Amarey!!! Bye bye Vesty.

Wanting to win and doing the right thing are 2 very different things. To some degree, I admire Tielemans for wanting that but what he ended up doing looked more desperate than anything else. It wasn't like they were executing a game plan to win, and in doing so the shape was all over the place, and our confidence had been shot by the equaliser anyway. This isn't Rodgers bottling, its management.

Youri is well suited to us 

 

I’m not sure he would fit many prem clubs because his speed over the first five yards is lacking 

 

Probably best to go abroad but he would earn more over here 

In interviews i have seen of him he comes across as a very smart, family orientated person.  He has 2 kids that he will want to ensure have the best education possible, and he will want to maximise his personal opportunities. I think he will have to go aboard to do that, and whatever he picks will also include his families needs. 

The part that niggles me is will he risk this all before the next World Cup? He is almost undroppable for Leicester, and a Yuri playing well for us gets into the Belgian squad for the next world cup (i presume anyway!). However, stepping up to top tier in Spain or Italy he moves into a realm where there will be more competition for his place and he risks not be getting the games he needs. He knows full well these moves don't always work out. 

But then im probably reading too much into it!

Ah ok. So handball is only deemed intentional if you make your body bigger? I thought it was just hands being in an unnatural position. Where he hands are are actually allowing him to control the ball and stop it bounding in the wrong direction.

Any other day of VAR being used in this situation would result in a handball decision and freekick to us.

I don't fully understand when VAR gets used or not at times like this. Remember in the Man U vs Aston Villa game Danny Ings had a goal disallowed by VAR and they seemed to look every incident leading up to the goal. Didn't someone say in this instance it wasn't looked at because the handball player wasn't the goal scorer? I have no idea! In that shot, hand in a completely unnatural position so not sure how it got through.

Appreciate is was a makeshift crappy Watford side, but he was pretty decent in that FA cup game. I think he is at his best when he can boss the game. He's not a grafter and yesterday it was a scrappy game in midfield. Not in his best form for sure but im finding all the 'just go' posts strange.

No. It wasn't that bad. Booking. 

Pretty shi**y dive beforehand as well. Don't think there would have been much to complain about if he did get red because of both.  Dirty POS all round.

Hard to take all that in. Thought the ref had a bit of a shocker and i don't get the added time at the end at all (edit - to be clear i mean the 2 additional on top of 95).  Seen plenty of games where the whistle blown straight away at kick off. But we should have managed that time away. They completely switched off at the end.

Youri had a stinker, but then i thought he was great against Watford. I think if the game doesn't suit him he switches off. Thought KDH was great, and wonderful to see JJ and thought he was ok until the end. Had 11 months out. He gets a pass in my opinion. 

Hmm Vesty. Been trying to give him benefit of the doubt but i just can't anymore.  He can have 5 yards on someone and you know he's going to get beat.

I’d be going batshit if I saw my team score two after 95 mins to win it also.

 

I hate their fan base but I can’t fault them that. I’m more angry at our own players after that.

 

we’ve had some very good performances tonight. Madders. Hamza. Justin. Daka. Albrighton. The rest were drivel and just stupid. Thomas gets a free pass also

KDH was drivel?

Soyuncu and Vestergaard, fvck me what a pairing.

The nervous energy it creates makes pushing forward so pleasurable. 

My son tested positive yesterday and we have tickets for the Brighton game too. Like you, don't hold out much hope about not testing positive sometime this week.

However, i believe the new isolation rule is for everyone. The only special rule for the vaxd is if you come into close contact with someone positive (which you have). In this circumstance, as long as you have a negative LFT each day you don't have to isolate. 

I'm going to be hopeful that me and the wife somehow avoid it this week

I’ve got and adult and child ticket in SK4 row C that I can’t use. Son has Covid and is isolating until the day after the match. £50.

As from tomorrow the isolation rules change. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/self-isolation-for-those-with-covid-19-can-end-after-five-full-days-following-two-negative-lfd-tests

So as long as the child has a negative test result by Thursday and then Friday you should be good to go. That's assuming of course the adults then doesnt test positive.

A complete pain. Was one of the boys Christmas presents and the rescheduled game is very likely going to be on a school night. Booked for the Watford game now. Looking forward to that being cancelled too.

What do we reckon? Behind closed doors?

 

I’ve gone through many hoops for this bloody match to add a bit of Christmas magic.

 

I lied to my kid to say it’s sold out when it’s far from it. Photoshopped his elf on a shelf around King Power Stadium in various poses. Printed the photos through PhotoBox to put inside a Christmas card I got from the FanStore. Asked for physical tickets through the club (which they sent to me believe it or not). Got an LCFC presentation box. Wrapped the buggers with blue tinsel and other Xmas tat. Then was going to give them as a surprise gift on Christmas Day as a little something to look forward to on NYD. 

 

Pissing Omicron.

Jeeze. We’ve just put the email confirmation in a Christmas card. 
 

We are such bad parents, and it’s likely to have no fans anyway 😂

Thanks! Think we will do it. Now i just hope that a Swan and Rushes fry up is still £2.50!

I would love some help please 

My 10 year old son has become a HUGE Leicester fan (partly influenced by me!). We live about 3 hours drive away so have never gone to the KP. We've been to the London Stadium a few times (saw LC 4-1 defeat there early in the season) so he's savvy about how people behave at matches.

I want to see if I can get tickets for 3 of us to the Norwich game on NYD. Happy for all of us to become members if it means we get more opportunities in the future as well. Tickets look sparse but can see plenty in M1 where i could get the 3 of us to sit together. However, I thought M1 was the away section? Would this be a particularly bad experience for us or has the whole area been released to home fans?
