Chelmofox

I doubt he is talking about a plan b as most on here think of it. Enzo likes to work on defined patterns of play and so i presume its largely getting these together to deal with different scenarios but still utilising the same base setup / philosophy.

Has he used Just for Men on that beard?

Cant play Doyle tomorrow anyway, but agree with this. Can't play JJ every game though, so Doyle comes into his own when teams dont have pacing wingers.

Oh behave. Vesty predictably struggled against the pace which made him look poor, but he wasn't an 'utter disaster'. The same player looked good against Bournemouth, which is the level we will be looking to compete at next year. To be fair, the current teams performance against Chelsea was better than Rodgers effort.

Donated! Fingers crossed you get everything you need.

Agree. Ground expansion and improve amenities brings in additional revenue. Training ground doesn't turn Soumare into Kante. In the long run, we hope that we can raise some future stars but these are very long term bets.

He's going to get that anyway.

Chelsea and Man U are kindly obliging right now.

Players usually want to play for their country, and its ads credibility when putting themselves in the shop window.

In every way it mirrors global economies. The need for perpetual growth, for the already wealthy to get their cut of the gold, and for that gold to keep increasing in value is the foundation of our economic model. Just existing in a good state isn't enough. What gets me is how both sport (well boxing and football) and big business have got to the same point. We basically ran out of the money that can provide continuous and aggressive growth, so we borrow from the magic money tree. Go back a few years we were happy to take Russian and US money to prop up commercial property investments in the city (and a few football clubs too), and this has now migrated over to the richest from the middle east (and the few crazy rich from the US). To succeed now, we have to cosy up to some of the most morally bankrupt and richest regimes on the planet. The lines between business and state are completely blurred (and i include KP in that due to their monopoly). But for both sport and the commercial world, is there anywhere else left to exploit? Have we finally hit the richest people we can reach? Whats in it for the richest to buy everything up as the whole thing can't continuously grow? This is where franchise models come in to play im afraid. To your point, football has eaten itself (as, has arguably western economics). In the business world, if there is noone willing to buy your assets then you implode in on yourself, like we have seen many business do over the years. The whole sport is surviving on band aids at the moment, but when even 2nd and 3rd tier clubs can barely afford to pay their players inflated wages, there is only one end game for them im afraid. One way or another my son won't be watching Leicester City as they are today in 20 years. He'll probably be watching some sort of East Midlands franchise battling out a few short tournaments a year whilst the big few clubs battle out their super leagues.

The player is out of contract in 9 games. Its up to him if he plays or not.

I suppose the case will be that we had planned the sales of Fofana and Madders at the end of the season (before the cut off). The Fofana situation with Chelsea meant the squad was weakend and we may have felt we could have got more for him at the end of the season (although he got injured for Chelsea!) and getting relegated meant we were low balled for Madders. Fact that only one summer signing (quick purchase to replace Fofana) should work in our favour but then we have those signings in the January window. But, that all falls apart if there is a significant breach projected even if we had stayed up. Madders only had 1 year left on his deal so was never going for 70-80 mil. There would have to be a plan that showed that we were much closer if we had stayed up. Who knows. No matter what it feels a little bleak without the actual information.

Doyle is just a loan deal. Nothing published in the agreement about an obligation. Not sure i would want him permanently anyway. We might not chose to even want Yunus as well.

I like him, but his head has been all over the place lately. I do feel like i need to put a 'flappy arms' montage together for him at the end of the season.

Faes was at no fault for the goal and made a decent block just before. If i recall, Castagne was pretty lame for the equaliser. What i did like though was Faes doing his 'flappy arms' thing when the equaliser went in. He's worked hard at that and nails it every time. Hated watching the game yesterday. 2 goals from Youri and a game that contained Castagne, Madders and Faes really set off my 'how the fek did we get relegated' OCD.

I worked for a company in shared office space, and management found out that one of the kitchens contained free booze. As a 'treat' for a record month we were escorted down to the kitchen and we all rinsed the few bottles of wine and crap beer that was there. They knew how to make us feel special.

Just Marketing BS. There is no difference between KP ownership or any other multi billion $ business. When everything goes well we live in this Symbiotic relationship where we can brush that to one side. Right now, the dysfunctional side of KP ownership is very, very grating.

This gets banded around a lot nowdays. How many multi billionaire owners have purchased clubs for the love of football? The vast majority now do it for profit, exposure of their own brand or in a 'certain regions' case, sports washing.

Wonder when they first had that objective if they predicted the transfer and wage inflation....... In hindsight, feels very naive to me.

I agree, but also their offering is no longer fit for purpose. I have no interest watching Man City or Arsenal play on TV every week. I mainly want to watch the club i support, especially for those games i can't go to. Life is busy, and i would like to watch other games that interest me, rather than the overblown 'blockbuster' that Sky think i should be watching. Advertising hoardings for Man City home games make me feel ill anyway. It's insane that in 2024 i cannot legitimately watch my club play away. I loved the way it worked for the games broadcast on Amazon. Each game broadcast and a separate show that pulls everything together. That should be the standard set, but i presume the big boys don't like the fact they don't get special treatment. Highlights packages are a problem as well. Too much focus on the big 6 and not enough variety. I actually prefer extended highlights packages on Youtube but wish there was something better that pulled everything together. I hate having to sit through the inevitable 'big 6' focus on Match of the Day.

I hope the KC is already informed enough so he doesn't need to build his case from Twitter threads.

And in fairness, isn't this one of the core reasons why PSR and FFP exists. It's all fine when the owners are happy to make loan payments across all this debt, but if the ownership decides they want out or goes rogue, all risk is still underwritten against the club?

Just moved house. Body aches like a f4cker. Most of our stuff doesn’t work in the new house. log on to foxes talk. For f4cks sake.

If any of you have an Amazon Echo or equivalent ask: Alexa, tell us something rude about Leicester City Even Amazon mocks the clappers.

But won't. PL would sh1t the bed if those 2 weren't a prominent part of the product.
