If we win or draw how many will now support Rodgers

[John12345]

CURRENT Rodgers is a shockingly bad manager by anyone's metric. 

 

So he's gonna get pilloried on a fan forum. 

 

What will be interesting is if he wins a game or two.

Rodgers could win every game between now and then and I wouldn’t support him

That’s a bit silly isn’t it? We want what’s best for team, not the fans opinions, no? I get he is unpopular but he ain’t here to be our mate or win the most votes is he?

Yes if we start playing well and results pick up, I couldn't give a fuc* about his likeability.

 

Pep seems a pretty unpleasant guy.

A good result unlikely Cooper knows our weaknesses but even if we scraped a win it's down to the players not Rodgers so a no from me.

He could win the next ten games on the spin and he’d still need to go. He’s shown his true colours.

Leicester picked up 2 points of possible 18 in the 2019/20 season from the same games played against Southampton, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham, Brighton and Man Utd, so Brendan Rodgers should be safe and under no pressure at all. People who can count and understand that getting all these fixtures after each other could be difficult. Fans are mostly idiots without any clear vision, owners are desperate and do not understand football. Leicester is in a difficult situation and hopefully a win will happen on Monday, or else we would see Brendan Rodgers head on a platter. He is the best football coach in Britain and knows the game in and out. Roy Hodgson or Big Sam is not what we are wishing for, but that might be the solution because other men will demand more than they can get from the current owners at the club.

Not sure I agree with you on this Kolo.

I think you are right, but not in the head.

One of the worst things about this scenario is the knowledge that even an absolute battering of Forest would be tainted for me.

 

We win 5-0 and the unbearable pr!ck will be lauded a genius for getting a tune out of a 'depleted' squad. 

 

Not that it'll happen anyway, but the prospect of not being able to fully enjoy a potential battering of our rivals to the full is pretty sad.

If it does happen..

Simply enjoy...

Simples..

We probably could scrape a win but it wouldn’t be good enough. Being bottom of the league with a -12 goals deficit is not good enough.

 

Get Rodgers gone, if Top is harping onto the past it’s a sad indictment. Fact is we have regressed the players are good enough barring the GK but the style of play is what will see us relegated. We need to go back to basics with a steady manager: I would sooner have Dyche now, I would prefer a higher caliber manager but beggars cannot be choosers so we just need to make a change.

I’ve got this feeling of dread that he’s got the safest job in football regardless of any results before the World Cup. Would not surprise me to see him outlast Large, Cooper and possibly even Klopp 

[st albans fox]

If it was just the results then the vast majority of the fans would be behind him 

 

He has made his bed over the past six months and he will have to lie in it. If results improve then we will be right behind the boys but the coach is still past his sell by date and has to go when we can get a good replacement in.

Klopp is only leaving liverpool in the next six months if Germany are eliminated in the group stages and their coach sacked …

Always easy to go after someone who doesnt fall in line with what you want - I get it

 

I'm sorry, but people on here who say "I dont care what happens, I ONLY WANT RODGERS GONE!." are not fans.

People who say "I dont/wont watch until I GET WHAT I WANT!" are not fans.

 

Those are called Fairweather or Bandwagon fans. 

They will come around when things are going good and go on and on about how they were here during the bad times.  Well, those bad times are here now - and where the hell are they?

Let me guess, they only support during certain types of bad times.  Like during our 3 losses during the 2015/2016 season.  Anything more than that is "Too much to bear"

Yeah. Not fans.

I thought 'ivarti''s post was provocative, but yours tops it.

Rodgers will not turn it round - not a cat in hell's chance. We're in miracle territory now - with a manager devoid of a ideas and holding on for no other reason than his need to walk away with his severance pay and his self-esteem.

The executive is also losing credibility as every other day passes.

Spare us the "I'm sorry" stuff. You just want to take a swipe at the realists amongst us. Remember that we don't have a say in how this club is run so, is it not our right to be vexed when manager and board appear to have forgotten both fans and players while they play brinkmanship? You talk about fans being fairweather. It appears to me that there's an ample sprinkling of fairweather on the side of management, club and certain uncommitted players. I don't blame anyone of the team who wants to get out of this toxic atmosphere, but there are one or two who stay around as it suits them, not the club.

So, rail against those fellow fans who you feel don't meet your standard if you will, but don't forget the bungling that has brought us to this disastrous point.

His ability as a coach is one thing - his entry into the politics of the club is another 

he asked for more control and got it 

 

he has failed on so many fronts in that respect 

 

but ultimately, it’s his commenting on running of the club that will have forced the owners into looking for a replacement

I reached a point of not caring about where we are with Rodgers as I don’t want to see my club relegated. I’m going to be there tomorrow supporting as we need to so we get out of this mess and actually start winning.

You should care because reality is we will get relegated under Rodgers. 
 

Even the likes of Bournemouth and Fulham are 8 and 10 points ahead of us! So we are playing catch up with those teams that’s us producing a 4 game winning run which is unlikely so on that basis Rodgers Out!

[phoneticerror]

I won’t support him again, but I’m also sick of the whole situation now. Just going to support the lads each week and won’t be looking at the turd standing near the dugout.

I dont see my response as attacking.  Simply stating an observation that certain posters on here are not fans.  That's different than questioning someone's intellect, or taking shots at the screen name.

What you and I are doing is having a disagreement, and a discussion.  IMO, that's what fans do.  We don't call each other names, and we don't resort to personal insults.

 

Look, I get the frustration.  I get wanting Rodgers replaced.  What I don't get is people inundating this forum with shots at Rodgers - and I'm not just talking about the Football threads.  Its everywhere, by the same people .  Its old.  Its tiring.  It honestly makes me wonder if this is where I should be.

I watch all the games.  I live in the US, so that means I get up at 4 or 5am a lot in order to watch them play.  I get frustrated when they play bad - which admittedly is a lot these days.  

Do you know what I don't do?  I don't come on here, beat my chest and proudly proclaim that I "no longer watch".  Repeatedly.  If you don't want to watch, don't.  But to be more proud about not watching, than watching just reeks of Fairweather to me.

I don't come on here and say that I will only watch again when certain criteria that I demand is met.  Really?  You're only a fan if A, B and C happen?  When it doesn't, you're a disruption?

That is just not a fan to me.  Sorry.

 

I'm curious.

What makes a fan to you?  More importantly, what makes someone a non-fan in your eyes?

What would someone have to say or do, for you to look at them and say "yeah, they are not a fan"?

Well you’ve answered your own question about ‘real fans’ haven’t you really?

 

Do not take this as a personal attack, but getting up at 4/5am in the USA is vastly different to ploughing in hundreds, if not thousands of £ of your hard earned wages, the time taken out of family life, the annual leave used, fuel prices, hotel prices, just to attend the football. The football that’s ‘ ‘managed’ by someone totally clueless, the inevitability about each match. The diabolically boring football we’ve now played the last 12 months (Warsaw away was just over a year ago) 

 

I’ve voted with my feet and I’m actually happy that I’ve done so. Before that point I was there in the bad times and the good. I’ve never felt such hatred for a manager of our own and it goes way beyond deserting the club because we’re not winning 😂

 

Having said that, it’s probably time to accept the manager is a cnut, but start turning up to support the players before we turn into Derby County MKII

Top says STAY 

You’ll wilfully have your mind made up by someone other than yourself who has evidently got this wrong on so many levels, despite the fact you disagree. I’m sorry but that is so silly.

It does not matter if it is madness in your eyes, it is true. To suspect otherwise is just wrong, worse conceited, because as fans we can think x, y,  or z all we like, but what Top says goes.

 

I have said many times I would prefer him to go (of late at least) but so what? Unless Top comes to that conclusion he is here.

 

If he remains in his post, I will back him and the players, when he goes, will back the next manager, the next players.

I think we are waiting for a club to come in a take him off us to try and save some money on the contract but thats a risky game if results carry on

Hopefully the club have spent the international break identifying the man they want to bring in and the fact Top will be here means Brendan will be gone by Tuesday morning and the replacement lined up to come in and take over. 
 

I say that regardless of the result on Monday night

The only manager worth going for would be Mancini doubt he will want to come here though.

 

Other alternatives Poch, Thomas and Dyche.. Poch (Unlikely would be a good appointment though) Thomas and Dyche wouldn't be any better than Rodgers imo. 

[Matt_Lcfc]

Football is a fickle game, but no, I won’t change my mind. He is finished here, managers rarely turn this predicament around. I can’t think of clubs that have turned toxic due to bad results / poor decisions and powered up the table under the same management, it rarely happens.

 

All this is pretty irrelevant mind, I’ve said this countless times, but I don’t think we will pick any points up until he is sacked. Forest are rubbish, which makes it even more frustrating as with a good manager, we would turn them over easily. 
 

Even if we miraculously win tomorrow night, it will be paper over the cracks. A bit of Maddison brilliance, possibly. 
 

But, my opening statement stands. Even if we got a few wins on the board, I wouldn’t change my mind, utterly disillusioned with his football.

I’ve come to this conclusion.

 

As you say not only is it a risky game it always raises even more questions about our financial state but also our ambition.
