21/22 is the winner. We backed Bodgers and let him bring in a bunch of players and didn’t make any sales to balance the books. That was the big gamble - we “invested” in the team more than usual, under the assumption Champions League was basically a dead cert. Our recruitment was gash, and the squad was bigger and more expensive than ever before. 22/23 catastrophe unfolds specifically because of the actions taken in 21/22. We racked up the losses, then found ourselves unable to balance the books because we didn’t have any Euro revenue streams, and were reluctant or unable to offload players of value… we had a bloated squad on outrageous wages, and limited means to reign it in. If we had cashed in on Tielemans in 21/22, or spent appropriately when we didn’t, I don’t think we’re quite as limited at the start of 22/23 and might have been able to do more of a refresh for the little troll who was trying to talk himself out of a job. Although he still would’ve spat his dummy out and set us on the path to relegation but we wouldn’t have had as much of a bloated squad, and a bit more room to manoeuvre on the finance front. Maybe with better finances we’d have coughed up for his severance earlier than we did. 21/22 - Backing Bodgers, filling the squad full of bollocks. The undisputed winner of the most significant cockup.

Absolutely, the Leicester 4-2-3-¼ that we’ve all come to know and love.

Marzipan dildo. -
Yessss, you love to see it. Handbags in the box, bust out a few reds; save us from ourselves for a few games!
-
Good defensive header by Aribo, made absolutely sure it cleared the bar. Oh.
-
Stick Okoli up there, or a 3-D printed life-sized Vardy statue. Try something!
-
Decent ball in, just needed a good touch at the back post. Shame it fell to one of our own players really.
-
Not to worry lads, Jordan will be on soon to rescue our season.
-
You’re getting Mukasa and Reid for Stiffy and James.

Our season in a nutshell. Golden opportunity, spurned. Time and time again.

Who? -
It was more or less inevitable. We didn’t have a manager. We left it until deadline day to do any business. Has that ever worked out for us? No forward planning, just reacting. As always. We need to do something now that something else has happened. Sack the manger… done that, guess we need to think about hiring another one? But first, let’s play horses and jockeys. We sat there, fat, happy and dumb watching the season fall apart and we only seem to have clued in that we should try doing something on deadline day. Clueless.

Scenes in the directors box on the final day when we stay up on goals scored thanks to the appeal reducing the points deduction from six to four. Ha. Who am I kidding. They won’t be there.

There’s got to be a useless twat out of contract in four months that we could sign to be that guy next season.

Ayew. Expected nothing. Somehow ended up with less. -

Highlight of the season was keeping the ball in on the touchline and then basically leaving it behind. Class. -
He’s no Smithies.
-
We’re 22nd, that’s basically all of them.
-
Get Jamaal or Aluko on and send Okoli up top. In this day and age, there’s no need for Jordan ‘the worm’ Ayew to come on. For anyone. Ever. The sooner we stop having to watch him wriggle about on the floor, the better.
-
Oh good. Here comes Jordan.
-
Perfectly avoidable yellow.

Just casually leaving a man with twenty yards of space on the far side of the box.
