Just play loudly Dave Edmunds hit single from the 1970 album “Rockpile”!! That’ll get rid of them!

RVN switched him to the other side second half, presumably as he and JJ played like virtual strangers, particularly in their positional play. Seemed to work as he did manage the assist, although I thought he had over hit the pass at first. The lad tries hard, hopefully he can improve with coaching.

Think it’s also a risky move for Ruud. If he fails and it’s going to be a tough job, it’ll tarnish his reputation. Plus if he loses his first game some of our fans will be on his case immediately. Let’s hope our fans give him time.

The fans do regularly. I don’t blame the players for going abroad. They would just get loads of abuse if they had a piss up in Leicester by our entitled judgemental fans.

Bit like most of our fans.

Felt sorry for him. How many touches tonight, very few. Playing in a team without much heart doesn’t help. He had a really poor game, but needs minutes and players around him who can bring him into the game.

VAR have had a mare, there was no conclusive proof to justify overturning the Lino’s decision, but we just have to accept it and move on. They just guessed as they had no cameras in the right place. The PL and VAR are run by a bunch of amateurs, as proven by the PL writing ambiguous rules, which don’t stand up in a court of law. It’s basically going to need a siege mentality from all of us this year, as the PL and VAR will not be looking to do us any favours.

The referee should never get in the way of the ball. It means he’s in the wrong position, too central / near the play and needs to understand he should be on the periphery. Too many referees like Mike Dean have to be the centre of attention. I used to work with a premier league ref in the 90’s (when the money paid was a pittance) and he would have dropped himself from the next game if he touched the ball whilst in place. Inexcusable in his opinion. Indicates a poor referee.

This guy is a better option than Zaha. Ayew is a team player, a grafter, doesn’t go missing and in a team that will be fighting for their lives most games, has the know how, skill and aggression to mix it. I’ve seen Zaha play live maybe 12 times, over rated and peripheral too often. Not up for the fight as indicated by how many teams moved him on. Think this is an excellent signing and £5m is not a massive punt over two years. We’ve got to get behind him, so I would ask the boo boys who are plentiful on this forum to give him a chance.

TBF, there have been many brilliant saves, but crucial one’s stick in the memory. Poole, Keller, Kasper at Wembley. But the save Kasper made against Spurs from Kane on 13th January 2016, when he knocked the ball into the ground and up on to the bar won us the league I reckon. Think this one would get my vote. I remember the day well because I had a serious chest issue after Huth scored, but refused any help until after the game, unless I lost consciousness. Told everyone around me to keep cheering for the last 10 minutes! We’ve had many great keepers. Although I’ve been supporting since 62/63, one of my favourites was Mark Wallington.

Beat me to it, that save plus Keller’s have always stuck in my mind.

I forgot to add the title of this topic typifies the mindset and negativeness of many of our so called supporters.

100% agree with this post. The majority of so called fans on here are so negative, the site is toxic. I sit in SK2 and was ashamed of some of the fans around me last season. Even when we were winning the league, the spite and nastiness levied at the players for any mistake was criminal. The players aren’t stupid, they know many of our key board warriors are waiting to pounce on their first mistake. Instead of constant criticism, we need to create a supportive environment (we are supporters after all), but no doubt the boos will ring out if we are losing at half time on Monday. If we do get relegated, then this will be down to some of our supporters for the toxic environment they have created as well as the board and management.

Great win, always confident even when three down. 290 was well below par. 320 minimum score to put pressure on the lads. We bat deep, as long as we batted out the overs, always favourites to win. I just wish some posters wouldn’t post negative posts when we are still in the game. Three down in a 50 over match chasing a modest score, you are still in the game. Keep the faith whatever!

You can’t help when you happen to be born and I don’t agree with your argument. I know, from many posts, FT don’t value or respect aged supporters, but fortunately for you, we will start to die off soon. The system worked well for some years and whilst I agree it does need a serious looking at, don’t have a go at old people in P1, we’ve paid our dues. Just because you are younger, doesn’t make you better, more deserving supporters. When you’ve paid money to watch Leicester for over 1500 games, come back and have a go.

True to an extent, but I’m going to less away matches this year even though we’ve been promoted. I went to about 20 last year. I got my first ST in 70/71 and have had a continuous ST for at least the last 25 years; but at 72, health and the match day expense take its toll. I’m on 704 points and my partner on 690, but we’ll only do about 8-10 matches this year. Historically it was normally 15-18, often 20 plus. I think new ST holders if they are committed will move up quicker than they think, with the older members falling by the wayside for one reason or another.

Not so sure they are the best side. Germany should have had a pen to beat them and France bossed second half yesterday and missed very presentable chances and should have forced extra time. Spain are a top side, but nowhere near the team of 10/12 years ago. We can win, but need no mistakes and take our chances.

Our officials are a disgrace. If it takes that long for them to make a decision they shouldn’t be in the job.

I really liked Ayoze, but do admit I was mega pissed with him when he missed that chance at Chelsea.

One of my favourite players, but I got royally slagged off in the pub and maybe on here for sticking up for him. I just loved his ability. Too good for most of our fans to understand. Being old school, I love talented players, but the general consensus on FT is that unless you’re kicking the shit out of the opposition and running around like a dervish you not a Leicester type player. I’m not surprised he left with all the criticism he got from FT. Really pleased that he playing for Spain, when most on here didn’t want him

Typical Southgate. Totally useless.

Forest were happy to breach FFP. The owner is on record saying he would sort any penalty. As it happens he didn’t, but they got away with it as the three teams who went down were so poor.

Got to give Cooper a chance, what has corboran or Potter actually won recently? Potter seems to be a bit of a drama queen and failed at Chelsea with a very good squad.

Fair comment to be fair. Fully agree. Plus I don’t blame him for going the amount of shit he got from over half the fans on FT in April. Loads on here wanted him out - looks like you’ve all got your wish!

Thought this myself. Enzo would have had to have just beamed in from a different planet not to know of our financial problems before taking the job. We were already about £130m in losses for previous two years before he took the job, already well over the permitted figure before the last set of results which were known to be further losses. I personally think Chelsea is a bit of poisoned chalice insofar as their owners don’t seem to give new managers any time. I hope Enzo stays, but if he goes so be it. I won’t be gutted, just say good luck and thanks for last year.
