This is all that matters now. Don't care if we get tonked in every game except the Forest one where we somehow shithouse a win or force a draw.

Imagine caring.

Ruud van Nistelrooy - New Manager - Official
Bilo replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
There is simply no way he can stay. He's lost all authority and credibility after having more than enough time to improve matters. If Dean Smith wasn't considered for the Championship season after inheriting a far worse situation than RVN did, then it's only logical that RVN is even further away from consideration. -
So many of our problems from this season stem from him. A horrible preseason, incoherent policies from the outset, huge amounts of money and wages spent on absolute pony and, of course, the severance payout meaning that our abilities in the transfer market were so severely limited. With hindsight, we were relegated from the moment he took the job and he should never have got an interview. Neutrals will say that he would have kept us up because he did with Forest, but ignore how incredibly fortunate they were to survive and how horrific the football was. Look at what they've done since him with only one good transfer window and summer - albeit also with a huge dollop of good fortune. That gives the biggest indicator as to Cooper's abilities.

It's flopped like me around Kemi Badenoch for some reason!

He is quite possibly the most divorced man who ever lived. Possibly even more divorced than Henry VIII.

Not so much a joke as the most hilariously repulsive poem ever written. “The Ballad of Bonnie Blue’s Fanny” They say it’s not a neat slit — no gentle fold, no dainty bloom. It’s a grenade in a deli counter, pastrami shrapnel flying past the smoked meats, a bucket of smashed crabs tipped over in a pub kitchen during lunch rush. It’s a pulled-apart cheese toastie, gutsy and stringing, molten and proud, an overflowing Turkish kebab dripping with garlic sauce and shame, stuffed into warm pitta, bursting at the seams like secrets too long kept. It’s been punched like a lasagne, layered, splattered, wounded and steaming. Tossed in the bin, that kebab — and still, it twitches, like a tuna sandwich on a barbershop floor, hair clippings clinging to its mayo-slick skin. Bonnie Blue’s fanny is barn doors unlatched in a storm, an axe wound carved into the narrative, the Dartford Tunnel at rush hour — humid, echoing, and full of impatient men. It’s a donkey yawning, an elephant’s eyelid blinking once in slow disbelief, a burst couch, stuffing spilled like hearts on sleeves. It’s a wet wallet trying to eat a hotdog, pathetic, messy, determined against all odds. It’s a Rottweiler with a mouth full of mayonnaise, confused, aggressive, slobbering through the cream. It’s a squished hedgehog on the roadside, spines flattened, dignity long gone. It is an explosion in a corned beef factory, a butcher’s sleeve, a ripped-out fireplace, a radio crackling static in a plasterer’s van, and an oyster factory torn to the heavens, pearls and brine raining down like war. Bonnie Blue’s fanny is legend. Not soft. Not sweet. But myth made meat, and meat made art.

https://chng.it/9vzLGzfdSL Dreams became reality when Jamie Vardy donned the Leicester City jersey, giving every fan the best years we will ever experience. His story of rising from non-league football to becoming a Premier League champion is legendary and deeply inspirational. Vardy's passion, loyalty, and unyielding determination brought Leicester City FC to unprecedented heights. The 2015-2016 season will forever be etched in history, thanks to his record-breaking 11 consecutive Premier League goals. His iconic performances have made generations of Leicester fans proud. Beyond his personal achievements, Vardy has left an indelible mark on Leicester as a whole. Local businesses enjoyed flourishing trade as the club surged to international fame. The community spirit strengthened, rallying behind a common hero who never forgot his roots. His involvement with charities and youth initiatives exemplifies the values he holds dear—commitment, hard work, and giving back. As Jamie Vardy leaves the club after 13 memorable years, it is only fitting that we commemorate his monumental impact. We propose naming a stand at King Power Stadium in his honour or erecting a statue to celebrate his contributions. Such a tribute will not only honour his legacy but also inspire future generations to dream big and work relentlessly towards their goals. By taking this step, Leicester City FC will showcase its dedication to celebrating those who have significantly shaped its identity. It's a powerful message to current and future players: loyalty and excellence will be etched into history and admired for years to come. Let's rally together to ensure Jamie Vardy's legacy lives on within the club. Sign this petition to urge Leicester City FC to celebrate a player who has given so much to the team, the fans, and the city itself.

Franculino Djú from Midjtylland. 20 years old, blistering pace, loves to play off the shoulder and a good finisher. Raw and unpolished but great potential.

I could go on all day, but the goal against Manchester United to seal the record is an iconic moment in football history, never mind Premier League history. The perfect pass from Fuchs, Vardy latching on, the roar, the commentary, Vardy shouting 'it's ****ing mine' at the away end as bottles rain down on him and the team gathering around him to celebrate a record that may never be broken. Heritage. Poetry. Beauty. Everything every football fan who supports a team not in the Big Six dreams of experiencing. We experienced it, and we wouldn't have done without Vardy. The greatest player in Leicester City's history by miles and miles. Oh, and he's underrated. Neutrals will come to realise that he was far, far more than a wiry wind-up merchant who never stopped running. Treasure the memories, get the statue built and name a stand after him.

Wind up merchant is enough so long as it gets the away end frothing.

I'd want him to replace the Birch when he retires.

Manager rarely hangs around anywhere long either.

Tbf I'm 'really keen' on tonguing Margot Robbie, but there needs to be reciprocation.

Do they even have grounds? The fact that we bounced between leagues is as problematic for the EFL as it was for the PL, surely.
-
Or, more worryingly, Ruud is announced as gone with our cornflakes with Dyche In by lunchtime.

It's such a small market that the amounts of money needed to affect it are tiny. A couple of hundred quid of £10s and £20s brings him down from 8/1 to 4/1, it gets noticed by other punters and those punters think there's more in it than just Sean from Enderby having a speculative fiver on it and tweeting about it. Hey presto, actual money gets lumped on and it's 1/2.
-
If you want a good indicator of Dyche's abilities, see how Moyes has done with the same players. The game has passed him by and he hasn't evolved with it the way his successor has.

I think this is a fair question, but we need context. Their academy is miles off ours for a start, lessening the opportunity to bring through youth. Then it comes down to how much freedom he had in the transfer market to bring in players, what the scouting network is like and so on. Sheffield Wednesday is an odd situation, because of Chansiri's stunning incompetence, in that any perceived failings are probably going to come with heavy caveats while any successes would be in spite of the setup.
-
I think the opposite. If he'd come into the toughest league in the world, with enormous scrutiny, and failed, that could have been it for his career in English football. If he takes a job at a (likely) promotion chasing club with deeper pockets in a league he's familiar with, it's a more natural and sensible progression. If he does get us promoted, it's important that we pull out the stops to keep him. In fact, I'd keep him even if we just fell short so long as there was clear progression and identity. We haven't had a manager stay for more than a year than Rodgers, and it shows.

Seriously looking forward to Lee Anderson FC falling down the table. It's inevitable.
