Vlad the Fox

Personally don’t think the refs have been much worse than when in the prem with the exception of the one game when he seemed to miss two blatant penalty decisions, one each so that backs up the evens itself up regiment in one match. On the whole though I can’t think of any glaringly obvious mistakes that would have been changed by var and don’t miss the stoppages we’d have had for numerous goals that would have been checked endlessly for offside and as such killing the game. I remember reading something before var was introduced saying that refs got something like 96% of decisions right, they anticipated var would improve that by 2/3%. Is it really worth all the disruption, cost and killing the very moments of euphoria we all crave for 3%?

The whole point of football is scoring goals, there’s many different ways and styles of getting it there but the one thing we all crave is that hit, high or rush of elation when the ball hits the back of the net. VAR kills that moment of pure unbridled jubilation and as a result part of the game has died, I’d not realised how much it was spoiling my enjoyment of football until this season.

My old dog when I was a kid we’d give a tranquilliser about an hour before things would kick off, she’d go behind the settee and sleep for the night, not sure if this is really the right thing to do now-a-days? If it’s good for the dog. Does anyone else do this now?

Thanks, but nope, he’s that stressed that reassuring him is impossible his ears are pricked up, shaking, barking, don’t think he’ll go out later now either for a pee. I think I’ll let the Mrs get up first in the morning.

I guess he’s that scared that he is just listening for them and is hearing them above the music. It’s horrible to see them so distressed, must be awful for you, especially as you dog is ill as well. I get bonfire night and Diwali and new years but yes the rest pisses me off too.

How are people getting on tonight with their pets and the fireworks? Don’t get me wrong, I’m not against fireworks and don’t want to stop people having their fun but my dog is beside himself. How are you getting your pets through it? My dog (border collie) is barking like mad, peeing all over the house, panting and just won’t settle. Each year he has got worse so this year we’ve got him a calming spray which has helped the last couple of nights but tonight is like Beirut and it’s not working, I’ve got classic fm blasting out yet he still seems to hear them. When I was younger we used to tranquillise my dog (another border collie) and she’d sleep through it, I didn’t want to do it with my current dog but it’s seeming like next year it’s the only choice. How does everyone else help their pets cope?

Hard sell I guess, spiders aren’t as bad as people think and do a lot of good in getting rid of a lot of the bugs and flys we all moan about in the summer, really they are our friends. However if you can’t find a taker don’t let her go free just in case you live near me

Yes, if you go back and listen to his interview when he first signed he explains his reasons for coming to Leicester, what he was looking for when he left spurs. He wanted to earn back respect, make his name at a club, much like Kasper did on his dads advice. He had offers to join premier league teams but obviously liked the look of our project the best, it was a big decision for him to drop a league but one he was prepared to make which shows a certain character of the man. I’m glad it’s working out for him.

Milan Mandaric’s ceo, it was Hoos responsible for bringing Pearson to City first time round having worked with him at southampton.

Oh come on, what was the original terrible title?

Did I read a while back that newcastle were attempting to be sponsored by an airline that didn’t own any planes?

To be fair I didn’t want to be hanging around after the match on Tuesday so parked closer to town centre about 15/20 minute walk and apart from a bit of tooting in the underpass I was back home in 25 minutes. If I’d have parked at freeman’s common I’d have still been in the car park. And I stayed to clap the players off.

If I remember correctly it was suggested that we were playing for positions, if we lost it gave us a better draw in the play offs, Little told the players to take their ease off the gas but didn’t mean quite as much as they did.

I once saw a lad about to propose in an airport, was walking past where I was sat as he scuttled in front of her and started to go down on one knee, she sternly told him to “get up” before he’d got his knee down.

Yes, and we couldn’t handle the pressure, I think Albrighton said something along the lines of this isn’t pressure, fighting relegation the previous season was pressure.
