Not sure how much he is on but it is being reported it is the highest ever in football history!
-
it could be the signing of the window for us!

i thought he might have been a Palace fan in the Leicester end as it seemed odd timing, but yeah very bizarre and to be honest if anything ever did happen i wouldnt fancy our stewards to sort anything! They were all useless!

Exactly. Why not start Daka and get him some minutes, potential form and give Vardy some actual competition. -

Butchers meat is better no doubt about it as they will buy from local sources. Ashfields chicken comes from the same as most other supermarkets and will all come from the same place Two Sisters Food Group (they own so many food manufacturing sites including Bernard Matthews) - Morrisons are slightly different as they have their own farms etc. So I buy the majority of my meat from either the local Butchers or Morrisons. Nothing wrong with Aldi's at all but it you dont have to look far to see what kinda factory / processing plants TSFG use.... -

It's pretty much the same, they buy huge volume compared to others as they are centrally managed compared to others that are either regionally or locally managed. They sell a lot at lower margins but sell vast amounts compared to others. -

The majority are. for example 90% of Aldi's biscuits are made by Fine Biscuit Company that own brands like foxes etc. People always wonder how Aldi get away with the designs being so close to the original, its because it is supplied and made by the same firms. So they really don't care how close their designs are as they are still selling product some brands want them as close as possible!. It is only the other retailers that get their legal teams involved. Brands have never pushed back. People wonder how the discounters do it cheaper than the other supermarkets it mainly down to volume they buy. Aldi in the UK are the 4th biggest (will over take Asda unless Asda pull their finger out soon!) supermarket by market share but by volume of product sold they are 2nd behind Tesco! So their buying power is massive which obviously drives the price down as they buy more from the suppliers. The end of the day if you want a razor blades (Discounters are made by Wilkinson Sword BTW) you have 2 choices, top tier or bottom tier that's it. You go into Asda and you have about 6 six different choices. People also say the discounters fruit & Veg is what lets them down and they know it is but there is little they can do. If you think 80 ish % of fruit in the UK is imported. There is only so much that can be imported, someone like Delmonte will say we have 100 tonnes of bananas arriving on the 1st of the month, that then gets tendered to all retailers. The likes of Waitrose will pay the most so they the first shipment then M&S then Sainsburys and so on and by the time Aldi and Lidl get their pick they basically gets what is left. That obviously could be 3-4 days later than the others, so when it goes to store they sell it cheaper but it wont last as long. So the only way they can improve their F&V is to increase the price but they wont do that as people will go else where then. By wife finds it all so boring now but honestly it is a mad world when you get into it. -

There was absolutely no need to play Vardy, winks or Sourmare against QRP could of given them all the weekend off. Just like Palace did with a few of their key players. I agree with the rest though. -
he had scored in his last two games! He isnt good enough for this league, none of them are though thats the problem. I dont understand why they do start him on the other wing to at least try something different.

sorry to bust your bubble but there were clappers... Probably thought there werent as there was nothing to really clap! There is definitely a lot less of an uptake these days though, i think we will send the end of them by the end of the season. -

He had the perfect opportunity to rest players against QPR and didnt take it. Sorry but starting a 38 year old 3 times in a week isnt gonig to work. Played a full strength team against QPR to build some momentum.... worked out well didnt it! -

haha yeah i get quite a lot to be honest but is quite random! In the office we are currently working our way through about 500 packs of Aldi's version of Oreos! -
arsent we meant to have some class younger keepers in the ranks? Mads will go i dont think anyone will say he wont so for me if we stay up we need a new number 1 if we go down Jakob will be fine as a number 1 and then promote a youth as his number 2.

I work in the packaging world and work with retailers and their supply chains so I spend a lot of my time walking round food factories and find some fascinating but some definitely put you off eating certain products. I went to a 150 year biscuit factory that produce the majority of the discounters custard creams, eating a warm Custard cream that has just come off the production line was a right treat! if you want to know where any of Lidl or Aldi's products come from i know them all pretty much -
making a profit that has barely played for us?? Maybe we are starting to turn the corner...

Sheff Utd or Sunderland apparently.

likely to be the Monday night slot or the early Sunday kick off.

It is just more people trying to use social media to make a name for themselves. It has worked up until now but they they just look daft. Maguire is a uni lecturer too, imagine his students are really impressed with him looking like a prat in the national press. -

if we go down its because we arent good enough as a club. The players, manager and the board. Its that simple. We arent in a good place currently but we have stuck to the rules by the sounds of things. The board is toxic and does need a shake up but its not going to happen - especially now. We jsut need to support the 11 on the pitch rather than finding fault constantly. -
just do what they used to do, get his family on the payroll, if he is that good there is ways to keep these players...
