I was one of those that didn’t like cooper but willing to let him try but he lost his way and nothing was improving. So I became a supporter of Ruud hoping he will inject some fresh energy into this lot who appeared to be protesting for exactly that a change. Now here we are again looking for another change. Is it the players is it the manager is it both? We all know behind the scenes it’s a mess and they seem untouchable. With Ruud it’s not just the fact we are losing but how we are losing. We might as well not have a manager in charge. As for when he will get the chop - I think he has to make his position absolutely untenable ie, we lose a game 9-0 and set a new disastrous record. Then it will happen.

do we have a plan in place for that outcome probably not. It will get handed to the assistant coach as usual till the end of the season.

I really didn't like the Cooper era, but i remember posting a few times that regardless how horrible the football was, we very rarely seemed to be out of games. Maybe method to the madness? I remember thinking that he would very likely keep us up but we would have to strengthen and move on next season. We seemed to be able to get the odd draw to keep the points ticking along, and seemed to score most games. But, i hated going to games. I was very surprised when he was sacked as i felt the shortcomings of the players would have been well known throughout the whole club and this season would have been seen as 'stay up at all costs'. It seems Top still thought we could emulate Man City and be a top half team.

 

I was excited when Ruud joined. Thought the West Ham game was good and the come back against Brighton felt like we had some fight in us. But my god, what has happened since? It feels something is seriously wrong everywhere. It feels like noone, from the manager, to the players, to the board, actually wants to win. It feels like a weird social experiment to see who out of all of us breaks first. It didn't feel like this under Cooper.

 

I went to the West Ham game. It's the worst display i've seen from us. Barely running, no skill and little plan. I thought West Ham were pretty crap as well, but they were just gifted 2 goals and didnt have to try. The players and the manager barely acknowledged us being there.  

 

I don't think they are going to sack him. If they don't, I would actually like some info from the club on what is going on. The press leaks are painful to read, and come across as immature, and feel like they are coming from inside the club to discredit the players. Maybe some at the club think this is the best way of moving them on at the end of the season.  If they are going to give Ruud the rebuild, the club need to be inventive in ways to give us reassurance that this decision makes sense. Because right now, it feels like noone is actually doing anything.

 

We slept walked into the last relegation. That hasnt happened this time. Right now it feel like we are self harming and not looking for help.

He isn't going anywhere.  There's an air of acceptance around the club of relegation, the culture absolutely honks.  It actually makes no sense to get rid of RVN now.  Nobody half decent will jump aboard a sinking ship.  Names that have previously been mentioned by folk on here that didn't come here with either a whole season to look forward to, or two thirds of a premier league season to go, aren't going to come here for 10 games and certain relegation.

 

We need to rebuild, but first we have to knock the building down.  If Ruud wants to stay here (and it's a big if) then if he wants to have input into shaping the team over the summer, then I say let him do it.   Believe me, there are about 10 players I'd want to get rid of before we get another crap manager.

It's going to be difficult to attract any manager, it was hard in 2023 after Rodgers was sacked. Nobody wanted the job hence why we ended up with Deano Smith. At least back then we had better players that may give any manager some hope of a possible turn round but even then no decent manager fancied it. Whilst with this set of players...

Looking forward to us wasting the week off and sacking him after the Chelsea game.

He won’t get sacked after the Chelsea game whatever the outcome is.

Well that’s not true is it. If we lost 10-0 then he would go. A big and embarrassing thrashing and he would most certainly be gone

He wouldn’t. Why? Because the board know this is on them.

Board are a total f—k up. Won’t sack him because we will have to pay money. No decent manager will come because of RUDKIN

What I don't understand is why trust someone with a rebuild who has taken the club backwards and had us not score a goal in the last 6 home games. 

 

I mean on that logic get Cooper back for the rebuild as he was a tad less dog poo.

I'd actually take Big Sam at this point. 

RVN walked into thi mess ,and he wasn't backed by the board, if the board had said there is no money for the January transfer window, then I believe that RVN wouldn't have taken the job .

I wonder whether we've inserted a relegation break clause, but we'd not be that sensible.

Do you think there is anyone sensible involved with Leicester City Football Club?

 

It would have been sensible not to sign Wout Faes, renew Lurches contract, sign the worlds worst Brazilian, sign Souttar, extend Choudhary, sign and sell Cannon, Sign Skipp, sign Ayew, sign BDCR, but here we are!!

That’s a valid reason, but it doesn’t give him an excuse for the complete lack of in game management and or tactical decisions that are leaving a lot to be desired. He is literally doing nothing to change things and expecting miracles that things are going to click.

RVN was lucky to get the job

He shouldn’t even be here……complete novice…..non league calibre manager

 + losing out on 80m + worth of player sales by letting them go on frees. 
 

The club is an absolute mess.
