Popular Post Guest Posted 1 January Popular Post Posted 1 January "It's not actually down to me, it's these other things you can't see that I can't tell you about" - ah fair play, carry on then mate. Part of me is optimistic that if he's getting cryptic and starting to make little digs at the fans it'll hasten his departure, and maybe that's his thinking too, but that doesn't account for just how little of a shit our board give. No point going all Enzo at Chelsea and trying to provoke the owner into sacking you when there's a good chance he doesn't even know we had a game tonight. 7 1
brookfox Posted 1 January Posted 1 January We feel very similar as a club to Man Utd. Culture all wrong, lots of well paid players underperforming, series of managers coming in giving cryptic messages but failing. Would a different manager do better, you’d hope so. But it’s clear our problems run much deeper than this guy and it’s such a shame. 1

Blanchflower78 Posted 1 January Posted 1 January I suspect hes just insinuating the financial plight of the club and harsh reality of that. Nothing more.
GorlestonFox Posted 1 January Posted 1 January Things I can't say.. "The board know we have a points deduction incoming as well as a transfer embargo. King Power are selling up."
Stuntman_Mike Posted 1 January Posted 1 January Talks of consistency, yet we've found it. We've been shit all season. Wonder what that means Marti?
st albans fox Posted 1 January Posted 1 January 19 minutes ago, Product of 84 said: So many possibilities 1. He has already been relieved of his position. 2. We can't pay the players. 3. The club knows our points deduction and it effectively relegates us. 4. Lots of players leaving once the transfer window opens. 5. Players not willing to play as they hope they will get a move. 6. A big dressing room bust up. 7. The club has been put up for sale. Who knows but it's worrying when all the above is a possibility. all of them ?
beepee1984 Posted 1 January Posted 1 January Surprise surprise he understands the fans anger. Yet he’ll do nothing! He said it shouldn’t take them scoring 2 goals for us to show up Erm no one turned up then 0.15 xG for a team that chased the game for 55+ minutes is completely unacceptable for the squad we have He made no attempt to manage the team or game, no tactical changes and watched completely passive 2

elangLCFC Posted 1 January Posted 1 January 8 minutes ago, HarryTheGenie said: He needs to go. That much is clear. However the bigger issue is the fact that the Owner and Director of Football can't select anyone noteworthy. This goes back through all of the King Power years in all honesty. If you look through every appointment they've made, apart from realising the mistake in sacking Pearson the first time and bringing him back, every other appointment has been a questionable... Sven - big name disaster Ranieri - Lucky pick (probably only got the job because Vichai was a Chelsea fan) and long term fell apart Shakespeare - picked with emotion attached Puel - Boring, painful, egotisical Rodgers - self-obsessed, image obsessed, took too much control and dismantled successful recruitment for his own ends, the real begin on the current decline Smith - Bad choice considering others who could of done better short term at that time, could of been OK if given 3 more games. Maresca - selfishlessly sold himself to the first highest bidder - only ever going to be short term. Cooper - Doomed to start with, cheap option, too hasty to sack RvN - poor, out of his depth, unproven Marti - cheap, out of his depth, clueless We hear alot about aura, great interviews, the people in charge of our football club seemingly always get the wool pulled over their eyes by snake oil salesmen. Either that or Rudkin is that paranoid about being outed as the fraud he is he scuppers any decent appointment in favour of poor ones so his authority remains unquestioned. I'm annoyed too, but this is some big time revisionism on some parts. Ranieri won the league, whatever happened afterwards, so that can't not be called a success. Puel was brought in to to do a job, which in hindsight was okay. Rogers got us playing some good stuff and we won an FA Cup under him. Maresca was up and down but ultimately won the Champ at the first time of asking. There's plenty to criticise the hierarchy about without resorting to making stuff up. 1

No matter who the manager is, winning the prem is not ever a disaster. Shake a spear, never given enough time, and in lots of peoples opinion he was the reason of the great escape. Enzo absolutely did the right thing leaving after a successful season, to better his career, he was also aware of the financial mess we were in, stuck firm and loyal for the chelsea pay off, and also made it a deal breaker that if he couldnt bring KDH he would not go! That sale got us out of the mess we were currently in. He would never wanted Kdh with the options he was walking into.. but the sale helped massively, he deserves some real credit.

To be fair to smith, he got us 8 points from 7 games, which would usually keep you above the trap zone. What done us was not acting quick enough to replace Rodgers (common theme) and letting slip 2 crucial home games with PE teachers in charge 4
lcfconionhead Posted 1 January Posted 1 January I assume Marti will be sacked with King taking over. Then we will be in the same situation again in 6 months. The manager is out of his depth but the players aren’t putting the effort in. Concerning times inside the club not that us fans will find out until it’s too late.
Mickyblueeyes Posted 1 January Posted 1 January Oh poor Marti and things he can’t tell us. Walk then bitch. If it’s so bad, walk. Because you’ve had half a season and not had one good all round performance. The absolute wasters we’ve had as managers for the last few years.

Philkeavo Posted 1 January Posted 1 January (edited) 1 hour ago, Phild said: On RL he said there's things happening within the club that he can't talk about or tell the fans and thats what is causing all the problems, inconsistencies and poor performances. A very strange thing to say when clearly he couldn't elaborate on it, and went onto to spout some crazy tactical diatribe as to the way Sheff Wed were so well set up tonight. Very weird and worrying interview. Definitely very weird and worrying if he said we were playing Sheff Wed Edited 1 January by Philkeavo

Good managers don't want to come here because of the reputation of the club. Nothing changes until King Power leave.
lgfualol Posted 1 January Posted 1 January He’s so shit I reckon Rudkin and Top are the ones picking the team and tactics, because how on earth can a manager be so shit?

There's plenty to criticise the hierarchy about without resorting to making stuff up. Puel - the bloke thought Demarai Gray was a better option up front than Jamie Vardy. On this alone, he should be recognised how poor he actually was. Rodgers - bottled top 4 twice, won FA Cup in mostly empty stadiums, built the current toxic, egotisical, spineless squad we are currently struggling to dismantle. All on mega money! What exactly has been made up? 1
