WOW, we're such an annoying team, we go on runs of beating everyone, playing fantastic football and then we lose 5 in a row not long after, and repeat!

Annoyed I sold my Spurs ticket now, but I promised her a day/night out for valentines weekend, should have taken her out the weekend of the Forest game instead a few weeks back.

I'm just looking at 36 points for now, obtain that and we've got a good chance of staying up and rebuilding in the summer. Tielemans and Maddison will be off, but we need to properly reinvest the Maddison fee. 4 more wins needed.

Yes. Fantastic turnout by the team against Spurs. Pity we can't play like that all the time.
I mean, how hard can it be?

Random ticket checks coming for LCFC supporters, meaning you need to take your ID with you and collect your ticket at away games selected at random.

The customer relations at this football club really at the worst in the league.

Set up for 0-0, went 1-0 down, never had any intention of going for it. 1 shot in 90 minutes, 0 shots on target, spineless performance and a waste of my day.

Yep. We have absolutely no bite up front whatsoever. Without Maddo we seem to lack interest. Barnes never seemed to be in the right position either.
The atmosphere was lacking too.

Literally dunno what to say anymore, the manager is clueless, evidently the owner is clueless as well. The PR at the club is dreadful, they're now coming after home fans and trying to dish out bans as well.

I've never ever said this before but after decades of support I'm close to jacking it all in, at least until he's gone. Sadly I've already got Brentford tickets purchased.

If it takes relegation to get rid of this clown of a manager, I'd actually take that.

My son is a big fan, we've got tickets for the Chelsea game.

Trying to get "you're both getting sacked in the morning" to scan is not easy.

You think you have got it bad. We have become a laughing stock. We have declined so far over the last 4 years it is embarrassing.
Like you I have had enough. I have stopped going to away games and I have missed more home games this season than I have over the last 10 years.
Touch and go if I renew next season.

We deserve to go down, the blame lies solely with the chairman and Rodgers.

Our fans are pathetic, we should be up in arms at Chelsea at the weekend but they’ll clap them off even if we don’t have a shot on target, myself will be the lone voice shouting for him to go.

Rogers never looks disappointed in the post match interviews after losing. And the reason he never looks disappointed is because he actually ISN'T disappointed.
He doesn't give a flying sh*t. There's no passion, no emotion and no regret as to what just happened on the pitch.
He's loaded to the hilt and he knows that if he gets the push he'll be even more loaded.
We're stuck.

We have the money mate, we bid 20m or so for Jack Harrison and offered him 100k a week. This is purely because Top is blindly loyal to Rodgers.

It would seem that, every time the team puts together a couple of wins and starts to feel comfortable, they give up trying....until the next crisis!

Brendan Rogers after the game - the players gave everything, if they perform like that for the rest of the season they'll be fine...

Mmm. Ok.

Full on PR mode and has been for 18 months. Not been supported financially, the fans fault for not getting behind the players, injuries, you name the excuse and he's used it.

After the first 12 months this bloke will become the worst manager your football club has had, God help whoever gets him next.

He hasn't used Vestegaard for ages and he's pretty poor in a high line anyway, but fellow fans have always said he doesn't pick the players to buy etc.
Well Vestegaard has come out last week and said Rodgers spent 18 months on the phone to him tryna convince him to come to LCFC biglaugh

The bloke has set this football club back about a decade, and our daft chairman will probably still want to keep him as our Championship manager.

I only saw the highlights on MOTD - which I accept can sometimes give a misleading view - but on the basis of clear chances created it looked like you should have won the game by at least a couple of goals and on another day would probably have more come away with a pretty comfortable win. Maybe that's where Rodgers was coming from?

But this only ever gets mentioned when we've had a couple of chances and not taken them. What about having 1 shot in 90 minutes against Arsenal at home? What about no shots on target in 2 games? Of course you have off days, the law of averages says this will just about even itself up over the course of a season.

We had 4 shots on target against Villa and scored 4 goals, nothing was mentioned about luck or anything that day.

When we get outplayed by Blackburn for 90 minutes, the media and the world are silent.

The fact remains this bloke has spend over 300m on players, and the only one who holds down a regular spot in the starting 11 is Tielemans.

All our fantastic players who were being linked with 50-75m moves to the top clubs are now worth zero, he's destroyed them. Cags will move on a free this summer to Atletico, was a 50m player just 24 months ago. Ndidi has regularly been linked with other top clubs, he's been poor for ages, we'll be lucky to get 10m for him.

We're 15th in the league table for xG goals, should have 28, we've scored 36, so we're actually overperforming in terms of goals scored massively.

Thought we were set up quite well against Chelsea and played well for much of the game.
It didn't affect the outcome though. I don't know what the answer is.

Sacking him is the only option we can try now.

If he’s in charge for the Palace game then we’re down.

I’m absolutely furious at the ownership of this club, heads should roll.

I sold my ticket yesterday, knew it would be a waste of a day. Sadly going Brentford next weekend, another loss beckons.

Not sure how you still had 11 men on the pitch after 2 mins. That horror tackle on Felix was a straight red all day long.

Andre Marriner was awful for both teams. Amarty could have gone for his foul on Havertz, didn't even get a yellow. And Enzo committed a poor challenge on Maddison just outside the area, ref didn't even give a free kick!!
