String fellow

Today's defeat produced the 10th. double of the season against us. Arsenal, Aston Villa, Brentford, Chelsea, Fulham, Liverpool, Man City, Man Utd, Newcastle and Wolves have all taken maximum points off us. We've also not gained a single point against any of the top 8, with one game (against Forest) still to play, from amongst that group.

Jamie Vardy (ne Gill) has several links with the number 9: 1. Wears shirt number 9 2. Hat-trick in record 9-0 PL away win at Southampton 3. Captain in record 9 goalless home PL defeats in succession 4. Goals total of 198 which equates to 9 for every player on the pitch 5. His original name contains 9 letters

Shouldn't the time signature be 4/4?

So which is the ideal scenario? If there's a chance that Manchester City get a massive points deduction, how can our relegation be confirmed very soon?

I think you'll find it's 715 minutes, which is just under 12 hours.

...and in the unlikely event of us scoring, it'll be like a social experiment to see how the players celebrate, on the basis that they've all forgotten what to do.

Hasn't he been dropped from the squad?

When RvN refers to a change of momentum, does he realise that this is the result of an applied force to the body concerned, according to Newton's second law of motion? (More accurately, the force applied is directly proportional to rate of change of momentum.) As he appears to be completely unable to apply the required force, how will the desired change of momentum actually occur?

Last night, we surpassed the Number of the Beast - four minutes before the end of the game, we'd played 666 minutes of PL football without scoring a single goal. Let Hell, Fire and Damnation fall upon RvN as a result!

19 defeats in the PL so far this season equates to exactly half a season without a single point.

The Forest v. Ipswich game last night saw both teams playing with fire in their bellies and both making every effort to win. Leicester City players - take note! If you're going down, go down fighting, instead of just thinking about that obscenely high paypacket you receive each month. The defeatist attitude of resignation to inevitable defeat every week can, at best, be a self-fulfilling prophecy, and at worst, be deemed by more cynical observers as almost tantamount to match-fixing.

Anyone watch the spectacular air display over this evening over Syston? A about 6 o'clock, thousands upon thousands of starlings flew silently overhead, producing some amazing formations, which went on for at least 20 minutes. The only downside was that my car need a wash as a result!

That was the most extraordinary exchange between presidents I've ever seen. Folk may applaud Zelensky for standing up to Trump and Vance, but at what cost? Ukraine desparately needs the Trump adminstration on board, but there's no chance of that now. It felt like a puppet show, with Putin pulling the strings. The only way Ukraine can survive is if Zelensky steps down immediately, and someone with more a realistic attitude to their existential threat takes over. If Zelensky thinks Europe alone can halt Russia, then he's relying on a unity of European NATO members which either doesn't exist or which could result in the war spreading across the whole of Western Europe. Do we really want Russian drones attacking Leicester because of Zelensky's spat with Trump yesterday? Remember the saying - don't bite the hand that feeds you? Maybe it's one that Zelensky forgot.

On a negative note, it's highly likely that we'll lose all 6 of the next 6 matches, meaning that by April 20, our fate will be sealed.

There once a bossman called van Nistroy, But our hopes for the Blues he did destroy. Six homes games in a row We lost something to zero. And the rest now is all just histroy!

Brian Cox, Gareth Malone, Brian May, James May and Andrew Wiles are just a few who spring to mind.

Call for change? I'd start by changing the name back to Leicester Fosse, but I doubt many on here would agree. Foxestalk would also need to be renamed Fossilstalk!

This is RvN explaining just how wide the gap is between his own management skills and those of every other manager in the PL.

Those stats don't, of course, include the 4-1 defeat at Brentford , when RvN was watching from the stands. If he goes now, those two painful Bee stings will seem like bookends!

Brentford's form in the PL had a big turn-around in the lead up to Christmas. Before that, their home form was excellent, but their away form was lousy. Since then, their home form has been lousy, but their away form has been excellent!

Greenland is more likely than Canada imo. Trump and Putin have probably come to an arrangement - you can have Ukraine and we'll have Greenland. And any Europeans who object can whistle.

Chamberlain talking peace with Hitler in 1938 didn't end well for Europe. Let's hope Trump talking peace with Putin in 2025 doesn't follow a similar pattern. Zelenskyy's solemn face yesterday made me realise what a pivotal year this could be for both Ukraine and Europe as a whole. Imo neither Trump nor Putin really cares about democracy or even NATO, they both just want to grab hold of Ukraine's large reserves of lithium, manganese, cobalt, nickel and titanium.

Well played Mark!

When RvN was appointed, we had 26 PL games left to play this season. We now have 13 left, so he's reached the half-way stage of that period. During his first 13 PL games, we gained just 7 points, although he wasn't in charge for the first of those 13 matches. If the current trend continues, we'll end up with a not-so-grand total of 24 points!
