Very sad news. Seems so mad with Sol only just posting a tribute to Sven last week. RIP.

Pretty much what I've just tried to say in my post 👏

I think those expecting signings this week that will bring goals are going to be disappointed. I believe the club think they've sorted that with Ayew. I reckon no more business will take place. Those saying we're worse than under Maresca. What would Maresca's passing out from the back approach have done today against Fulham's quality Premier League press? In any event it was effectively the same team at the back and up to midfield except arguably a more natural left-back. We're not good enough and won't be all season. I won't be beating myself up each week. I'd play Ricardo at right-back and Justin at left-back, Mavididi instead of Reid, and Cannon for Ayew but after that what else could anyone change? In all honesty, I don't think those changes alter much either. The quality is not there and we knew that. What would Potter do differently?

Am I overlooking Buonanotte in the first post of this thread? Looked in the loans section, and couldn't see anything there. Thought maybe it wasn't being updated now, but Ayew has been added.

Laying out my LCFC towel on the sun lounger at my Menorcan hotel this morning, and it's a nice, proud feeling.

Nothing looked good today, or against Palermo. 1) Slow build-up. Saw a bit of Leeds against Valencia at half-time. Leeds so much quicker than us. 2) We couldn't defend corners very well. Please not again. 3) No creativity in midfield, even with Winks playing. 4) Never looked like scoring. Just not creating chances. 5) I haven't been convinced with what I've seen from Okoli so far. 6) Cooper already appears to be selecting players ahead of others, when everyone on here would do the opposite, e.g. Soumare/Choudhury rather than Alves. All the ingredients for relegation. It's early days obviously, and trying not to be another doom and gloom merchant, but the signs really aren't encouraging 😬

Just found out now. Very shocked and saddened.

In fairness to Daka the service was non-existent tonight. We do need another striker, but there was nothing for him to work with. Soumare didn't do enough. Winks and Fatawu worked hard. Fair play to Palermo. They worked hard and were a good team. To say they finished well down Italy's second league, I wasn't really expecting that. Well done to all who travelled. Was hoping for a bit more...some singing. Not easy when, like where I was sat, there were quite a few Chesterfield fans in to watch. Well done to Vesty for asking the blokes at the front to move, so the kids could get pictures/autographs. Not that they did. More frustrating that they were Wolves/Spurs fans 🤔🤷

Thanks very much for that.

Parking is full and it looks like there's limited parking near the ground. Anyone got any useful info. re. where best to park, or which bus runs to the ground from the city centre?

Quicker pace is nicer to watch. Daka looking strong and sharp. Would prefer Fatawu on the left. On the whole, good.

Thanks. I was after fans in the the fox heads, and the guy in the Vardy mask with the ten more years sign if anyone has those.

Does anyone have a link to the post match celebrations at Preston? Seen snippets on YouTube but was after a link the full post match as shown by Sky. Also anyone got that photo of all the discarded inflatables? Just wanting to share with my grandson who missed it. Thanks.

Loved the mid-air Enzo. He looked terrified

All excellent tonight, but Fatawu brilliant. His tackling back was superb for a young player who obviously likes going forward. Does the hard yards

What a night. I retire tomorrow as well. Happy days

Yes. Grew up in Leeds and despite me being a Leicester fan since the mid 1970's, my mum and dad, (90 and 89 years old respectively), my brother, my son-in-laws, one of my daughters, (the other's Leicester), three granchildren, (one is Leicester) and mates are all Leeds. I'd like it for them. It also means we win the Championship. I can see us messing up at Preston after the celebrations, and if it came down to the final day, where we've got Blackburn fighting for their lives, and they've got an already relegated Huddersfield, I wouldn't fancy it. Also their six defeats is way too tidy against our ten, especially when we should have beaten them twice. To see them finish with eight would redress things nicely. As for why I think Leeds would win, I just think they'd both win their final games, and Leeds would go up because of goal difference.

Yes I get that, but notwithstanding, if we are turned over by a Preston side that are on the beach, it's a poor showing.

I think if Coventry beat Ipswich, then Leeds will go up automatically, and personally I'd prefer that to be the outcome.

The title matters to me. I'd have preferred to see a more subdued celebration until it's in the bag. There'll be so much hype about Ipswich winning it after having come up last year, and to say we've sat top most of the season, I'll be disappointed if we finish second, and it can be attributed to celebrations. Not a good look if Preston turn us over, and a professional performance follows on Tuesday by Ipswich.

Do you mean could we still be deducted points for this season, i.e. we might not be up yet?

Yes I was thinking more about those on the fringe, rather than young but first teamers. An example would be Nelson, and to an extent McAteer.

Yes but re. my question, won't spending just be laying the foundations for a future PSR fine? We've proved we're not very good at accountancy. I get nervous when I read fan pressure on here, saying we need a new CB, a new CF etc. I agree we do, but we may need to do a Luton Town this time round, and work with wgat we've got.

I know we needed to go all out to get back up, but I think if there was one disappointment from this season is our failure to really bring some of the youngsters through. Will be even harder flooding them in the Prem.

With our previous PSR misdemeanours are we in a position to buy anyone, or will we have to work with what we've got? Surely got to be much tighter control on the purse strings. Having said that I don't want any of those that didn't fancy it in the Championship to try and slither back in; you know who you are. He receives stick, but fair play to people like Faes who were prepared to stick it out.
