Harborough is actually one of the most Leicester strong places I’ve been to, pretty much everyone I have known from there has been Leicester, moreso than actual Leicester
-
Im hoping the new role for him will essentially be a between point for the commercial and footballing side, judging by the comments of a disconnect there previously, maybe it will just be trying to marry up what Davies says with what McCarron wants I.e communicating budgets and realistic wage points for new signings. Sure it’s been said before, we will know by mid-June

If they actually give it a go and aren’t entirely crap the majority will get on board, always get a few who just go down to have a whinge at everyone except the board. Honestly the ‘world class’ midfield we had included two players who couldn’t have given a shit less and one who aged out of top flight footy at 25, they aren’t the ones I miss from that side -
Tbf from what I have seen McAteer seems to have had a good second half of the season and seems fairly well liked. They’ll be after a CM for a reasonable price, maybe they’ll take Winks
-
Should be sniffing around Donley(Oxford haven’t taken the buy clause) and Lankshear from spurs (I know, PTSD). Both have EFL track records and would come in and perform immediately
-
Don’t think it’s that crazy, think pessimism has driven some of our lot a bit over the edge, as shit as it is majority of them will be able to find teams who will take a low cost risk on guys who have previously performed, Luton got a fair few million on a 30 year old Carlton Morris. I would only really swap Joseph and one of the new defenders as he is a RB, and have two new AM’s instead. Think if by some miracle get Tolaj, Collins and a new manager in place soon we will be in a good place to be a bit more reactive to our sales after that
-
Probably been said but if Rangers sack him we should be all over Rohl again
-
He’d do well at Derby where he could be an additional piece rather than one of the main guys, really hope this one is true, his time has run its course here
-
He does, but he wouldn’t if he could actually see beyond his nose and change the infrastructure to limit his own involvement. Can’t remember who but someone said being a chairman is ‘the most expensive season ticket in the world’ and if Top ever learnt from that in 5 years it could all be a bad memory, but he won’t and it won’t be so by the by. Rudkin either has to go or be moved into a position with absolutely no responsibility, which would still drain club finances. Way I see it Top is a moron but he has a reason to be here and if he bankrolls the club and stops suicidal decisions would have a function (still want him out). Rudkin has absolutely no reason to still be involved. Go as far as to say if he sacks Rudkin he probably wins back over some of the more recent KPFC converts
-
Think Nelson and Stolarczyk have every chance of progressing once the toxic elements are gone Think Choudhury/Thomas’ level is bottom half champ/top half league one, expect they’ll both have an alright time, especially if they’re not being relied on in anyway Silko Thomas is crap, only gets mentioned because we had to stick him up front twice, I would rather Wanya in the squad than him
-
Just need to wait until a name we really really want is in close talks like Rohl last summer, then we know the next name will be our actual manager. Gonna guess heavy talks with Challinor/Skubala and then hire Chris Davies/Russell Martin

Jordan James joins on loan - Official

Could see West Ham bringing him in to replace Fernandes/Paqueta -
Think to me these are the classic rumours- you get the fun names, then the controversial ones that people lose their heads about, then the eventual crap hire who is slightly better than the controversial ones
-
Would be a very good second choice for next year on a lower wage you’d imagine. If we are really broke this and Ross Stewart might be the move for us
-
Agree with the majority but can promise Nelson will not leave for £2m
-
Think if Hamza stays it’ll be more a build with the experienced academy lad who can cover 3 positions rather than build around- you build around Souttar, Braybrooke, Page and if we pull a miracle off, James
-
Ah, thought he was a free- for the record, his signing for Birmingham is the idea we should be following albeit maybe cheaper
-
If we could convince him he’s a great shout, type of manager we should be after, need someone to buy into a project for our youth to get the time they deserve
-
Doyle would be the perfect signing for our situation, someone who could head up a rebuild over the next 5 years or so
-
Two reasons I’d have for loans this summer- 1- Immediate promotion frees up more funds and loans will go back, meaning either we go up and rebuild in a league with better players available to us, or stay down without the extra finances not tied up 2- We will be able to get better players on loan than permanently, which feeds in to point one, as staying in league one would cripple us a smaller third reason is also we can get players in that we may then be able to keep, with the added bonus of a trial season
-
Average in League one is affected by sides with 5k stadiums like Bromley and Mansfield, we do not need to be at the average to be able to run. Think a lot of assets leave but I think we will be able to keep 3/4 senior players and make a few signings and survive, the issue will only come if we don’t straight back up
-
If we can I think our main target this summer is sell around those two and start them next year
-
This is my point- selling him for less would be really thick, would rather keep and lose on a free then sell for 2.5m
-
Either 10m or keep for me, we can sell others to make up the shortfall and he is someone I would want to keep about
-
Beg him to stay and make him captain for the reset, I’m sold off the elbow on Ivanovic
