This is what you get though when the club says fans can't pass on tickets (or can't do so easily anyway) and when you're directed to use the resale platform, you can only do so a limited amount of times a season. A lot of these people don't want to give them up as they then know it will be a few years (potentially) before they can get them back. The club should make it easier for people to pass on their tickets - or the other end of the spectrum is monitoring what % of games they attend in a season and if it hits below a certain level, rule that they aren't eligible for renewal.

The thing is people have been saying this since game 5 or 6 this season, reality is we have 10 games left and it is rocking at their place. Them and Leeds are currently the 2 best teams in the league and we need a good sharp kick up our arses or we'll be ending up in the play-offs and I tell you now, I would not back us in the play-offs at all right now. Hoping there's a meeting at Seagrave with the players today to explain how big these next 10 games are and for them all to pull their fingers out.

Haven't parked around here for a long time as it used to take hours to get out afterwards. Has anyone noticed this has improved since since they opened up the road on to Saffron Lane?

That's sad news. Always seemed such a happy and nice guy on screen.
-
Fair enough - I'll be honest I chucked in the comment about bike lanes and junctions as it's all we ever seem to see in Leicester. Always some kind of roadworks or diversions and traffic due to temporary works it feels like that's where all the money goes in this city. Happy to be corrected though.

You only have to follow one or two of the councils on LinkedIn or other social media channels (Leicester City, Leicestershire, Charnwood etc.) and you can see the amount of pointless jobs they are constantly advertising for. There is wastage all over the shot and the City council I imagine is probably one of the worst for it. Every year it's the same, "Oh we've got to find a way to save millions as we're not being getting the funding we need", then they go and chuck money at projects like redeveloping whole junctions at a cost of millions. Cry poverty one minute and then lo and behold, here's a few million for some new cycle paths.

Funny one just now, I'm playing as Birmingham, currently chasing promotion in my second season and not far off the play-offs so far. The clubs in a pretty poor state financially so I had to agree to sell George Hall to Fulham for £12m which wasn't bad as he was valued at around £8-10m - anyway, long story short, they offered us the chance to loan him back for the season which I agreed to and he's been on fire this season however, all of the news articles, social media posts and press conference questions are all related to how we need to snap him up after his loan finishes and we should be trying to make him a permanent member of the squad etc.

We've got 6/7 home games left so unless you're planning to go to all or most of these I don't think anyone should have to spend £45+ just for the privilege of having a chance to buy tickets for them. Something which they'll also then have to cough up again come the summer for next season.
-
Yes - had to do the same over the weekend. Sounds horrible but half of them sound like pensioners who are leaving positive feedback because they've just been so happy to have had someone to talk to.

Interesting point this and I was of the impression that he was probably averaging a yellow every other game as it does feel like he gets booked a lot. Having looked at his stats the last couple of seasons though; at Watford where it felt like he was booked every game, he got 14 yellows in 36 league games (in 3040 minutes played) averaging a yellow once in just under every 2.5 games - this season he's had 2 in in 24 appearances (820 minutes played) meaning one every 4.5 games on average.

Having nightmares about Summerville and Gnonto... which means it's likely Piroe and/or Bamford will have a stormer.

For that much a month I’d expect zero ads, that’s crazy

I don't think it even went on sale to fans with a purchase history either unless it happened right at the death but I was hoping to go to this one (in hindsight not that gutted I missed it) but no option to anyway. Out of principle now I am not paying for a membership. In the end it's me that loses out but when at a time when everything else in life is costing me more and more I just cannot justify it and will now likely only be going down on the off chance the club is feeling generous to sell to us paupers.

Absolutely heart braking and every parent of young children's absolute worst nightmare, I can't imagine what the parents are going through.
-
Didn't read the post properly sorry.
-
Annoying. If that's the case I have a horrible feeling they will judge general sale on a cup match (which always tend to have lower attendances) and two Tuesday night games, say the demand wasn't there and then not bother again.
-
Do we know if the Boro game will be general sale? 5 days out I was hoping this one would be too as it's been the first general sale one I can go to this season.
-
As much as I wouldn't be overly keen to have any of the 3 manage us I can't agree with this post. McKenna has done a great job for Ipswich in the 2/3 years he's been there. Promotion last season to the great season they're having this year. Granted they've slipped off the pace recently but compare their squads to the other 3 in the top 4 and there's a big gap. Farke may not have cut it in the PL but he's got a great record in this league, he hasn't just fluked 2 promotions with Norwich and he's in the mix again this year. Russell Martin, I don't really know. Southampton have got a good squad so I think the club would expect for him to be there or thereabouts where they are now no matter who was managing.

Best goal you've seen scored against us
lcfc278 replied to foxfanazer's topic in Leicester City Forum
In person, the Camarasa goal for Cardiff or the Cresswell goal for West Ham. -
Well you posted it as evidence for something but if you don't know what it means how are we supposed to?
-
What does the vote % mean?
-
Weird question but it just popped in my mind and thought I'd ask here, when we won the league and Vichai bought all the players a BMW i8, did that have to go through the books of the club as a 'player bonus' or was that just a gift from him to them as individuals, outside of the clubs usual business? How would that work? I think I remember reading at the time they were worth like £100K each so a couple of million.

Let's hope that last bit is true and we don't get any big injuries in the next couple of months. The first point though, I don't think after at least 4 years of poor windows that it is just an 'assumption' anymore.
