  1. True but his poor management of the club is likely to led to redundancies this summer and a knock on to the city’s economy. I’m sure that image of him laughing will stick in the head of those unfortunate to suffer
  2. Hellberg was excellent at Varnamo which nearly got him the Sunderland job. At Hammarby they lose a player or two a season whereas Malmo have the handy CL funds
  3. Kim Hellberg at Hammarby is better. Rydstrom is from the Maresca stubborn school
  4. Well they haven’t built the ticketing system online because you have to ring, visit or email to move. So that’s a pain in the arse tomorrow on the phone
  5. He’s not happy at QPR that’s for certain. He’s been steady there without being superb
  6. 3 play-off semis across the county on Saturday Aylestone Park v Eynesbury Rovers Heather St Johns v Coton Green Leicester St Andrews v Bradley Town
  7. All dependent on the Southern Premier South playoffs - some rumblings that Merthyr might be the unlucky ones but if Gloucester win the playoffs, the league has an easy answer. Generally speaking the travelling is about the same due to Torquay, Truro, Weymouth.
  8. Both the Wolves and Bournemouth fan who I work with say stay clear
  9. Which makes sense on paper (and I'm sure you agree with this) but it requires a DoF with a proper vision for what they want the club to look like and the wider strategy. So when manager decides he wants to pick one of his favourites or an agents suggestion, someone says 'not good for LCFC'
  10. There's a gap between your thinking and my thinking - my argument isn't anything to do with the chasing of success etc. My PoV isn't on the basis of the have or have nots or wanting a perfect owner from the city - I am not naive, its on the view of the erosion of the clubs heritage, history and links to the community over promoting Thailand (which occurred on Sunday). As that erosion continues, it's no longer my club I fell in love with and it's a club with a decreasing attachment to Leicester as a city - rather the city plays host to a football team every two weeks between August and May. The passing on from a Thai millionaire to another suggests the priority is keeping Thailand at the top table rather than Leicester at the top table. Hence forms the gap for a fan-led club which is a celebration of city and community. You can respectfully be a multi-millionaire but aware of a clubs importance a link to the city and its community. Someone like Bill Foley has fostered that at three sporting clubs he's invested in (Vegas, Bournemouth & Auckland). Or the guys at Wrexham for example.
  11. Employers would crap themselves at another bank holiday over this period.
  12. Cynically did no-one sign up for Reid & Ayew and now they've picked two players who have a bit more popularity (by all accounts McAteer is apparently a very good egg off the pitch).
  13. We will see. But if this club is effectively going to be used as a sport washing arm of Thailand, then I'll be off. The names speculated are bigger money but again their fortune is from beneficial agreements with the Thai government. Given the stadium has been on more than one occasions used as a place of political meetings, I can see some truth in it.
  14. Be an interesting summer for FFP - potentially the next Leicester if they can't shift anyone. It's where the Asensio and Rashford signings were a risk but at least calculated, by being loans.
  15. PSR isn't the problem on the gap. All three promoted clubs spent serious money in the summer including ourselves with our PSR concerns. Ipswich dropped £120m. It's for me clubs spend the money so scattergun and terribly that their squads are polluted with poor players. The key to PL survival is getting your keeper and centre back pairing right. Look at us in 2015 or Wolves this season, both in January.
  16. Would love to see our fanbase in Kappa and Macron's sizing
  17. See King Power out thread
  18. If these rumours about a new Thai ownership come to fruition, I think we might see an argument for a fans club appear in the pyramid.
  19. I watched the Commitments on Saturday - its firmly there as one of those films which really shouldnt' have won as many awards as it did but its still a very enjoyable, joyous watch.
  20. Yep six. Better than any other winger this season for Leicester
  21. Better than expected. Mind is blown that Keane went for so much. Some equally though aren't that impressive profits - Gray, Cornet and Collins for example.
  22. In the 20/21 and 21/22 seasons, we had our second and third highest revenues in the clubs history.
  23. He isn’t exactly what the club need because his squad building means he doesn’t have the ability to improve a player to the point they make a substantial profit. He has a poor track record of developing youngsters
  24. Which is more of an us issue. I read we are the only club to ever spent more on wages collectively in the Premier League than our revenues. That’s including a whopping revenue increased due to good performance
  25. He’s our best player post 2016
