They asked him if he knew he was leaving and he said "yes and no". I think reading between the lines the club were under a transfer embargo so couldn't afford to officially release him in case they weren't allowed to sign new players for the coming season in which case he would have got another years contract.

Jordan Ayew (interest confirmed by Percy)
The whole world smiles replied to iancognito's topic in Transfer Talk
I want this to happen for few reasons. 1. The manager thinks he will suit are style of play and after watching the game v spurs you can sort of see why it would have been good to have someone help us get up the pitch and win some free kicks to relieve the pressure. 2. It will upset some of the most negative, moaning, whinging, posters on here and at this point I find the meltdowns quite amusing. 3. Our armchair transfer experts seem to hate it and seeing as they thought tete was the 2nd coming of Christ and Winks was a terrible signing then this has a much higher chance of working out without their blessing! -
A little bit cringey but I thought this was pretty good!

Leicestershire County Cricket Club
The whole world smiles replied to Sods's topic in General Football and Sport
Mixed emotions delighted we are through bitterly disappointed with the streaming service. Paid for it this morning and listened to Hampshires innings at work, deliberately avoided the coverage and foxestalk and planned to watch Leicestershires innings with a nice cold beer when I got home and put the little one to bed at about 7ish. I have done this loads on YouTube. Sadly the stream doesn't seem to work after the live event has finished the club seem to expect you to be able sit glued to a screen for 6 hours on a Friday when you have a job and family. That is not how people consume sport these days. Annoyed because if I had known I would have kept listening to it. Anyway whatever that's the last 4 quid they will get out of me. Delighted they are through -
The forgotten story of … Leicester City: Ice Kings

It's not that much of a forgotten story we seem to hear about them every year or so. -

Is today on a stream or YouTube can't find a link on the clubs twitter if it's a paid stream can someone send me a link. -
Claudio retired I think Rodgers is at Celtic, what's your point?
-
Following that logic So who was running the club when we won premier league, fa cup and comm shield wins, and 3 European runs? Who was director of football?
-
It makes me laugh some foxestalkers think we are absolutely screwed the worse run club ever from top to bottom yet simultaneously get raging angry and seem confused that we aren't able to attract any of Europes top young talent easily.
-
There's plenty going on at the club that I am not happy with for instance: - The season ticket card fiasco. - the astronomical price increase for non season ticket holders. - the lack of transparency over the ground move. - the lack of transparency over anything really. But in terms of signings I'm a little bit calmer than some of the more hysterical posters. Last summer's business was I think we can all agree was very good yet we didn't get fatawu, mav and akgun till after the season started. It's not ideal but signing players takes time unless you are going to be weak and cave to the transfer fee and their salary and contract length demands which I'm sure no city fan would want us doing judging by the clubs current situation. Also if you are going to have a meltdown for trivial reasons like another club has shown an interest in a player your after then you run the risk of it just sounding like whinging and when we do need to speak strongly in one voice like the season ticket card thing it loses it's effectiveness.
-
This message board used to be very reactionary and have various meltdowns throughout the season it's now got the point where it's just one long meltdown and it's becoming quite boring and to be honest they lose their significance. A bit like white noise on a telly. Honest question how do you do it? It must be exhausting... if (checks notes to see what it is today) Hoffenheim bidding on a player we are interested in sends you into a spiral of rage and disappointment maybe football isn't the sport for you or at least maybe Leicester isn't the club for you.
-
Yeah I tend to agree I used to enjoy watching him play scored a couple of brilliant headers on the end of marc albrighton headers too. But when you think he cost 30 million and was probably on over 100k a week and the club has absolutely no idea how to utilise him and he left on a free. then if he wasn't one of the biggest donkeys of the last 10 years he has to be worth a shout for most disastrous signing.
-
Anyone signed in the summer of 2016 has to be in with a shout so... Musa, Kaputska, Hernandez, Ron Robert Zieler, Slimani. Such a great opportunity to build on the success of the previous year. Utterly thrown away by awful signings.

Concerns about the direction of the club
The whole world smiles replied to Lambert09's topic in Leicester City Forum
Where you there? Honest question. -
People just moaning for moaning sake now. Ages of permanent signings this summer: 20, 18, 23 and a less impressive 31. Plus we have given will alves a new deal

Unless I'm mistaken we can lose Sunday and it's still in our hands? -
Very exciting link anyone know how he got on in turkey last year?
-
I'm sure the main factor in his decision for a loan move in Jan was game time. He had a lot more chance of playing minutes at hull than he did at Leicester with Dewsbury-hall, ndidi, yunnis, Kasey all in his position.

Too soon to hit the panic button?
The whole world smiles replied to SafewayFox's topic in Transfer Talk
Not how people saw it at the time. To be honest we wouldn't have got promoted without signing mavidivi and fatawu and they both came quite late in the window. Let's judge the window at the end of it. -
Too soon to hit the panic button?
The whole world smiles replied to SafewayFox's topic in Transfer Talk
I Seem to remember a lot of hysteria and panic last pre season, with the rained off pre season tour In Thailand and with wanya and Kasey starting the season on the wings but it all came together. Obviously you would like to get your business done early but that isn't always realistic and I honestly think we are a player or two shy of having a competitive side (in terms of staying up). Like most of you I am not totally happy with where we are but the message board has more or less been in a constant state of panic for about the last 3 years and to be honest I find it a bit boring. -

Tells the story of an unprofessional and unscrupulous agent who is prepared to shit on people he has just been working with in public to try and make him self look good without realising he's making himself look quite bad.
