Awful and shocking news. Brad was a school friend of mine, and I’ll always remember sharing our woodworking bench and getting so many tellings off for messing about, and doing impressions of our teacher. It’s always been a source of pride that he got his dream job as stadium announcer (and a sign of the decline of the club that he lost it). A lovely bloke, taken way too soon, RIP Brad 💙💔💙

Sheff Wednesday!

That was all just a bit too….. Leicestery

You don’t think you’re over reacting slightly here??

Ie. West Ham got him because their expert on goal keeping had first hand experience of how good he is.

You’re right, that seems longer ago!!!

Not a fan myself, I thought he was very slow for a young player and didn’t seem to have the outstanding attributes you’d need to offset that lack of pace

argh! Yes of course!

I thought he was great at finding a pass when he first started for us… then went through a spell where he was doing the Kasper over hit to the wing thing… I think it was more form / confidence and he’s actually good with the ball

That was my guess too

Stol or Iversen?? Stol isn’t terrible with the ball

Like most years I swing between this rather pessimistic view and the “we’re too strong for this league”…. But we are certainly weaker than two seasons ago …. In fact every year since 2018 we’ve been weaker every year

Absolutely…. I’m beginning to despise them

If we’ve learnt anything as a club surely this must be it. (We won’t have)

We certainly do, everytime I visit another club’s forum I’m thankful we have FoxesTalk. Thanks Mark

And that seems to be perfect timing… he gets a year in an easier league with shed loads of games, ready for next season in the PL!

I’d agree wholeheartedly with this in an office / restaurant / building site / any normal working environment. Not, however, in elite sports. If the performance Director says that sitting for 4 hours a day in a car is hampering your fitness / recovery / performance, then you should not only listen you should be embracing his advice (and it’s pretty obviously correct). The trouble with this line of reasoning is that we don’t have a Performance Director, we had an under-staffed manager, who had lost respect, and was trying to instil standards into a workforce that had been allowed to largely do what they want, with a Board that would back them and not their manager. Our problems are symptoms, and always point in the same direction

We have a Head Of Communications!!!??? What a cushy number that is!! “Morning guys, anything you’d like to communicate to the fans today?” ”Nope” ”See you tomorrow”

Me too, it’s really depressing to see KDH sign for a club we were so far ahead just 3-4 years ago. Our decline is quite staggering

Agree, coupled with our expectations being lower, he came from Chelsea reserves for next to nothing and won our hearts quickly and retained them with his effort.

OUCH!!

I’m no fan of Soumare… however if the new manager has the same effect that Enzo had on Vesty, RVN on Thomas etc etc then happy days. If he doesn’t think he can or if it doesn’t transpire then sell. The main problem is, as always, our inept board have given that new manager 3 weeks instead of 3 months to make those decisions. So frustrating that we handicap ourselves through laziness

Yeah good point. I was going back a little longer and selling him when the rumours were £50m

The other way to interpret that is; Frustrated at the underperformance of the team. Something I’d definitely have sympathy with!

Hmmmm …. I hope he thrives, but whenever I hear a player can play so many positions I fear for his career as a utility man that’s handy to have on the bench. Hopefully for his sake he nails down a position and it becomes his.
