Most people in the poll thread sticking with the card then, good to see.

Potter or the WBA manager the favourite 2 IMO. Although Potter and the England job is a shout.

Premier League 24/25 Pre-season guff (misc talking points)
Leicester_Loyal replied to davieG's topic in Leicester City Forum
'On the Wolves website,, external owner Jeff Shi stressed commercial growth is "vital" for the club' These owners always say the same, yet the additional revenue from increasing ST prices is probably 3/4 million. -
What are you on about epic fail I'll repeat myself, anytime we've sold a player to Chelsea we've gotten fantastic money, they've got the odd bargain, which is when we've had a release clause in the contract (Kante), which LCFC themselves choose to put in there (regardless of whether Kante insisted on it). Where is the epic fail or backtracking here?
-
Well exactly, I'm not saying the club are wrong for doing so, I'm saying if we want the player that badly we agree to it, we can't then moan when Chelsea come along and 'asset strip' us, getting the player/manager for a cut down fee. You either have the player and the clauses, or you don't. Anytime we've sold a player to Chelsea, who didn't have a release clause, we've gotten fantastic money.

Mckenna is definitely going, one of those 3 clubs will want him and he'll go.
-
Going for these managers is wild, Mckenna ffs, even Nigel Adkins got back to back promotions with Saints. Both of them need another couple of seasons IMO.

For a club like us, being asset stripped by someone like Chelsea is like winning the lottery, they overpay for pretty average players. They get the odd bargain, but that's because we have release clauses in our contracts, that's our own fault. It's down to us as a club to always have the next Kante, Drinkwater, Chillwell, Fofana or Enzo ready and waiting to sign. We should already be looking at replacements for players like KDH, Mads and Fatawu, all of these could be off within the next 12/24 months, hopefully for big money.

Oh my good God it's gonna be a new 5 year contract on silly money again isn't it?
-
Please don't offer him a new contract on silly money for 5 years.

Only a couple of hundred get picked. This was how it was last season anyway.
-
Ticket ID checks again next season will hinder that.

Foden needs to be played this summer, outrage if he doesn't. -
Dear God no, been crap almost every time I've watched him. Hope Saints come up now.

Sammie Szmodics - signed for Ipswich

Surely the package for someone Ross Barkley would be less than this lad? I know who I'd rather have for a season in the EPL. -

HE WAS 25! SS is 29 in September, 15m + would be insane business. -
The "do they mean us?" thread pt 4
Leicester_Loyal replied to davieG's topic in Leicester City Forum
They had to beat Man City and win their final game, and hope that Villa lose their final game. They'd probably end up with a draw from Man City, win their final game, and Villa lose to Palace, but that would have given Arsenal the title. I understand mathematically they were in with a chance of CL, but the percentages must have been very slim. Obviously I now believe Palace will beat Villa so everyone will go 'SEE!!', but that's only because Villa will now be on the beach as they've got the job done. I totally understand why so many of them are happy to have lost that game. -

A top class elite manager would be getting gigs much higher than LCFC and Celtic. -

What are your expectations for next season?
Leicester_Loyal replied to Sly's topic in Leicester City Forum
No doubt I'll be moaning at most points next season but regardless of how we manage it, just finishing 17th has to be the aim, get the finances under control and improve the team slightly. -

Vardy was 25 when he signed for us, he was 1m and he's a once in a decade player. It's very rare for players to develop as late as him and still be playing at 37/38.
