  1. Dubrovnik was really busy in October so I can only imagine how packed it would be in July. I preferred Split out of the two. Stayed there and did a day trip to Dubrovnik, but it’s 3hrs on a coach. Krka national park close by to Split was nice. Plitvice is doable as a day trip, but again is 2-3hrs on a coach and will be packed in July. Love Croatia, it’s one of my favourites, but would highly recommend Montenegro too
  2. Best news of the season so far! Highlight of 2026 already on 13th January!
  3. Just get him out, whatever it takes. Just a shame it’s not an obligation to buy! So many errors, it’s hard to pick a worst of! Two og’s at Anfield - the second in particular was special, a one man kamikaze at home to Forest last year stick out in particular. Takes no responsibility for the mistakes he makes, and blames everyone else. Would genuinely prefer some of the dross we had in the mid 2000’s and L1 over him. I’d say it’s been a pleasure watching him in a blue shirt, but it really hasn’t 😂
  4. Please be true 🙌. Shame it’s only an option to buy, gives them six months to see how ‘wonderful’ he is!
  5. Pitiful ‘display’. Being to the left of the goal, the lack of communication between any of the players is incredible, but not surprising. Nobody talking at the corners, Stolarczyk looked like a rabbit in the headlights waiting for the ball to come in. Gutless performance. Mavididi was shameful. Was blowing after 25mins, should never have started the game, and his half hearted leg dangles (sorry challenges 😂) were symptomatic of our overall display. Monga did more in his cameo than Stephy all game. No team ethic, no cohesion. A group of individuals with no leaders and some kids chucked in. Looked better with Monga and Page one, but who is there to guide them when the going gets tough. I feel for any manager who inherits this ‘squad’ but he should be getting more from them than this. Sheff U weren’t even that good! They just boxed clever, won the physical battles and duels and bullied us. More streetwise all over the pitch. We gave up as soon as it started, it was just inevitable how the game went. Just a sorry state. Made it an easy decision not to go on Monday night. What a sorry state this club is. New year, same old same old.
  6. Two poor mid table sides scrapping it out. Derby had less threat than us which is an achievement. Reassuring to know however bad we get, there’s always 6pts available against Derby. Onto the next one
  7. After that debacle of a first half against Sheffield United, I’d have snapped your hand of for 7/9 points. Frustrating as the second half at Bristol was the other night, I do feel that there has been real improvement since. Great goals, closing down, winning tackles, young players getting minutes. Nice to come away from a home game with some positivity for a change. Surprised how poor Ipswich were in the end. Jakub is a good shot stopper, but is having a shaky spell since coming back in. Not convinced, but prepared to give him time.
  8. Frustrating as this whole season is going to be. We looked comfortable first half, but as soon as we conceded so quickly after the break, the writing was on the wall. James coming off may have been necessary, but the sub made was crazy! Gave them even more of the midfield and momentum than they already had. Good that the youngsters are being trusted, but they have no strong senior pros to back them up, and that is a huge concern. Credit to Bristol City, they came out and were relentless second half. Even in our good moments, I can’t recall seeing energy and desire like that from a Leicester side for a long time now.
  9. Looks tired and jaded at the moment to me. Great to watch on form, but has played a lot of minutes for someone coming back from so long out. Trouble is we are so reliant on him, I can’t see him getting much of a rest any time soon
  10. Enjoyable watch for a change. Ruthless first half, and I thought generally well managed second half. Abdul looks like he needs a rest, played a lot of football after a long time out. Gave the ball away a lot second half. Thought Silko had his best cameo by far off the bench. Nelson solid, and I thought some of the ‘usual suspects’ (Vestergaard, Thomas et al.) had good performances as well. Props to Skipp as well. Not a £25m player by any stretch, but he does work hard. Him and James together worked well today.
  11. Got Porto booked for February and Krakow for March! Any tips appreciated
  12. Weirdly it gave me access to buy today but when I tried it then realised it wasn’t my priority?! At least it’s 70 odd quid not wasted I suppose 🤣
  13. Now coming up as buy but no seats available at the moment!
  14. Only encouragement I can see at present is there’s four coaches on sale all with space available, so they must be opening more blocks at some point?
  15. Why they just don’t have the blocks open this morning I’ll never know!
  16. Obviously not! But it’s patently obvious as it is will be with Cov & Sheff U, and a few others I’m sure, that there’s plenty who come ‘out of the woodwork’ for the local games and don’t bother with the rest. As has been said many times, the system needs reforming. It is frustrating for those of us that go to the majority of away games that we can, then miss out on games like these. More to do with the priority system than anything.
  17. Wonder if Bristol City will sell out so soon 🤔
  18. Have to say I was fairly near the front, didn’t hear anything of the ilk that is being reported about. Not the right approach to take to say the least from those involved, but as others have highlighted, when you have tw**s singing is this a library during a two mins silence, I doubt that it would register in the one brain cell they have that something like this would be unacceptable! One thing that was good to hear Saturday was sack the board getting louder. More pressure needs to be coming from the stands on that front, and behaviour like what has been described just pushes people away from putting that pressure on the club in the right way.

  20. I’d expect us to sign more than two players who can actually run?! Two is sufficient is it 😂
  21. Typical Leicester. Bit more spirit than Saturday, but both sides woeful. Glad I stayed in, shame I watched it. Glad to see Nelson finally get a chance, but my god we have no pace bar Abdul and Daka
  22. Normally optimistic, but this shower have sucked the life out of the place for the last 2-3 years . Going to Norwich on Saturday for my sins, and after wavering this morning, stuck with my decision not to go tonight and not put it up for resale. Our seats will stay empty tonight. Back the lads sure, we all want to, but 90% of them could not give a crap about the club or the fans, so for me, they can stick it tonight after that sorry excuse for a ‘performance’ on Saturday. We’ve seen some s**t the past eighteen months, but that was up there with the worst of it. If we win, fantastic, if we lose, not ideal, but either way just show the fans who are there tonight that they are professional and give a toss. For far too long that hasn’t been the case, and sadly I don’t see that changing on a consistent basis any time soon. Quite frankly at the moment, I can’t wait to see the back of most of the squad, along with Rudkin and the board. What a sorry state we’ve become. A lesson in how not to run a football club
