Ric Flair

Opening game of the season i thought 1st half we were really good, theh they were all over us 2nd half. Monga then had a couple of really good efforts but they were an impressive side.

Done more than enough to show he's an impact player at this level quite comfortably. I am excited to see him effect games for us next season.

Fair points, I would still have to disagree with the way you judged it though. I've just listened back again and Jake particularly talks at length about respecting Guy's opinions especially on things we have absolutely no evidence to challenge even if ours aren't aligned with that. I suppose what this comes down to is (as this is the first controversial guest we've had from the feedback from our listeners, even more so than Ballague) is to be more alive to challenging guests because acknowledging the feedback we've had from our listeners shouldn't be shied away from. Look at how many pages of replies on this thread came in the last week after Branston. To have not covered it wouldn't have been right and as I've said, Jake and Jord genuinely were buzzing with Guy's input as its a topic we've not covered as much as we've wanted to. So whilst you're right we've said some things without Branston being party to it to immediately respond, I don't think it's out of order for us to have covered the post pod feedback. I'd happily have him back on, as would Jake and Jord and I think another debate could be brilliant.

Yes my man! Been calling for Souttar to be used up front for over two years now.

Another 10 miles in the bank early this morning. Absolutely loving it at the minute, it's nature's gift.

Hahahaa absolutely not, pure money maker ain't it that.

I've entered, hoping if I'm really rude about how I secretly hope I won't be selected means I actually will.

Eh? Jake did question him on the assessment of Rudkin (being the best in the business) given we've then declined and his answer wasn't very forthcoming. I also asked why we can't blood more academy players and " because you can't " is hardly very ground breaking. Jake and Jord both thought Guy was a very good guest and said so this week. So I presume you mean me? Having listened back I was irked by how Branston talked about our academy, especially comments about Ben Nelson and said so. Don't think any of us have thrown him under the bus, as I've said Jake and Jord think he was very insightful, but it was amusing him thinking McAteer was 6ft 4 or whatever.

I meant in theory an ambitious Championship club could attract such a player. We won't go anywhere near him 😂

Would be an immense couple but not unrealistic.

Louis Munteanu please

His contracts not up this summer?

Phenomenal

Jamie Donley

We got a taste of this deeply devastating feeling in June 2016 when the bombshell was dropped he was close to joining Arsenal. I remember being in total bewilderment and was beside myself. Couldn't concentrate at work and think I fcuked off for the day. The feeling of elation when he stayed was indescribable and it's astonishing to think how different the bond and story between us and Vardy would look and feel if he had gone. Whilst he'd already fired us to the unthinkable which we know can never be bettered, I hold most dear the longevity of him being here and him being ours and no-one else's. He elevated us from being an ordinary club to being box office, we are now back to being nothing special and the feeling of emptiness is difficult to deal with, it already was prior to today's announcement. The whole 13 years are my favourite Vardy moments, we've gone on holiday to Rhyl for 2 weeks and ended up in Hollywood all inclusive for free for over a fcukin decade. He's some boy.

His brace away at Sunderland in 2015/16, more specifically the 2nd goal. The outpouring of emotion from me matched Ranieri's who if I remember rightly was in tears. I was more stressed during that game than any of the others down that stretch for some reason. Jack Rodwell had a chance to equalise and had a howler and then Vardy wrapped it up.

Well that's fcukin broken me. It shouldn't be a shock but truth be told, I was never going to handle Vardy leaving. Football and Leicester will never be the same, I can accept that. It hurts like hell though. There's too much to process, maybe now I'll actually let that Prem title win sink in because as far as I'm concerned, I no longer identify or acknowledge the present or future in football. I'll just re-live the last 13 years thank you very much. BIGGER THAN THE CLUB 🐐

I can confirm this is true.

Jonathan was absolutely top class, quite possibly my favourite ever guest for insight in to how our club does or doesn't operate. Found his comments on what we are potentially lacking in the role Rudkin is being asked to do very affirming. We need more football people doing a lot of that role, we've been swept aside by teams who have the structure in place.

Decent move for him

Kwame Poku on a free has got to be a priority target for us.

Just about to head out in the torrential rain, everything in my body is telling me not to. So for that reason I'm fcukin going.

Big red flag on the lack of young players Rohl has opted for in his time at Sheffield Wednesday. They already had a nucleus of experienced journeyman but he's added a lot more too, albeit a slightly better calibre. It's enough for me to not want him. Although the mandate on bringing through academy players and the ethos of being brave to build a team of young players has to be instilled by powers above and any manager has to follow through with that. If Rohl could do it then there's plenty to like about him, but I'd be asking questions why he's favoured experience.

Ideally the new manager has a track record of bringing through academy players and improving players. But more importantly the mandate is that that is their number one priority. We've already seen such coaches with experience of working with young players and then they've got here and been cowardly with it. The club needs to reorder its priorities. Top and Rudkin need to instill this requirement ASAP as let's face it they aren't leaving before any new manager gets here.
