Yes, obviously we should want promotion. An optimistic football fan looks at promotion as giving your club the chance to mix it with the best and maybe pull off a shock or two. Promotion and survival sets a well run club up for 10 years. The problem is that promotion won't bring about change. It won't bring about a squad refresh. It won't bring about a reform of the way the club runs. It'll just lead to contract extensions and signings of has-been footballers. We do need to go up and we should aim for it. But a total refresh is needed drastically and I don't think that will happen if we go up. We need a Nigel Pearson in League 1 season before we can begin to look up IMO.

Yep. They'd also send an email asking why you weren't at the game.

Patson got a last minute equaliser for Zambia today. Looking forward to him having the tournament of his life as he drags Zambia to the AFCON title before remembering he can't kick a ball properly when he returns here.

Yeah as I said it's not something only Leicester do.

I'm generally pressed for time on a night game and sometimes have to get a sausage roll or something to tie me over but since they've scrapped those Piglets Pantry ones that were genuinely tasty and filling for Pukka Pie tat I've sacked that off and will buy myself a sandwich at lunch and leave it in the car.

You can buy that pair of slippers from Primark for £1.50 and it doesn't come with the thoroughly embarrassing badge on it that says "I spent £20 for these".

They're not supporters, they're happy clappers. Supporters care about the welfare of the club. This lot care about the welfare of overpaid footballers who couldn't give a ****. Supporters applaud the players when it's clear they've put in maximum effort and commitment. This lot applaud the players because they think it makes them better fans. Supporters boo and whistle players that are taking the club for a ride. This lot are too frightened of losing their spot on Coach 1. A supporter's weekend is ruined by a bad result. This lot think it's their duty to go and clap the people who have forgotten what the score was by the time they're back in the dressing room.

Special category of div to be one of those clapping the players. Week before xmas, packed away end, £40 a ticket and these jokers still think they owe the players. No wonder Aiyawatt takes them to the cleaners.

Just had a read through the last few pages of this thread. Can't believe "LIV" golf is roman numerals for 54. Had absolutely no idea.

Every club is as bad as the last for this btw. Yes we sell some absolute tat but it'll take 5 seconds of looking through any other club's site for something equally as bad. Here's the biggest club in the country charging £20 for a bit of red cloth and £12 for a piece of paper. https://store.manutd.com/en-gb/p/manchester-united-knitted-dog-jumper-red-2453 https://store.manutd.com/en-gb/p/manchester-united-fred-the-red-old-trafford-colouring-poster-white-3292

I’m looking forward to it all being Ben Nelson’s fault.

Yeah it needs to be a score that makes neutrals go "bloody hell".

Never even bothered turning it on. This squad always crumbles against a side with something to prove. They simply don't have the minerals.

I think a player like him could generate something in the range of £20m. I think the club would be tested by a bid in the £10m-£12m range. I think he's a rung below Jude Bellingham who went for roughly £30m who I think was much more assured. Monga has all the ability but does he have the temperament and attitude? We'll see. I think he'll stay here for now though.

Sorry, I wasn't thinking that that to cover for wages. I assumed it was a case of a certain amount per day. I just thought that it seemed like a lot of money for LCFC women based on what I assume are relatively low running costs. I would have thought that £115k goes quite far for us.

Seems a heck of a lot. What sort of wages do the players get here?

Disagree with you there. I think most clubs would bite your hand off for a 16 year old with that much talent and first team experience.

I don't think Jake Paul is in this to buy wins. I think he's pretty serious about wanting to be a respected boxer. His money has bought him the opportunity. Unfortunately for him AJ will (should) take his head off. The only way AJ's reputation survives tonight is with a very serious knockout. The Paul brothers are massive in America so a lot of people will be watching and expecting AJ to win fast, comfortably and aggressively.

hahaha just been having a look through the shop's website. https://shop.lcfc.com/en/leicester-city-pint-glass £15 quid for something that'll last for precisely one dishwasher cycle Insane price.

Yep and I'm sure 99% of clubs would provide a statement to reassure fans. Can't see KPFC doing that.

I would be flabbergasted if the club thought this is statement worthy. Their attitude when it comes to informing supporters is appalling. A month ago Aiyawatt sat in a plush skyscraper in Bangkok and said 'now is the time for communication' yet he's not said anything since.

Yeah this whole thing absolutely stinks and is symptomatic of the owner not giving a flying ****.

Completely predictable.

I don't think anyone would argue against Skipp being a top 5 worst signing if you asked a month ago. Does that all change from a months worth of football? For me, no chance. He needs to prove himself.

I don't think so, no. I think you can see from a lot of players England has that they're either not being picked because they don't have a particular style of play or character or they've clearly got talent but it's being pulled away from them because playing daft cricket is drilled into them. Our best bowler and wicketkeeper are sat at home because they've been forced out and we've got two opening batsmen who have averaged 60+ this summer sat at home while they have to watch Zack Crawley throw his hands at everything.
