You'd be calling for him to be sacked if it wasn't all so farcical, wouldn't you? The writing was on the wall from very first game at Stoke, really, which was basically more of the same. Clearly had little to no impact on the team.

Hopefully that new profile of fan they were after fancy a bit of League One action.

Only reason I turned up today.

Like the slow that slowly boils - the current administration have stripped away all the admirable and likable elements of Leicester City. The matchday staff treat the punters with visible contempt. The punters seem to accept this and want to genuflect to an ownership that treat them AND match-day staff with contempt. This ownership has wasted money overindulging players not good enough. The players think that they're better than they are and they definitely think they're better than us.# I'm not sure how much 'love' I have for the club anymore. I don't know how to articulate why I still go and take an interest.

Lot of players come out of London and act like that, it seems.

It's no wonder he's always smiling. Can't believe his luck can he.

On the subject of swearing at the football. Don't bring your children in that case. Football is an environment where swearing happens and it shouldn't have to totally change itself to accommodate the tastes of children. It's entirely your issue if you're taking your children to a place you don't think is appropriate for them.

Words / Phrases you don't hear anymore - or do you?

'It's black over Bill's mother's' meaning dark clouds/stormy weather is on the horizon. Such is the hyper-sensitive nature of the world that when I last used this there was a gasp and a puzzled reasoning about it being racist. -
There was so much weirdness from the fans surrounding Kramaric. He was a proper FM /hipster signing - name that has an accent, 9million pounds, from Hoffenheim, needed a work permit. It ticked all the boxes for the fancy dan signing and for so long people were desperate for him to play over Vardy. The revisionism was massive, too, he was cast as 'the one that got away' with people seemingly ignoring we had one of the best strikers on the planet playing for us over him and during the period after he had left. He was good but Vardy was better.

It'll still sell tickets. There will be people desperate to take their kids or go and support the team that have been sidelined by the club as collateral damage. I can't blame them people. I'm a STH and get it. They'll want to go. The club just don't deserve them fans ti buy tickets, mind. But I think it will still sell them.
-
That's disgraceful. He ought to be ashamed of his involvement in all this. He has no right to lecture fans on anything; zero authority. It really is a root and branch clear out. In the event the club survives he needs to go too.
-
He oversees fans relationships and has been complicit in treating us like we're pieces of shit. He's done his as a 'fan'. I would've quit long ago and would feel ashamed at all of this. There are other ways to earn money.
-
I'm going to write to Jim, that suppoter liaison fella. I know a lot on here think he's a great bloke because he's been half competent but he's presided over the worst relationship between club and supporters in our history. He's the bloke who has signed off on us treating fans like criminals. I'm going to point out how far this club has fallen and how complicit he's been in all of this. Begging the very fans he's oversaw the isolation of. He ought to know how badly he's oversaw the treatment of us. Probably the worst of the lot because of his supposed status as a 'fan'. They're all so dreadful.

That’s something Akinbiyi used to do towards the end. When they were in possession he’d run around like his life depended on it; he wanted to show the fans that he was up for it. But when we had the ball he hid behind or next to a defender because he was actually terrified that he would find himself in space and running towards goal. He was terrified of missing so he hid in plain sight. That’s what is going on here.
-
I wonder if they’ve emailed the new profile of fans they wanted to attract a year or two back? I wonder how many of our international fans are going to snap up this tasty little offer; the fella that was from Singapore that used to get the spare ticket next to me in order to photograph the oppositions players hasn’t been for a while. I wonder if they’ve emailed him. They couldn’t help him jump the priority queue quick enough with their international members bollocks. This is the club getting its comeuppance. I’ve no doubt there will be a sidelined group of fans who will jump at the chance to get their sons/daughters down for the first time in years and years and I can’t blame them. The club does not deserve that, however.
-
He's 'wasted' a big part of his career. I put wasted in quotation marks as he's ovbiously won the lot and left no stone unturned but I can't think of a better way to put it. He could have been playing at a much, much higher level over the last few years. Good luck to him with his wife.

Finding herself in Europe by banging the mediterranian types?

I sit down from SK1. You need to up the noise then as I've never heard a peep of it. Good to know, though.
-
1 - yes. Of course. However, this lot have done it whilst maintaining a veneer of looking like they're running it competently, which takes real skill. 2 - Mental strength every day of the week. As soon as that ball bounced we had lost in the minds of the players. 3 - Theirs but not by much. 4 - countless. My old man said 'we've not hit the bottom yet, either' yesterday and he was horribly correct.
-
To add to that - the 'I thought about changing it at half time but gave the lads a chance' line is real revisionism. Take control of this situation, Gary. If they're shit, hook them. Naval gazing is sending us down.

I'm sure it's not an easy job but he is making it much harder than it needs to be. For the sake of the fans, the club, and Ayew himself he shouldn't be starting. It is extremely frustrating that Rowett doesn't seem to have done any homework in that regard. He's claimed that he would love to start Lascelles but can't drop Okoli and Nelson. Just rubbish, that. He is a) the manager and in charge and b) in an emergency situation where total pragmatism is the only option. If he's going to gain us the points then **** feelings and vibes. I can't outright prove it but I think I'm right. I think he's doing the Rodgers style 'I do my substitutions on sixty minutes because that's when I do my pre planned substitutions and I don't deviate style'. And they're always a like for like. That second and third goal were coming and we need things shuffling up badly. Instead, we wait until sixty minutes because that's the time we have to make changes. I want him to succeed but he's making the job seem harder than it needs to be.
-
Some top-tier bullshit from Rowett over the last week. Claims he 'desperately' wants to start Lascelles but can't drop Nelson or Okoli. But will drop Daka for Ayew. Puuurreee bullshit. We have 8 games left. Play the players best equipped to keep us up. You're not massaging a squad over a season - this is an emergency situation and if you want to start Lascelles that's it. And after today's game he's giving out about how he COULD have changed things at half time but didn't. Bull****ingshit. Total revisionism. He made his substitutions on 60 minutes because that's when he does his substitutions despite it being ****ing clear to everyone in the stadium that changes were needed by 45 minutes. Utter bullshit and taking the fans for twats. I'm behind him but he's spouting shite.

They're complicit. Anyone working for them is complicit. Everyone working at the club should be replaced the moment KP are gone. That Jim included. They have all contributed to the death by a thousand cuts.
-
Molly Malone is another. That was great and a real favourite. I'm unsure if anyone at the KP has ever sung it. The same as the blues. That's dead now.
