Waiting list is rather long I reckon.

Yes I remember previously (2007 time?). However despite enjoying rugby, I dislike the local team and would find it very difficult to share the stadium with them.

Well I presume it doesn’t because King Power would have been all over it by now.

Convinced that Paul Warne will be Rotherham manager by the end of the season.

More people look for streams, less people listen to football on the radio. Can’t have it both ways.

How would you feel if we shared our home with Leicester Tigers?

They would sack him because he has poor health? Bit harsh.

The issues of social care in this city are largely not a result of neglect by the local authority. The bill is increasing and the funding from central government is not.

Yes.

Soulsby and Dempster should have both stepped down at the time. I totally agree with your opinion on Soulsby and I’m glad he’s speaking up now, rather than a week before he applies for which ever section it is for bankruptcy. But the reasons for bankruptcy remain totally with the rising cost of social care, and people(not you) citing the King Richard 3rd centre and other council owned attractions as a good enough income source are laughable.

Re Soulsby, I think his decision to not engage with an East Midlands mayor role is even more infuriating when we’ve not even had a referendum on Leicester having an actual mayor. I don’t actually think the city council has been bad at all with the finances, this is completely out of their control. Yes there are smaller issues like you’ve mentioned but in 2015 there were huge failings in social work with the council, an assistant mayor stepped down, to only run again and is now assistant mayor again! These instances are indicative of the issue with our local politicians and possibly local politicians nationwide, they’re far too comfortable and it’s the same people on each ballot paper.

2-3 with Leeds winning. We’ll struggle to cope with their attack.

Yeah it’s clear that they’ve written off the hostages, looks like Israeli’s are starting to realise this too. However , Sky News said yesterday that Netanhayu is being taunted domestically with the fact that in 2015 he released the mastermind behind this terrorist attack in exchange for one Israeli IDF hostage.

Always side with the fans, especially since we were effectively gaslight by the rest of the football for eighteen months over Rodgers.

Hamas are a terrorist group, why would Israel or anyone believe anything they are ‘apparently’ willing to do? I find this post almost to be blaming Israel for the potential deaths of the hostages, rather than Hamas! (I’m sure this wasn’t your intention) I would like to point out that I do not agree with Israel’s reaction and actions to the terrorist attack but Hamas are solely responsible for the fate of those hostages.

For someone who was born in the mid 1990s, that list is a what could have been if I’d been born a bit earlier. I’ll be asking my Dad whether he remembers some of those names.

Untappd from the 1980s, wow! I hope you keep these lists.

I agree with your grievances re Soulsby but fundamentally this issue is caused by the epoch like rise in the need to fund social care and the lack of financial resources from central government to do so. This council has overall been reasonably financially responsible hence the large amount in reserves but that money will all be gone because of social care bill, ultimately underlining a problem that will engulf generations to come. I like Keir Starmer if not for anything more than I find him honest but Labour’s new manifesto does not do enough to cover this social care funding issue. I don’t want to engage in ideology/political talk, all I want this post to highlight is that social care will be the domestic issue of our time unless at least one mainstream political party engages properly with it.

Ipswich winning.

No he was asked to step down so they could appoint Darren Moore.

Went to the beer festival at the Black Horse (Aylestone), some nice dark beers.

Just go to the Turkey Cafe.

You have to earn a chance.

Well, they were decent before he took over.

Why have you equated it to woke niceness? Also what is woke niceness?
