The Doctor

Mind not watching anymore?

Abysmal. Can't argue they didn't deserve that, 94 minutes before a shot on target is pathetic. I'd gladly send Casadei back now, he offers nothing

94 minutes before their keeper made a save, not good enough

Too many passengers ultimately, they've done a number on us

Play acting injury again... Not that it'll make a difference

Ridiculous ref, booking for both sure but then Summerville should walk for booting Choudhury off the ball

Summerville has to go

What a tackle from Hamza

Also lads there's a time for urgency and a time for patience, this is urgency time

Get a grip ref, that was a perfect tackle from Winks

Come on ref, they're getting right into the timewasting now

Linos not paying attention? Looked clearly out from the kop

I know you can't really complain at 13 wins from 14 but it does annoy me how slow we are with the ball sometimes, passing and holding for stat padding rather than with a point

Pretty much. Just not sure why we're persisting with Butch, at least with KDH we've seen he can offer something

Casadei is absolutely dogshit tbh.

Been coming, get Casadei and Vardy off now Enzo

The issue is the wingers have noone to hit, Kelz would only make that worse with how deep he tends to play

Casadei is about 5 yards off the pace, Vardy not really involved. Fatawu meanwhile is gonna give Byram PTSD

I said you were smarter than that, you highlighted that comment specifically and told me not to give you that bullshit???

Ok then, you're not smart enough to avoid devolving into contrarian nonsense?? A lot of clubs faced challenges from the collapse of ITVDigital, we were the only ones who had the storm of a premier league wage bill, new stadium and lawsuit from a former player who alongside his lawyer rejected a payment plan to service the debts, filing a winding up petition and causing us to have to opt for administration vs ceasing to exist. Our playing budget was non existent already that season, we signed two free agents on pay-as-you-play deals and tried to sell everyone we could but many rejected moves (e.g. Muzzy Izzet, £6m bid accepted from Middlesbrough but he turned down the move to get us back up). You talk as if we delayed going to administration when we knew it was inevitable to get an unfair advantage, but we didn't, we went in when a single creditor rejected a repayment plan having not invested in the squad at all, instead selling as many as we could to make up the deficit (but as we found the last couple of years, you can't force other teams to bid for players and can't force players to agree to those moves).

Correct. We'd agreed repayment plans with all other creditors, but Wise and Hall rejected it, and caused the club to have to file for administration instead

At the time we were in a unique situation because we do absolutely know that Ipswich and derby weren't building a new ground while getting relegated. Come on dude, you're smarter than this contrarian nonsense

Did the other relegated clubs also get relegated just as they'd built a new stadium and then get sued by a former player for unfair dismissal?

Didn't prepare for both relegation and the collapse of a major TV deal occuring at exactly the same time, nor anticipated getting sued for sacking a player for committing GBH, then the players lawyer being the one who refused a repayment plan and pushed a winding up petition against the club, forcing it into administration. As I said earlier, it was a perfect storm of a situation. Like pointing at all the businesses that could have survived Brexit, or could have survived a pandemic, but couldn't survive both, and accusing them of being irresponsible.

Because the other clubs weren't relegated from the premier league with a brand new stadium acting as millstone around their necks? We budgeted as a premier league club, commissioned and build the ground as a premier league club and got relegated just as it was completed
