'The most worrying is the complete disconnect with fans'

- Published

We asked you what you thought of Ruud van Nistelrooy's departure from Leicester City.
Here's what you had to say:
RJ: I feel we need somebody that won't shy away from difficult decisions, somebody that has a track record of being able to motivate, and sort out the deadwood. I think Sean Dyche is probably the best person. It saddens me to see the club in this state.
Nick: Ruud had to go, with his record. Get rid of the deadwood. Get Harry Winks back in midfield and give Liam Rosenior, a bright young coach to bring on all our very talented youngsters.
Chris: Right decision, awful timing. I suspect there have been negotiations with Ruud (this is "mutual consent", not an actual sacking) to reduce his pay-off and an agreement has just been reached. Otherwise the timing makes absolutely no sense. And please not Sean Dyche. My patience with and interest in the club I've supported for over 30 years is wearing very thin and that might be the straw which breaks this particular camel's back...
Chris in North Wales: It's strange why it has taken so long when everyone knew he wasn't the right man to bring us back up. You know what you are getting with Sean Dyche, the style won't please everyone but he has a good track record. The question is, how much money will he be have to play with, given PSR?
Neil: I think the club have taken far too long and treated Ruud really badly. I fear for the future with the news of King Powers financial troubles
Gary: The most worrying aspect in the last couple of years at Leicester City I feel is the complete disconnection with the supporters. Never has there been clarity or an explanation into the club's plans or directions. Nobody has come forward, held their hands up and accepted responsibility for this dire downturn in the club's fortunes. There has been no meetings, fan forums or explanation into the status quo. We are at the same point as 12 months ago, no manager with a possible points deduction looming. The club (or someone) needs to take control of the situation quickly; or we'll be sleepwalking down to League One.
Jim: Well, there you go! Those in charge have treated RVN shamefully. Could anyone have gotten any better from the players put together for the season. I doubt it. He should have been given 20 more games. Well he is better off without the job! Who next? Nigel Pearson; if he wants the job. Proven winner!
Steve: The people who really need to be sacked are still running the football club, and with King Power going bust and financial rules penalty points looming, our darkest days will soon be upon us. What a mess!
Ian: Too little, too late.. you could not write this mess in modern history. It's like taking big risks before preparing for a new season in one of the most competitive season in the Championship. Almost like leaving it last minute to climb Kilimanjaro or Everest. You need the right leader to manage a team to climb that mountain day by day. The club is like an oxygen tank supporting this group every step and like any Hollywood story the mad expedition boss in charge taking huge risks. Will we achieve that goal getting back to the Prem or are we doomed to fail at the first attempt? "Top of the world" or flop again!
