    That's twice in two seasons that the current Champions have sacked their manager!

    I smell a big mistake from this one ..... one that may linger the Foxes right out of Europe and the Premier . To sack him before the 2nd leg with Seville is almost laughable . And if they were going to sack him sack him after our last game with them and give the new guy a few weeks to put his spin on the team in training .

    Sorry mate but that's absolute bollocks.

    Easy for a fan of a big club to say that. This club has worked it's arse off for the last 10 years to be in a stable position with an excellent squad worthy of being in the Premier League.

    No Leicester fan is willing to piss that up the wall for sentiment. The media love to make out like we'd all be fine with relegation. As though we owe the footballing world relegation for winning the league.

    These comments are incredibly patronising and it's really pissing me off.

    You've got a squad that bar Kante leaving won the premier league.

    You'd be back up in no time, Newcastle look like doing it with a **** squad and an **** manager.

    There seems to be a blind panic about going down but Leicester would get **** loads in parachute payments and still have the kudos of being very recent league champions.

    They'd be red hot favourites to come right back up.

    At least Spurs have made the effort to steal some of the headlines by going out of the Europa to a team no-one has heard of

    You can't say Leicester need to forget last season and then say that they can't sack Ranieri because of what he achieved last season.

    Something needed to change and the players wern't showing any kind of response to him after defeats. Stats are quite frankly shocking.

    Premier League in 2017:
    Scored: 0
    Conceded: 12
    Its no coincidence that Kante is about to win back to back premier league titles ...

    Agruably, we'd haveto shift more on that Newcastle did because some of our players are on champions wages.

    Those condemning the club are patronising and disrespectful.

    Basically what your saying is that we should live in the past, have no ambition and accept mediocrity.

    With respect, I don't want that for my club

  12. It was a true dilemma for you club, mate. Of that, there is no doubt in my mind.

    I don't pretend to tell you that I would have found either decision - keep him or sack him - an easy one to take.

    For every Newcastle there are plenty of Coventrys, Leeds, Forests, Villas, Sheffield Wednesdays, Blackburns etc.

    It's an arsehole of a league and i'm not about to sit through another 10 years of that ****e because of sentiment.

    I'm just fed up of people who know nothing judging mate, pisses me off. People don't realise it isn't just results, we are completely incompetent, cant defend or attack.
    All the do gooders slagging off the club would be first to want a change of manager if they and their club we in the EXACT same position

    Tbh they were only going one way with him at the helm.

    Now, if they appoint a specialist, they have a chance of staying up.

    His rhetoric recently has not been inspiring.

    Going to have to disagree with everyone saying ranieri should have gone.


    This is the exact sort of move i expected from sheikh mansour or a roman abramovic. The sort of soulless move you would expect from a ruthless owner.


    Ranieri has just done the impossible, raised the clubs profile to great heights not just by winning the league but by his gentlemanly presence.


    Hes not even in the relegation zone. people said the same of big sam nigel pearson but they did the impossible at the end and kept their teams up.

    Anyway no one knows if ranieri will keep them up now but im guessing most the neutrals will want them to go down. From being the neutrals team of last year i bet they are now public enemy number 1.

    When chelsea looked like jose was taking them down i felt sentiment should have kept him in charge to at least turn it around.

    Leicester have shown that they are a soulless club and i for one wont be sad if you go down now

    So we should be happy losing 3-0 every week, not getting out our own half and getting relegated without a fight?

    Did you think pearson was going to keep you up when you guys were bottom at christmas?

    Do you think sunderland will go down every season?

    Prior to klopp winning at spurs did you think he should get sacked as they hadn't wont in 2017?

    No one knows if ranieri would have turned it around but if anyone should have been given the chance it was the guy who achieved the impossible. You guys were relegation favourites last year and you could argue that this is your true position. Anyway whats done is done but just know that you guys are as ruthless as the money clubs and that you are now the publics enemy number 1

    Although a poster like yourself would and should know better , I feel the loss of certain players and your run in Europe are the two contributing factors to you're demise .. not so much Raineri , although he should have known who to bring in and how to change with the outgoing players leavings gaps in you're game . Regardless , good luck the rest of the way , Domestic and Europe .
