Paninistickers

Probably but you can never tell with Cooper. It's plausible he simply expressed an opinion in training. We all know Vesty doesn't hold back. We've all seen Faes openly berate/debate the manager on the pitch. Winks was dropped for questionable reasons. Edit; Mavididi another who clearly hasn't bonded with the manager

Personally I think we are all over thinking it a bit. We did well first half, it was nip and tuck. Second half they got their noses in front and we fell apart to a physically stronger, well organised team. It's the PL. It happens. His starting xi has improved tenfold since the opening couple of games. It's that fcking bench now he needs to replace. I mentioned at start if game that unlike saints away, we were gonna get worse as the game wore on as we had nothing to bring on (Skipp apart - but he's not a game changer) Ward, BdcR,.Luke Thomas are amongst the worst players in the top two, if not three divisions. Ayew is a game finisher, not changer. Soumare. Jesus wept. For me normal bench - supposed 'injuries' aside - would be iversen, Abdul, McAteer, Bilal, Ricky, Vesty, Hamza. At least there there's speed, fitness, passing and height. Vastly different to last night.

We got schooled by a streetwise, physically stronger team. A routine defeat that simply happens in the PL every now and then.. The fact that it's that disgusting red filth who bossed us all over I have to put aside

Pity. I was worried pre match (not knowing he was out thro injury) that against a physical and quick forest team, we'd miss his aggression. Our starting xi is pretty decent - low mid table - and tbh, first half, I was surprised how we quickly we rebooted the Enzo possession game. But I say same every week, that fcking bench.

Where was VK today? Anyone know?

Just reading that story of the online catfish bloke. Those warnings ahead of a news story about disturbing content normally don't even scratch the surface for me, you kinda get numb ....., but this is amongst the most upsetting stories I think I've ever read.

They didn't. They comfortably looked the worst team in the league and were trying really hard to break their duck. Sometimes inferior teams just win.

Yeah, I agree. The sentences dished out are deterrent and about maintaining public order. Just not convinced that's right or fair. Put it like this,.if I was directly responsible for sending to prison a silly old man who got carried away whilst waving placard about NASA and thr deep state, I'd feel a bit sheepish tonight

Haha, yup, thanks for the heads up. Yes, he died in custody was what I was trying to link!

His sentence wasn't about individual justice. It was political. His crime under ordinary circumstances might attract a suspended sentence or community order. 2 years 8 months imprisonment was grotesquely disproportionate to the crime.

I wonder if the judiciary and Starmer now feel a bit guilty over throwing the book at a silly old fella https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy8x5x51l3vo Edit; link to correct story https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cpw5w8nl5ezo

Far from convinced of her innocence, but that she was convicted beyond reasonable doubt is pretty flimsy

Agree. They look very very ordinary indeed. Gibbs white apart, We have better players all over the pitch.

I've mentioned it a couple of times, but I'd accommodate the two wingers or trio of winks, skipp, Wilf by forgoing Vardy. Either then play Stephy as the most advanced player or Buonnotte as a false nine. It's counterintuitive to remove a striker to be more attacking, but as we are light on attacking xG anyways, I don't think we lose much but we gain a lot in box crashing and rapid breakways with a stable midfield.. 4231 Mads Usual defensive four Winks, Skipp double pivot Abdul, Wilf, Stephy Buonnotte For me that's our strongest starting xi

It's always a bug bear I've had with the city of Leicester. We have thriving, affluent villages with decent pubs restaurants in the likes of Kibworth, Mountsorrel, Woodhouse, Bosworth etc ....but the punters won't set foot in the city centre. Interesting that that filth is now catching up (falling back) into that dynamic

Was that Sheff Utd? The season Vards scored in the last minute around December and snapped the corner flag? I'm sure they hadn't won at that point

That was Winks and Faes. They took over tactically once we smelt blood and urged calm and to get saints retreating. For me it was tremendous matchplay from them both. Just think the players do stuff in spite of Cooper, not because.. But as always,. wonderful analysis. Thanks for the huge effort you put in.

Thank goodness for the firestick and watching the neutral PL feed.

Undoubtedly the weirdest fan base. Plus, they don't do pain. They don't do defeat. If they lose,.or get relegated,.or whumped 9-0, they just consider it as all part of the forest masterplan. And happily slink off to the ice rink to start chatting about the oldest pub in the world and Paul Smith. Edit; like when Wes joined us. A mate of mine was delighted.. genuinely delighted, as he considered some fella called Michael Mancienne better...it was like 'yet another good decision by us!'

Congrats Wilf. Thought yesterday was yet another 8+/10 performance

I can't sit with this. I detest the place. A genuine, visceral all consuming loathing. Their nightlife, the unis, their fabricated 4 birds for every fella stat, their trams, that council house in the middle. I'd love the see the place nuked

If he could get the team - Inc the bench - right, we'll give most teams a game and a headache. Bilal gotta be dropped. There isn't room for him and Buonnotte. He'll have to be the heir apparent for now. That red filth have some decent proper players now but also clowns like that Yates

Couple of years ago I had a Ukrainian ski school instructor. The man was an absolute lemon. But I was surprised at his absolute lack of embarrassment that he wouldn't go near home and would leave it all to 'the soldiers'. I mean, easy for me to say never having walked in his shoes but it was the lack of apology for it that surprised me. I handed him a white feather!

I cannot stand Ramsdale. It's a bit unhinged. But I really don't like him. Not very Christian of me, but I'm revelling in his distress tonight.

I really don't get this winks stuff. He isn't faultless but we are far better team when he's on the pitch. Him,.Skipp and Wilf are three very very decent PL players who are hard work for any opponent to handle/better in the league
