  1. Club should sue him for defamation. Just making things up. Problem is other teams fans will take it as truth.
  2. Looking for 1 ticket. Can meet in London/Brentford. Please just give me a shout!
  3. Got 2 spare tickets tomorrow, both people dropping out this morning because of illness. One adult ticket, and one over 65. Can meet outside the stadium.
  4. Does anyone have a copy of this they can send over? Want to give it another watch. I did have it on a hard drive, but plugged it in recently and doesn't seem to be working. Need to get it fixed somewhere.
  5. Saying it now, we had Bocelli in 2016. But on Saturday, post horn gallop, players come out and Jersey Budd in the centre circle, just a guitar, live performance of When You're Smiling!
  6. Would like Summerville, but if Leeds don't go up I think some big Prem clubs will come after him. I think we would be priced out of the deal.
  7. Getting this banner made up for Watford. Does anyone know how I can make sure some jobsworth steward doesn't take it down?
  8. I know for a fact that it was Jesse Marsch's fault for this falling through. Last minute rang Leicester and called it off, he had changed his mind. Jack and Brendan weren't happy at all, he wanted to move in the end.
  9. Well, you should know more than anyone else, what does Pep say in his book about plans? "If Plan A doesn't work, you keep trying till you make Plan A work. There isn't a plan B or C" (this is not a direct quote) Enzo is straight out of the school of Pep, he's done pretty well in management, hasn't he?!
  10. Been a season ticket holder in the KOP for 15 years, wasn't able to go last night tho because away with work. However, when I saw the comments I knew exactly what it was about, and all around where I sit we have these moaners. I don't understand when Enzo has said multiple times this is how we are going to play, enjoy it or leave. This is modern football, this is how you control games, this is how you break an opponent down. We all know our two CBs don't have much pace, so would never make sense to lump it long, and then they have the chance to do us on the counter. You don't hear it that much at away matches tho. There seriously needs something to be done about the atmosphere in general at the KP. But when I turned it on last night (don't ask me how I can watch it), I was not surprised about the empty seats, crap atmosphere. There were a lot of other factors that affected last night: Third home game in a row Shit opposition Late kickoff, and cold/crap weather at the moment. It's late Jan, and everyone is fed up and skint. I can guarantee it gets to springtime, we are nearly promoted or even about to win the league. The stadium will be full, the atmosphere will be good, and you won't hear of these moaners. There were a lot of other circumstances around last night, not just the style of play. We all know we shouldn't be in this league, and the quicker we bounce back the better. If we were playing even Palace last night, the stadium would have been a lot better. We are entitled, and I can understand when people say they just can't get up for these types of games, yes it's Swansea at home, Tuesday night in the cold. 2 years ago I was in Eindhoven town centre in the baking sun, loving life. We take our medicine this season, we support Enzo and the team because it's all about building again for next season.
  11. Sat in the KOP in my season ticket for over 10 years now. Went on Saturday as well in our usual seats, and didn't recognise anyone around us. I honestly have got to say that the atmosphere was far better, with a lot of people singing, clapping, and getting involved. Now I would never speak badly of the people usually around us in their season tickets, because they have been going through the thick and thin to games, home and away. But I do think something needs to be done more to encourage fans to create that atmosphere we had on Saturday.
  12. Was this any kind of nod to Hertha Berlin? Just that flag in the middle is very Hertha. Obviously wouldn't want to cause any friction between Bochum and Leicester.
  13. The £105m net loss threshold is changing this summer. The PL recognised it hadn't been adjusted for inflation, and general running costs going up. So the system is changing at the end of this season.
  14. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/l0056hjd/monday-night-club-15012024 Starting listening from 19:21. I heard this on Monday Night Live and had to go back and listen to it again. Rory Smith puts this all perfectly, and I think every Everton and Forest fan should hear/be explained this. This is what has been pissing me off about all these protests Everton has done over the last few months, it's not the Premier League's fault, you broke their rules! Should be mad at the people who have broken them. Unfortunately, I think Forest will join in and they will carry on. Marinakis is currently being investigated for match-fixing in Greece, and if you know anything about the Greek league he won't be done for it because Olympiacos are like Real Madrid, the capital/government team. I know the argument is always what about Man City, but the investigation is still going on, and it's over 10 years, just have to wait. If they get off scot-free, then fair play you protest saying the PL is corrupt, but over these rule-breaking issues, you can't.
  15. I can't believe this. For a long time, I've been thinking how they could bring in safe standing at the KP. Personally, I would want the whole of the KOP to be it, however, we all know with certain fans and the clubs ongoing attitude on these issues it just wouldn't happen. Then I was thinking could you not split it in half, so the top half is safe standing, and the bottom half seating best of both worlds for the fans? Lo and behold it looks like Southampton is doing just that. As the KP is a carbon copy of St Marys if this is successful there will be little evidence for the club to show that it wouldn't be good for us, and everyone advocating for it has hard proof of it being successful. See this all being good news for Leicester!
  16. A few things off the back of Saturday and the conversation had on this group: These types of games (putting the recent Forest away matches into this) attract a certain type of fan which you don't seem to see at every other away game. From the outside you would say they are not one bit interested in football, spending most of the match just goading, shouting at the home fans calling them every name under the sun. It doesn't help the atmosphere. Start of the game the Covs fans were good. And after speaking to one of their fans on the train back, they were worried in 2nd half that they weren't going to score, why they were so quiet. But after the 1st, and especially the 2nd goal it was very loud, not heard that in a few years, except from some European away days. Moving Union FS to L1 or the family section is completely redundant of what trying to change in the stadium. Trying to make the whole stadium loud needs these different groups in different areas, L1 needs to do there thing with the away fans, and Union FS needs to generate the atmosphere in the KOP end. Look at Cov on Saturday, didn't hear one song from behind the goal in the far end, mean't was just those guys next to the away end. Whenever this argument is brought up just always think of Palace, the Fanatics are just behind that goal and have created a very strong end. That's what we need.
  17. After finishing James Montague's book "1312," which I would highly recommend to every football fan, I find myself increasingly disheartened by the English matchday experience. Over the years, it's been diluted and stripped of its unique character by the league and even, arguably, the government. It's grown dull and unexciting. Essentially, we're now mere paying customers, unwelcome to cause any disturbance or voice any dissent. The setup caters more to viewers watching at home worldwide. What we feared ages ago—that it might mimic major American sports—has sadly come true. Yet, many fans, especially in the Premier League, seem oblivious. People often mock the atmosphere at US soccer games and the imitation of Ultras, but after reading the chapter on them and watching YouTube clips of LAFC matches, it's hard to argue. Their atmospheres might, arguably, surpass those in England. Now the solution to this I have no idea, I don't see how it can be reversed with more money coming, and I'm not advocating for the return of fan violence, which is abhorrent. However, supporters must initiate change in this experience because it's bound to deteriorate further. Anyway, rant over.
  18. About 20 of us in the block I was in at Millwall were trying to get this going. Far better than that crap old one we have used for so many players now. Get this going and could be like the Saliba one for Arsenal fans.
  19. I know, I know, when this video came out it went viral and everyone was laughing at us. However since then, pretty much once a week I have this tune in my head. If we could make a song from this tune would be so good!
  20. I keep hearing/seeing a lot of fans say we have a lot of depth in the squad, which I'm not so sure about. I personally think we need to sign 3/4 new players in Jan, left sided defender, forward/striker, and biggest hole for me is in CM. We only have Winks, no one else can play like him/in that role, as we have seen over the last couple of weeks. Also losing 4 players to AFCON. All 4 players in our matchday squad, maybe except from Daka, are quite crucial to how we play. I just think we are pretty light, maybe not for the Championship (as all other fans will say) but need to start thinking about next year. And for gods sake please sell at least 2 keepers, that is a joke how many we have!
  21. Randers and Rennes I just took his passport, no one battered an eye lid. But saw something on twitter a few days ago about people changing the names on there vouchers to friends ones before they go. So was thinking of doing the same.
  22. Does anyone know how you change the name on a European ticket? Is it just a matter of ringing up the club. I share my season ticket with my brother, got a ticket for Eindhoven, he can't go because of work. I can just bring his passport with me, but would prefer to not.
