  1. I’d rather CL or EL than the conference. They’ll win that and put another star above the shrub.

    No, it made a loud and unexpected alarm sound on our mobiles. I guess they overcompensate with the area but we’re the Rothley side of Mountsorrel so not particularly close.

    The mobile alert for the Barrow flooding was awful.
  4. Went into the Craven arms after a serious detour to The Copper Fox post match on Saturday. Excellent exterior but Black Country Ales are homogenising the decor of their stock by the looks of it, could have been the Salmon. BFG was well kept but a mate drank half a pint vinegar flavoured Star (idiot should have sent it back.

  6. I had the same thought . Looking at LinkedIn we'll just promote somebody that's been at the club a long time already. The current financial director has already been at the club for close to 14 years - given we snuck through FFP regs on a loophole that's a position that should be filled by fresh eyes. Not just a incumbent employee . Chief Executive - 14 years Director of football - 22 years Academy director - 22 years (same person, oops) Head of partnerships - 20 years Head of marketing - 19 years Head of content - 15 years Head of media relations - 12 yeats Head of IT - 21 years Ticketing Manager - 20 years No wonder it's stale at the club, our non-footballing recruitment is just as lazy the footballing side.
  7. I’d not even thought about Whelan coming up to retirement until @Tommy G’s post. Top will have absolutely no idea what to do
  8. Is the CEO just coasting along, not upsetting the applecart good for the club? This is where Top’s disinterest stunts any change happening
  9. The personal loyalty to the Svriwaddywaddys is an issue for the football club and its fans. Unlike lots of industries the CEO is completely beholden to a function outside of their remit. The footballing function is disastrous and completely undermines every non-footballing dept, e.g - you can't run the commercial dept well if we're getting points deductions. Whelan is completely shafted but does nothing because she's a King Power loyalist and why cause an issue if you're well paid on the gravy train? The same thing applies to Rudkin. If people think Top isn't the issue and we'd magically be ok with different directors you're absolutely cuckoo. There are ZERO standards at the club, the directors don't enforce them either they're not accountable either because the owner doesn’t crack the whip. Top doesn't care, simple as that or he's more stupid or cowardly than we realise. The only significant change we've had a board level is literally because somebody died, that's what it takes. LCFC are a sclerotic organisation and their mismanagement will lead us into being the next Sheffield Wednesday.

    Drove to work which was fine via the A46 but had to park nearby and get picked up to actually make it in. Our office is by Rothley brook and that has completely flooded, it's scarcely been the same as it was for a couple of years.
  11. He’s running Ward close for 22/23 at this rate. Absolutely wank and there’s no way Wormleighton, Hamza or Faes could be worse.
  12. Has he ever stopped a cross? His lack of physicality just stops him from competing. Buonanotte or BEK are hardly athletic behemoths but they have the threshold ability to move. Still not the worst fullback today however.
  13. Better chance of picking up a result than normal, plus they've had extra CL games - want to see us actually threaten and score rather than just keep it tight and a spirited 1-0 loss or something.
  14. Probably not both games but we're capable of winning one. Vardy, Buonanotte, BEK etc are capable of scoring and creating against mid table teams, we're not going to lose every remaining game
  15. I don't trust Capology's number at all. Especially as lots of players have signed multiple new deals and will have had a wage increase on joining us. Golding likely will have been on more than 8k pw at Chelsea, he would have joined on a higher wage especially considering it was a multimillion pound fee. At a minimum I'd expect he'd be on 10 or 12k. Kristiansen and Hermansen will be on more than that, both Danish internationals playing for clubs perennially in Euro completion before joining us. Lots of players will have had a wage increase on promotion too. I think a few of those figures are probably are overbaked like Vardy's at this stage and probably Vestergaard's too but most are undercooked. Mavididi and Fatawu just aren't on 10k pw. Our average wage was like 83k per week or something when we went down, we're not shrewd negotiators all of a sudden.
  16. Sounds like it could be us except the 40 players bit
  17. Oh great we're beholden to a moron forever.
  18. Yeah, we have 57 points to play for and we're 2 behind Wolves. Some on here have completely capitulated, the players haven't.
  19. Beer is better (the cask, lager the same) than the Royal Oak and the decor is far better. I was really disappointed by Quorn's pubs. Very Deano crowd

    3 You and pSinatra were both much closer than I was so just wondered if it was notable. I didn't look that hard but just thought Islamic, lime washed buildings, mountainous so thought it was somewhere near the Atlas mountains.

  22. Please god no
  23. 0.36 non penalty xG per 90 isn't enough in the MLS for a striker commanding that sort of fee, never mind in the best league in the world.
  24. Players get banned longer for tweets ffs
