Surprised Neil Lennon links havent started yet. Remember a time nearly the leicester job came up his name would be mentioned. Great player but not convinced he by the man to take us back to the championship. Time at Bolton wasnt to be remembered.

Hamza's role model that one

Have I missed something? We sold him to Wrexham last Summer.

We're apparently still paying a portion of his wages until his contract with us would've run out

Unless we agreed to a lump sum

Might just be perception bias but Glasgow has a lot of Leicester fans 👀

I've spent a lot of time in Shepshed the last 10 years and I'm yet to meet a Derby fan. I'd say mainly Leicester and more Forest than I'd wish to see.

Two kids I went to school with (thankfully didn't keep in touch 😂) were from Shepshed and Derby fans

Felt like the presenter and the three guests they had on had nothing to offer except Conor "unbelievable" Coady saying he didn't expect us to get relegated this season, and the rest of them knew if they spurted out the classic "but your chairman won you the Premier League and FA Cup you ought to be grateful, let him spit in your mouth and be thankful for it" tripe that Jordan would have shut them up quick

Also noticed the youtube channel deleted a comment saying "Conor can't say anything, Leicester's still paying his wages" 🤣

Liam Manning as just left Huddersfield Town following taking some compassionate leave. Quite impressed the job he did at Bristol City, not so much at Norwich. Maybe he would be better in league one, ofc depends if hes looking to some time out of football for a bit.

Froze out Alves when their fans frequently commented how much better they were when he'd get those rare minutes on the pitch

Is that really the manager we'd want to build a team around our youth?

Lucas Kwasniok

Good manager but a príck
His Köln stint has soured my opinion on him as well, he'd be putting out bizarre XIs with players out of position or frozen out for unclear reasons, and angry tirades in press conferences. Not sure I'd trust him to bring through youth

"Lineups: Every week, he astonished everyone at FC Köln with his lineups. Even internally, Kwasniok's experiments were increasingly viewed with skepticism. "What did he pull off today?" even staff members in the press room would ask on match days. His reasoning was often incomprehensible. If his decisions had at least been successful, he would have had the upper hand. As it was, however, questions often remained. Against Hoffenheim, there were four center-backs on the pitch; in Stuttgart, suddenly, not a single one. One increasingly got the feeling that there always had to be one more idea, until eventually he lost himself in his own tactical maze. His meticulousness often got in his own way." 

"And for a long time, he also handled Said El Mala poorly. Only very late did he realize that such an exceptional talent always belongs on the pitch. By that point, a lot of damage had already been done."

"Very few knew where they stood with him until the very end. Complete trust was never fully established on either side."

"One of his biggest shortcomings, aside from his sporting performance, was his communication."

We’ve produced some really good players over the past 10 years, possibly in the top 6 most productive academies, certainly in the top 10.

 

I just can fathom the best loan opportunities we get are in Scotland and relegation threatened L1 and L2 teams.

 

Logan Briggs is obviously in the running for PL2 POTS, I’m certain League 1 clubs would have been interested but you hear murmurs about the club turning loans down all the time.

The reason why is that other clubs employ competent people to sort out sending players on loan, ensuring the clubs suit the player and vice versa, and keeping in regular contact with the players out on loan. We hire loan managers like Guy Branston who think you're not ready for men's football if you're not six foot four, or Robert Huth who seemingly was only in the job so he could use the credentials to get free Millwall tickets.

Abit loud. Not sure about the surgeon scrub collar either.

Nike has a thing for making "unique for the sake of being unique" collars instead of keeping them simple, Macron kits are another bad offender

I like that the PSG kit goes back to the full-width unbroken Hechter stripe and the royal blue colour instead of navy though

wonder what will happen

in my humble and unbiased opinion the EFL should overturn the results of Southampton's 17th and 32nd league fixtures of this season, and award the 3 points to the other team

Vardy from Ranieri leaving to Christmas 2019 was unbelievably good. His record with shots to goals was absurd. I think he scored 20 from 60 shots one year. 

 

He wasn't a silky player but had a lovely technique. Some of his assists were excellent, had great vision.

And somehow Puel wanted to freeze him out of the team

Schmeichel is injured too isn’t he? 

Jonathan Northcroft's article in the times said Drinkwater, Mahrez and Kanté won't be there, and Vardy and Schmeichel just in the stands if they do come.

Alves getting some good praise from Huddersfield fans on twitter. Even they’re not sure why he’s hardly played. I guess we won’t know the full details. 
 

Surely has to be involved next season? 

Liam Manning is a herbert of the highest order

Think of all the beach holidays in the Algarve he can book now

Final season of the adidas deal?

It's going to be £12 teamwear again like the first pink kit

WE DON'T HAVE TO WATCH HIM ON THE PITCH ANYMORE

Blackburn commentators rightfully calling out Rowett for this

"Ayew has let you down all season, why are you bringing him on now and taking off the youngsters who will actually be here next season?"

FVCK OFF ROWETT YOU UTTER COWARD

Wednesday's takeover is finally completed

 

https://www.thestar.co.uk/sport/football/sheffield-wednesday/sheffield-wednesday-takeover-done-8477835

EFL have overturned their points deduction next season too https://www.swfc.co.uk/news/2026/may/02/sheffield-wednesday-reborn/

As part of this process, the EFL Board exercised its discretion, as provided by the Insolvency Policy, and concluded that it would not be appropriate to impose a 15-point deduction on the Club following its exit from Administration. As such, the Club will begin the upcoming season on 0 points. A position has also been agreed on wage and transfer parameters that is both acceptable and supportive of the Club’s forward progress.
