  1. Doesn't wash for me. He knew what he was doing was wrong, no matter how many voices were in his head. Schizophrenia may have caused it, but doesn't excuse it.
  2. I think mine was three. He was absolutely fine. Wouldn't want it to be regular - it's a bit of a pain - but as a one off, it was a proud moment.
  3. Gotta feel for the families here. The system has shafted them. Deliberately befuddled by the CPS legal process into tolerating a.manslaughter charge, he effectively gets let off under the grounds of insanity. Yet was pretty.much proved in court he recognised the gravity if what he was doing and aware of the consequences. I'd suggest pretty much anyone who commits murder is under some cloud of temporary insanity - crimes of passion etc. So how comes he gets a free ride? No parole board, no minimum term. No longer under the judicial system, but health.
  4. I really don't take any moral high ground with these lads. They are under their own pressures and have their own upbringings, moral codes and values (or lack of). Danny Simpson. Wes. Vardy Jap incident. Palestine flags. And others elsewhere...Kyle Walker, Jack Grealish, Harry Maguire greece punch up, Madders copping off with random birds in Ibiza. I wasn't even bothered with Wayne Brown voting BNP - his business, his right etc. I think it's largely how we as individuals view players. As heroes or as humans
  5. I'm not condoning it pal. But I live in the real world...I can assure you many people drive after having had a couple of drinks and/or when they think they are borderline. Few drive when pissed, I grant you that. But pushing your luck is a basic human trait. But it's silly as in black (looking) lad driving a flash car at 1.15am is far more likely to get you pulled over. He was asking for trouble.
  6. I'm more concerned that the players all.live in Nottingham now. An unintended consequence of moving to seagrave!
  7. Unemotional about it. These lads are kids to me. Difficult to get too atsey about silly behaviour. Lots of high horse riding on here. Were those of you keen to slaughter Hamza so harsh on Wes, who did the same?
  8. I agree. I am totally comfortable - more than any other player we have - that the move / pass / feint / foot in he selects is the right one and one he'll execute. He's extraordinarily reliable
  9. It's a shocking stat. Even games where we've been cruising, Huddersfield / Rotherham / Millwall x 2 / Brum let alone the Ipswich, west Brom and Sheffield Wednesday debacles....we've looked nervous at the end. To me it's been obvious since very early on that opponents are happy to be losing by 1 or even 2 goals against us up until the last 15 and then they go for it. I'd do the same if I was them. I've banged on for a while that being better isn't good enough. You have to beat them too. Man City rarely have this problem, they keep going right until the end and almost always finish teams off.
  10. There is a significant portion of our fanbase that simply aren't 'football people' I don't doubt their support (in their own way) for the club, but the nuance of the game; 'reading the game', culture, tradition, etiquette simply pass them by.
  11. He really really don't like Dennis does he?
  12. How will lots of people buy tickets that they haven't a clue are available? The only sources of publicity are zoned on a very niche group of people that follow of foxestalk, UFS or the Foxestrust. Imagine a cinema refusing to publicise tickets for a film on their socials. It beggars belief
  13. His contract will surely have been paid up. No savings made, other than one less meal at the canteen and kit to wash
  14. Lodgers. Just reading about a homeless guy - holding down a a full time job - on the BBC website. He can't afford rent. The old days those in the same situation - a Curly or Eddie Yates - would lodge with an Emily Bishop or Hilda (As for the name checks above, iykyk)
  15. Does anyone else remember Steve Walsh appearing on 'through the keyhole' in the late 1990s? Or did I have a fever dream? Oh how I've looked for this on YouTube but to no avail. The panel (unsurprisingly) failed to guess the homeowner. When Walshy was revealed, there was an awkward applause from panel and audience, all clearly dumbfounded as they were still none the wiser as to who he was.
  16. Been impressed with Preston these opening 20 Edit; seem to be playing two strikers too. How refreshing!
  17. Note to @Union FS and @Foxes_Trust ...it ain't enough for the club to pay lip service to general sale. It needs to be marketed too. If a tree falls in the woods and all that....
  18. I said it earlier in the thread and it was meant without much exaggeration or hyperbole - someone down their isn't right in the head. They actively do not want to sell tickets. On every front; business, financial, strategic, community...The anti ticket sales policy is on the fringes of insanity.
  19. Was definitely filmed earlier this week. Mark Selby even referenced the Ipswich game plus KDH posted the shoot on his story this week
  20. That comment does seem a tad immature tbh. Bit unwise
  21. Exactly that. If every time I went online to get something from Amazon, but they refused to sell to me unless I took out prime, you'd soon give up and not bother even checking for the freak occasions Amazon choose to offer a 'no prime needed' day (especially if the offer received minimal promotion) The club have inflicted unseen and uncountable damage on the casual supporter base.
  22. The staffing at football clubs in general is quite interesting. A large part of the lower ranks and foot soldiers are Uber fans, and would work for less than peanuts. They see their job as if it were a monastic calling. These lot wouldn't challenge anything internally. The more senior staff delight in separating themselves from the emotion of the club and revel in making hard nosed bastardesque decisions, as if to show they are tough business people and aren't for wilting under mob pressure.
  23. None of which, we should remind ourselves, is his fault. This is a self inflicted disaster. Absurd transfer fee. Grotesque wages. Contract renewal on even more grotesque wages. Being awful but being picked and being relegated because he was picked
  24. He's been largely garbage for us. At best he's been quiet and average..wtf would Chelsea want him back? He'll be loaned out to a middle ranked championship or European club within weeks
  25. Surely it's almost certain we have sent him back, but agreed to him being 'recalled' in order to protect his value. Good business on both parts. Even if I'm.wrong, it's serendipitous that he's gone. Football gods pulled a masterstroke for us here
