Relegation battle is ambitious 

Yesh it really is, I think we are the easiest team to navigate for nearly every team in the division. You can give us headstarts and you know unless we are at least 3 to the good that the game isn't lost, you can concede corners or free kicks not hittable direct in abundance and we are no danger of scoring, you can and will score every game and most likely multiple with corners and free kicks almost as dangerous as penalties. You can give us rhe ball in defence and set traps for us to make a pigs ear of it and then finally you can read the team sheet an hour before the game and see Danny Ward on it and even if the above were an over exaggeration, its 3 points guaranteed.

 

We are setting records for a reason and the past really has no relevance to the present or short term future for us under Brendan.

@Chocolate Teapot when are we likely to hear some news?

 

This tweet from Jake’s sums up my feelings.

 

I don’t take saying this lightly but #LCFC not taking this opportunity to sack Rodgers is a mistake by Top. His time is up - he knows it, as do players. There’s complete apathy around the club. This is a mid table squad sleep walking into a relegation battle unless it acts now.

Don't know mate. Might be a duff source tbh.

 

I'm starting to think our problems go much deeper than Rodgers and we may be just starting to see this.

I’d take Benitez til the end of the season to keep us up and sort our defence out, not sure I’d want him long term though

Right now I’d take Boris Johnson if I knew it would get Rodgers out

Let’s not go that far. I mean, I know Rodgers never takes responsibility and blames everything else, but Johnson is another level

That would be a stupid strategy. Any club that could afford his compensation package, wages and backroom staff wouldn't touch him with a barge pole.

It being a stupid strategy is on par with the decisions so far this season.

I honestly thought he'd be gone by now.  I expect he'll remain for the foreseeable future.

Just accidentally read the first page of this thread… how have things gone downhill so quickly!?

He will go, but they are probably in negotiations with their target and until that’s confirmed nothing will happen

Well there is always room for negotiations 

 

you don’t just accept the contact and pay up

 

You might suggest that you allow rodgers to resign and still take 70% of what he’s entitled to in order to appear to save his reputation and avoid a sacking 

 

things don’t have to be black and white and they rarely are when push comes to shove …..

 

...that was what was negotiated and both parties were happy to sign at the time!!!

Unless there was a pro-rata agreement, then you have no reason to negotiate. If I agree on a price with someone I expect that price to be adhered to as I would do myself.

There is no tarnishing his reputation, it is still heavily intact and the questions being asked are, why are we so entitled and Rodgers is far too good for us? As I said previously unless the contract was badly drafted and there is a legal loophole, there is no reason for a negotiated settlement.

  We have to accept that Top is not wishing to let him go, and is willing to give him the time to turn this all around. The relationship is probably a lot tighter than we knew, he probably sees Rodgers as a father figure, someone outside the family he can confide to.

With respect, your thoughts are more/less valid than mine 

 

I’m simply saying what happens in business - you’re always trying to save a few quid if its possible.

You can be certain that Rodgers lawyers have drawn up a watertight contract and unless he is feeling charitable, unlikely , he will hold the club to it. The delay is probably about how long he will give Top to pay it up. If we include interest on the amount he might give us a few years.

So as it seems likely that Rodgers will somehow still be here for the Notts Forest game, instead of singing "you're getting sacked in the morning", when the red shite inevitably score their first goal, can we sing, "you should have been sacked fvcking weeks ago", instead.

...that then circles back to the lack of money, which I do not agree is the case!!!
