He definitely wears a FFP2 mask whilst golfing alone

Absolute Clown ! Played poorly for so long with the same players that ripped up trees few seasons back. The players have admitted they have been shit, now it’s time for Brendan to play his part the scoundrel.

In equal measurements, there's not enough pressure on the board / owner. We all see the issue re: Rudkin, yet he's both involved in conducting a review of the season and we are also led to believe that he's in London interviewing for a new Manager. That is beyond comprehension 

[BenTheFox]

The board kept him in place for far too long when they had the power to change it. I feel far more anger towards them at the moment. 

[Qwerty]

I can't recall the journalist but I read a report that listed the reasons for our failure this season.  It included the money stuff, but also stated that Rodgers had made some dubious decisions, particularly playing Amartey and side-lining Cags, who at the time was back in the team and clearly demonstrating that Rodgers had been lying when he said Cags wasn't good enough.  

 

I think it's significant that the club have let Amartey go, with seemingly no attempts at offering him a new contract.  That speaks volumes, and begs the question - if the board knew he wasn't good enough, why didn't someone challenge Rodgers when he kept playing him?!!  Very frustrating.

We've all seen the shite Rodgers' media friends have been spewing since we got relegated. Journalists and pundits saying he wasn't backed or that we would have stayed up if we didn't sack him. 

 

Has anyone seen Rodgers called out or blamed in the media yet?

The bloke was an absolute 🔔end he thought he was Billy big balls better than everyone at the club his Ego to blame everyone else but himself is a joke he demoralised criticised the players in front of the media, blaming them for the poor results when in fact it was his own doing alienating players lying blaming their fitness as the issue when in fact they were as fit as Fuch.

 

Rodgers started off great a couple of top 5 finishes an Fa cup & Charity shield ( Thank you for those !) then went nose diving after the 4-0 thumping by Forest he then blamed every player for his incompetent inadequate egotistical behaviour his slating of the players was unacceptable, no wonder our players lost confidence in their abilities not also being played out of positions but playing dreadful formations slagging them off it was totally inappropriate and unacceptable and should have been sacked then !

 

You could see what kind of season we were going to have when he refused to make a substitution on our first game against Brentford on a warm day  until a late single substitution was a token gesture, even tho we were ahead Thomas Franck changed 5 players which pushed them on to draw the game from 2-0 down a few extra minutes we would have lost that game our players looked exhausted yet HRH Brendan Fuching Rodgers refused to make more substitutions because he was apparently protesting about not being backed in the summer transfer window !

 

So yes I’ll call him out he is the catalyst that caused our demise from Premier League Champs to Premier League Chumps, and the board need also to hold their collective hands up too as they should of sacked him months before they did absolutely incompetence personified now we’re in the Championship and have to rebuild to get back to the big time Hope Top can find the funds to rebuild our great club !!

He wasn't backed last summer but talk about throwing your toys out of the pram. A good manager wouldn't have let this out to the media but he pretty much slated the squad which I'm convinced was the reason for our abysmal start to the season. 

I read this or last week that he came back thinking the out of contract boys would be on their way and he'd have some cash.

But thats when he should have been bigger, acting like a kid who had had his toys taken away, the majority of managers on more than one occasion have to deal with not having the transfer budget they hoped for and dealing with it.

Brentford 1 sub @ 2-0 & 2-1, when it was chuffing hot and Frank brings on 5, that 2pts would have kept us up!!  

Multiple times we had righted the ship, pre world cup 5 wins and a draw in 8, then Villa & Tottenham in Feb.

But his job is to make players better, he just didn't, one of the main comments by the press is how did THAT squad get relegated, he was integral to that a team that last year was 8th & a Euro semi final.

Mid table mediocrity for the manager at best, too worried about his own image, sadly.

A 10 minute explore on Google to Rodgers and his son Aaron, their links and background speaks volumes.

 

I was told by the father of a first team player that money was/is Rodgers God.

 

His life is about making as much money as possible by lying, pushing brand Brendan and spewing out the same copy and paste tactics that the sports media swallow and call him 'elite'

Same. Part of me wants his name tarnished outside the club. But the board, Rudkin and Top are to blame.

 

If you give someone your car and let them joyride it then your incompetence is to blame for the crash.

 

It beggars belief that they let it go on for so long when it was clear what he was doing.

As bad as Rodgers was he couldn't sack himself could he? Totally agree.

He tried pretty hard to sack himself didn't he - it began to look like he really didn't want to be there, and just wanted his massive pay-off, knowing he'd never be blamed in the media as the "lack of money" narrative was so prevalent.

Amartey was clap trap in reality and like Daka, is a Championship player at best. Yes, DA put in "a shift" when unexpectedly asked to start and all that (why wouldn't you if on £70-£80k a week?!) but it should never have come to that unnecessary compromise in the first place with personality issues between Rodgers and Soyuncu being the sole reason as to why Amartey started so many games last season....probably more times than he did for the previous four seasons put together. No surprise that he's not being retained though, even though he was the third longest serving player behind Vardy and Albrighton of course....

Part of me thinks that he wanted to sabotage the start to the season in order to make the point to the board, thinking once he got his way he'd easily win enough games for the club to meet its targets. Some of the decisions especially in the first 10 games or so were mindboggling, as you mentioned with the Brentford game it was clear we were drained after 70 minutes.

I think that was definitely his plan, I also think he had a similar plan after the World Cup break to ensure he got reinforcements in January, he did but unfortunately I think the rot has truly set in and he couldn’t then recover the situation.

Its time to put this to bed really, we had 1000 pages before he cleared off and nothing that can be said about the man has been missed. Otherwise we will still be going on about it in ten years time alongside our 250th. failed attempt to find a "right winger". The next era of LCFC begins now and there is plenty of work to do.

how about a right footed right winger to get to the bye line when  championship clubs park a bus in front of us?

Here we are 3 years later and we still don't have a right Winger. It's not as if it's hard to find a natural right Winger.

 

The man hadn't a clue about picking players.

[UniFox21]

Having just listened to Ben fosters pod on the season just gone; I'm actually baffled by how stupid some people so close to football can be.

"Tubes" spouting absolute rubbish and you can see why no serious show has ever picked him up.

Let me guess. He thinks we'd have stayed up if we'd kept Brendan?

Exactly what you think if you look at the club without actually looking
