I have my name and season ticket number at the top of the page when I click season tickets and then just the list of names with a download button under each name
-
Go to the ticket section on the website (not the app) click on your name in the top right hand corner. then click on season tickets and select the one you want to have on your phone. I can see my dad’s and my lads ticket but they qualify for physical so I obvs just downloaded mine. then just add it to your wallet (there will be an option to add)

But that won’t improve our current lack of transfer activity and that’s what this thread is about tbf.

Great signing, can’t be any worse than Patson Daka.
-
Struggling to correlate how say an attendance of zero home fans against Sheff Wed would encourage someone like Al Hilal to offer us £30m for Patson Daka. Or how zero shirt sales will result in a lucrative move to Italy for Vestergaard tbh.

As squad enforcer he’s got something to offer. Can cover multiple positions. He’s certainly no worse than Skipp in midfield based on what we’ve witnessed, no worse than Justin at RB and in that role he can play inverted which Justin is unable. Useful sub option.

For me it was crazy to loan out Hamza last season. He’s a great option as a proper old school utility player. He can do a job as a defender or a midfielder at this level and when required in the premier league tbh. Sometimes it only takes a crunching tackle from him to gee up the fans and the team. A player like Skipp could learn a thing or too about how commitment and endeavour can make up for deficiencies in other parts of their game.

Ronny-Rob rivals Pickford in the shortest armed goalkeeper stakes.

Notts Forest fans getting in early to get a discount on names and numbers on the backs of their retro (relegation season) shirt. I bet they’ll sell loads with their two best players Gibbs-White or Elanga on the back.

That’s as bad a quality snide as you’ll see. Badges too small, badly stitched and too far apart with the wrong sponsor. I’ll take 2👍🏻

He’s a popular lad at one of his ex clubs Middlesbrough due to this admission. At least it’s proof of dedication to a cause (watching the golf), as well as an innovative approach to coming up with solutions to problems that may arise. 🥴

Pearson never managed Derby in the Premier League and fell out with the owner so it’s completely different. Cooper’s fan popularity has little to do with actual Premier league form at Forest. He was pretty rubbish in the PL for Forest and they just stayed up because of a basket case club called LCFC having a terrible season off the scale. He was sacked quickly the following season. O’Neil’s failure is very fresh and whether he’s learned a lot in that brief time since his sacking, from a motivational perspective alone it’s some stretch to convince LCFC players (and fans) that he is any different to the O’Neil that somehow made a Wolves side with Cunha and Ait Nouri in it be significantly worse than Cooper’s shambolic Leicester City team during the first part of last season.
-
I think that’s about right. If a manager has consistently failed at clubs at the same level as Leicester then it’s very likely that he’ll fail at Leicester too. Why would it be any different? Are there many managers that buck that trend?
-
You don’t need to recruit a ready made PL standard manager. You just might as well take a risk in The Championship with a younger manager not tainted with the sackings that O’Neil has experienced very quickly in ALL of his management experiences at Premier League level. How do players look at O’Neil? Like the rest of us, we know he isn’t good enough to lead a team at that level and so will the players. He showed it most recently last season when he first blamed VAR then publicly blamed his players for somehow managing to be worse than an awful LCFC team. Then Vitor Pereira came in and showed everyone that (as Wolves fans already knew,) Wolves’ poor form was down to O’Neil’s poor management.
-
All history shows that with equal or stronger squads compared to Leicester City’s (Wolves had a better squad than us last season) O’Neil fails 100% of the time. Next year will be no conundrum if we get promoted. We’ll be adrift near the bottom, O’Neil will get sacked and we’ll be paying yet more compensation to a manager out of his depth. Same thing will happen with Wilder or Dyche.
-
That’s absolutely wrong. Carsley did a great job in charge of England. We played much better football him than we did with Southgate. We had one loss against an excellent Greece team whilst playing with an experimental lineup. An 83% win ratio whilst giving debuts to 8 of his u21 team is definitely not a spectacular fail. Gareth.
-
Absolutely no way Carsley would leave the England set up. He’s perfect for the U21’s and will be in the main job after Tuchel. For that reason I’ve ignored that option as well as Rosenior who’s just signed a new contract at Strasbourg having got them into Europe. Both beyond the realms of possibility.

Could be Top is trying to coax actor Ryan O’Neal out of death forced retirement having seen his performance in underrated 1970’s film Barry Lyndon?

Lock this thread and chuck it in the nearest bin.

A properly run club at our level wouldn’t consider either of them OR Dyche. Southampton certainly wouldn’t and recruiting Will Still shows way more ambition.
-
The top names on our supposed shortlist, other than the unknown or Rohl (who for me is by far the best option) will all have the same inevitable end. Looking at the history of Wilder, Dyche, O’Neill - their spells have ALWAYS ended in a sacking at the top level - and a fair sacking due to football reasons. What would be different about them being within the current Leicester set up that would mean they’d suddenly become a success and not sacked? The answer is nothing, all have failed at equally well/badly run clubs as us with a similar squad strength to what we have now and it will be a case of rinse and repeat. None of them have the aura of a manager like Maresca who can motivate players to play above their level. All have been tainted by past sackings that have been fully deserved. An appointment of a manager within the merry go round of the usual suspects at this level, very much including Wilder, Dyche or O’Neill will be the final proof to the players as well as us fans after the Cooper fiasco, that we are aspiring to be Middlesbrough or Stoke. Teams that are happy with being underwhelming also rans in The Championship.

Leicester vs Peterborough United - Pre-Season

I think I’d rather see him stay as a coach. As soon as you become a manager, your time at a club is limited. He’ll either get sacked or get head hunted. We need Kingy around long term. Obviously it depends on his ambitions but he has so much to offer yet as a coach.
