  1. Can we just put the whole squad on the transfer list
  2. I am more worried that there is a Supporter Engagement team, that is one thing the club do not do very well so there is a team of salaries that could be saved surely.
  3. I think we need to get on with it, the income from the expansion can count towards income meaning more profit and more we can spend and stay within the rules. I am not talking about empty seats etc I mean income from the fanzone area, the arena, the apartments, hotel rooms, extra income from the shops and the like. Heck if we get in trouble again we can do a Chelsea and sell the hotel to ourselves etc. You have to look at profit made as an extra to the ticket. Ie if the average spend per head on things like parking, food, merch etc is say £20 then you could reduce ticket prices a little to fill the stadium which in turn would equal more fans, more merch sales, more food sales etc. Football is a business now and you need those extra things like events in the arena building, the apartment income etc to help make money to stay in the rules.
  4. All the players we have sold and let go since we got relegated and still picked up relegation money and promotion money and if that means even after losing pretty much all your bigger named players with any value that you still cant meet the rules then the rules are just completely ruining football. I am pretty much done with football now, it just isn't fun, it isn't fair and its getting boring.
  5. I have this horrible feeling that he dont want to play and get injured because of a big move on the cards for when the window opens. I hope not as if he goes I cant see us staying up.
  6. Just out of curiosity but is anyone sat in Morrisons Cafe to see if they can spot who is about?
  7. Vardy, player manager - not got the badges, just pay the fine
  8. This is just one thing that worries me, I would rather two up front.
  9. Iversen Ricardo Souttar Faes VK Mendy Tete Maddison Barnes Iheanacho Vardy We need to go for it, two up front and swap Vardy for Daka at half time
  10. The thing that gets me is we know all of the players are better than this, Ndidi was on elf the best in the league, Vardy was better, Barnes was better, they all have been better. I really think with a new manager this players will come good again. We did great when they played how they wanted to play rather than how we was set up from the start.
  11. I think the squad is too good to get relegated, I really feel that with a new manager and playing more attacking football and less sideways then we will be okay. However I do think we need to get BR out now so that the new manager has time to work out who can play where and what he likes before the Jan transfer window as he will need to know who he can get rid of. I do think we are wasting a lot of time just staying as we are, the players are better than they currently play.
  12. I voted sack and it is not a knee jerk reaction. Here are my reasons why. I have not been happy for a while now at the way we play. We get the ball all the way up and then go back to keeper. I feel we pass side to side and back all the time in the hope that we score from the handful of chances that style gains. That works with a team of very high quality players but we are not top 4 in terms of player quality. I do not think zonal marking works with defenders that simply cannot zonal mark. We find too many players completely unmarked while defenders are getting in each others way. We constantly play out from the back when players lack the ability to do so all the time. We used to do so well nicking one every now and then but now we insist on slow sideways and backwards play. We have played this way so long that players have now forgotten how to shoot properly. He might be a good manager but he does not play a style of game that I like to watch. Players like Ndidi used to run forward with the ball and pick out some great passes, We cant string a decent couple of passes together at all now they all just get cut out. How many times when we play out from the back are our players facing our goal and therefore the first thinking is pass back. Watch Ndidi and see that most of his passes are back or sideways. It is like we do all the work and get the ball up there then go all the way back and start it again. Just get it in the box more and let the strikers have a few more chances to score.
  13. I understand the need to promote green transport and encourage people to walk or bike etc but for some of us that have to travel from Skegness after work for an evening game we barely make it on time so wouldn't be able to park and walk. I just don't think 525 car parking spaces is enough for 40k fans and don't forget 220 rooms they will all want a space and it says some of the multi storey will be for hotel. Remove the residential and put another multi storey car park in and it would be a lot better.
  14. I think it needs to be a point deduction of some kind. The amount of crap they put every single fan through for 48 hours has to be offset. Although I feel it will punish the fans of those teams too it is maybe needed to keep the fans on the owners backs about it and then they have something to have a go about rather than something that didn't end up happening. Fines mean nothing to them, they can all afford to pay them. I think it has to be points deducted or transfer embargo. Something that actually effects them.
  15. There seems to be a few people thinking Vardy should be dropped and saying Nacho isn't good enough. I really do not think you can blame either of them for lack of Goals. In my view it is all down to how we are playing and the lack of balls that get up to them. Barnes and Maddison get a lot of their goals from things they create themselves from midfield. My concern is that we just do not get the ball forward enough for the forwards to get on it. Here are a couple of things that really bug me at the minute about how we play. 1) We try to always play out from the back and a lot of the time we lose it before the half way line. 2) Players seem to spend more time passing back than forward. It is like they look back before forward. 3) When we get a corner or free kick and we take it short and end up passing it all the way back to the keeper or even when we do get the ball up there we can have one chance then instead of chipping it back into the box or someone else running in with it a lot of times it ends up all the way back to the keeper. Just have a go, I believe some pf these players are better than they are showing and they need to have a go, I would much rather it was chipped in for a chance and lose it than go all the way back and then lose it. 4) When we have 10 mins to go and are behind or level and one defender passes to another, then back again and then back again. 5) We don't seem to vary play. I think a lot of teams have figured out how we play now. 6) A lot of passes that do go forward are too hard. When your 40 foot away from a player and there is no one in between you don't need to blast it. 7) Lack of movement off the ball. It is like most players just wait till its right to them. I have just watched extended highlights of last 5 games and when we have a throw in there is no one moving to get into a space to get the ball. 8) Stupid clearances or passing the ball right in front of our goal. It is very dangerous and there is no need. From watching the last 5 games again I have noticed a real lack of urgency, lack of closing down. Don't get me wrong I am very happy at 3rd in the table but I really think we have through lack of effort and being predictable and negative thrown away a very good chance to be even higher. Some of these games we should have won.
