Whether a new signing, change in manager can spark our season and be the catalyst is the question but carry on this way and we may well be looking down the table rather than up. Have you watched any of the games or seen the table and the trend in results?

phoneticerror Posted 16 January 2023 Posted 16 January 2023 (edited) I don’t see a way back now unless there is some drastic improvements with the amount of injured players, the attitude of those on the pitch and our leadership. Looking at the fixtures ahead, if we stay in this form I think we’d be lucky to get 15 more points, leaving us with 32. Edited 16 January 2023 by phoneticerror
john ridley Posted 16 January 2023 Posted 16 January 2023 Even on Hawksbee and Jacobs this afternoon they said we'd be safe ,not a mention of Rodgers being under any pressure,cant believe anyone outside of Leicester can be so out of touch .

lcfc278 Posted 16 January 2023 Posted 16 January 2023 Had a little bit too much free time this afternoon so had a go at doing a predictor for all of the fixtures until the end of the season (https://www.worldfootball.net/table_calculator/eng-premier-league/) This is how it ended up. Now bearing in mind I am in quite a pessimistic and negative state of mind with regards to Leicester atm I have probably been more biased against us with the predicted results so with that in mind I still think there's a good chance we can beat this!

Clubs like ours, they just pay lipservice too really, without having any real knowledge of what's going on. 2

Even if it did end like this, which i'd take, 22 losses from 38 games and 15th is 100% a sackable offence. He will easily convince this board and owner that it was inevitable though. 3
Blue-fox Posted 16 January 2023 Posted 16 January 2023 If we go down, and we have taken out loans against future premiership money which we won’t be getting, we will be ****ed😂 be like a pompey. 1

I was banned after a foul mouthed rant following our 1-1 draw to Colchester when we equalised late on in the relegation season. I've come full circle.

Spor on. We've gone completely under the radar. You could get 6/1, even 7s on us going down on Saturday morning......l had some of that, (not proud to admit it). Bookies & media have no idea what a mess we're in. Amazing really. 1
StanSP Posted 16 January 2023 Posted 16 January 2023 Did that predictor thing too Somehow. Somehow having us to stay up. Think it's the games in April that do it. Last day of the season, games include: Leicester vs West Ham Crystal Palace vs Forest Everton vs Bournemouth Fun!

That’s is so true, I’m at work near Rugby , all the football fans (none Leicester fans) there all keep saying ‘you’ll be OK’ ‘too good to go down’

Gazza M Posted 16 January 2023 Posted 16 January 2023 Looks like Rodgers is staying so just got to hope they are going to back him with 3 or 4 players. Might be too late by end of Jan though at this rate. Got to move heaven and earth as a collective to get at least 17th place and write off everything in the summer!

Is there any better fixture in football than a final day game against the always mid table palace 1
Lambert09 Posted 16 January 2023 Posted 16 January 2023 If after the next 5 games we are outside the relegation zone... we will be fine.

Tbh, if the final table looks anything like that come the end of the season it will probably go down as the worst PL season ever in terms of quality and the gulf between the top and bottom.

Yeah I’ve been listening today too and literally we aren’t being spoken about as relegation candidates. The focus has pretty much all been on Everton today, particularly in relation to the protests etc. Their fans seem to detest the owner, despite him having spent an absolute fortune on players. (Christ, how they’ve wasted money!!). It’s as if no-one in the media believes that Rodgers could take us down. Then again, I was reading a thread yesterday on FB (Leicester City Football Club I think) and the vast majority laid no blame at Rodgers’ door whatsoever. Our levels of apathy, from board through to fans, at LCFC, are the worst I’ve ever known having followed City for nearly 50 years. Edited 16 January 2023 by Col city fan

Issue is that some still feel like because we've had a good decade, they aren't allowed to complain. When we were a shambles in the mid-2000s, there was no one that had any credit in the bank and anyone was fair game for criticism.
fuchsntf Posted 16 January 2023 Posted 16 January 2023 One thing is for sure..We & other bottom 5-6 teams have to pick up unexpected points against top 6-8 teams. It depends which set of players have extra drive to twist their clubs fate… So getting on any particular set of permutations and Forum anxieties ( though natural)… I am going to sit back and enjoy,yes enjoy the scenario,if not the games… All those struggling teams don’t seem at present to accumalate 34-36pts, Now it’s a frantic chase to see if they can…& reach that coveted 40-42pts as quick as possible… 2-3 wise new player investments might get them (whoever that maybe) over the line… Like I said now to enjoy the Theater of it, why bother to be downhearted or totally frustrated…the answer will come knocking soon enough, and not one fan movement will change it… 1
