  1. I thought he played OK today - sloppy for their second goal but can't remember much else wrong. Made lots of clearances and some nice tackles. He's far from being the second coming of Wes Morgan but I doubt we'd get much better as a 4th choice centre back. Feels like there's a lot of confirmation bias leading to a different scapegoat every week... Perez, Maddison and now Vestegaard.
  2. If you mean the one in South Norwood (formerly known as the William Stanley), it changed ownership a few years ago but the new owners have just gone under too. It was called the Shelvedine Goathouse. Long shot but don't suppose anyone has a ticket to sell? I live right next to the ground but it was sold out before I could get one. So will be walking around looking for a tout!
  3. He hasn't settled in well but I think there's been a bit of an overreaction. He isn't a total shambles - and Soyuncu and Amartey were both worse than him on Thursday. I'm not sure who people actually want us to play...! It's not scientific or anything but SofaScore's average ratings have Vestegaard as our joint 3rd best player this season (Vardy 7.40, Tielemans 7.15, Vestegaard / Lookman 6.90). I know it has been a frustrating start to the season (and God knows I moan at times) but I sometimes wish our *supporters* would *support* the players a bit more... especially those who are going through a tough spell.
  4. I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure they say max stay apart from on matchdays - when it's unlimited. They shut the branch when there's a home game...
  5. Leicester fan in South Norwood checking in. Pubs - really nothing to write home about. The Portland Arms on Portland Road is OK (5 min walk leaving via Clifford Road exit). Police will probably usher you to leave via the Station Road exit, but I doubt Leicester fans will be allowed into the pubs near the station. They do sometimes make the Cherry Tree for away fans but it's a dump. The Albion is definitely home fans only and The Jolly Sailor and Shelvedine Goathouse have recently closed. The Craft Beer Cabin is good but tiny - it will be rammed pre-kick off. Parking - you can actually park in the big Sainsburys next to the ground on a matchday, have never done it though and not sure how early you'd have to be to get a spot. There's no residential parking on Sundays so you shouldn't have a problem. If I were you I'd try the Sainsburys first and failing that head down Park Road to Tennison Road, then if no joy on those onto one of the small roads Tennison leads to (Enmore, Birchanger, Howard). Tbh it's a grotty area - we are moving away later this month, can't wait! Been trying to get a ticket for this one but no joy so far... if anyone hears of a spare one give me a nudge...!
  6. Still waiting on my ticket to arrive... anyone having any joy phoning the ticket line? I can never get through and don't even get the chance to queue, they just say "try again later".
  7. Thanks all... phew, have bought my tickets. Thought I'd totally messed it up! Thanks for your help.
  8. I thought members tickets went on sale today... was it last Sunday?? I can't find a link on the ticket website and fear I've missed it and it's sold out...
  9. My only concern would be having too many 'first team' players! We already have 25 players who will all want to play more than they miss... challenge will be keeping players happy. I've listed the players by my perception of quality for each position... insane how much depth we have now. 2 GKs: Schmeichel, Ward 5 FBs: Ricardo, Justin, Castagne, Bertrand, Thomas 4 CBs: Fofana, Evans, Soyuncu, Amartey 7 CMs: Ndidi, Tielemans, Soumare, Praet, KdH, Mendy, Hamza 4 AMs: Barnes, Maddison, Perez, Albrighton, 3 FWs: Vardy, Daka, Nacho The balance does suggest a new CB and AM could be needed, at the expense of some CMs we seem to be stockpiling. I think we need to move Praet and Choudhury on before bringing in any more Prem first team level players. I like both, but they'll hardly play!
  10. Subs: Ward, Morgan, Justin, Mendy, Albrighton, Under, Iheanacho
  11. Please message me if you have 1x Wolves away ticket to sell. Thanks!
