  1. The internet is accessible for us all my friend!

  3. Respectfully, do you not think that would be too late? Have you not seen enough regression and failure over the past 4 years?
  4. I can understand your sentiment but I believe it's mistaken. We aren't of a comparable size to Norwich: Premier Leagues 1 - 0 FA Cups 1 - 0 League Cups 3 - 2 Major honours 7 - 2 Seasons in top tier 57 - 27 Seasons in third tier 1 - 29 ~47% of our history we've been in the top tier ~28% of their history they've been in the top tier 7 consecutive league home defeats, but they also scored 5 goals in those games, and picked up 9 points on the road 9 consecutive league home defeats, we scored 0 goals in those games, and in that time picked up just 3 points on the road Our run was way, way worse. We're still sinking to new lows, now lower than when King Power took over, but people are still clapping the players off the pitch.
  5. Earlier this year we lost 9 home games on the trot without scoring a single goal.
  6. Rolled his ankle when he landed after jumping
  7. On 2nd October, John Percy said the hearing was scheduled to begin in "the next few weeks". Everton and Forest's verdicts were published around a month after the hearings concluded, so I'm expecting we hear the initial verdict in the next month. Of course, there will then be an appeal, so we likely won't know the final decision until 2026.
  8. Mavididi. What the hell has happened to this guy?
  9. Cifuentes may not be capable of better, but changing manager is just sticking a plaster over the fundamental issues. We are rotten from the Top down. Top and Rudkin out. All new contracts (renewals or incomings) with a sensible wage cap appropriate for this division. Live within our means financially. Get rid of all the trash mercenaries. Stop the corrupt "sponsorships". Only then it might be worth thinking about who the manager is.
  10. And sack (or at the very least change job role) Rudkin and get Steve Walsh back as DOF - the job he should have been given 10+ years ago.
  11. Completely and utterly shite
  12. "Never let us down"
  13. Not for at least four, unfortunately
  14. Not sure he's even that
  15. Completely pathetic
  16. Probably the only slightly new thing he said worth repeating for others is that he thinks we're likely to post further significant losses for 2024/25, and will be at risk of another charge for that.
  17. Jordan James
  18. The food in the fan zone was ok but pretty basic though. Same as the fan zone overall. Wouldn't be hard to put a pizza van in there too.
  19. I dislike The Sun as much as anyone, but I remember they were first to report we were in line for a £90m+ annual loss circa January 2022 (?) and all the comments were the same on here then. E.g., "journos making stuff up", "how would The Sun know?" etc. I have a feeling there's some truth in it.
  20. They've had our pants down if true.
  21. https://sportwitness.co.uk/leicester-city-give-dof-permission-to-speak-to-player-list-of-transfer-suitors-keeps-growing/ Borussia Dortmund have been given permission by Leicester City to speak to midfielder Wilfried Ndidi about a move this summer. That’s according to Africa Foot, who report that the 28-year-old is one of Dortmund’s transfer options and director of football Sebastien Kehl has been given permission to speak to the midfielder. They explain that the Nigerian midfielder is being targeted by several clubs this summer and Dortmund are one of them. A divorce between Leicester and Ndidi seems inevitable this summer after their relegation to the Championship. Several clubs have already shown interest, with the likes of Manchester United and Al-Hilal reportedly entering the race in the last few days. Borussia Dortmund don’t intend to stand on the sidelines watching, though, and according to sources close to the player they are not giving up on the Leicester man. In fact, sporting director Sebastien Kehl has been given authorisation by Leicester’s management to hold discussions with the midfielder. They’ve offered a five-year deal to him and a €12m offer has been submitted to Leicester. The Foxes don’t intend to sell cheaply, though, and want at least €15m. That’s not a huge gap to jump and perhaps if talks between Kehl and Ndidi go well, Dortmund will increase their initial bid.
  22. Sure, it certainly could mean nothing. But if you add the fact that his backroom team has begun to splinter off in different directions, to what's being reported by the BBC (below), it suggests we could be disappointed if we're hoping for Rohl being appointed Leicester manager today or anytime soon.
  23. The Sheff Weds goalkeeper coach has left and joined Rangers. So, if we are getting Rohl eventually, we're certainly not getting his full backroom team too. Which makes me lean towards the theory that this is nowhere near as done as we're all hoping it is.
