We definitely need another striker. Vardy is injured already and only scored 3 goals in his last PL season. Daka looks bereft of confidence. Cannon has 1 minute of PL experience. Szmodics has no PL experience either and would be a gamble, but if we do get shat straight back down, at least we'll then have a striker that we know can score goals in the Championship.

Particularly the way too excitable Matt Baker, who keeps hanging medals around people's necks before the scores are revealed.

No medal for Whitlock.

Kazakh that went first nailed it.

6 attempts on goal, one on target. What more do you people want?

Ok Oh

What the hell just happened in the windsurfing? Why did the Brit and the Israeli make the course ridiculously long for themselves?

If you're not in contention at the first corner you've basically got no chance.

All those wins in the semi-finals count for nothing cus she cocked-up in the final.

Got to be Lenny Kravitz's Ayew gonna go my way?

Player has nothing but positives to say about Leicester after leaving – Frustrations don’t spoil experience By Sean Lunt 2nd August 2024 Striker Kelechi Iheanacho has heaped praise on Leicester City, as he gets set for a new start at Sevilla. The forward has been speaking today, with his comments covered by El Correo, about his move to Sevilla after leaving Leicester this summer. The striker was available as a free agent after deciding to let his deal with Leicester come to an end and not sign an extension with the Foxes. He had been with them since 2017 after arriving from Manchester City in a €27.7m deal after breaking through from the youth set up at the Etihad. Iheanacho went on to make 232 appearances after that, managing 61 goals and 34 assists in those games and winning the FA Cup and Charity Shield with them during his time at the club as well as the Championship last year. His final season proved to be something of a frustrating one, though, as he managed just 26 appearances in all competitions and just ten starts out of a possible 28 in the league. Indeed, he didn’t manage 90 minutes after the second of December as manager Enzo Maresca preferred other options. It seems it was ultimately that which led him to decide to leave but there’s no hard feelings and the striker had nothing but nice things to say about Leicester when he was asked. “Last season was a mix of emotions,” he said. “I played that first part of the season, and I didn’t get a chance in the second. The most important thing as a team was that we won the trophy. “We were a good group, and we did it for all of us and for Leicester City. That was the most important thing. It’s a good football club and a good family. It was great to finish with a smile and a trophy.” https://sportwitness.co.uk/player-nothing-positives-say-leicester-leaving-frustrations-dont-spoil-experience/?utm_source=Flashscore.co.uk&utm_medium=newsfeed

Jess Ennis still looking gorgeous on the BBC's Olympic coverage.

And Paul has to play Alcaraz in the singles before the doubles match so hopefully he's completely knackered by then.

Unfortunately it's the USA's Fritz & Paul in the QF for Murray & Evans. That's going to be a really tough ask.

Being a bit part player doesn't seem to have bothered him too much so far.

Avocado literally tastes of nothing.

He's not really played as an out-and-out striker at club level for several years. He sometimes still plays as a striker for Ghana, and in fact got a hat-trick for them against CAR in a 4-3 WCQ win back in June (Fatawu got their other goal).

Best we could hope for here would be a loan with The Arse subsidising a big chunk of his wages. Even then they'll probably insist on an obligation-to-buy clause which I think we'd have a hard time agreeing to.

Well he's still got 3 years left on an (alleged) £100k p/w contract. So yes, I'd think any club wanting to sign him would have to match that.

I know he's a bit of a Jack of all trades and master of none, but I'd have Schlupp back here no problem (for the right price) as he can cover several positions up the left hand side. He's shown at Palace that he can do a job at LB, LWB and LM.

Is Dom Smith of the Evening Standard just lazily regurgitating Nixon's 'info' or is this gaining traction? Btw I'd probably have Schlupperman back here over Ayew. https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/crystal-palace-jordan-ayew-leicester-transfer-news-b1173965.html?utm_source=Flashscore.co.uk&utm_medium=newsfeed The newly-promoted Foxes have made a formal approach for the 32-year-old, who joined Palace from Swansea in 2019. Standard Sport understands Palace are open to letting Ayew leave if an attractive enough offer is made, and the same is understood to be the case for squad player Jeffrey Schlupp. Both players are currently in the United States on Palace’s pre-season tour.

These trap shooters are pretty good but I doubt they'd be a match for me with the light-gun on Safari Hunt for the Sega Master System.

Thinking back to my own school days - demoralised teachers struggling to cope with kids that have zero attention span existed long before smartphones came along. Although they have probably exacerbated the problem.
