I will pay good money for someone to deep dive into the vaults and find someone who said Ruud was a good appointment

get looking!

my dads dead mate but it get you lol

Sorry mate. You know I was just having the laugh .

I wasn’t even thinking Leicester were going to be involved in all this when Cooper was still there

An absolutely catastrophic decision to sack him

 

[Saint Domingo]

12 hours without a goal.

Good job Van Nistlerooy is a young progressive manager who plays to win though.

Enjoying the demise of Leicester. Can't wait for the EFL to dry bum them next season.

Dyche didn’t score in 9 of his last 11. He’s not young or progressive.

The players ain't having him or his backroom staff are they.
None of them seem to have a clue what they're doing.
They are just strolling through games completely NEA.

 

[knowing your history]

Mad to think they weren’t even in the relegation zone when they sacked Cooper. They have probably been worse than Southampton since.

They were 5-6 points clear of Wolves in early December. Now look at the points difference between those two! Might have been above Palace aswell.

There should be a penalty for clubs that get relegated promoted continually. Not the umbrella payment.

Im no football expert - but even I could see what a daft idea RVN was. I couldnt figure the reasoning - because he had a minor caretaker bounce at Utd ?

It's funny how a big player name can turn brains to mush. Felt a bit like that with Lampard too.

To be fair to van Nistelrooy he did alright at PSV and he hasn't got much to work with at Leicester but yeah he's had a shocker and it seems his heart isn't in it either

Where is ForeverEverton???

Over a year ago and I listed him in the "Other mentions"

He wasn`t long out of PSV where he did very well and before he went to Utd... don`t see the issue here.

 

[MikeH72]

Speaking of terrible relegated teams and players, what has become of Ben Godfrey at Ipswich? Has he played a minute of football since that 6-0 defeat on his debut? I was assured he was going to go and keep them up at our expense.

Didn’t mention Dyche. Let it go.
