Cooper needs a win, just get that negativity from fans away from him. Though I'd say having two points on the board after four games ain't a bad start considering what was being suggested from some. Win against Everton we will be five points from bottom.

Win this I really think our season can take off, Everton a mess at the moment perfect to take three points and get a bit of a distance from the bottom three.

League Cup 2024/2025 Thread

Seeing Tottenham losing is comedy gold -
Been their New College, nice setup from what I remember. They will be good following from Nuneaton for sure maybe 250-300. Away followings still been good, in fact our away support over the years always been better than our home support. Bridgnorth week after next, club have already sold out on the coach travel and already started to fill the second coach. A lot of clubs are certainly benefiting from the Boro being this level. Very similar to when Hereford were in the league above their way taking some good followings away. I think a lot of fans of Boro are enjoying the new away days, pretty much like 18 teams in this league Boro have never faced before. Attendance last night was 288... a bit low bit again midweek I think this will be theme this season, likely average 400 on a saturday then drop to 250ish on a Tuesday night. I think if Boro can keep this winning run going, I do think crowds will lift up to 600 on a regular basis.

Boro whack seven against Allexton & New Park tonight, before kick off I noticed Allexton have taken a few hammerings this season and can see why. Defensively there are shocking. Interesting note Callum Carsley son of Lee Carsley made his Boro debut tonight and the England gaffer was actually present this evening, stayed the first half but choose to leave at half time after being pestered for selfies I believe.

England Squad - ROI/Finland Friendlies
Leicesterpool replied to StanSP's topic in General Football and Sport
This Lee Carsley not signing anthem is so over the top. Carsley is not disrespecting anyway, theres nothing in job description about you must sing "god save the king" At the end of day not everyone is a royalist and should forced to be. Im proud English and would happily sing the real English anthems if either jurasulem or land of hope and glory with pride. But even myself i pass on god save the king. -
£23 Kings Lynn, cant say their a club pushing to get efl. In fact now national league north.

I remember that train service, used to go through Leicester and Birmingham. I remember early 00's there used to be a service that ran from Coventry through Leicester all way to Skeggy. Good old central trains... apparently it was scrapped in 2004 due to Nottingham folk moaning they couldn't get seat by the time services reaches there... tough luck for living in Nottingham

Whats the dearest anyone paid at a non league ground. I recall notts county charging £18 for the conference back in 2022 I dont recall paying higher than £18 at non league.

Went to dreaded Coventry, too see Boro at Coventry Copeswood... accidentally ended up at the old Coventry city training ground as the postcode took me their... luckily the ground was only mile down the road. Got their basically like a club house and field. Turnstiles... well didnt have one. Paid but honestly so many ways into the ground you could enter for free. I was just spotted walking by the club house and paid the fiver.. which didnt bother me. Clubs at this level need every penny, plus its cheap. Everyone seemed friendly considering they were cov lot. Football wise entertaining game but Boro were poor first half despite leading 1-0. Copeswood should have been leading but whats when you dont take your chances. Second half they ran out of steam and it was a one way show. Everytime we attacked we scored 5-0 away win. Thanks very much. Attendance was said to be 350 but i think there was more than that, alot there i dont think had paid, not maybe on purpose like one bloke walked in and seen no one around to pay, so just headed in. Id say at least 450, a few local cov city fans attended not having a game today.

A lot of things maybe about Jack Grealish and Declan Rice choosing to swap allegiances... but lets look at facts... Jack Grealish was born in Solihull aka England... Declan Rice... was born in London aka England....! Now lets look at ROI Kasey McAteer... was born in Northampton... choose to play for ROI Max O'Leary... was born in Bath... choose to play for ROI Callum O'Dowda... was born in London... choose to play for ROI Will Smallbone.. was born in Basingstoke... choose to play for ROI Callum Robinson.. was born in Northampton... choose to for ROI Sammie Szmodics... was born in Colchester... choose to for ROI Do England fans call them players traitors? no... ROI just need to accept these players choose the country of their birth... rather than going mardy cause they wouldn't agree to drink Guinness before a game. -
Do Man City charge the same amount, I know in the past some group games they struggle to sell out.
-
I'm sure Leicester only charged something like £110 for all three group games.
-
£94 I read! don't recall us charging half of that. I'd like to know the reasoning by those prices. Problem is talk of boycotts etc... but people are still stupid to pay those prices. I recall when Leeds were ripping away fans off in the championship by charging fans £45 in the championship! I refused to go to Elland Road, whilst they were charging that. Grateful for the price cap in the premier league.

League One & Two - 2024/25 season
Leicesterpool replied to moore_94's topic in General Football and Sport
£15million in league one, is stupid amount to pay. Fulham must be laughing their heads off. Is this the record price done by any league one club? The max you should be for a player at this level is £4million for a player and that is even too much. In 2008 a lot of Nigel's signing for us, were experienced free signings or the loan window so we didn't spend much. I remember in the Sunderland till I die documentary, they signed Will Grigg from Wigan for like £5million even the manager told them not to, stating he wasn't worth the price... and he was right 47 games, just 5 goals! -
Nice guy who looked like he really enjoyed playing for the foxes. RIP

Went to watch boro at Smethwick Rangers... actually Boldmere St Michaels. Nice setup there good little ground. Finished 1-1, but entertainment wise wow not good. Boro scored first against 10 men. Then last kick of the game Smethwick equalised through goalie error.. this league is certainly no walk in park. For me Boros probably no pace in the team. Attendance: 191 with 140 from nuneaton.
