Steve Cooper SACKED! OFFICIAL!

[kingfox]

Fair play to the board for pulling the trigger early on this one, what we didn’t want was another Rodgers situation. 
 

Was hoping Cooper would delve into his history of developing youth, unfortunately we didn’t see any of that, put that together with plenty of dire performances, the sack was the only option. 
 

Think the next manager needs to be a good organiser, the defence is the key component that needs fixing. 

[FoxesFourLife]

Big thing for me is we need to keep Andy Hughes at the club we look solid defending set pieces and more dangerous attacking with them we were woeful in the premier league before.

2 wins and we were dreadful across 90 minutes of those two games.

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

They’ll have to edit out that bit in the pregame video where Serge mentions Cooper 

[LFox99]

spotted him in the car park, not taken the sacking well

[Gazza M]

The first goal yesterday looked like it was out of an U11's match. So school boy. Never seen a professional outfit go long with both CB in the penalty area still. Playing the opposition 50 yards onside.

What with half the squad away?

Yeah so they could have spent a week working with the other half and then the following week getting the squad ready for Chelsea couldn't they? That would probably have been quite nice

[FrankieADZ]

what I dont get is, why didnt they do it during the international break, would have been the ideal time to make a change

[The Quick Brown Fox]

Oh no. Gutted, who we going to get in that's better?

[Chico1958]

After yesterday's performance I had to agree we were not progressing under SC.

To be honest he didn't stand a chance from Day One.

Hopefully we can now move on. 

I will say though, Two Weeks Wasted by the Board.

Thank the ****ing lord. One of the worst managers in our history. Genuinely awful. Don't let him near another football team. Expect coventry.

🤔 Ian Holloway? Frank McClintock? Peter Taylor?

[purpleronnie]

Great, we'll be calling for the sack of the next one pretty soon.

[UniFox21]

Interesting everyone seems to have been briefed the same - not a knee jerk reaction and has been under consideration.

 

Few referencing he wasn't first choice and Potter basically having the job till the last moment

I'm sure he'll struggle to buy groceries now... 

Judging by his lack of ability to manage a football team I’d tend to agree that the lad might need some help with the big shop.

Just got the message from my brother and ran to here to make sure it was true 😄 

[Pliskin]

His appointment made sense at the time, because we were somewhat of a lost cause given the potential points deductions, however, with that no longer being an issue the goalposts have moved. I do feel a bit sorry for him, but he just wasn’t the right fit, he clearly hadn’t got the lads on board, and you’re pissing into the wind if you haven’t at least got that. Genuinely wish him all the best going forward, I’m sure he will get another job better suited for him.

Strange timing as you'd think they'd have done it before the international break. Can't help but feel the players, or certain players, may have had a hand in this. If so, then good on them, sometimes the players need to stand up and make the people at the top known if things aren't right. Bad news for some of them though is that they may get binned pretty quick by a new manager if they don't improve performances soon

The better players would not have been here.

what do you even mean by this. For once the board have made the correct decision here.

[JonnyBoy]

Incredible news. But strange timing after international break.. hopefully got someone lined up. I couldn’t stand watching another game of 11 headless chickens 

[Joe_1992]

Not even that bothered about this. Best manager in the world wouldn’t keep this team up.

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Should never have been in the job in the first place. Completely out his depth and a chasm between him and his predecessor. 

 

Don't trust the gimps running the show to get the next one right mind.

[Monk]

Into the dustbin of failed Leicester city managers you go. Along with Megson, Allen, Holloway et al.
