Rodgers future (post Brighton defeat)

[Rock Fox]

Thanks Jeff. I said I'm no lawyer!

"Better call Saul" if we're going to reach a settlement with BR

It’ll be interesting if the club has evidence he’s been using his office as a meth lab

His team selection and tactics suggests he has been heavily indulging in his own supply.

He must have been giving some to Top/Susan/Jon as well.

Not sure who has the bigger ego and victim complex, Walter or Brendog.

The good old Daily Racist. ****ing unbelievable that this rag is allowed to continue.

Yep, "they all look the same."

 

[bigmattp]

Who’s that inset pic and why?

It's the vice-chairman - so nearly right

 

[H T B]

On Sky earlier, talking about the BR situation said, if we sack him we owe him, but if he goes early, he has to pay us.

Not heard that before, so maybe sitting around the table could be good for both sides,

 

[FryattFox]

Why would he have to pay us? Return a loyalty bonus?

I won't believe it until @Brown Nose has told me what da streetz are saying.

 

[Jeff]

Why would he have to pay us?

He signed a long contract. Can't just get out of it without paying compensation. Unless he comes to an agreement with the club.

Well we definitely won’t be sacking him right now, at least until Chelsea have made their appointment (and then Brighton if they go for Potter)

Just in case either of them have a complete brain fart and consider him for the job - given his negative behaviour over recent weeks, and obviously the godawful performances and results, I can’t see that either of them will touch him with a ****ing barge pole

He won’t be thinking that, though - in Brendan’s head they’ll both be falling over themselves to get him in

He's heavily incentivised to get himself paid out here. I imagine he's mostly thinking about that.

 

[Brown Nose]

If Potter goes to Chelsea, Rodgers will have outlasted 16% of PL managers this season already.

I think Rodgers to Brighton would be on the cards. He's still got some stock, they want to win something, he's got a shiny FA Cup in recent years.

Won't happen. Not a big enough upgrade.

Well, I'm not so sure. Stranger management appointments have been made and, like I say, I still think with many, his stock is quite high. They will see him as a potential cup winner.

 

[popillius]

I may be getting over excited however....

 

[homer]

Brighton pay Potter **** all, which is why he would jump at a proper wage anywhere

No indication that they would pay the ridiculous salary that we pay Rodgers - or they would have given it to Potter
No indication either that they are stupid enough to appoint him

 

[Blue Maniac]

Remember when Nige went to Hull? Weird.

I know the reported manager salaries are subject to variables. For example many have performance based elements.

However, reported PL sites show Rodgers is on five times what Potter is on (£2m vs. £10m).

Not a prayer that Brighton would pay anyone close to what he'd demand. Rodgers would rather sit on his arse in his Cheshire mansion for three years collecting his contract from us than take a job at £2m a year.
