Might have been covered already, the powers that be either still think we’re a premier league club (likely) or they don’t know how to drive demand/footfall. Checked a few other League 1 clubs most are £55 for their new shirt, we’re £70. Thats over 25% more than most. Glad to see the club still treating the Leicester faithful with the utmost respect as always.

England vs Argentina - Weds 15th July - 20.00 (BST)
The boy Linacre replied to StanSP's topic in World Cup 2026
Think we'll nick it, really do. They Aren't the Argentina of 4 years ago. Messi is a passenger, many of the others are 4 years older and not better, They struggled against Cape Verde, possibly should have lost to Egypt, took 120 mins to beat 10 man Switzerland, they are on a par with us. this game is TOTALLY winnable IF we play fairly well or dog it out again. Our 1st team match up man for man against theirs, I mean cmon they have Romero at the back and Martinez. We concede and win in my mind BBC thoughts on the Swiss game: Argentina analysis: Firepower tells despite another underwhelming showing For the third successive match, Argentina earned a chaotic win with an underwhelming performance despite starting the match as clear favourites. -
Yeah was BDCR allowed to play after getting sent off at Birmingham away in Feb?? And he didn’t even rake the back of somebody’s calf!!

Fery still there & won’t play a seed in rd3

When Boris campaigned on the NHS's £350m per week saving (are we making it yet?) did he say this would also be a result of Brexit? "Immigration officers have told the BBC that since the UK left the European Union, it has become more difficult to check criminal records from some other countries." including next door neighbours like France Wonder how Nigel and the Reform team will back up their plans with this issue when they win the next General Election?

Senegal coach looks like he’s off to Wimbledon

One thing of interest, should Norway beat the Ivory Coast tonight, they are the ONLY country with a winning record (including a world cup finals match) against Brazil. In fact after 4 games they have NEVER been beaten by Brazil. Who do the winners of that L32 match tonight play on Sunday at 9pm in New York???

Boulter's loss was her in a nutshell. I think she has had a good career, career high of 23, 5 WTA titles including 2 500's but can't keep that level up for a decent period of time and has always struggled at Wimbledon, got to the 3rd round at Wimbledon but then blew it against Harriet Dart (who is generally crap). But today's match summed it up, misfiring up and down serve, shots high wide and not handsome, the game was heavily influenced and decided by her unforced errors and misfiring serve. 8 double faults, less winners and more unforced errors, opportunity missed again, as she has had a better season and a good Queens. Bouzkova (21) next, winnable, but sadly not for Leicester's finest.

Just catching up on World Cup no spoilers Sunday night, what a game between Austria & Algeria, so please for 2 goal Mahrez

I would suggest Raducanu burnt a lot of her good faith by sacking the GS winning coach straight afterwards, but because she has been in the public eye so much as a slam winner, the revolving door of coaches has again dented the copybook, then a number of the injuries have been judged as questionable, but a stress fracture after playing so well at Queens, which could have given her something to build on and missing Wimbledon when she was in a good place, is a shame. And seeded meant that she had a good chance of getting to at least round 3, which would have really improved her ranking, I saw a few of her matches at Queens this year and she had some good results and performances. The Draper injury is really worrying, again after a decent Eastbourne, would really have wanted to play Wimbledon, same injury as his previous long term issue, could be a career issue, which would be sad, he has a long way back now from his current ranking. You can't replicate that home support, they must have been desperate to play, especially after missing so much of the last year for the pair of them. Kartal, last years success is indeed injured. She was 44 this time LY, she is now 120, Raducanu is now outside the worlds top 32 and Draper is down to 141. Sad times for Britain's Tennis best. Probably Boulter last hope for a run.

I have a mate from Leicester who moved to Canada in the late 90s, became a citizen, then moved to LA and was at the game, well chuffed for them & him. Not a great game or good side though 😂

Luckily came down to Devon last friday, max of 23 today, temperate I would say....

Group C: Brazil, Morocco, Haiti, Scotland
The boy Linacre replied to davieG's topic in World Cup 2026
Scotlands defending is shocking, reminiscent of Leicester. They are in trouble here!!! -
Monga & Nelson go coz we got relegated, makes Seagrave pointless, because of our league position. Abdul won’t stay either. I mean the destruction of the club gets worse & worse as times goes on. SO depressing & disengaging, our own owners & board are literally taking our future away from the club & couldnt see it in the middle & towards the end of last season.
-
We’ve been home & away a fair bit last 7-8 years. I’ve got a mate we met in the pub b4 the game as has been a STH a long time. He said the Football ruins the day out. So the local pubs should do a roaring trade 3pm Saturdays next season 😂😂🍺🦊

Met a lad in London today I used to work with. Wet Spam season ticket holder, 15-20% reduction for going down I was told. Whats the club offering for 2 relegations then?

Russell Martin - Confirmed as First Team Manager
The boy Linacre replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
Pretty deflated, reinforces disengagement with the club. The guy has one season, he HAS to take us up, our League 1 visit should be as temporary as last time. I don’t want him fired at the end of the season, as he will have been successful in returning us closer to where we should be. -
Europa Conference League 25/26
The boy Linacre replied to StanSP's topic in General Football and Sport
Well done Palace Think it’s great for these sort of sides AND they get to play on Thursdays next year, Martin Samuel in the ST said they’d win in Aug. Great greedy shout by Marinakis. Enjoy your Thursdays off. How did Parish let Glasner go, that might be it already. -
Both Boulter & Radacanu need a productive next month, good number of wins & ranking points
-
Well Done Villa
-
Doesn't it also mean Bournemouth or Brighton will be in the Champions League next season? I really hope its stuff like this that hurts Top & Rudders and then Palace win the ECL, 3 teams not even with the heritage we have. One Trophy between them!!!
-
Times are hard at Freiburg Their manager looks a right scruffbag
-
Didn’t Villa go down the season we won the title? We just keep being reminded of how quickly & far we have fallen, sad. Some of us were in Rome etc. only 4 years ago

Chelsea got lucky to win both trophies they did under him. Unless you're very unlucky, making a Semi in the Conference League is an English club requisite, Wet Spam, Lestah, Villa, Chelsea, Palace, all last 4 at least As for the World Club Cup, many that could did not play and PSG MUST have been knackered by the final. Course you need some skill which they had BUT they also had plenty of luck. ALSO Bernardo, Stones, possibly Ake, and others might leave. I think the jury is very much out on him at the highest level. Arsenal have got rid of the bottlers tag, Liverpool might recover, there's plenty there. Its going to be competitive next season, Manure might compete somewhat. Lets see what you've got in the real glare Enzo......If he can get close, I take my hat off...BUT not certain
