I never said I thought they would either. Perhaps I should have done an ERNEST and put 'IF' in VERY BIG letters..................

I never said you did either . I was only expressing my opinion and I was even supporting your notion of being a YoYo club for a couple of years if that were to happen

That decision shows just how absolutely shite modern football has become.

Fair enough - yes, I agree you did. I was too focussed on the 'constant struggling' bit.

Warburton could do a job IMHO.

He should have kept the same squad together as last season and not sold probably their best play maker, if it ain't broke etc.

He could get game time now and should have anyway.

Kante was the only major departure. How much choice do you think Ranieri had when Chelsea came knocking and offered to triple his wages?

With what was at stake I would have tried to at least match the offer.

Sure, but thats probably not Ranieri's call. Its not like they needed the money. I'm 100% sure Ranieri would've loved to have kept Kante, but we all know what happens when a players head is turned.
None of us would've been blaming Hughton if Stephens had gone to Burnley last summer. Ultimately, its not the managers choice these days.

At least he will get a bumper payoff, that should ease the pain and he will be back somewhere of that I have no doubt.
Would be ironic if Hudds manager gets the job and Ranieri takes his position !

This just proves what a horrible club Leicester are.....buying promotion in the early "naughties/2002ish) with money they had not got, going into administration, failing to repay their debts....then, after being bought out by rich Thais, allowed Sven Goran-Eriksson to splurge a ridiculous amount of money to finish 10th in the Championship then finally seeing the ODIOUS Pearson get them promoted...but only after flouting the FFP rules.
Fantastic achievement to win the PL title.....but people have short memories about what went on in the 10/15 years leading up to it.

Dyche was strongly rumoured to be in line for the Sunderland job after Burnley were relegated but at the last-minute, thankfully for Burnley, Advocaat changed his mind and came back for a second spell at Sunderland. I'm convinced Dyche would now be manager at comfortably mid-table Sunderland if Advocaat had not done a U-turn.

Re Burnley: If we do lose every game for the rest of the season, there is NO WAY Burnley would sack Dyche.

On his last warning
So you reckon Dyche would leave you if a better deal comes in for him?

Yes, if he thought it was the RIGHT club - maybe someone like Villa or Wolves.

Fingers crossed they now sink down through the leagues. What they deserve after that. And to think before yesterday everyone quite liked them

Sad reflection on football, the long term security that the Leicester board refer to appears to mean about 1 season.... Brighton are showing what you can do with a reasonably settled squad and the continuity that comes witha manager having multiple seasons.
