How could Sven have managed to win promotion ?

[ivarti]

if you lose home games against Millwall, Reading and Bristol City, you will never be able to convince anyone that you can go for a straight promotion. Sven had a team that could play fantastic football and made you believe that we were on the right course, and in the next game everything looked totally dark. This were going nowhere, and footballing people will understand why he is gone. The rest has not seen the path and the way he stumbled when he shouldn't have.

The fact that he chopped and changed both players and systems, made the dressing room unsettled and not being able to give his players the right messages is dangerous.

Sean St Ledger, Lee Peltier, John Pantsil, Neil Danns and Gelson Fernandez were all brought in with a view to something else than what has really happened.

I would have loved to see Sven at Leicester for a long time, but when results are so up and down in the first 13 games with a goal for promotion, then everyone knows it will not happen. The ups and downs is a pattern, and it was there last season as well, it will not just vanish by itself and Sven didn't have the "tools" to stop it during the 13 months he has been in charge.

So let's hope that the Thai owners can convince the City fanbase this time that they know what they are doing, if not it will be difficult to understand how they will be able to get this team on the right track. The chop and change must stop and a long term plan established.

The way forward is getting in a man that has the "balls" to tell the Thai owners that Leicester is not a ship that at this moment have what it takes to be consistant. It could take a bit of time to get everything sorted out, and be able to win your games at home, something Sven hasn't managed

Didn't we beat Derby, Southampton and Brighton at home?

And Sven needed the time too. Yeah he's had a couple of months, but when you're 2 points off the play-offs in OCTOBER, you don't go sacking your boss, especially when you've financially backed him, too. It's the owners own naivety to think we'd steam-roll this league.

The pattern is there to see, and it has been there since the first week. Sven has not managed to bring the stabillity needed and that convinced me that he would not be able to convince his players either.

[StanSP]

We were brilliant at being inconsistent. That's true.

But you can't say Sven and the players didn't pull out the stops in those matches where we won.

And there's no guarantee that any new manager will bring stability either.

Just a question, if we'd have beat Reading, Bristol City and Millwall but lost to Derby, Southampton and Brighton..would Sven have been sacked.
