5. Same it's an absolute disgrace, he is a terrible football manager in the Premier League, not one stat tells me otherwise. There are at least 3 other better managers available who would at least get us competitive. Under Cooper we will be relegated, we will likely get a record points low and tge Forest fans will find it hilarious and call him 'agent cooper' when he takes us down with -5 points.
  6. Haha no. I genuinely think it could be one of the worst managerial appointments ever made by any top flight club. I'd probably rather have Steve Gerrard or Lampard. The guys statistics are just flat crap. At best he is a mediocre Championship manager, who punched slightly above his weight. Uninspiring negative shit.
  7. This! It's that he is a genuinely bad manager. Look at his Premier League win rate it's horrific. Employing him says 1 thing - Championship football and oblivion.
  8. If its Cooper we might as well give up now, 3rd rate Championship manager. Look at his Premier League stats, you would have to be a complete moron to employ that useless sack of shit. He kept Forest up only by the virtue that we were shit. I would say our survival chances are zero under that clueless muppet.
  9. This! 100% glad I'm not the only one who sees it. I will personally drive the wooly haired twat wherever he wants to go!
  10. It's not going to be. The Leicester city way is to **** around for months wasting time.
  11. How many football clubs are both profitable and successful? Leicester City can be profitable but are likely to be a mediocre club like Palace at best, a Championship yo yo club to Championship mid table at worst. I think for success you got to gamble a bit, we did we lost. What football circles? There are many many worse owners out there! Ask Utd, Old Trafford collapsing, Sheffield Wed, Sheffield Utd, Reading etc. We have seen what can happen to clubs our size that mean little to anyone except the fans, Coventry, Derby etc. Yes they will eventually rise back, but it's a fine line. Are the owners perfect, absolutely not. There's stuff the pisses me off, but then american owners would piss me off too. I hate the Thai king being held on the pitch and 800 Thai influencers etc but football is largely full of this shit, like the YouTube tosser with Garnacho. A lot of fans would love to have had the 10 years we have had. So for me they need a bit of time to try and fix it. I'm not a fan of Rudkin and the club needs to think wiser commercially, the service on basic things sucks but we are not totally alone on that one!
  12. Intelligent response. Even more hilarious. So what did we achieve before the last 10 years? 3 league cups and a Charity shield, yeah okay let's go back to being owned by the Shipmans then? Yoyo bounce and the odd cup run. Of course the club has been here longer, I've seen some shit, a lot between 2000 and 2009 and early 90s, times when the club was skint because we are Leicester City and we were largely irrelevant to most people. We can go back to those days sure, I'll still be there, but did we ever dream of Premier League titles, FA Cups, European nights back in 2008 at Stoke? I know I didn't! But surely they have to have some credit for the success if you are going to go after them for the failures? Would you change the last 10 years?
  13. I think it's fair to say we wouldn't have had the last 10 years without King Power, stuff we never dreamed of. Yes they have made errors. We probably would have been a yoyo club at best, like we always had done, or perhaps Mandaric could have sold us to someone more dodgy like a couple of the other clubs he was at. There's no proof there is a host of millionaires queuing to take over a club in some place in the midlands or thst said millionaire would be any better. They could be debt loading asset stripping Americans or a Mike Ashley type in it for their own gain. I'm not saying they can do anything, what I am saying is yes they've made errors but I think it's delusional for fans to think a white Knight is gonna ride in and pay millions for and be a custodian of the club that is essentially not a lot, it's not really like that anymore. Where did our recent successes come from? Pure luck?
  14. Yes, but you have to face facts. Without the last 10 years we are Stoke, we'll worse than Stoke as they have very rich owners. We had won the league cup and like them or not KP have led us during our most successful period, wed probably be a mid table Championship club. Yes they have made errors, trust in Rodgers the biggest one.
  15. And still People can't see that without Top we are a complete non entity of a club that would have only ever won the league cup. No-one wants to buy a loss making midlands football club.
  16. Defo sell, we have better defenders. Questionable positioning. 45 mill for Enzo
  17. Well they are part of the cartel **** knows why, maybe because it's one less team to actually compete with the others. The main issue is if our owner wants to lose 300 million, that is entirely up to him, unless the authorities can prove he isn't good for the money. Which given the history of debt to equity swaps seems unlikely.
  18. PASSSSHHHHHHUUUUUN To be honest the Chat Shit get banged every player 100% 90 minutes backs against the wall, low block, hard tackle, quick counter tactic next year against tippy tappy bollocks would probably serve us as well as anything at this point!
  19. It's fine but they need to deal with the big clubs first. I don't care how 'complicated' cough corrupt it is. If Man City hadn't cheated, we might have qualified for the Champions League on 2 occasions, I think really the whole thing is a sack of shit. I'm glad the Club has tried to be ambitious instead of just being mediocre Burnley type fodder. Without that ambition we don't win the Premier League or FA cup. Obvs the big six don't like the status quo being challenged, the game is dying and this stupid set of dumbass rules is one of the final nails being hammered in. What's the point if the only ever teams to challenge are City, Arsenal, Utd, Chelsea, Spurs and Liverpool, how dull.
  20. I'm grateful for his contribution. I liked him and I personally think he should have stayed, I am not to sure if this is a step to far too early. Time will tell. I mean really I suppose if he beats some relegation fodder that's good. We need to stop worrying about the points deduction until it's confirmed and we also know what other teams have. If we get -15 Man City should be on a lot less, also possibly Chelsea. Interesting really as if Man City hadn't cheated we might have qualified for the Champions League 2 times, you like to think that may have dramatically altered where we ended up.
  21. It's more a case of why do we want a competitor to do well? Simple answer is we don't. He's a competitor I certainly hope he loses at least 2 games as with any competitor. Largely I don't care but overall I hope they are Rubbish and finish below us because that's 1 less relegation spot for us!
  22. I think thats more luck than judgement, becasue we and Everton collectively decided to shit the bed. Then Brighton went on holiday and Arsenal bottled it.
  23. He clearly thinks he is 'elite' I guess time will tell. Some of his football was good to watch but at times it was unbearable. Maybe better players will bridge that gap, maybe they wont. One thing he could do with adding to his 'elite coaching team' is a striker coach, our strikers went from bad to worse throuughout the season. Some of our shooting at goal was atrocious, allmost like we were really sure what it was. We absolutely must be better at converting chances in future.
  24. I think we should adopt the Chat Shit get banged philosphy of football, Vardy player manager!
  25. I think the clubs statement is perfectly reasonable. They gave a guy a chance, backed him with a decent budget, stuck by him during a run of relegation form and quite frankly abysmal football. They have every right to be disappointed. Do we wish him well? No, hes at a competitior. I hope we smash grab counter a low block double against them next season after they have 99% pocession.
