Relegation

[StanSP]

Scarily close to 20th, let alone just the bottom 3.

[EnderbyFox]

This is all Rob Tanners fault imo 

[adejo92]

Credit to Rodgers though, he's managed to drag the club to such a slump that the majority of the fan base seem to be accepting of relegation.

his biggest achievment yet imo. congrats rodgers

Getting rid now would be perfect timing.  A run of easier games coming up where new manager bounce might propel us towards safety.  If he doesn't go this weekend I'm convinced relegation will happen.

[Guest glasgowfox]

Hate people that say told you so.....however, said at the start of the season that if we do not sign a decent keeper we are in big trouble......now we can't.....getting rid of rodgers now is a wate of time as any manager coming in can only use some of the second hand tools we have

We're toast. Not long left for a manager bounce to take effect. 

 

Just need someone to believe in the players. They look so done. Confidence is shot. 

Think it's last chance saloon now, with the international break coming up - new manager in for Palace?

 

Really think though it's too late now, should have sacked him months ago.

Hate these threads so close to a loss. Full of dummy-spitting. But, right now, it’s really hard to see us stopping the decline. There have to be three teams worse than us for survival, obviously. And I just don’t think there are. It’s not about being good on paper, it’s about putting it out there on the pitch. But we just don’t. Other teams do and have picked up results we can only dream of. Sorry for being so pessimistic, but really can’t see us turning this one around. I think we’re going. 😞

So much apathy in that stadium.
 

Only really Union FS and a smattering of L1 chanting for Rodgers out. Even those walking out were taking the easy option and unwilling to stay and take a stand.

 

We’re as gutless as a fanbase as the team is right now.

[Tielemans63]

We're going down. Our defence is mid-table championship and a League 1 goalkeeper. Great work Rodgers

Oh yes folks it happening were doomed

I don't believe this at all.

 

Confidence goes a long way and there's good players in there, we've seen it in previous seasons. Brendan has lost the dressing room as cliche as it sounds. We've seen it for ages. Maddison can come out and say what he wants but it's obvious on the pitch.

Ward is a mare believe it or not I can't think of a worse keeper in my 50 plus years watching city.

I envy your ability to forget Rab Douglas.

The "the club deserve and need relegation" crowd... I don't think you understand how ****ed we are (financially) if that happens. It's not like a "we need a reset" type of thing - that's such a ridiculously naive position to have. It's not like you even have to read between the lines to know this. You just have to read the actual lines.

It will be horrible. It will be ugly. But we'll scrape by....just. Over £500k per week in player wages will be going off the payroll come the end of the season. Bin-off Brendan and his big wage too. Parachute payments. Sell Maddison, Barnes and a few others with any value (it won't cost much to assemble a competitive squad at Championship level). Sell one of Belvoir Drive or Seagrave. Postpone the stadium expansion. Who am I kidding? I'm clutching at straws here aren't I? We're buggered.

Going for the treble

 

 

 

[Nod.E]

Following this club has become so joyless that I'm starting to question how much I would be bothered if we did get relegated. 

 

Every instinct tells me it's something I would be devastated about, but the more I think about it logically, I'm not sure. 

 

Do I really want to watch Rodgers blunder his was through another crop of talent for another year, while we play awful football, all against the backdrop of a terrible atmosphere? 

 

Is not having that next season a massive loss? Because that's what we get if we stay up.

 

Relegate the tosser and watch him squirm. I want heads to roll, top to bottom. That feels like a more productive outcome right now than staying in the premier league.

 

Maybe it's a coping mechanism, I'm not sure. But know this, we are so utterly fvcked.

[Livid]

I think we could be gone. 
 

I can’t see anyone wanting the job at this point. Rodgers sounded broken on RL earlier. Not one of the names mentioned are convincing me they could turn it around. 
 

We needed a better keeper than Danny Ward. We went all in on him last summer and he’s fell short. We’re still conceding too many soft goals for a number of reasons but a better keeper would have kept that number down. 
 

We have a team who don’t know how to roll their sleeves up and get stuck in. They are what they are. They are going to have to play their way out of this but I think everyone has their number, get one nil up and everyone behind the ball and pick us off. 
 

Of all the teams at the foot of the table I think we have the fewest reasons to be optimistic about staying up. 
 

in 14/15 we were unlucky that results weren’t going our way, but eventually we got there.

I don’t think anyone’s suggesting this is what we need ,merely trying to understand what the fcuk is going on when nearly all the fans can see as clear as day what is happening.

[blueharmie]

We've completed football and now we are destined for doom and gloom for years on end in the lower leagues.

[Guest Lcfc82]

Gone unless Rodgers is sacked, no chance he keeps us up

[yorkie1999]

Seems to me a lot of these players would benefit from playing in the championship. Vardy could eek out a couple more years against lesser defenders, Evans could outpace a few strikers and ward would be at his level.. edit, maybe not.

[Foxes99]

Was reading that ultras in italy see relegation as a way to clear away the glory hunters and part timers, leaving only the loyal supporters. Couldn’t be more true with our club since the great escape, i can guarantee we all know a load who didn’t give to fooks about leicester over the years, wouldn’t have even take a free ticket. But have now been firmly attending home games, jumping on the bandwagon for these glory years and now criticize the team fully like  on their insta feed as we haven’t beaten a top team. There all be gone if we’re relegated  and good riddance, back to our usual 21-23k attendance. That’s our real  base.

think we are heading down now, thought we'd have enough but nothing is changing, still playing Ward in goal, no matter how bad he is, Amartey is still a bomb scare too,

we are done
