Would love to see how different he’d act without police presence and a barricade. Silly little soldier.

Silent. In one still image I can see he’s pent a lot up. Seek help

Can some people that actually care go protest at the ground? I will happily join. Do it in front of the statue for all I care - Vichai would never have stood for this.

 

The silence at full time was sickening. I've about shredded my throat singing songs about Rodgers getting the boot, and people around me looked at me like I was insane.

 

This whole club is fvching poison right now. I want my Leicester back.

This is a massive problem in our fanbase, many will give you dodgy looks and are clearly ok being relegated .. oh and “we should be lucky to have Rodgers” you are literally killing our club 

 

A lot of our fans have completely lost the plot unfortunately

There wasn’t much not caring about Leicester from the Forest lot today again

[Parafox]

WHAT IS HE DOING?

 

Even he doesn't know.

[daddylonglegs]

The worst thing about all of this is there’s not even a sniff of change. Be it the manager, be it transfers. 
 

The club is accepting an absolute failure & it’s going to set us back years.

I don't know where to start with today, it was just so predictable and yet so infuriating that we managed to be every bit as bad as our worst fears and then some.

 

I briefly thought we stood half a chance when I saw the style of play we went with in the opening part of the 1st half, looking to go direct and run the channels and not dither on the ball at the back for the sake of it but 2nd half and especially when we were 1-0 down it returned in a vengeance and the players seem to find comfort and solace in it. They never look that disgusted or disgruntled when they go behind, if anything it's like they encourage it as any efforts to attack or put in maximum energy stops when we have to try and get back in to the game.

 

It is truly astonishing that if the opposition scores first this season that we haven't overturned the defecit once, not once in over half a season. It's utterly mind blowing.

 

I'm at a loss with those subs he made as well, Lewis Brunt looked like he'd won a competition to go on a date with a celebrity and I know Luke Thomas was abysmal as well but the entire side looked so disjointed when he came on. It felt like we were playing with 4 right wingers in Castagne, Praet, Tielemans and Iheanacho and then had absolutely nothing on the left side of the pitch whenever the ball was pitch there.

 

We must be the easiest team in the country to defend against when we go a goal behind, its staggering how bad we are at creating chances from crosses and yet every game without fail the opposition will have 2-3 good chances from the same phases of play.

 

Wilfred Ndidi was diabolical again, he's always been the pits on the ball but at least his tackling and ability to screen the midfield remained strong and yet that's vanished, he cannot tackle, he's a nuisance. I'm at the point where I never ever want to have to watch him ever again if this is now his standard.

 

Awful awful performance, surely Rodgers doesn't survive this. Top has to take action, or at the very least have some bollocks and speak out about this crisis. He's on the verge of taking us in to oblivion and although some fans would let him ruin the club and still back him, as self proclaimed custodians of this football club then he's responsibilities he needs to adhere to and act.

How can i know when the team is announced that Thomas will cost us and be targetted? I don't get paid millions a year. 

 

The subs were indicative of this man. Make no mistake

Also people bleating about how they had more connection with our crap Championship sides can bugger off - our sides from 04-08  didn't win the hearts and minds of our fanbase as plucky underdogs who gave it their all. They're by and large forgettable sides with forgettable players, if they're lucky enough they're notable for taking us down to the third tier.

 

We are *dogshit* and there's very little to back at the moment - but the faux romanticism about our dour mid-00s Championship days as if they were perennial triers is absolute rubbish. Not having it.

I agree. The Holloway, Levein, Megson years were about as much fun as having a boil on your sphincter lanced with a rusty nail (I imagine ) but perhaps with hindsight it seemed more acceptable as we knew that the playing personnel were dross and they weren’t earning circa £50k plus a week.

I’d dislike them even if we weren’t rivals. Such gimpy retro replica wearing, perm-haired fannies. Madri club.

Totally this. Once I'd understood the grammar built out of your frustration.

Spot on. I think this must come from increasing expectations though.

As you say, when we were naff, it was great when we got an unexpected win. And they were teams you could warm to. We just didn’t expect them to do much so when they did, it was great.

Now, we have a bunch of overpaid primadonnas who are so far removed from ‘the fans’ that I can’t warm to any of them. And if our wage bill is to be believed, for some of the rubbish we have, it’s obscene really.

The good times are ending. I think we need to now come to terms with this. Even if we stay up, we’ll lose Maddison and Tielemans in the summer, probably re-sign Amartey on a five year contract abd 50k per week, and sign some obscure players from Europe that can’t come to terms with the pace of the Premiership.

I’d genuinely have no qualms about being relegated, getting in a tougher manager and rebuilding.

The alternative without any plan or idea, is another 2-3 years of this before going down anyway, the player that don’t wanna leave and take a pay cut soon do when a club is in the championship.

that’s a goodie

[cruzFOX]

What makes it even more painful is like the last game Perez put a peach of a cross for Vardy who spoons it than today youre puts it on a plate for barnes who spoons it we know he can score those opportunities easily. If you see barnes body language it’s totally off he lacks conviction in front of goal. His technique and approach is poor

We can’t even afford to yank him out of the team. Why is he struggling? Where’s the care the passion the mental steel to do something.

But we were still paying players very very handsomely for that level? We weren't Scunny.

Going to bed before midnight without alcohol trying to sleep through the wife's horrendous snoring and being woken by next door's reverse bleep alarm on his electric self satisfying car could not make me feel any worse than watching that pile of shi8e.

The much maligned Albrighton was one of our better players. At least he was busy and trying to create something.

Like Vardy, I guess he must be looking back at the Halcyon days of 2016 and wondering what the Hell is going on.
