Oliver Skipp Confirmed
Filbert Fireworks replied to DJ Barry Hammond's topic in Leicester City Forum
Probably the only way we can strengthen this defence. -
Oliver Skipp Confirmed
Filbert Fireworks replied to DJ Barry Hammond's topic in Leicester City Forum
Will be winks and skipp again then rowett will figure it doesn't work as did the manager before him. Needs to be JJ and skippy. Winks to Come on when JJ gets tired or we want to see the game out. -
Too early to say 2 games in. We do look organised and there is some work ethic but we see this every new manager whilst the players pick up for a little bit to earn there place. Then after 5games the effort drops and we never to seem to recover. We are where we are. Rowett is the least of our issues to be honest. Heard he's already made comments about prima Donnas walking around in sliders at the training ground.

Realistic Managerial Replacements
Filbert Fireworks replied to winteriscoming's topic in Leicester City Forum
I want to cry. When the Bodgers debacle was unfolding it was genuinely realistic that we could have approached Unai Emery at the time. Now I'd be genuinely pleased with Dyche. Three years ago would have laughed at the suggestion as Dyche as completely regressive. King Power out. All gone to pot since the Chairman died and his club appointments and structure has slowly eroded. -
LCFC 3-4 Southampton, post-match thread
Filbert Fireworks replied to Phil Mitchell's topic in Leicester City Forum
If that's true we are absolutely free falling into League 1. I can't see very well after stabbing myself in the eyes with a fork watching RVN set records for defeats with an equally record setting unchanged team. But that tonight....Well I didnt think I would see worse but it's happened. Bring back Marti we were lacklustre, slow and pathetic but just a bad championship team not a rock bottom one. -
LCFC 3-4 Southampton, post-match thread
Filbert Fireworks replied to Phil Mitchell's topic in Leicester City Forum
Well that was humiliating. -
Think a good team is more than the sum of its parts. Sometimes less technically gifted players just gel and what they produce together is greater than that of just fielding the technically most gifted 11. Thats where we sit with Winks. He's our most technically gifted player but for whatever reason his psychological attitude and persona is at present dragging the team down. We saw this before he was dropped. This year is a different time and context to the promotion under Maresca. It isn't personal or a determination that he shouldn't play. Just that he so evidently doesn't want to be here he's dragging the team down. It's obviously corrosive in the dressing room. What message does it give to the more junior players that a senior like winks wants out. I'm in the drop him camp.

Joe Aribo joins on loan - Official
Filbert Fireworks replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
Just sacked yet another manager whose hands were tied. Clubs in free fall. Half the squad wants out. Massive rebuild needed. Need a striker........ Welcome Joe Aribo. You just couldn't make it up. Roll up roll up leicester fans for the next humiliation. -
He's 100% not coming the rumour is hilarious and people turning him down is even more hilarious.

I know he can't score but Daka doesn't slow the attack like Ayew and works better off the ball. I don't get this Ayew fetish. Bring Ayew on when if we actually score.

Marti Cifuentes sacked - Official
Filbert Fireworks replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
What a dire situation. Not really sure what the club want. We sold some of our best players. Managed a couple of loanees in. One was crocked early on. The other our best player and now also crocked. The third sent back for being rubbish. No Ndidi, Hermansen, Vardy or KDH. Marti was an ugly watch but is our team anything other than mid table championship? Look at our starting 11 it's hideous whichever group of deplorables you swap in especially at left back. If the board think we should be aiming for autopromotion with this car crash of a squad they are delusional. Next manager it will be the same rinse and repeat. Owners the problem. Find it all a bit bizzare really. Is that 4 managers in 2 seasons. What a joke of a club. -

Leicester 2-1 Derby - Post Match
Filbert Fireworks replied to Daggers's topic in Leicester City Forum
12/24 half-way through the season. Epitomy of a mid table championship club. Lets be honest would we really want to go straight back up with this squad? Rebuilds going to take several transfer windows. -
Definite candidate for worst ever signing. We've had some poor players that were punts and didn't work out. This one we played Stella money for in the hope of European football and can't cut it in the championship. Over 100 appearance shows the staggering level of incompetence at the club. Nothing personal just objective observation of footballing ability.
-
We're not signing anybody in January. Only managed 3 loans in the summer window. Not sure the financial situation is going to be resolved. Will be 1 in 1 out if we are lucky and nobody wants our dross.
-
It's like a social experiment to see how much shame a group of fans can take before they crack completely. Had more enthusiasm for a funeral.

Would you want us to be relegated to L1?
Filbert Fireworks replied to Collymore's topic in Leicester City Forum
No definately wouldn't want to see us L1. Understand the sentiment about wanting a reset. Think best we stay in the championship and rebuild the squad over 3-4 transfer windows. It's going to take at least that long anyway for the dross to be out of contract. I actually think Marti would be good for that he seems to have an eye for a player the same way Puel did but actually managing the team seems a bit much for him in the same way it was for Puel. An old school manager with a Puel type director of football would be good at this point. -
Passed out with shock at the point when he didn't trip over the ball so missed the goal. Checked several times as thought everyone was on the wind up but it's appears to be factually correct he scored. As he's a striker that plays for us and actually manged to strike the ball into the oppositions net he has to be our nailed on No.9 next match.

Stoke Match Thread 22/11/25 Home.
Filbert Fireworks replied to davieG's topic in Leicester City Forum
Don't get JJ not in the pivot. Reid in for skipp. Must be tired from internationals -
He's average at everything apart from actually shooting which he is just atrocious at. He does work hard though which is slightly endearing at the moment. A goal would do him so much good. Given the two other options just start him for a good run of games and see if he can get some confidence.
-
Yeah it would be good to see. I completely get the idea of having a strong bench so as long as we do see Mavs and Monga come into against tired legs but with plenty of time left in the game say at 55-60mins then I can be on board. If its James or Fatawu off though or something else conservative then I'm absolutely out and monga and Mavs should be starting from the off.
-
It would be absolutely hilarious if Skippy disposes someone passes to Luke Thomas who bombs down the wing and one of his crosses actually works and Carranza bicycle kicks it top Bins. This forum would literally disintegrate

Julián Carranza joins on loan - Official
Filbert Fireworks replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
Have to agree AA was a painful watch but your right he was strong and made the right runs. Watching Carranza gives me a migraine. -
Yes I agree, the point I was making is that we just don't have that quality in the squad available . Marti has dropped players but the players he has to then bring in are also rubbish. Switch to a back 3 still have to play bad players. Stack the midfield with 5 men. Still bringing in dross. Keep the same system still have to replace Thomas with VK. People keep saying this but what is this magical lineup and system? Would absolutely love to see it.
