  1. No, not everyone. A lot of us laughed at the notion he's our best defender. Whether it's stupid errors or just not doing the basics, this was always going to happen. There's a reason no-one's bought him. All of our other "best defender"s - like Maguire and Fofana - got big moves. Every coach sees it, every pundit sees it. He's just not that good.
  2. Faes...."hEs ArE bEst deFeNda" Soumare. Traffic cone. I don't care if (people think) he had one good game against Brum. He's utter garbage.
  3. My (now) sister in law and sister btw. They used to talk about doing "the walk" in the second half when they gave me a lift home after the game 😉
  4. He's not "the problem" but he offers nothing and does nothing. 0 goals and 2 assists in 3 seasons. Doesnt track back properly, never spots the midfield runners, slow, ponderous. JJ was livelier and deserves a spot on that basis. As for the boy Hoolian, Ulloa vibes.
  5. They do those wrap things that Maccy Ds stopped doing. Best thing from Canada since Iain Hume.
  6. Which would have been totally irrelevant had Patson not had his Toblerone shaped boots on. The place was silent for 80 mins.
  7. Ran out of birthdays maybe? Next step will be to repost the Highfield Road '84 kiss chase videos from Bentley's Roof
  8. Yeah just from the fact I don't live in South Leicester, we barely played them for years after I went to my first game in the 80s and they've always been a mid-table irrelevance. The Forest and Derby games have always been bigger to me. Im not playing it down as a game, just the "rivalry". I grew up on the 90s ding dongs with Arthur Cox's dream team and the fall of post-Clough Forest. That whole "we hate Forest, hate Derby, who the fk are Coventry" is about where I'm at. It's 3 points and 6 fingered cabbages hanging bed sheets off the M69 bridges with burning helicopters on doesn't change the amount of points.
  9. Been attempting to give a shit about this for a while now and simply can't get any more bothered about it than Charlton, Oxford or Wednesday. As funny as their demise was a decade ago, they're just not a serious rival in any way.
  10. No point blaming the manager for much today, maybe the usual Skipp and Soumare show but he needs to get the new players bedded in first. He's been giving youth a chance, finally has some new faces and has been here for 5 mins. Anyone talking about getting rid probably wanted Russell Martin here anyway.
  11. VAR overturns that
  12. Never a red, another one influenced by the players. Switched it off, game's gone if we're sending people off for that.
  13. Marinatedfatass strikes again. A circus can change its clowns, it will still be a circus.
  14. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The women's team is a sideline. Bit like Ratcliffe at United, probably wouldn't know the captain if he shook her hand.
  15. Developed into a neat outfit last season. 2 weeks before the season started we sacked that manager for one with a pretty poor record overall and added random signings. Expectations are low to say the least.
  16. We look like a team that sacked their manager 10 days ago and added some random unknown players instead of experienced campaigners
  17. We look all over the place in the first 5 mins
  18. They're all "slow burners" til they get actual game time. The division is full of teams giving their youth players a chance - because they havent got underperforming deadwood like Faes, Kristiansen, BDR and Soumare taking up spaces in it. I get it at PL level its a huge jump so you loan them out. But this is the division you loan them out to, as we're here we should be playing them in it.
  19. Luton. But yes, being player of the season for them would be incredible. Be even better to do a Barnes at WBA and do so well we recall him early 😁
  20. So you wouldn't be the best person to comment on what groups do inside the ground to protest then or if they actually are "good boys"?
  21. Maybe try not selling the stuff for a ridiculous mark up in the first place?
  22. £248M over the last 3 summers hasn't done it, why should a few more quid on BDR? As ever this is another case of zero information being released. We'll find out in a few years about an underlying issue or some sort of cover up, football is littered with them. If he'd actually been away with his country and offered an extended rest you'd expect a top, committed player to be straight back at it and wanting to make amends for last season not turning up randomly 3 weeks in. Someone with his experience at this level should be a huge asset but he wanders round like one of those mercenary farts we made a habit of employing in the Levein and Kelly era.
  23. It's not really even final straw time. There's been 4 or 5 permanent managers in Daka's time here and not a single one has given him a run of more than 3 or 4 games. The last couple of seasons have seen a late 30s striker ran into the ground and playing 90 mins on many occasions rather than giving Patson even a 20 minutes impact. It's not a case of bad luck or bad judgement. None of those managers have rated him after seeing him day in, day out in training or trusted him to start because when he's had his chances in games he's missed sitters and cost us points. After waiting for Vardy to step aside, he's now behind Ayew and probably Carranza. His bank manager may appreciate him but he's wasted some of his best years here.
  24. Let's not persist with this nonsense. He's never done it, never will do it and has spent the last 3 years living off "that night in Moscow" and people insisting "he's got pace". He's off to AFCON again in Jan isn't he? Potentially rules him out of the season til Feb. Leeds will be relegated by then anyway 😁
  25. 8/10 Got more over the line than I expected but we're lumped with Daka, Soumare, VK and Faes for at least another 4 months. Got incredible fees for some genuinely average players and haven't paid anything substantial for anyone coming in.
