st albans fox Posted 25 February 2017 Posted 25 February 2017 Anyone 'happy' that Claudio was sacked cant be a genuine fan of our beloved club. At best you can be comfortable with the decision. If you're happy then you don't deserve last season. Its done and if it is to have a non relegation consequence then it's vital that we all get behind the team starting Monday evening. That game is a freebie - need to see 100% effort but Liverpool will be ready for a response and I expect them to play around us as we charge around in a disjointed manner. Next Saturday is the big one. Absolutely cannot fail to win. Above all, the owners need to see that we are behind the team - although it's possible they may avoid attending Monday.
TAFKA Castroneves Posted 25 February 2017 Posted 25 February 2017 I'm not happy he's been sacked - but i'm not mortified like the rest of the world - and I would have lived with it if he had stayed (i think like most fans) and accepted relegation. But there are plus points to Ranieri's departure, that being we now actually have a concievable chance with a decent appointment of staying up - and that we might even with the right manager end up still having a few more epic games in the Champions League with the team playing the way we like - with passion. If "that" Leicester City turns up from last year who knows what will happen.

Monday, could be wrong though
dynamark Posted 25 February 2017 Posted 25 February 2017 Boy Jones you missed the New Road Inn they are all city fans in there including the owners .Get some opinion in there
JamesWelshFox Posted 25 February 2017 Posted 25 February 2017 I am sad that it had to end like this and hoped Claudio would find the answers to get us playing again. I can't believe that everyone else seems to think winning the league one season entitles a manager to a job for life and gives him the right to get a club relegated. All those fans of other clubs screaming at us are just taking the opportunity to have a go, and in our shoes would have expected their manager to be sacked too. Players come and go, managers come and go, with good management the club always remains and fans always remain. Our owners did the only thing they could for the good of the club and I respect them for that. I will always remember Claudio with fondness and similarly the players that won that title for us, but I don't put any of them above the wellbeing of my club who will always matter to me more. For these reasons I stand by my opinion that this was the right thing to do in the circumstances.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 25 February 2017 Posted 25 February 2017 Where's the, "didn't want him sacked, but understand why" option?
Jay Posted 25 February 2017 Posted 25 February 2017 I think most people agree that is a shame that it has had to end this way but the simple fact is that this season has been a total disaster for numerous reasons terrible summer recruitment, shocking pre season, terrible league form. We have been rubbish and you can't get away from that. was Claudio to blame for all of that? Probably not claudio is a wonderful man who has handled himself with dignity and humility at every stage the fact it something wasn't working anymore. A look at the league table at 5pm will probably show that the decision was justified.

Foxxed Posted 25 February 2017 Posted 25 February 2017 If the choice is either honourable relegation or ignoble survival, then I have to side with ignoble survival, because I doubted Ranieri's ability to break the revolt.

TeamRocket Posted 25 February 2017 Posted 25 February 2017 No had to go would have loved it if it worked for him purely cos he a class of man but he had to go the boat was going down faster then gravity pulling down. Wish all the best

I genuinely have yet to meet one person who is happy with the sacking. No doubt we will find out Monday night the fans feelings! I've not met one person who's happy he's gone either but I have met a few who felt he had to go or have accepted the decision due to the results. I think the most outraged people I've come across have been the more passive Leicester fans, those fans that follow the results and reports in the merc or listen on the radio who really got swept up with everything last season. I think the funniest I've heard however was the chap who rang in radio Leicester so outraged that he wasn't going to support us anymore, then 30 seconds later when questioned further admitted he'd only took any interest in us halfway through last season. Like ive said elsewhere, I was happy for him to see the season out, be given the chance to see if he could turn us around, I've never called for him to go, however I fully understand why the decision has been made and as much as it saddens me that it came to this I'll accept that decision.

FoxyPalace.com Posted 25 February 2017 Posted 25 February 2017 This sends out a message to the new manager, you will be given time but we expect results. Claudio from the bottom of my heart thank you.

Totally agree that we all have to get behind the team and the club from here on in. I've seen people on here saying they hope we get smashed by Liverpool so the players get what's coming to them and such though...THOSE are the people who are not the 'true' fans mate. I don't think anyone is 'happy' to see the back of him, i've not seen one person celebrating his sacking. At most i'd say people are relieved that the decision was made.

No because we seem to be sinking fast, our form has been a disaster, The players seem to have no confidence whatsoever, if we don't score on Monday it will be at least March before we score a league goal.
Babylon Posted 25 February 2017 Posted 25 February 2017 What sort of weirdo wants a manager gone and then changes their mind when it happens. Those voting are either crackpots or people who didn't want him gone in the first place.

This is the guy who was about as vitriolic as you can get about Pearson over the years.
Captain... Posted 25 February 2017 Posted 25 February 2017 I never called for him to be sacked, I dearly wanted him and the players to turn it around. When the news came through I was reluctantly in agreement, I don't regret it, yet. Ask again in 4/5 games and if we haven't improved then the sacking looks unforgivable. If the players turn it around under new management, then what is to regret?
