DMU Fox Posted 26 February 2017 Share Posted 26 February 2017 26 minutes ago, Bert said: Pretty sure they've all been on a media ban until instructed otherwise and then all been asked to post something along similar lines. They've all thanked him for what happened last season, they've all wished him the best and added their own little personal touch. Maybe cynical from me but I'm not daft enough to think that this is all a coincidence. It's how it reads to me. This is a carefully managed PR exercise from the club, there's no chance they would have let them shoot from the hip straight away Thursday night, best to give it a bit of time to get the stories straight and consistent. It's how most big organisations in business/politics do it. My only surprise is that they didn't all do it Friday evening when Kasper and Shinji went as a 24 hour wait looks better than a 36/48 hour wait. Not that it matters too much by that point i guess.

lcfcben76 Posted 26 February 2017 Share Posted 26 February 2017 Just seen Amartey's, seems very similar to previous ones from others, copied or evidence the club have promoted it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpinneyHillRanger Posted 26 February 2017 Share Posted 26 February 2017 Yep definitely a coordinated effort by the club heirachy... Tbh only Benny's and shinjis responses seem genuine. Rest of them are just to placate the watching eyes of media witchunt and fans. Fact vardy was active before his message speaks volumes. Drinky, vardy, Morgan and Kasper are the ringleaders Let's just hope they perform now that they got what they wanted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucey Posted 26 February 2017 Share Posted 26 February 2017 Yeah wording sounds a bit odd but Amartey would have been on Claudio's side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was also nice to see Vardy acknowledge that the team is underperforming. A footballer (non LCFC) close to Albrighton messaged me today to say he was in bits over the stories as they were profoundly not true. I only know Albrighton very loosely through a few interviews we've done and I can't believe he'd get involved in any knifing of Ranieri. I'm not sure any player knifing has been done. The owners knew the players weren't massively behind the manager but that doesn't mean they tried to get him the sack by bad mouthing him to the bigwigs. That said, one current player did tell me a while back the atmosphere in the dressing room was very poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biggs Posted 26 February 2017 Share Posted 26 February 2017 Hardly fair to blame one or the other when we don't know. When and if a reason comes out, we'll likely be told issues were left open, communication was poor and the distance of comparative thought gave way to poor play from a lack of game plan to follow.....just my thoughts from what I've seen on the pitch Pleased players messaged CR regardless of how genuine other individuals perceive them to be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what it's worth I can corroborate this entirely as one of only 2 links I have in to the current set up is Albrighton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad the Fox Posted 26 February 2017 Share Posted 26 February 2017 The witch hunt needs to stop and we need to back the team stoically for the ramainder of the season because if the atmosphere turns toxic inside the stadium we're finished, no one wants that. As for who's done the backstabbing maybe no one has, maybe the owners noticed a few things wrong and approached the senior players in the squad and asked them a few difficult questions, as the players bosses they would expect an honest answer and or opinion. Get behind the team and club and look forwards because as with Pearsons sacking no one really knows what happened despite media speculation and the reasons could be full justified Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were individuals who instigated this more profoundly than others that's a certainty though. I suspect it was a difficult place to be in the team when individuals around you are dragging their heels, hardly the place to motivate yourself to try perform yourself. This toxicity needs purging.
