  1. At least this season might finally put a stop to the McKenna jizzfest. If he'd kept that squad up it would have been unbearable.
  2. Realistically we can be relegated by Wolves at their place. Though you could say we were relegated by Wolves at our place. It's been over since then.
  3. Our group of 4 will be missing. First one I've missed at home for about 4 seasons. I'll be honest, I'm not even that bothered. I asked the lad if he wanted to go and it was like I'd offered him a root canal.
  4. I think Winks not wanting to stay overnight here was to do with his missus being heavily pregnant and them now having a new baby but even so on that sort of money, just buy a house up here. It was something that Little, MON and Pearson all preached about. Even Enzo had the entire squad stay at Seagrave when he first joined. It's just another aspect of a club in absolute turmoil. If it was the 90s the Daily Mirror would have put the story up with a club badge cracked in half.
  5. It's exactly this, he made the comment that Celtic reserves were bigger than Leicester
  6. Moyes was never coming to a basket case like us for any money
  7. Until last night I was holding the belief as we clearly can't afford to sack him we just wait it out. I've reached the point where I think he just needs to go. He's damaging the club and his own reputation by staying. It will be a long time, if ever before a side gets as low as this again. The lack of goals or threat, the porous defence in every combination and formation, the complete lack of belief in anyone in the squad. As it stands he won't get another PL job. If this continues for the next few games he won't get ANY job and he must know that.
  8. With this club I'm fully expecting a corner flag pic tomorrow and an announcement they've sacked Kingy.
  9. Find me any football club in the Premier League where the directors or owner are local to the club. It simply doesn't happen these days. We're all run by foreign investors and the DoF role is given to the first candidate through the door who can tell the difference between Ronaldo and Ronald McDonald. I mean if you turn down requests for a Banks statue because there's nowhere safe enough to place it and then after the chairman dies you discover health and safety isn't actually that arsed about statue placement, it's definitely worth a negative comment. Can't fault the garden topiary though.
  10. Thai tourism could increase by 3000% and we wouldn't have any more money to spend. Newcastle are owned by a country and still have to look at selling Guimares and Gordon.
  11. He was right. The trajectory of this club definitely matches his own career. https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11712/12276031/danny-ward-leicester-city-goalkeepr-signs-new-foxes-deal-to-2025
  12. Did you blame Seagrave when we were in Europe? Winning the league last year? Or is it just convenient when we're losing. It's a baseless argument. Loads of clubs have big training grounds, their players still put the effort in.
  13. This is just a case of played for us and doing well somewhere now. On that basis, if Simon Grayson's smashing it in the Nepalese Premier League in a few weeks we should give him a go too.

    You mention all of those players as if they were the Messi-esque centre of their team's victory. Most of them didn't play WITH Vardy for a start, the formations were different, Vardy sometimes pushed wide or they came on as a sub for him or we were just playing one up top. Vardy just doesn't do well in a pairing, the best foils for him were Nugent and Okazaki playing behind him. In the case of Kane, Wood and Slimani (throw in Ulloa too if you like) he just doesn't play well round a big man, anticipating flick ons or running off a guy holding the ball up. The Kramaric story has been done to death. Wrong player wrong time, didn't take his limited chances never fitted our set up. Ranieri did the cruel to be kind thing and binned him off early.

    We've seen zero evidence of that in the last 3 years. When he came back from AfCon last season he was on a high and looked totally out of his depth. The misses at Leeds and Plymouth were beyond awful. I mean if you're not doing it at a top of the table game against Leeds OR against flops like Argyle where are you doing it? If he hangs around another 18 months he may get to play in front of no crowds anyway as the last KPFC supporters finally lose their faith.

    That's delusion. You cannot look at the reels of footage of him missing sitters and just generally fluffing his lines and call it disappointing. An odd miss is disappointing but to have so many obvious misses, to be physically weak and have such a poor touch is nothing to do with coaching or wrong place wrong time it's just the sign of a player incapable of playing at this level, maybe even the next level down. When you're through on goal or a cross arrives to you in the box that's just straightforward standard finishing. He's just not a top level striker.

    Liverpool away this season the same, shanked it
  18. The best you can hope for is that he's realised in the last two weeks how wonderful the training has been without Faes and Ayew and we go the next 9 games not having to see either of them.
  19. Planned on having a stress free afternoon away from the men's team. Bloody hell.
  20. Great play, been all over them since the second goal. Cain's being helped by Brighton apparently not playing full backs today. Another goal and we won't be the lowest scorers in the division.
  21. Apart from a few pundits talking them up like a fallen Real Madrid who think the City Ground has been a packed cauldron of noise for 25 years, they're getting the same level of patronisation we had with the "organised" and "hard to beat" tags that we earned under ONeill. Whilst both things are true, Arsenal would love to have Elanga and Hudson Odoi and Wood in their front line. Such a shame we didn't get NES here.
  22. In a division where all but two teams sat back against us and took 30 games to work out how to not get beat by 3 or 4. The boring games were just trying to find a way through two banks of 5 where there was virtually no jeopardy. Would have been good to see how that style worked for us in this league where there would have been more risks. At least the players had bought into it. They've accepted nothing that Cooper or RvN have tried to do.
  23. Ipswich away, January 1st 1995. Didn't get out of minus figures all game, pitch like a rink, lost 4-1 early McGhee relegation season. Barely a song out of our hungover support. Went there by bus, could easily have used Huskies and a sled packed with supplies.
  24. Probably the same as the topics on this forum This squad is a disgusting mess When did you realise we had bad owners? Would you have Enzo back?
  25. People moaning about Enzoball after this season are very strange. Boring? Sometimes. Predicatable? In the end? But look at some of the goals we weaved together last season. I'd have the beautiful bald bsatrad back in a heartbeat.
