  1. Im not saying vardy doesnt put himself about or can't pass, he just doesnt, in my opinion, have that cutting edge that he used to have, that the opposition couldn't deal with. These days he is just making up the numbers i am sorry to say. Sure, he will pop up with the odd goal here and there, but he used to be so much more of a threat.
  2. I cant believe after losing 9 out of the last 10 we are still within touching distance of 17th....assuming wolves dont get anything tomorrow, which logic says they shouldn't
  3. Ive just booked my flights and hotel for djurgarden v aik. Pinning my hopes on this djurgarden employee coming good now. Fingers crossed. I just watched the end of a swedish cup game involving hammarby against a team i havent heard of and despite one end being empty the atmosphere still sounded fantastic. Enjoy
  4. Indeed he didnt 😂. He was still one of our positives.....at least better than the alternatives anyway which isnt really saying a lot. Ive been resisting calling for vardy to be dropped for daka (to say im not a daka fan is an understatement) but hes a spent force these days. Hes been phenomenal over the years but you cant beat father time . it reminds me of a once great boxer going through the motions and getting beaten up. You dont want to see them in the ring again ruining their legacy.
  5. Fair play. Anyone who gets off their arse and does something about something they care about rather than just whining about it, deserves respect .
  6. To be honest, if we dont sell out and he isn't denying a city fan a ticket, im not that arsed if he gets one or not. The hooligan days of "infiltrating/taking the home end" are long gone. A solitary away fan wont change that. But i dont get it really, ive been an away fan in the home end (at cov and villa of all places) and its not much fun. Can't cheer a goal or sing with your fellow city fans, just sit on your hands basically. But the fact is that youd be daft to risk your own membership or ST buying a ticket for a stranger on the Internet.
  7. Im guessing you aren't all that familiar with this site. I also see the advice you have been given isn't particularly helpful. What they should have said, which wouldn't have hurt or taken very long is, this should be in the ticket thread for chelsea away march 9th which can be found in this section, probably below. Good luck although if it were me, i wouldnt get my hopes up. I dont think i would buy a ticket for somebody i didn't know and risk a ban if they misbehave or get found out
  8. Agree. Wont listen to the b0llocks. Jermaine defoe currently on mute waiting for 2nd half . Goes off the second the final whistle blows. One game at a time, obviously yeah we can obviously concentrate on the league, er yeah, obviously its a team game, there are positives we can take blah blah and repeat .....yawn
  9. Brian Little should never have got the grief he did when he left. We were awful for a long period before he came in with 10,000 at filbert street and flirting with relegation from division 2.. He changed us, gave us a few wembley appearances and ultimately got us into the premier league . Very influential character in our history if you ask me.
  10. Ive read these threads from afar lately, rather than commenting before now It was good whilst it lasted. The impression i get, although chip in if you disagree, is that it is largely the younger elements of fans on here that are angry and feel we should be challenging for honours. Lets say these fans are 25/26 now, if they started going at say 13 in 2012 they would have seen the most successful period in our history- winning the championship, great escape, winning the prem, champions league , established top half team, brink of top 4 twice, fa cup. For them it is the norm and they are angry it has gone to sh*t. For the older fans, at least my mates ive been going with since 1990, we saw it for what it was, a glorious period in which we over achieved massively due to excellent management, recruitment and a bit of luck. It was fantastic but not a true indication of our status in football which essentially has always been a yo-yo club. People point at Brighton , brentford, forest this year, villa getting champions league football. Their success is temporary and will be for any number of clubs that have short periods of success. Its great at the time but unless you have unlimited funds like man city, Liverpool, chelsea, arsenal it just isnt sustainable over a long period of time. Im no happy clapper, i let the players have it if there is a lack of effort or they fall short. Same with the board and whilst i agree it is time for KP to **** off, for me it isnt so much about the fact we aren't a top prem side any more, it is more about the lack of care for what supporters want...expanded singing section, standing, reasonable ticket prices, general sale etc . Whilst sport is about ambition and trying to go as far as you can, my best most enjoyable days as a fan were largely in the lower divisions. Winning the championship was fun. Playoffs were exciting, visiting grotty Northern towns was an adventure. The premier league shows the worst of football and the greed that goes with it. It isnt the end of the world if we aren't part of it.
  11. And if you want to make a proper day of it, a walk round the back of the station where for a small fee there are a number of substance dependent ladies willing to make your day complete .😂
  12. Get north Norfolk digital mid morning matters on the radio. What's the matter with you 😂
  13. You dont surprise me with the club car park . I have a little spot i use to park and get away reasonably quickly which i won't disclose on here or it wont be my spot next game 😂 Fair play on the distance you travel 👍.
  14. Same goes for the duh duh der duh on radio leicester after a goal. Dont ever change it!!!!
  15. Damn sight easier to get Sunderland away tickets in midweek than those chelsea ones eh? 😂
  16. Doubtful. Last Season in the cup there was a 6k allocation and there were only a handful left at members stage which we had a mad scramble for and sold out in a matter of minutes if memory serves .
  17. I come from rugby. M1, fosse park, Middleton st then Aylestone Road . Its strange that its often quicker than when i lived in Thurmaston and got the bus into town then walked to the ground
  18. Thanks. Ive had a stroke of fortune regarding this. I made contact with djurgardens initially as a general enquiry and an employee there has contacted me privately. He is a member but can't make the derby with aik on 4th may. He has offered to buy 2 tickets for me on his membership for this one which im delighted about. I have offered to return the favour with city tickets if he ever visits the uk. I suppose he could let me down but my gut tells me i won't get a better offer.
  19. Yeah obviously. Why do cocks like you make statements like that and talk to people like you do. Well done. Hat and badge for you. You sing. Mods ban me if you like. Couldnt give a fck. This app brings out the worst in people, myself included.
  20. Personally i find the problem is sitting in a ground with loads of empty seats is sh*t. It takes away from the atmosphere which is already struggling.
  21. They wont give a fck. Like most "influencers", youtube channels and the like, they post for likes, attention and subscribers......... Please like this post
  22. Im a bit lost in truth Not ashamed to say I don't really have much interest in the financial side of things and in all honesty I dont really know enough about it or understand it (which is self inflicted really as im not inclined to research it). I thought it was done with and we had "got out of it" with nick di Marco and that was that. What was the point of that if a deduction is still possible? I need an explanation aimed at a 6 year old 🤣
  23. And if any of you can play football, see mr nistelrooy
  24. The white dog shit is bearable. Very chalky texture. You could flick it at your mates without making a mess of your shoes!! As for the footy .......cant bear to want f*rest to win but a necessary evil for us
