No half-decent manager will come in for a team on the brink now when they can wait till the summer and likely be able to start fresh somewhere. Leeds had to go with about their 8th choice and Soton keep their interim, and we're weeks past when they fired their managers. I'm afraid it's going to take relegation for Top to wake up and realise that Brendan isn't perhaps as good as he and some of the media say he is! Even then, I think he might even think Rodgers might be the man to rebuild and get us back into the Premiership. Deluded Top doesn't seem to have the nous to run the club and the board must apparently be of a similar mind on the surface. £10m would have been a small price to pay to get rid of the charlatan bloodsucker compared to the 100m loss relegation could bring. 5
BillyFOX12 Posted 5 March 2023 Posted 5 March 2023 I don't mind championship football if it meant that we're actually going to start taking shots on goal.

Drop Top a line I am sure he would be grateful for your insight as he won’t have realised this….he only runs a billion dollar business !
Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 5 March 2023 Popular Post Posted 5 March 2023 We've 7 points from the 10 PL games since the restart after the World Cup, and 6 of those have come from the new player bounce that is now long gone. We are so bollocksed it is actually astonishing. We'll not only go down without action, but we will quite possibly finish bottom. What a disgrace, its unforgivable. I don't give a single flying fcuk what this current manager or ownership have done in the past, this is diabolical and I'm not accepting any excuses for it. Relegation could bury us and I'm in no mood to accept that's just the law of averages at work. The whole place needs ripping apart and rebuilding. I hope there's some very unhappy employees and senior staff of Leicester City at the minute who can hold themselves accountable but seeing the way the club is being ran on and off the field, I highly doubt that. We are revolting. 15
LCFCJohn Posted 5 March 2023 Posted 5 March 2023 Literally got to the point that looking to next season, I’d rather be in the championship with a new manager in charge than in the PL with Rodgers in charge… Of course the preferred options are, he goes this morning and we stay up or even he somehow keeps us up and is gone in the summer. But if staying up means he stays, it will just delay the inevitable to next season so would rather it just happens this season. The unspeakable fifth thing that could happen is he takes us down and stays to preside over a campaign in the Championship but that doesn’t bare thinking about…

Thrill Bert Fox Posted 5 March 2023 Posted 5 March 2023 He lost the plot at the beginning of the season and never really got over that. Board spent too much on new training ground and nothing on the Team. Yesterday against Southampton was a big game for me a chance to show passion, pace and a plan. We did not of these things so I feel unless we inject some new management which I cannot see them doing we will go down.
CyprusFox Posted 5 March 2023 Posted 5 March 2023 What worries me is the calibre of the players we can keep, or attract to the club if we do get relegated. Will be a completely different "summer reset" to anything resembling the one we were hoping for.

There will be a world of players from the Football League and overseas leagues we can attract that would be low cost. I have confidence in Glover and what he could do. I actually find the prospect quite exciting to be honest!
nnfox Posted 5 March 2023 Posted 5 March 2023 Home form will be key. I'm optimistic that we can stay up. We have 7 home games left, 5 of them against teams around us. Our destiny is well within our own hands - the players need to step up as does the manager, no doubt, but the fans do too. Make it the noisy KP that we once loved! Pretty much all the other teams at the bottom end have a fair few games against top half teams at home, with the exception of Palace and Wolves.

Mickyblueeyes Posted 5 March 2023 Posted 5 March 2023 Definitely going down. Badly run football club. Bad owner Bad leadership Bad manager Bad players (except Maddison who is currently a rolls Royce stuck in a Fiat Punto showroom). All the markings of a team going down. We’ve let ourselves go so badly that we’d be no loss to this league. Both teams yesterday had some glory days but it’s over no, when you don’t stay on top of your project use ridiculous excuses and fail to compete you can’t sit at the top table.
coolhandfox Posted 5 March 2023 Posted 5 March 2023 Still fixable if the club act quickly, only two league games to play in March give the chance for a new manager to have time on the training ground.

hebangsthedrums Posted 5 March 2023 Posted 5 March 2023 I don't want to go down, the championship is so hard to get out of. But as painful as it may be, I just want now whatever outcome to this season that gets Rodgers out, even if its losing every single remaining game. His post match interview yesterday nearly made my head burst with anger.
honeybradger Posted 5 March 2023 Posted 5 March 2023 9 hours ago, leicesterseddon said: I have some sympathy - because it’s hard to turn on a bloke that was in charge when we won the FA Cup and finished 5th twice in a row. I’ve always argued that his achievements at Leicester (which are laudable and should not be downplayed) meant that he deserved time to turn it around when we started to struggle last year. Unfortunately though, he’s had enough time and shown he can’t improve the situation. It’s a real shame. But there are very few managers that can reinvent a team past four years in charge. Ideally the fans wouldn’t have to turn on him at all, because he’s been a great manager for us when you zoom out a bit. But the owners made a fateful mistake by giving him that mega contract and now seem unable to back out of it, even though the drop-off is obvious for all to see. If we get relegated, considering the squad he inherited then on balance he will have been a bad manager for us despite the FA cup. That's my opinion at least, I'm sure a few on here will disagree.
JimmyC74 Posted 5 March 2023 Posted 5 March 2023 Top 8 player wage bill One off the highest paid coaches outside top4 Elite training ground There can be no excuses for the level of underperformance this season collectively and by several individuals. NOW is the time to act!!!!! 2
STEVIE B Posted 5 March 2023 Posted 5 March 2023 We’re still about 6/1 to go down. 33/1 to finish bottom. That seems very generous to me. Are we slipping under their radars ? 1

Spudulike Posted 5 March 2023 Posted 5 March 2023 I keep hearing this phrase Sleepwalking into relegation. Really? The manager is awake, so are the players, so is King Power. But they have had plenty of chances to do something about it and have failed. If the S'hampton result isn't enough to spark a reaction then nothing will. We are going down. We are a club in crisis. 2 1

They are a multi-million pound business. They are awake but can't or won't do anything about it. Lack of action or even a plan has brought us to this situation. It's a mystery why this has been allowed to happen.

To me it smacks of blind faith tbh and that is the definition of insanity in this situation. Not sane at all, we need a change of manager.
