We may get away with it, but it looks like a major mistake. Scriven and Trevaskis both 3 overs for 18. Mike 4 overs for 49. -

Kimber can produce amazing hitting, we know this, but he needs to add intelligence to his game, Ben Cox being an excellent role model dare I say -

Into June: P11 W8 D2 L1 pretty confident that’s the best record of all 18 counties. -

I’m not a big rugby fan, so City and County are my great loves. City’s demise really hurts me more than it should. County’s incredible team ethic this season has been joyful to behold, and reminds me sporting success is cyclical for teams like ours. County this season remind me good days will return for City. We’re foxes for life, whether we like it or not. -

The cost of staging 4 day games must be eye watering. So I went to Lords on Friday and Saturday. Beautiful weather on both days. A good competitive game of cricket. There were about 2,000 in the ground on both days. A one off ticket is £20. It's the most famous cricket arena in the world. A population of 20 million is within an hour of the ground, but just 2,000 people attend (most of whom will be members of either MCC or Middlesex). You cannot really blame any Club for wanting to stage fewer of these loss making events. County get about 300 to 500 through the gate for a day of County Cricket. So 10 days of County Cricket, or one evening of Blast cricket, when you might get 3,000 down at Grace Road. -

What a fabulous performance. Wow. -
Sheffield Wednesday? On a Saturday?
-
one block within the away section was totally closed, then plenty empty in the home end. My guess would be around 28k

Likewise. My last game was the horror that was Brentford. I simply want to see Vardy play for us one more time, remembering what he’s achieved rather than what has become of us now. Then, hopefully, a new era dawns next season, with lots of keen young players supported by three or four senior pros. -

Well done Foxes. This must be the best start to a season in years!! -
It's aim was to raise the profile of the concerns many LCFC fans, including myself, have. The fact that the plane and its message have been featured on numerous mainstream media and social channels means it was a resounding success. No one expected Top to see the message, or subsequent coverage, and immediately sell the club and sack Rudkin. But it does highlight the utter mess we've made of the last four seasons (the cracks were well and truly appearing the season before we were relegated). The orchestrator of the protest was anything other than self-centred. He has put time and effort in to raising awareness of the legitimate concerns many of us have. To be honest, if you can look at how we've performed over the last four years and think it's been anything other than a total mess, the word with which you conclude your statement comes to mind.

I haven’t been to the last few games, but I’m thinking I’ll go to the Southampton home game to ‘say goodbye’ and watch him in the flesh one last time, as I think it is now time to say thank you, and farewell, to the greatest player in the history of the club. That goal against Liverpool, for me, was the greatest moment in my 50 years supporting City. Thank you, Jamie

Agreed! It’s super coverage on LancsTV to be fair. Excellent camera work and good commentary. And all for free. -

Made his comeback for the 2s this week. Does seem like some decent young batters making runs in the 2s. I’m just starting to feel we may have a viable future on the field. Not so sure off it. -

I'd say this is one of the most comprehensive wins we've had in some time. Really excellent. Dare we hope for something this summer?? -

Every now and again Jarvis likes to announce something to generate some headlines. Ground redevelopment for example. Gives off slight second hand car salesman vibes. Then again I am Mr Cynical. -
Agreed. The football is going to be miserable. We may as well try and celebrate the Vardy inspired great times. They need to do a proper pre match video sharpish

Premier Ambition isn't attributed to anyone - we, as a club, have that ambition, but amateur decisions are destroying that ambition
-
For me, King Power is simply the sponsor. 'King Power out' type messages don't really help. What needs to be highlighted is the amount of shocking decisions that have been taken by the senior leaders. Of course Top has ultimate responsibility for this. He quite clearly needs to recruit a far superior senior management team. Ideally I would like to see King Power retain its backing, but with significant changes at board level, and a change in attitude leading to them communicating openly and honestly with we, the supporters.

so I've run a few PR companies over the last few decades. I've supported City for 50 years. Doesn't mean I'm expert, but I can offer some thoughts: We need to communicate with outsiders, not ourselves. Keep the slogan very, very generic if you want people to remember it Focusing on individuals make us look a bit tacky The most successful slogans in recent years have been Make America Great Again and Get Brexit Done. I hate the aspirations, but as communications devices they are genius. I'd recommend those thoughts guide the ultimate choice. Well done @ozvaldo. It takes courage to do something like this.

You may be right - who are those five better players on the bench on your opinion?
-
We may not be very good. That’s one thing. But the utter lack of fight is another. We simply don’t look bothered

That new commercial director did a fine job.
