Leicester sack Steve Cooper

So according to those in the know, it wasn't a kneejerk reaction and the club had been monitoring performances for a while. Which we means we waited until after the final international break to make a decision that everyone has known was inevitable for weeks, if not months.

The guy is the worst chairman in the.PL. Utterly incompetent to the point of dangerous.

If he doesn’t have another manager lined up immediately then the fans need to let him know exactly what they think of him at the next home game

As far as I’m concerned, this has been the best time to fire the manager. It’s ahead of a period where City might pick up ‘some’ points in a few matches throughout December (but likely suffer some heavy defeats in others), and give the lads a fighting chance of staying up.


I hope they think this new appointment through instead of rushing anyone in to try and steady the ship.

Surely before the international break is better than once you are back at it? Gives everyone a bit of time.

Yeah but we’re run like a circus and have been since 2019

By the way isn’t it weird how the two biggest supporters of Top (TB and Mersey) gone into hiding on here since the wheels have come off. Could be coincidental and maybe they have other genuine reasons for not posting - but the timing is uncanny

😂😂😂😂😂😂 That would be an appalling decision, so it’s bound to happen

I just wonder if they approached RVN as soon as he left man u last week???
Surely even our illustrious board must have a plan B??
Of course they had one after the Rodgers departure, didn't they.

Okay, so let’s assume there was a likelihood that Steve Cooper was going to be dismissed either ahead of or during the international break. You and I knew well yesterday was going to end up with City coming out of the match without a precious point on the board regardless of who was in charge-Steve Cooper or the makeshift team. Was this ‘last chance saloon’ for the boss and how would he stand today had we, miraculously, come out of it with a draw or even a win?

I think Wayne might be persuaded to move up from the Championship. Frank is also available isn't he? What about the chap who's doing rather well at Celtic?

That is if we're looking for another pick likely to end in disaster.

Just had a shocking thought.
Anyone but Southgate.
