    Gollum's Dad

    sacked by Leicester.

    Anyone surprised? I'm not-they sacked Ranieri the season after he won them the league, ffs.

    Mind, no love for Leicester. Dubravka said everyone hated them because their players were such cunts,

    Anyway...there's a fella at the SMBs who could maybe step up for them...

    I don't know what they expect?

    They're a nothing club that came from no where and lives the dream. They were never a concern for the Cartel as they don't have the clout, global support/fanbase or domestic footprint to be a sustained top 4 team.

    I don't mean to be disrespectful to Leicester, they achieved the unbelievable. However, everyone knew that it was not going to sustain a long term challenge to the establishment. It was always going to be a Cinderella story.

    They're not in the bottom 3 and there are worse clubs than them, probably shouldn't have sold Dewsbury-Hall to Chelsea. They'd be mid table if that were the case.

    Ranieri should have been given stock and a seat on the board for what he did for them.

    He should be their manager to this day. That's the reason they are a little club and will never be a contender long term.

    One of their fans commented "Cooper should never have got the job, he's not a Premier League Calibre Manager."

    I replied, "Leicester are not a Premier League Calibre Club."

    You can imagine how well that went down hahaha F them!

    Quite surprising since they let him spend a fortune in summer - but we've hit that time of year.

    Former toon coach Ben Dawson in temp charge.

    I do wonder if they are going to go for Ruud van Nistelrooy, feels a bit coincidental he leaves Man Utd and they sack Cooper in same week.
