Collymore

Yeah we did but it was an odd game when things seemed to turn at the end of the game atmosphere wise - quite understandably as the club was toxic and the players deserved bashings. I think it was the following game where all hell broke loose and people were ejected with whatever went on. He still is asking to go in there next season as "it's more interesting than the family stand" 🤣

Offering Ayew a new contract actually wouldn't surprise me. It's straight out of the Rudkin playbook.

Got through first verse of MC Hammer 'Can't Touch This' linked to an Andy Hughes set piece coaching session but then gave up!

Can't believe there's talk about the use of nuclear weapons on here! Posters casually talking about their deployment like it would even be an option! That's crazy stuff Foxestalk!

Have we ever got to a Luke Thomas throw first? I'm not even being over dramatic, I literally can't remember us getting a head on one first - we must have!?!

He's becoming as unlikeable as all the rest quickly. Can almost hear his post match interview in my head now...

Huge face of one of the worst offenders of causing toxicity. The club are on the windup!

Or maybe we can soak up a few seasons in L1 - who knows? There's never been a club that's gone down with this wage bill though and with the global economy (I'm hearing a shortage in jet fuel soon!) that could be the straw that breaks KP?

I don't think the end like Bury, but maybe a Rangers style rebirth which would be very very weird still.

Did @Ric Flair ask Vardy to come on the pod in the future? I'd imagine after he's retired he'd be the type to happily spill the beans on Rudkin... Susan Whelan would also be a great guest but I'd imagine she'd be far to professional to do the dirty on Jon.

Steven Hawking would bag 5 or 6 a season in a Celtic team upfront. Some Middlesbrough fans at work were livid with him, I know that much! I think he is an example of someone who really was on a downward trajectory.

Just dawned on me that if we don't win today it could be the end of Leicester City FC. We go on about big games but this really is!

See my post above. He's not cursed, he'd fit into that Spurs culture just fine!

We tried to become a top 6 club with a football league mentality. It wasn't just the fact rudders changed our approach to the transfer market and started buying like the big boys on talentless crap that thought they'd made it, it was the fact we have and always have had very low standards and a rotten culture. It's always been the same - when you listen to the pods of players of the past many stories are based around alcohol and misadventures that we all laugh about but that lack of professionalism has always been at our club. It's not just the club - it's the fans too that have this mindset. The amount of times on here you see members posting "they're entitled to let their hair down" "do you not have a break in your job?" Madders a great example. He was trying to get into the England squad and it was a time when we were trying to make that transition to top 6 and I remember posting on here at the time how unprofessional it was he was being here there and everywhere gallivanting around the world - Dubai...next week the darts etc....dragging others like Barnes with him too.. Do you see Barnes now at Newcastle gallivanting about? No - I'd imagine Newcastle wouldn't stand for it. The top players at top clubs don't have these podcast stories. They hold each other to account and the pressure of representing and being successful for their club is a driver that brings that success. This can only change now with a change from the top, but maybe we just have to accept we'll always be Leicester City that will make it on the back page of the Sun!

A player caught drink driving and breaking the law attending lockdown parties (who's not even that good) then given the captaincy as a reward! Sums it all up really.

Just done the maths. We've lined his pockets by £20m over his Leicester career and he's likely to walk away for free at the end of the season. Some obscene 10 goal haul to keep us up in the remaining games might just make that easier to comprehend but £20m and to think of what he's returned - mind boggling!

Playing youth is one thing but cultivating an environment where they can thrive so it's in the DNA of the club is another. Too many managers it seems think it's a simple as throwing youth into the side and that's it, job done, they're only ticking the box and appeasing the fans short term. Last manager where you felt there was some sort of plan was perhaps Puel. Everyone else since has either been sidetracked by pressure of results or just wouldn't have a clue on how to cultivate that environment. Sadly Rowett seems to fall under the latter.

Looking for an adult ticket and an U17 ticket but would take two adult tickets. Thanks!

Inch? We're literally talking a blade of grass which is millimetres! Yes it's mad to think our very existence as a football club could come down to that measurement!

Great banter!

I've got the transcript for Hughes first team talk "Boy's - we're all in this together and we and live and die on that pitch.... but if one of you ...ANYONE! tries to get first to a Thomas long throw you'll be pulled next stop in play."

Rudders?

Worst players on the pitch today both goal keepers and both Leicester coached! We should just keep churning out keepers to whatever division we're in and play Vietes!

Think there must be something contractual where if he plays it'll end up costing us something... Whether that's some detail on his contract or a registration issue I'm not sure. Just a hunch.
