What's going on ATM the stock and share prices? Anyone in the know? I've had a very welcome 4% lift these last couple of weeks.

Very few are. And some of those few that are have chosen that lifestyle. The rest must've either made astoundingly bad decisions in their life or be uniquely and incredibly unlucky.

Granby street could and should be a lovely entrance to the city. It wasnt that long ago it was. The Grand is there. San Carlo. Is that cool gay bar still going? It would'nt take much to fluff it up. In the absence of a.sufficent Police, the council could do worse than to sink 250k a year into funding 5 or 6 permanent street wardens to shoo away the filth towards belgrave road, where, let's face it, indian people don't give two shits about legless, drug addled paupers on skateboards. They'll all have fun there together

Or maybe he's taking responsibility....

Shame that. I like us in these world tours. We've an extra three week break compared with other PL teams and the play off winners. This pre season is the perfect time for a couple of far flung trips

Agree. Pearson in retrospect embarrassed himself managing Kane. Firstly, we didn't need him at that time. We had Wood, Nugent and Vards.ffs,.more than enough at that level Second, he didn't know how to use what was clearly a talented footballer..(tho I'd have never have guessed he was THAT talented tbf)

Absolutely this ...Simon Reeve is a pro, and excellent at his job. Martin Clunes ballooning over the Serengeti, Nadia Swahili doing the pilgrims walk to Santiago de Compostela, no thanks. Tbh, I'd love to see them again. I might fire them up on YouTube. John Carter, from Torremolinos, highlighting the price of a pint and English breakfast.

I wonder what the correlation is between those who leave on 86 mins and those who shop at Fosse Park?

Always slightly amused that Ghezzal was absolutely hammered in his time with us, yet was a very respectable player, albeit not quite good enough for what we needed at that time. Yet rank ordinary ploddi players like Yunus, or Under, or the criminally abysmal Tete, got far less stick and often, got quite a lot of advocates. Edit to add; Perez. He is miles and miles ahead of Yunus, yet few players pissed off the crowd as.much.

Thanks for that. Just Googled Pears family. Something stinks with them, only founded in 1952 yet 6bn of property. So not old money (as I thought it might be). Dirty money? Either way, stinks of Lizards. Wiki extract below: '6,200 apartments" in Berlin, managed through a series of "letterbox companies".[4] In 2019, a collaboration of investigative journalists in Germany, headed by Correctiv, tracked down the ownership of about 25 companies with property in Berlin to six firms in Luxembourg, who belong to two firms on Cyprus, who belong to two firms on the British Virgin Islands, who the journalists concluded to be controlled by the William Pears Group.[5]'

Central Government always looking for local government savings, yet we have absurd councils within Greater Leicester duplicating services and working against each other. Urban 'city' places such as Oadby, Wigston, South Wigston, Blaby, Thorpe Astley, Glenfield, Anstey, Birstall, Thurmaston, Syston- probs 200k people - have no say in a prosperous Leicester

For those from NW Leicestershire

This absolutely vile specimen is firmly filed under 'although I don't believe in death penalty, I'd gladly see her hang' Link warning.. upsetting animal torture report https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hereford-worcester-68968718

The only way we dont do that is if we had a 10 point deduction and therefore achieved just 20 regular points in a season. Context, 20 is just a win and a draw more than the absolutely appalling Sheffield United, surely the second worst team ever in the PL after Derby.

At a rough guess I'd suspect Dan Bates reads this site, as part of his job if nothing else. I hope Dan knows that a lot of people felt the comment from Vards was in poor taste and enjoy that he's filming it for us on our behalf, not for himself nor Vards. It's a mini lesson for us all I guess in the old phrase 'never meet your heroes'

I'm.sure he just feels a bit sheepish lapping up adulation yet having not.contributed.. I like him. He seems a nice lad and I think he's a very decent asset as a player. Not too drawer but infused properly a really decent player. he's had a year.of his career taken away from.him through no fault of his own.

It wasn't awful..it was fine. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed the fact it wasn't perfect. These events are for us to enjoy, not to watch choreography perfection. I kinda love the fact Dennis looked bored shitless. That said, if he was employee of mine he'd have a bollocking and an instruction to wave. He's being paid today to wave and smile, whether he enjoys it is an irrelevance!

I know this is any tradition, but I walked past the bulldozed market today. What a boon it'd be to the city if it was left razed to the ground and created an open piazza instead with the corn exchange as the focal point. Hopefully the new design somehow creates a feeling of openness and space rather than that hideous roof

Itsy a point I made earlier, but I'd love for my constituency to have a local independent candidate to stand with a genuine interest/passion/theme that they were prepared to campaign for in parliament. I will not be voting Tory or Labour. Neither deserves endorsement. They just govern by ChatGPT to garner the odd % point of popularity here and there. Government shouldn't be a sport to win, Dave Brailsford style. They should have the decency to lay out a format they believe in and let the public say yes or no.

I know what you mean but wouldn't it be nice to actually have a political elite that actually had a mix of charisma, leadership qualities and a political vision with integrity? Being forced to settle for the mundane in the face of no other options isn't particularly appealing

I guess you mean political spectrum? You are probably right, except nobody really knows what Starmer stands for apart from his fanatical anti anti semitism. If you mean a Blair comparison in terms of status, charisma and missionary zeal, Starmer isn't even 0.1% of Blair

Anyone going down to Lord's for this? Still might yet be a sporting declaration depending on how today pans out

Fair points however, it's likely part of his inconsistency was his lack of game time. The one time he had an extended run, he was electric and very very difficult to defend against As for Enzo, Kels has credit in the bank. Enzo not. He was handed every possible advantage a manager could ever wish for. Money, squad strength, squad depth, weak opposition....and yet still lost a quarter of his games. The manager hasn't got goodwill from me that Kels has, who's done it at the top level

Laying into a player that's given us probs 50% of his entire career. Maybe he turned down a contract as he doesn't like playing just 10 mins cameos every 7 or 8 games? Maybe after 7 years he just fancies a new challenge. He's been underused. His best role is as second striker, which has fallen out of fashion. His weight of pass in that role is sublime; three examples off the top of my head Leeds away last season as someone else pointed out The KDH, Winks goal at wba this season Sending Barnes thro at Eindhoven.. He's done that countless.times in addition to his goals. And some of his goals have been gorgeous. That spurs away at wembley was one of the best long range shots I've ever seen. That little delayed finish away at Brighton. His goals away at Villa in the league and league cup. Delicious. I'll miss him. And wish him well. Hope he gets a great move.

It's a discussion for another day rather than a celebration day,.but I think it might be best for both parties if we part ways. He leaves on a.high and held in high esteem.. reputation intact. Kinda a folk hero in future years. We need a totally different tactical approach for next season. Today our midfield fell into basic traps and was bullied. This is gonna be X10 next season. Opponents will be able to both press high AND set traps in midfield to turn us over in the middle.
