  1. I believe the only thing based on promotion, is the size of fee. Especially with Akgun, I think it increases by Around 1 million euros. However; it still requires triggering by the number of appearances.
  2. Hopefully we get to see him in play in the Premier League under Maresca. I think he’s a decent player, but Enzo’s tactics mean that Dewsbury-Hall is arriving in the box and his stamina is being utilised late on for goals, so he’s going to get some good numbers. I don’t believe him to be more committed than the other players, as some people make out, just because he runs around a lot. Re his celebration, his best mates have left and I imagine he’s going through a personal growth stage as he’s finds his way in the changing room dynamics.
  3. As with Pearson this guy is someone that will shape the club positively on and also off the pitch. However, as with Pearson when Maresca leaves I worry others will have more input again.
  4. The bus station is magnificent!
  5. Pfft. That second Braga goal!
  6. Rodger’s signed Vestegaard as a replacement for Fofana, outrageously bad recruitment! He didn’t play in the Premier League last season. He called Rodgers out for his bizarre behaviour, whilst others said everything was fine. The guy has no culpability in our relegation at all, those comparing him to Danny Ward are being ridiculous when you consider what the goalkeeper contributed last season! He’s been 7.5 out of of 10 for the season so far, although I’m not sure he has a long term future here. However, his body language and demeanour has changed already throughout this season, he’s now celebrating every goal and looked to be genuinely upset to be missing Wednesday game when he was booked. I’ll back anyone who is clearly putting in the required effort and playing above average on top of it. I was worried after the first couple of games, but he’s only got better.
  7. Well we did do, didn’t we? In February!
  8. Yes exactly, he didn’t take his chance. I’m not sure he did well in the games either. He seemed to get a nosebleed if he was asked to take on his man, or move the ball positively.
  9. I’m not sure he did take his chance, except for the goal he quickly found himself back in the u23s. I think he finds himself on the bench, but he doesn’t go ahead of Abdul or Akgun.
  10. Calum Britain joining the Stephen Dawson club.
  11. I’d play him ahead of KDH against Preston.
  12. Give Akgun a start on Wednesday.
  13. Yellows cannot be overturned. At least Coady will get a runout
  14. Best player today! Shame he misses Preston match.
  15. If I had that I would too!
  16. So did I when I flipped the Leicester Mercury site open. It’s a dangerous area, in my lifetime is has always been very diverse and for most of it as equally safe as other parts of the city, however I believe that has changed within the last 7-8 years. I worked in a business during my teens and early twenties, genuinely fearing for my safety round there. I am very surprised that the demagogues within certain parts of the media have not cottoned to this change in the area.
  17. Probably depends if we’ve sung about Hillsborough or poverty.
  18. Narborough road is somewhere I’d disagree with the mayor, there are issues down there that are caused by a transient population(cannabis grows on every road and anecdotal evidence from myself that would suggest it isn’t very safe).However, that is also a result of studentification within the area. Nonetheless, the issues last year are lazy evidence, if cited by the current Home Secretary, it is a very nuanced issue that doesn’t have a basic explanation. This city is great for its diversity and multiculturalism but less of a black and white opinion on it is needed, people can disagree with various points and not be categorised as being polar opposites of each other. Unlike what Braverman is attempting to do!
  19. Needs a new contract, simply based on him being an asset that was losing value by nearing end of contract. However, not sure leadership comes naturally to him, see previous incidents. Although, Maresca may be grooming and nurturing him by openly praising him and giving him more responsibility.
  20. Buxton Blonde in the Buxton taphouse, a pint of cashmere and citra in the redwillow there, plus a half of their breakfast stout which was unfortunately poor.
  21. That’s effectively the non-league experience here, but the football is much better in Germany for that price clearly!
  22. Yes they’re the only choice on in England!
  23. Shame none of the top games are on tv!
  24. 3 pints of Marion, Lincoln Brewing Company, at the Black Horse on Braunstone Gate this evening. Very Nice, however, the 10/12 people including me, who were sitting in the front bar soon scattered to pastures new as the musicians came in. Looking forward to the next three nights in Buxton and going through their pubs.
  25. Wanya is so average, he’ll be the Craig Noone of league one.
