Hmm.. Have you forgotten who's in charge of our team and tactics?

Imagine the headlines if we'd finished 7th last season under Maresca... Jump forward to this time next year and if the idiots dont sack van Rooney.....

If there was some obscure way that both teams could lose at say 1,000,000/1 - I'd be lumping on! 🤣

I've heard it said that the only thing worse than a gay colleague having the hots for you (as a straight person), is a gay colleague NOT having the hots for you! Likewise l looked at the football gossip after the Rodgers relegation hoping not to see our best players names mentioned - Barnes, Youri, Madders, Castagne.. They all were of course, numerous times. This time when l look there are NONE mentioned EVER! Fact is, nobody fancies our bunch of second and third raters!

It's almost certain that Cooper wouldn't have kept us up ( or prime Ferguson for that matter), but... Cast your minds back to the end of march 2015, big Nige could easily have been binned (and with our present owner almost certainly would have been). And history would have been so different. On such decisions the fortunes of clubs and the dreams of fans balance on a knife edge.

A saying l love is "It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt." (Mark Twain) In managerial terms we will never know for sure if Cooper would have kept us up - very unlikely with our useless players and hapless board, but van Rooney is definitely the fool who opened his mouth!

With wine its ABC, Anything But Chardonnay.. With strikers its ABD.. Needless to say the D is for Daka. The man who makes Ade look like Pele!

Those people who feel so beholden to the present owner because of his fathers skill and success should maybe consider this - if, after the tragedy Top had decided to sell, and the new owners had presided over the mess we have now, would they offer the same level of support? I think we can guess the answer. Sadly for us, Top is not his father, he doesn't have the same skill, vision or business acumen and perhaps most importantly he doesn't have the same ambition for us, l think he has also demonstrated that we come some way down his priorities list too. That picture of him and Rudkin laughing together sums it up for me, like cracking jokes at the graveside of a supposedly dear friend's funeral - it clearly meant little or nothing to him. I think the best we can hope for is that he gets bored with us and sells, but l see a lot more frustration and disappointment for us supporters before this happens.

It seems to me that there are two different and diametrically opposed visions here, we as supporters want our club to be run in a professional, efficient and successful manner and for those who fail in their roles to be replaced, no matter who they are. This is how we as ordinary working people experience life, if you are poor at your job or negligent you are replaced, businesses that keep sub standard employees fail. But the owner doesn't appear to see it this way. For him Leicester City is a plaything and in my opinion the most important things for him are playing with his friends and not upsetting them. There will be no replacements at board level and if RVN wants to stay in the playroom, then the rich boy will let him. If his wealth were dependent on LCFC being run efficiently then things would have to change but it isnt, so they won't. No amount of protests or even a mass boycott of games will work, he has no respect for supporters opinions only his director friends. He will sell only when he tires of his toy, and the decline will continue until that time. Sadly l can only see a downward spiral now.

I seriously doubt that pathetic owner sacks pathetic manager much less pathetic DoF, the boys club doesn't work that way. This is the most disconnected I've felt with my club in 40+ years, but then l feel a serious disconnect with football in general atm. Football is just like any business now, customers like us are simply there to make the owners feel important and provide an atmosphere. Fallen out of love big time with it all tbh. ☹️

Ok, please enlighten us bud, I'm curious. 🤔

I think this is the single funniest post I've ever read! It genuinely makes me giggle every time l think of it. 😂😂

We'd have to beat Liverpool!

"If you ever want a game to get back on track, just play Leicester. They have lost eight successive league games without scoring, and that run is not going to end here. Ruud van Nistelrooy was a dreadful appointment as manager but I don't blame him or his predecessor, Steve Cooper for the Foxes' awful season because there is a deeper underlying problem at the club. It didn't help, then, that the players seemed to think - and probably still do - that they are better than they are. The fans were expecting too much from this season too, but I doubt that is the case anymore, because their team has been so feeble". My God, how bad has it got that l agree with every word Sutton says here! However Van Rooney isn't a manager, Rudkin or no Rudkin!

Me neither but as the saying goes "there's always room at the bottom" Dire manager, dire appointment.
