Hearing BDCR is fit? 👀

It’s a very small shop with a fraction of the stock that they have at the KP tbh. The players who will be rocking up for signing stuff tonight are Patson and Hamza.

This is repeating one source- casinonieuws.nl. There’s absolutely nothing else being reported so I’d take the news with a pinch of salt until it’s confirmed and backed up by the company not operating. At the moment the website etc is running as normal and it’s not been reported elsewhere.

The ‘trophy hunter club’ motto explains why such a top squad chose relegation to the Championship 2 years ago and the same motto also explains the recent recruitment of Cooper. It ensured we hunted a league winning trophy down in 23/24 and we’ll be back hunting that very same trophy down in 25/26.

What better way to celebrate our Northern life here in Midlands Leicester than by throwing £100 at a patchwork market stall jacket that will get you bullied every time you wear it. Wild👍🏻

Don’t you think they should be criticised if they lose comfortably then? Just because it was predicted?

Ghanaian news sites reporting that Ayew’s knee injury is significant. They also report that his Ghanaian team mate - Issahaku, also has a serious injury. To confirm Ayew’s teammates full name is Abdul Fatawu Issahaku 😬

Ayew and Fatawu both injured on international duty. Presumably Vardy out for a stretch and Ricardo out for an eternity. We are staring down the barrel of an Edouard start and an absolute shellacking from Judas Enzo’s Chelsea mob. KDH to finally get on (and then off) the bench for them as a final act of shithousery from Enzo, scoring the 5th before not celebrating. Enzo wildly applauding the Chelsea fans at full time as if his whole LCFC season never really happened.

1. Yes 2. Yes 3. Depends on the player and how they played for Leicester but most of the time no. 4. Yes!!

He was brilliant in his time as a presenter but not able to involve himself in the conversation. Lineker’s strength is he was a world class striker in the men’s game who also has become a very slick presenter. The other names you mention don’t have that gravitas so will be a downgrade irrespective of their presenting ability. If we are being honest, what many of them do have is the power of not being a white middle aged man and that is ultimately a strength in a area of tv entertainment that is trying to hit certain targets and attract new audiences.

Lineker does that too even though he was a class above many of those he talks to in the MOTD studio. The difference is he can offer an opinion on say Harry Kane and it’s actually constructive and interesting even though it annoyed the current England striker. Lineker also often provides some sanity when he’s got say Keown or Murphy alongside him, lesser players with big opinions. Chappers can’t possibly provide that because he’s effectively one of us. He's not been there even if his opinion is valid. I actually quite like Prutton on Sky’s Championship because he’s a slick presenter and was a pro footballer so he’s been there and done that. Less so Jenas when he wasn’t in disgrace as he’s just not at the same level presenting-wise.

Everyone calling for Chappers underestimate how much Lineker uses his past experience as a world class striker to add to the viewing experience. He’s not a just a brilliant host who asks questions to the more knowledgeable guests, he’s been there and done that at the highest level and that gives him so much more as the host. Chappers is a good tv host but very much the question asker who has to realistically get the guests to provide all of the experienced answers as he’s not got that previous history as a pro. It’s a big loss for the BBC from their flagship footy programme in my opinion.

I’d say a good proportion of the home crowd are equally as upset with Cooper’s (mis)management as the away fans (many are both tbf.) It’s just much more difficult to start an off the cuff chant at a home match than it is away as the fans are spread over 3/4 of the stadium. It won’t be long however until ‘Cooper Out’ chants are heard across the KP and at away games if he continues with his current trajectory.

There is one small problem with your plan. Ricardo is out for 4 months!

He actually caused a lot of problems for Dalot who fouled him 3 times and Casemiro struggled against him when trying to help out. The problem was the bit after he’d beaten his man when his decision making usually went wrong. That being said he was one of the few catching the eye for us alongside Buonanotte and Winks. No one was great but I think he was better than 2/10!

You can see Winksy’s frustration with his manager week in week out on the pitch. He was our best player today (despite his rubbish set pieces.) Going from a master tactician and motivator in Maresca to Cooper’s chaos must’ve knocked a football technician like him for 6.

Cooper is adept at soundbites like this. Nothingism’s that appear to say lots but have very little meaning other than obvious statements whilst trying to put a positive spin on shit shows like this. Presumably he says similar things to the players which is why we continue to repeat the same under whelming performances week in week out. He’d be better off moving to a social media post at the club where he could speak this well worded dialled in shite week in week out without the expectation it will motivate the players or the fans.

Edited, hope you don’t mind

The only thing we can hope for is Cooper has a reputation for over estimating the time it takes for an injury to recover. Otherwise we are down to 1 fit right back in JJ who is long term out of form defensively and yet who is expected to play in a superhuman role as a wing back and a traditional fullback AT THE SAME TIME in Cooper’s bizarre lob sided formation that he uses when Ricardo is unavailable/not selected.

Yeh first thing I did. Has no impact but it makes me feel better 😂

We were absolutely woeful. Surprised the team are averaging a 4. Lethargic & clueless.

Can someone change the default setting for Cooper to Leave rather than Stay. He’s getting accidental stays.

When the effort isn’t being put in on the pitch you know that the writing is on the wall for the manager. For the sake of this season he surely has to go. Ignoring his shocking tactics, the manager is at least meant to motivate and Cooper appears to do the exact opposite.

Remarkable refereeing. Ugarte, Casemiro and Dalot have committed multiple fouls and absolutely no cards

I was in the lower tier at Portman Road and got an excellent view of the Soumare run. The grit and determination in the lad’s face was clear to see, absolutely no one was going to shake him off the ball. Whether it’s a blip, whether he’s playing for a January move or whether it’s actually a bit of positive coaching from Cooper I’ll guess we’ll find out over the next few weeks! .
