He wanted out but Top wouldn't give him the compensation for a mutual severance agreement that protects Brand Brendan. My Father lives in a village just minutes away from Wysall, just outside of Loughborough, where Rodgers lived. A friend of his who lives in the village said to him that his wife didn't feel comfortable with people knowing they were living there and not giving them much privacy and wanted to live closer to her family in the north-west. 1

To be fair (I know it’s hard when you hate someone so much) but if I, or anyone on here, was due a severance upon termination of a contract - NO ONE would accept a penny less than what they felt they deserved (contractually). 7

I don't 'hate someone so much', just piecing together the time line of when it all started to unravel. Of course he would want maximum payout (he's a professional) but the potential cost of relegation far outweighs any severance package. Perhaps a lesson learned by King Power. 1

His wife missed her family all the way through COVID understandably. Nothing sinister behind it at all. 2

A little bit miffed that if we do go down his reputation won’t be as tarred. Absolutely fuming his pundit pals are saying he wasn’t backed. Buying players he wanted such as Perez at a complete premium meant we shifted away from our philosophy. The initial outlay and wages overtime for the Perez’s in the squad completely hamstrung our last two windows, in addition to the impact of the pandemic. Wish more pundits had a backbone. I’m not annoyed at Rodgers the man, but Rodgers the manager completely suck any atmosphere out the stadium, any desire out of the players, and any invention out of the squad. OMG. Really? I'm confused by your post. His manager "head" is him totally, there is no difference, he's not Dr Jackle and Mr Hyde. His personality of being a self-centered, egotistical, narcissisic, blame shifting, PR Machine and also a sh1t manager is the whole package. I'm not having a pop, and if I've miss interprepretted something I'll get my apology in early. You are also a better person than me as I certainly won't be "wishing him the best" and just ecstatic he's finally gone. 6

I took your last line of “Brand Brendan” as someone having another go I’m sure KP knew the pitfalls of a contract “buyout”. It’s something you have to offer, or no one would sign one with you. So while it was a pain this go round, the next manager will also have one.

Popular Post Mickyblueeyes Posted 3 April 2023 Popular Post Posted 3 April 2023 The only way to shut these idiotic comments up is for us to stay up in style. A few goals from Daka. Ndidi get back to being the destructive enforcer we loved. Cags just playing and Iverson being Kasper Mk II. We go down, Brand Brendan wins. 5

Wasn't a surprise to me after hearing how much he's been up Brendan's arse on Soccer Saturday that he has his mobile number. I think one of Brendan's tactics through the years has been to acquaint pundits from various platforms to be honest. You got to hand it to the ****er, he knows how to play the game.

shiv Posted 3 April 2023 Posted 3 April 2023 4 hours ago, Corky said: So disappointed with his antics this season. That pre-Man United interview where he threw his owners under the bus, the most loyal owners he'll ever have, to get the likes of Robbie Savage and Rio Ferdinand on side was disgraceful. His regular putting down of a squad that had significantly helped him finish highly and win trophies. The negative, defeatist attitude. The lack of anything substantially different on the pitch from the usual turgid stuff served up. That nonsense in the Brentford match on the opening day. Said it before that we needed a galvaniser this season, somebody prepared to dig in and accept things might not be exactly to their liking, but got the total opposite. He really can have no complaints. I hope, in private, he'll reflect on it. The irony of this is after the Southampton (A) loss he called for unity and said we should all “stick together”. The time to do that was the beginning of the season, not when he realised he ran out of excuses. 1

ScrumpyJack Posted 4 April 2023 Posted 4 April 2023 I’m not on the Socials, but I haven’t seen an article about the players thanking Rodgers, any of them post anything? If not, shows how toxic Rodgers’ relationship with the squad had gotten - but you won’t hear any of the pundits or journalists talk about it.
