He has some competition. Soumare. Okoli. Musa. Slimani. Faes. Skipp.

I think this is where I'm at. If it means the likes of Braybrooke, Alves, Evans, Cartwright, Aluko, Gray etc become part of a new exciting team, so be it. These last two seasons have been utterly dismal, and there is simply no joy supporting Leicester City at the moment

To inject some much needed competitive edge into this thread, in which minute do we concede first? I’m tempted to say 3, but will try and be positive and go for 63

Let’s be honest, this has been a dreadful winter for the men’s team, and the women’s team were poor in the autumn too. Women’s T20 World Cup in England this summer. Big opportunity for the game if we compete well. If.

Apparently very few people can

Arsenal fans have booed their team at times this season. You're right. Collectively, crowds seem quicker to voice their dissatisfaction.

There’s always the mistake.

This is a pathetic take. Crowd responded to a better second half performance. Plenty of Rudkin out noise too. As feeble as we are, we have to encourage the team if we’re to have a chance of survival.

Around the same we spent on Okoli.

I thought the transfer window was closed now mate

Well, league one and out of the FA Cup in November, sadly

That’s a great piece of writing @tickler28. I know it’s only a game, but City are part of my identity, and have been for over 50 years. And right now, I’m hurting

Good call this. Obviously want us to win, but if not us, let it not be India or Australia.

that's not really the point. It's so generate continued media exposure. No one, not even if they pretend otherwise, likes adverse media coverage. No single act will bring about regime change. A collection of actions might just do so. The alternative is to do nothing. And that's not really an alternative, is it?

I absolutely thought about that Wolves game at half time. At 3-1, felt it might well end up all square. At 3-2 hoped we might cling on for a point. We've been spineless for the best part of 4 seasons if we're honest.

It feels like an absolute certainty at the moment

Do you think the Director of Football might do the decent thing and provide an update tomorrow? Thank Kingy for stepping into the breach? Of course he won't. Rudkin has absolutely no class whatsoever

First time there has been such a turnaround in the Championship in 16 years. That’s how bad this is.

That starting line up cost around £105 million

I think many, myself included, have not wanted to acknowledge the decline of Ricky because he is now our one remaining link to the good times. I remember travelling to Brighton in 2019. We won 2-0, and for the first 20 minutes we destroyed them, with Ricky cruising up and down the flank. Travelling back on the train a Brighton fan simply smiled at us and said "you were just a bit too good for us." They were mid table. Happy days. We were second. Kasper didn't have a shot to save. Fifth win in a row. We'd won those five by an aggregate of 17-1.

We’re going to become a case study at business schools: the rise and fall of Leicester City - lessons in leadership

Totally idiotic by Okoli. Obvious red

the BBC is an organisation. It can't lie, or speak the truth. It's journalists try their best to find the truth, but the truth is often hard or impossible to find. Do people working for the BBC make editorial mistakes? Of course they do. Often all of us are guilty of saying 'that's a great article/story' when it reinforces our worldview. We it doesn't, it's all to easy to accuse it of bias.

Two people I've met down here over the last couple of years knew him from his Hemel days and said he's a really lovely bloke. If a new manager can get him committed to the cause for the next three months it has to be good for us

I get that a change of manager is simply not going to make things better. But perhaps a new regime will get rid of the playing out from the back nonsense that clearly invites pressure and mistakes, and make us better organised defensively. Abandon the inverted full back tactic, as that exposes us when we lose the ball too. We have the ability to score goals. What we desperately need in the next three months is the ability to grind out 4 or 5 dull 1-0 wins. We also need to resolve the Winks situation. Grown ups need to take charge. No one is going to buy him in the next week. We cannot afford to have a potentially helpful asset twiddling his thumbs when we are already desperately short of capable personnel
