Thanks Brendan ..... you useless f....

[trabuch]

Just bumping this thread. This **** cannot be allowed to get away with it. 

[Blue ROI]

Elite manager. Improves young players

 

If you exclude Bennett,Bertrand,Vestergaard,Soumare,Daka

 

Ward, Soyuncu

 

The heavy beatings.

 

But he wasn't backed Etc

[shailen]

His attitude and mannerisms caused a confidence crisis in the squad and a few bad results and the mentality dropped. 

 

Then we looked arrogant enough to think we'd play our way out of danger, making mistake after mistake. 

 

Dean Smith has improved us and that says everything. 

 

**** you Brendan!! 

[Matt]

He should have gone 2 years ago - Yes, before/after the FA Cup win. "Entitled" much? I don't give a ****, writing was on the wall at that very early stage league form wise.

 

Not doing so is one thing and can be argued.

 

He should have gone at the end of last season.

 

Not doing so, hmmmm, ok, if you must have faith in him.

 

He should have gone a few games into this season. When you see Scott Parker getting sacked for saying less than what Rodgers did around the narrative of not being backed, along with the other bullshit.

 

At that stage it shifts, enough is enough, the board are culpable, they had more than enough chances, more than enough warning signs.

The board are always to blame as only they have the power to remove the manager, the  only question is at what level that board level failure occurred.

[funkyrobot]

Two simple things that Rodgers did that cost us, without even analysing his tactical and motivational failings, was playing Ward and ostracising Soyuncu this season. These two decisions that the majority of us could see were absolute madness, have ultimately cost us Premier League status.

I'm going to keep a six pack of eggs to one side for when we get Spurs in the cup next year.

 

Even Peter Taylor didn't fall upwards like he's bound to do. CHARLATAN.

My feelings on this cretin are well published. If we'd have just let one of the north London mugs take him from us we'd still be a premier league club

[lcfcben76]

If there is a silver lining, it does appear that Brendan’s stock has dropped as a result.

 

Doesnt seem like he’s even really been considered for the Spurs job, really.

The only logical explanation I can come up with as to why he wasn't sacked is because they were hoping he'd walk. And in the end it seems he did walk after he'd left us in a near in impossible position to stay up. The board have some responsibility for our downfall but a very large proportion of blame lies with Brendan.

Should've sacked him Forest away, FA Cup. This season has played out the way the board has let it, you can't swallow the bullshit line about only knowing we were in danger this April.

That’s on Top , we now have let Forest surpass us as the top rated team in the East Midlands.

Which is one of the reasons we didn't sack him sooner.

[Mike Oxlong]

I’m going to give the media a miss for at least a week. Hearing that we royally ballsed it up but that Brendan is in now way to blame will make my piss boil 😡

People will come out amd bat for him in the media but the Top 6 clubs know he's damaged goods now.

I know pal, it's sad, but bravery takes many forms.  I don't know whether Khun would have still done it or top is too soft.

Don't blame Rodgers blame those above him.

Why? Did they instruct the clown to play sideways and backwards football, alienate players, sell Kasper and cover his arse by calling for a refresh.....then continue with his pound shop Pep football tactics?

It's all clear now from the Tanner/Percy articles - Rudkin vouched for Rodgers, Rudkin is to blame for him staying so long.

 

There was someone on here who said someone senior at the club was vouching for Rodgers - it was obviously Rudkin.

I bet he’s laughing his head off. Escapes any criticism from the media

I doubt he would have given BR that contract. I think he would have seen that dropping out of a CL place as a failure rather than as deserving of a reward. But it's all conjecture. There's so many what ifs.

[baileylcfc1001]

My take on Rodgers. He fell out with players who could have helped. He stuck with players he seemed to favour despite bad form. He was scared of  the big clubs, setting us up to be too negative. But. He was stitched up by the club. Surely he would not state that the squad needed a big shake up without being assured that was possible. Once he had said that it created a rift between him and the squad that he became stuck with. Finally. Why make a player captain who has made it clear he wants to leave. P.S. Should have gone much earlier.

Plus spending £15 million on Vestergaard, why?

Plenty of us on here were saying that continuing to play Ward will see us relegated, and those comments were made as early as august/september. Such negligence by the club it's unbelievable.
