Now, the 49-year-old former Liverpool manager is under intense pressure from fans to exit his role as the manager of the club.
In some desperate attempts to get their message across to the management of the club, some fans have reportedly pranked the club by sending “sack Rodgers” messages in some funny but significant way.
One fan is said to have submitted a request to have a birthday message displayed for the name “Brenda Nout” in Leicester’s game with Crystal Palace this weekend at the King Power Stadium.
The fan ended up having his £20 payment refunded as the club refused to grant his request.
Another Leicester City supporter had reportedly toed the same line sending one off for “Zak Rodgers.” His request was also quashed.
Despite Rodger’s poor result at the club, Leicester City management is reportedly not keen on sacking their manager as things stand.
The club has now banned all birthday messages after the shift in the attitude of the fans toward Brendan Rodgers.
Rodgers won the FA Cup last season for Leicester City, the club’s first time winning the trophy.
He finished 8th in the Premier League table, but Leicester have fallen this season and rocked the bottom of the table after nine Premier League matches.
