Well, the Blue Army want Rodgers to reach the summit – then keep us there as a top side. Obviously anyone in an industry strives to better themselves and to be higher paid in the pinnacle of positions. Yet it is rather odd for a person with a connection to Leicester to be advocating for losing a fine element.
