I was with someone the other day, who holds a Director position in R&D. We were discussing climate change and the impact it is having on the world. He put a different , though provoking gap in on it for me. He said, look at all the graphs and they start around 1700 - 1800. Apparently the average temperature was higher in the 1600s. He said what we are actually trying to deal with, is the impact of the rising temperatures on todays society.

It’s going around again. No one under 18 remembers its. We’ll have X Factor and Blockbuster back next year.

In fairness to him, he did a half decent job at Derby, given the mess they were in. I can’t comment on DC United. For all I know, Freddy Adu could still be playing for them.

Let’s be honest though. How can anyone have sympathy for a group of people that have attacked a music festival? They have killed in excess of 200 people in attendance, then paraded the bodies around in the streets. I’m no expert on the Middle East in the slightest, however that is just brutality that won’t go unpunished.

Yep …. Kicked off last night for the first time in years. Terrible hosts, Rushed through it quicker than I go through a packet of chocolate hobnobs They ticked every diversity box going with the entrants. I only like about 3 of them!

They are certainly diverse.

They’ve got at each other for 75+ years. Until one wipes out the other, the brutal reality is, that this could continue for another 75 years.

Big Brother….

Daka is going to be a major loss

It’s all looks, genuinely horrendous to be honest. KDH is dressed like my grandad, when he went fishing back in the 90s.

How are we getting on, compared to previous Championship winners.

2-0! Vardy and Ndidiniho combining?
-
They’re a good team. It’ll be an interesting game on Boxing Day down in Suffolk. I think they’re back to us mid January as well.
-
I think he’d want the pre season rather than be thrown in as well.
-
Some of us knew it as we’ve had glimpses. Again, Brendan screw up.
-
It concerns me they come for Maresca
-
Ditto!
-
Here we go ….. first one in

How exciting is this season? Last season was a painful, dour experience and pre World Cup was a total disaster and a sign of things to come. As a fan base, we feel so much more engaged. It’s a breath of fresh air and with how things are going, we totally have the opportunity to do something that is history defining. I’m still of the opinion that this is the best squad of players to have ever played in this league. Now let’s kick on and build the bloody stadium extension.
-
I think this team stays up last season. Also, another question to ponder. Once the January transfer window is upon us. If you’re a player looking at options for a move. Do you join a Luton, Burnley, Sheffield United, Everton etc, or would you rather opt for a Leicester?
-
Bardon has a patch of land, just off the Birch Tree roundabout, that would be perfect for a railway station and is screaming out for someone to drop some sort of McDonalds, Starbucks etc on it, with the amount of traffic the sight would get, if this gets approved.
-
I thought it was terrible. Really boring.

10 League Games in - How Would you Rate the Season?

9/10 Attention to detail on small things I really want us to continue like this and see what Enzo can build here. We need to address the slow starts and maybe improve in game management from the players side. It’s the crazy things like addressing the GK situation, getting a bloody good tune out of Vesty, promoting Kasey and Marcel. We still have work to do and I’m sure as this begins to mature, it will only get better. At the moment, we look like a better team in a league below. -
