Not tourists, the club has a partnership with Calgary Blizzard. We send coaches over to run a football camp in Calgary every summer and invited some of their team over for a game, they've come over for games multiple times in the past https://www.facebook.com/CalgaryBlizzardSoccerClub/photos/leicester-camp-is-back-this-summer-anyone-who-has-attended-previously-knows-this/1168149978646460 https://facebook.com/CalgaryBlizzardSoccerClub/photos/a.3537111119734738/4245215265590983/ In fact the partnership was how we scouted our former youth GK Chituru Odunze who now plays for Charlotte FC

Luis Castro, manager at USL Dunkerque (Ligue 2). Previously managed Benfica B He had them winning 2-0 against PSG on Tuesday night in the French Cup semi-finals until PSG scored from a wrongly-given corner and equalised by a deflected long-range shot, then predictably Paris's mega millions won out in the second half. But they were playing bloody good defensively and their counter-attacks, and control of possession in the limited amount of time they did have the ball, were excellent. If luck had gone Dunkerque's way a bit more then they might have even been winning 3-0 or 4-1 as they had some other high quality chances that were missed. In the first half they nullified PSG's strengths beautifully, you wouldn't have thought you were watching Ligue 2 players, more like an upper mid table top flight side. They beat Lille and Brest in the earlier cup rounds too so he clearly knows how to play against top teams. But of course, Rudkin hasn't heard of him, and even if he had, Castro hasn't managed in the Premier League so we'd never go for him

Leicester City and VfL Bochum - Blue and White Friendship

Clothing collection designed with Herbert Grönemeyer whose song is Bochum's anthem, and to reflect the region's industrial heritage Quite cool, part of the proceeds will go to supporting youth social programs in the city. I'm tempted to buy one of the shirts but I fear for my wallet if the prices are like the ones from 1860 Munich's collection from the same brand 😆 -
"KPFC: rotten from top to bottom" would fit on the banner as a compromise tbf Fair fuchs to ozvaldo for organising it either way though

Viveash is still out of a job – with how much the club love hiring ex-Cov staff you'd think offering him a a role here would be a no-brainer!

Can Union FS do another Let Slip The Dogs of War tifo but with Vestergaard the one holding the leads?

Slight correction: the game against Tottenham was rained off, and Spurs couldn't reschedule so a behind-closed-doors friendly against a Thai team (Port FC) had to hastily be arranged. Then nobody knew what was happening because Port posted on their social media to advertise the match then deleted the posts and said it was "on hold", because they initially said fans who had tickets to the Spurs game could attend the Port game, only to realise that local licensing laws prohibited spectators for such a hastily-put-together fixture 😂 -
PepsiCo once managed to trade billions of dollars of their product for a large chunk of the Soviet Russian naval fleet (briefly making a soft drinks company the 6th largest navy in the world before they sold it for scrap) That's already a better track record than Rudkin

Think of all the Free Larb Flavoured Biscuit Sticks you can have at the Man U home game!

Brendanball vs Russellball will make for hilarious Old Firm matches

Just noticed Middlesbrough have lost 5 games in a row (and 7 in 8)... if they sack Carrick, Ruud should do everything in his power and Yanited connections to bring him here as a first team coach or assistant
-
It's baffling - either Ruud mistakenly thought he could manage with a shoestring staff (he previously made comments along those lines, saying he's happy to work with what he had, but that might just be PR waffle), or Rudkin/the board think that he'll start to pull results out of his arse with a shoestring staff, or Rudkin/the board have fuched us even more PSR-wise and have left us unable to afford the salaries of a decent, experienced coach or two Promoting Andy King up from U18s assistant to first team coach, when he's very inexperienced (he was player-coach for his last two years at Bristol City) and his role is seemingly more geared towards integrating the youth players, isn't going to be enough to make Ruud a success here
-
Playing as a second striker/AM on the left now, getting involved in the press/block when Plymouth have the ball rather than staying up top as an outlet And Cardiff have conceded as I type that

Commentators are very impressed with him

He also had talks with Hamburg but they're another basket case of a club -

Any of our fans over there for today? 2-0 against Dortmund 😂 -
My post was clumsily worded so I'll dial back a tad sorry Moshiri was put under sustained pressure by Everton's fanbase and they got him to do a 24 minute video conversation with the chair of the fan advisory board (right after the papers ran a story that Moshiri was putting the club up for sale!) Both before and after this interview Moshiri was (often) similarly secretive as our own board and blamed his lack of divulging information on the share purchase agreement with 777 (https://theesk.org/2024/05/27/moshiri-kicking-the-can-down-the-road-again/), but their FAB also appears to be independent of the club unlike ours, and have more supporters groups than we do, so they actually had some leverage to record a video interview and publish statements saying what little Moshiri said without the approval of the club's head of comms 🤔 Again I appreciate the position the Foxes Trust are in!
