  1. Difficult question to answer but I'd recommend looking into Daniel Bryan's WWE career and also the 'summer of Punk' (CM Punk) - in particular the 'pipebomb' WWE wrestling has become increasingly reality-based and that was the real catalyst for it AJ Styles from TNA has also been a runaway success and revelation in WWE. and then yoiu have the issue of Roman Reigns who has been constantly pushed right to the top despite the fact the fans hate him (first Raw after Wrestlemania this year was a good example). Plus Undertaker has finally retired, its worth watching his last few Wrestlemania matches, particularly vs Brock Lesnar
  2. Hard luck NI. Although that safety first approach in Belfast has ultimately cost them, when they should have gone at Switzerland. Swiss don't look up to much, just making up the numbers
  3. Think we have to be honest here, Albrighton is a very limited player with a good right foot and a set of lungs on him. In that he'd be better suited as a right back and he's not defensively strong enough. He offered good balance to Riyad on the other wing but he neither helps us keep the ball or beats a man to unlock a defence. He's not good enough, even when on form
  4. Would be such a shame if Dennis Wise got cholera
  5. PS still hoping Ipswich somehow muddle their way into the playoffs and winit. Although their team would be lucky to get 5 points in a PL season......
  6. Well maybe you'll do even better than 14 points in the Prem League next season eh!
  7. Defence strong, not so sure about the midfield and attack though, when you look at other teams like Boro, Derby and Wolves they look to have better options in MF and upfront
  8. You make a good point, but in reality tightening up a defence often means sacrificing the quality of the attack
  9. Jesus almost feel sorry for them. Then again, they are so arrogant. For the record, I don't like Rowett but wouldn't begrudge Derby coming up at last. Don't want to see Wolves getting promoted, not a fan of them, but it looks inevitable. Would be nice to see Boro make a charge ditto Norwich and would love to see Ipswich back in the PL. I reckon Wolves, Derby and Middlesbrough will be promoted.
  10. Don't like Sheffield United, the club or the fans, but do like Wilder. Don't think they'll go up however
  11. I'd like to see someone else in his position to be honest. Had enough of the hoofs into space without looking and crosses with his head down, the lad's a machine but he's not got the composure or passing ability that we need
  12. Horse and Jockey, not too sure. Could take the Jockey on his own if the horse galloped off mind.
  13. GaelicFox That's you that is

Jon Rudkin, little known until he was promoted from his role as academy director in 2014, has always been a soft target around the place. GETTY - CONTRIBUTOR Leicester director of football Jon Rudkin (left), with Foxes owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, played a huge part in Craig Shakespeare’s sacking But Craig Shakespeare, sacked by Rudkin on Tuesday, will regret that now. In the fullness of time, goalkeeper coach Mike Stowell and head physio David Rennie may well feel the same way. Rudkin, with the full support of the club’s Thai ownership, is running the show. Shakespeare, falling back on his CV as a decent central midfielder with Walsall and West Brom, talked himself into the job when Claudio Ranieri was fired. AFP OR LICENSORS Shakespeare was sacked earlier this week after a dreadful start to the season LATEST LEICESTER NEWS OUT-FOXED Chris Coleman holds talks with Wales over new deal after links with Leicester SAVE ME Craig Shakespeare's half-time plea to Leicester stars to stop him being sacked Carlo Ancelotti, Roberto Mancini and Sean Dyche are five potential new permanent Leicester bosses Over the last few months, he has talked his way out of it. Shakespeare under-estimated Rudkin’s power — he has become a trusted and valued member of Leicester’s management team. And Rudkin was never really having Shakespeare. As the clamour to give him the job permanently intensified last season, Rudkin was busy trying to convince David Wagner to leave Huddersfield. To his credit, Wagner — knee-deep in a promotion race with Huddersfield at the time — did not want any distractions in the final weeks of the season. Those negotiations, with Rudkin desperate to tempt the German coach to leave the Terriers, are the reason Shakespeare was left hanging until June 8. PA:PRESS ASSOCIATION Rudkin had wanted to bring in Huddersfield Town boss David Wagner When Wagner turned the Foxes down out of loyalty to Huddersfield chairman Dean Hoyle, they were left with Shakespeare. He was regarded as the interim manager — but Leicester were never really that into him. The trust, the bond and the alliances which developed when Ranieri led the Foxes to their 5,000-1 shot Premier League title have all been eroded. Shakespeare denied stabbing Ranieri in the back when the Italian was fired by Leicester just nine months after leading them to that crazy title. PA:PRESS ASSOCIATION Assistant Michael Appleton will take caretaker charge of the Foxes Whatever Shakey said about it, he always looked a bit shifty sitting in Ranieri’s place at press conferences and in the dugout. Shakespeare, with that permanent too-clever-by-half look about him, always appeared like a man who had been up to no good. But he could have got away with that, if results on the pitch had been decent enough. Instead, the system refined by Ranieri to such an extent that the Foxes won the Premier League crown by ten points, has quietly been discarded. There is a feeling captain Wes Morgan, so influential two seasons ago, is coming to the end. It is also an open secret that Wilfred Ndidi and Vicente Iborra, the two central midfielders brought in to do the job of N’Golo Kante, are not in the same class. PA:EMPICS SPORT Shakespeare with title-winning manager Claudio Ranieri The dressing room dissenters, with Kasper Schmeichel and Jamie Vardy the biggest noises in camp, have been sounding off in recent weeks. Shakespeare changed it up again on Monday, making the fatal error of shoving main striker Vardy out to the left to accommodate Kelechi Iheanacho. They drew 1-1 with West Brom — not the worst result — but still one which left Leicester in the bottom three. For Rudkin, it gave him good enough reason to get rid. THE most striking thing about Lianne Sanderson’s evidence to Parliament is that she spoke without fear. Former England star Sanderson stuck up for her mate Eni Aluko at the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport committee hearing, throwing herself at the mercy of a pack of parliamentary bloodhounds with a raw and passionate speech. PA:PRESS ASSOCIATION Former England star Lianne Sanderson gave an impassioned defence of Eni Aluko As she saw it, Aluko has been wronged by a system that has been ingrained through years of ignorance and mismanagement at every level. It is people like Sanderson, no matter how much damage she did to the FA by lifting the lid on the culture around the place, who should play a major part in its reform. Just because she does not mind her Ps and Qs is not a good enough reason to overlook her suitability when a new governance team starts to take shape. Sanderson, 29, who has had her fair share of issues with England’s management team, went in there and told Government how it is. With that kind of attitude, Sanderson should be in demand. LUKE SHAW’S lamentable performance for Manchester United’s Under-23 side at West Ham has strained his relationship with Jose Mourinho even further. Mourinho made Shaw travel to Lisbon for the Champions League clash with Benfica, but he did not stand a chance of making the bench. REX FEATURES Luke Shaw continues to struggle under Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho Shaw, 22, barely lifted a leg in the 4-2 defeat against the Hammers’ second string and The Special One was livid with him for downing tools. The left-back, earning £130,000-a-week, has made just one first team appearance this season — 45 minutes as a sub in the EFL Cup win over Burton Albion. RONALD KOEMAN’S position at Everton is not the only one under review after a poor run of results at Goodison Park. Steve Walsh, promoted in the game as a transfer wizard when he was at Leicester, is struggling to meet expectations at Everton. DAVE PINEGAR - THE SUN Steve Walsh – now at Everton – is under pressure after a poor start by the Toffees Although Koeman was desperate to land Gylfi Sigurdsson, Walsh’s fingerprints are all over the other summer signings. Despite chewing through the best part of £100million to beef up the squad, the Toffees are fifth from bottom of the Premier League.

  15. Nothing we didn't already know, selfish, horrible politicking **** that he is.
  16. Yeah, whats with his legs!!! It's like he's caught in 2 minds whether to do it or not, then goes through the motions and ends up looking a right tit. Should have just taken the guy out to go proper viral
  17. Come on Wales. Nobody wants Irish anti football at any tournament. Horrible team
  18. The man revolutionized our club taking us from League 1 into the PL completely modernising our whole structure and giving us a winning mentality. No other manager in our history has improved s to the extent he did. Everyone is entitled to an opinion but the facts show your opinion is way off the mark
  19. Because under Pearson, we actually looked like winning games for the most part. We attacked with pace, passing the ball, played some lovely one-touch stuff, had a gameplan. Got many plaudits from neutrals despite being bottom. the effort and heart that team showed made many of us proud to support this team. We finished mid-table in our first season back in PL under Pearson without having spent the money we have on the team subsequently. How does that make him not good enough for the Premier League?
  20. According to this article you are not mad: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/41468743
  21. Make that 2 of us. Although I would also welcome Pearson back with open arms!
  22. 'I need something with substance' 'I want to be part of something that has an impact' Man's a driven, born winner. Boggles the mind why more people can't see how him being back at LCFC would be the best thing for our club.
