Including West Ham, we took 16 points out of 23, Rodger’s was even asked in an interview if we could get it after that game. At the West Ham game, after all the players/ staff had gone in, Rodger’s came back out and up to our fans for the first time in many games and was given a huge ovation from everyone. We were only on the way up then, what happened next nobody was predicting.

I thought we’d get Europe again after West Ham away in 22/23 just before the World Cup, we were playing some serious football again. Rodger’s was given a huge ovation after that game also. Then we returned from the winter break and were never the same.

The amount of people who were happy with Kasper going and Ward being our number 1 going into that 22/23 season should not be forgotten, it was not a controversial move at the time. Last game of the season prior v Watford he was class

I’ve heard he really likes a bet

Go and shout abuse at Brussel until he’s gone

F*** off Russel C***

Every time I’ve seen him it’s been horrific, can’t even play simple passes

I he signs i will honestly give my season ticket away untill we sack him I mean it

Really struggling with this club to be honest

Watched him on the overlap and I find him intolerable

Yeah I’d absolutely agree. We know Top wants us to play possession based and I’d be surprised if we stray from that again, especially with the profile of players we have. Tanner did clarify on either BBC RL or BSLB’s that Top chose Cooper and it’s unfair to label him as Rudkins man. But you’d assume he was put infront or Top via Rudkin and the same could happen here as you say. Equally annoyed if we get Martian as we need someone reasonably flexible again as you say. There’s going to be so much agent talk in the press until September the 1st and our name will be thrown into a lot of articles, hoping this is one of them. I do acknowledge that we don’t have many options if we part with Ruud and Dyche will be on a shortlist, hopefully bottom.

Not chance we get him, Cooper was an awful fit and this guy is no different

Hurst and Cannon will probably bag 20 each whilst Daka will have knocked out his 6th ball boy

Young keeper gets injured, comes back into the worst side in the league in a toxic environment and doesn’t perform to his best every game… Shock Still hasn’t even performed badly. Just not to what we’ve seen. Very understandable I think, we’re shite and down. He’s a quality shot stopper and good distribution. Deserves a chance at Chelsea better than that fraud they have. I’d swap him for maybe 5 keepers in the league at most.

Ward for 15, anyone else in goal and we don’t go down in 23. This seasons decline began when he came on against Newcastle. We were fine before then. We never recovered from the Newcastle and Wolves humblings

Thanks a lot mate

How can I listen to radio Leicester commentary online ? Can only get the tigers

Not ready for it, has more to give for us next season. I recon we can’t afford his wages next season as he made it clear he’s not retiring then. No mention of Rudkin also

This is exactly it, a model that serves you well if you consistently bring in managers who play the same/ similar style of football like Brighton. This allows players with unique attributes, players like Winks and Vestergaard who are quite specialist in areas ( ball playing ) and very limited in others, to constantly be valued by the manager and always suit the team. However when you hire managers who differ vastly from one another in their style, as we have, and allow them to recruit for their desired style, you end up with a squad like ours, with players that don't compliment one another, leaving a patchwork team and ultimately a poor one. Furthermore, if you put your trust in managers recommendations and give them the final say, you allow for personal bias and ego to dictate signings. Rodger’s was evident here in his appointment of Congerton and his signings with us. FFP has meant that the need for a singing to be successful is vitally important, as the ability to sell them, especially with prem clubs having to pay a premium in wages and fee’s is so difficult if they don’t do well, as has happened with us with players like Daka and Bouba. Ultimately that is why clubs now leave signings to directors of football and their analysts, as they can recruit players consistently suiting the style of play the club has broadly decided to adopt. We need to shift to this model, it has its downsides, but ours has failed us.

I’m not backing Rudkin, but it is interesting that anybody with any knowledge first hand of the man does speak highly of him. I know a few people who know him averagely well socially and they also speak very well of him. As mentioned on the pod, we are in this mess for a reason though and somebody is accountable.

Didn’t work hard when we were relegated and went missing game after game. Newcastle supporting mate says the same thing

Confidence absolutely shot, not enough quality and poor tactics. We were fighting for a large part of this season and should have come away with points in may more games but defeat after defeat has destroyed them

Daka is a truly terrible football player. Can’t pass in any direction, awful touch, average acceleration, average finishing and is the worst dribbler I have ever seen. He’s the slowest quick footballer player I’ve seen. Much more suited to track than football as only once he gets going he’s quick. What really gets me is that he’s a big lad, yet is absolutely hopeless at using his weight/ body effectively. He’s a pacifist on the pitch. Hasn’t improved an ounce since being here, and that not due to a lack of game time. Hungry players put the hard yards in during training and after to improve, he evidently hasn’t. Worst signing of the last 20 years factoring in for wages and transfer fee.

Blocked them, makes it much easier

Season ticket holder, done 80% of the games home and away and I’m not going anymore this season, finished. It’s toxic and utterly depressing. You work hard all week and have two days off. It’s not worth my time going down. I’d rather spend it with my friends and family. That makes me sad though as I know I’ll have to wait until August for another game, almost half a year away, but it is what it is. The KP is a depressing place, it sucks all positivity from you at the moment. Only exception is if Vardy calls it a day, then I’ll be there only out of respect for the man.
