S-Clarke Posted 1 September, 2022 Share Posted 1 September, 2022 (edited) Leicester fans seem like they're about to explode. Rodgers has just thrown the club under the bus by saying it's hard to compete when the squad has had 'no help'. But then in the next interview, to the local press, he throws Soyuncu under the bus by saying that he's no where near the level required which is why they've been playing NdidI at CB. No mention of Vestergaard. They are in a right old mess, but it was coming. They lived a bit of a golden period, more than any of us could dream of. They're just going back to their norm.

Jimmy_D Posted 3 September, 2022 Share Posted 3 September, 2022 At the end of the day VAR itself is completely neutral. All it does is give the referee more time and more accurate information to make decisions. The fact they’re still getting it so wrong just goes to highlight how incompetent (or biased) the referees are. Also Peter Walton on BT Sport must be the most pointless job on TV. I don’t think I’ve seen him contradict a decision once. (And remember him changing to back up a decision turned over by VAR once after backing up the ref) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baird of the land Posted 3 September, 2022 Share Posted 3 September, 2022 var is a right mess outside of offsides. Results in massive inconsistincies in officiating with its backing up match officials across different games rather than trying to establish a consistent. At the other end of the spectrum you get the random points where it oddly decides to be more much interfering with bad results as today. Use of monitors is a joke. Just remove them if all they are is a delaying act of theatre. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OttawaSaint Posted 4 September, 2022 Share Posted 4 September, 2022 (edited) In my Mum's old house there was a big scuff on a cupboard door. It was caused by me throwing a chair in anger after Leicester got a late equalizer against us after we been 2-0 up and cruising. 1995 I think. I've hated that team ever since and that scuff would remind me each time. Hope they don't recover from this.

S-Clarke Posted 4 September, 2022 Share Posted 4 September, 2022 It strikes me that Leicester got a little too far up their own backsides, thinking they are always going to be/should always be competing for Europe. That's not just their fans, but the club as well - a little bit full of themselves, like we did under Les Reed. Big wake up call for them now. What they're doing now is probably more their level, mid-table here and there and getting dragged into relegation battles with potential relegations. They're pretty much identical to us in that sense, they just managed to get success during that period that all other fans of of clubs at their level will never, ever experience. It's never nice seeing your team get trashed though, there does seem a bit of a toxic feel there running from the top to the players. Rodgers looks spent, so the immediate change is probably going to be a new manager. I doubt it will get them back to where they were though, that's probably them done competing in the upper ends of this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
