I think it's best as nothing improved all season, but first time we have sacked a manager and it's left me feeling gutted

But when you're the man who will need to stump up £100m to run the club should we go down, you might be thinking less about your integrity and more about what needs to be done. Living your life off sentiment is a dangerous way to live. Wasn't this all about sentiment? a small club beating the big clubs against the odds? If it was about money, no outside fan would have given $hit about Leicester City ...

Stadt Posted 23 February 2017 Posted 23 February 2017 Just now, The Doctor said: Depends who we replace him with - generally the former though. Yeah of course, I feel we at least have a chance now

Corky Posted 23 February 2017 Posted 23 February 2017 Agree with all of Bab's comments in this, horrible situation but I think something had to be done. There is a difference between wanting someone to go and accepting someone has to go. As said by others, it's easy on the outside to sit and criticise, when you're in the middle of it you have a different view.
Bilsthorpe Blue Posted 23 February 2017 Posted 23 February 2017 Everyone at the club should hold their head in shame from the owners ( we will not make a decision until the end of the season) to the players (99% of whom are still pinching themselves that they won the premier league, are still in with a chance of reaching the last 8 of the champions league and doubled nay trebled their salary). He has done what NO other manager in our history has managed to do. He has supposedly shown loyalty to last year's team shame they didn't repay him. I'm sure it will all come out in the wash
The Doctor Posted 23 February 2017 Posted 23 February 2017 Just now, JamesfromlondonLCFC said: wait theres a scenario in which youd rather go down if it means keeping ranier? mental. Id rather go down now with Claudio than stay up with hodgson, Pardew, Roy Keane or dyche (to take four names people have recently suggested). Wagner, nagelsmann, galtier (not that any of them would come), I'd rather stay up, but it's likely we'll get a shit dinosaur or a twat, and even if we scrape survival we'll be completely ****ed next season. Like when we kept appointing a new clogger in the run up to relegation to league one.

And as I said, if it's pardew or similar we go to barely shithousing survival until we don't manage it a la the three seasons leading up to league one. I'd rather just get it over and done with if that's the way we're going rather than a long, drawn out death rattle.
biggs Posted 23 February 2017 Posted 23 February 2017 No shame at all on the club. CR was failing terribly and that's a shame because it deservedly cost him his job. His job is performance orientated and this year we collapsed to where the owners are looking out for the club not a single individual. These owners have given us hope for the future and got it right with Pearson and imo have made the correct decision here. It's a bold move and they have my support.

MattCan Posted 23 February 2017 Posted 23 February 2017 ... and you want players to be loyal to the club? Cut the fvck out. You have not even been loyal to the man who brought you the highest achievement in your history.

You do understand that you aren't guaranteed that with a new manager any more than Ranieri? So many people on here talk of sacking him as if it will magically solve all of our issues.

Guest bss9401 Posted 23 February 2017 Posted 23 February 2017 Claudio and we Foxes all got what we have dreamed of, being champions. I am sad to see him go but it was a call that had to be made. We will never know whether Claudio would have kept us up but we move on and will always have our names on that trophy. We could not have done it without him and if we stay up his name will never be tarnished in Leicester.
Jakemoore Posted 23 February 2017 Posted 23 February 2017 Anyone claiming that they would rather go down with Claudio in charge than stay up without him is either deluded or just playing silly bolloxs. As some have said already, there's a big difference between wanting him gone and appreciating that he had to go.
Dr The Singh Posted 23 February 2017 Posted 23 February 2017 It is a real shame on our club we didn't do this alot earlier, would have given the new man more time to try and get our club to avoid relegation
MattCan Posted 23 February 2017 Posted 23 February 2017 A counter goal from Vardy will never feel the same, if it ever happens again. A nutmeg from Mahrez will never feel the same, if it ever happens again.. A last minute equalizer from Morgan will never feel the same, if it ever happens again. A Leicester City league title will never feel the same, if it ever happens again. .... The Leicester City story will never feel the same. ... It's all gone with Ranieri.

You have not even been loyal to the man who brought you the highest achievement in your history. Loyal is spending most your life as many have on here, following your team at home, following your team away, spending thousands of pounds following your team. Ranieri led us to a dream season last year but there was a multitude of reasons why it happened. Shoul Ranieri get credit? Yes. He should have a fvcking statue. But this year has been abysmal. And people have been spending ridiculous money to see the same old team trot out and play pathetically with few changes attempted by the manager. Those who paid to get to London, eat and drink in London, and lose 1-0 to a ten man Millwall team will testify. Personally I wanted him to stay, but those who wanted him out were well within their rights to say so. It's funny all the comments of 'dishonour' and 'shame' are the international fans who have followed for a year or two since we reached the Prem. Pearson had led us from the dregs of League One when he was forced out after a play off season in his first season back in the Championship, just so we could have a 'bigger name' manager come in, and end up taking us to the bottom of the league again. How shameful/dishnourable. Removing managers, however successful, has happened and will continue to happen for the rest of the club's existence. No one will forget Ranieri, he'll likely remain a legend and have his statue, but with the results it's no surprise. Underperform in your job and removal is always a danger regardless of the job.
JamesWelshFox Posted 23 February 2017 Posted 23 February 2017 I love my club, but football is a business and I accept that my ticket receipts do not pay for the club I love. I will always love Claudio and never forget that last home game against Everton, what a day. I will also respect the owners decision. It will have been difficult, but their responsibility cannot be to any one individual within the club, no matter how much you like them.

Funny that. Are you saying all people in Leicester are for the sacking? Did you do a survey? Edit: also you don't seem to understand what brought those international fans to Leicester City in the first place ...

Presumably not because I said he wanted to stay, did you even read that part? But as I mentioned with Pearson's first sacking, this club has had similarly 'dishonourable' and 'shameful' removals in the past under the same owners before we got to the Prem, what's the difference now?

The performances were unacceptable.
