I'm wondering if it's some sort of gentlemans agreement where they send us Ferguson or something and we agree to not risk him getting injured before they sell him. It is utterly bizarre if it's a tactical thing. I know he was pretty poor against West Ham but he is not a worse option to start than Ayew. Rumoured team is scary. Think we're getting an absolute drubbing here.

I'm not convinced by him but I do think he's got probably the shortest rap sheet of our centre halves. I think I'd go for him and Vestergaard - the best of a bad bunch. Rumoured team is terrifying. I mean at least we have a professional goalkeeper so it's better than originally feared, but they're going to absolutely splat us I think. It's a real red flag of a side. Think this will be a very heavy beating.

Don't even want it to be called off. We'll lose regardless of when it is and we don't need an extra midweek game. We've been waiting all day for this punishment anyway, it's like having an operation delayed. Just get it over with.

Thank god for that.

This is another one of those where it seems almost beyond ineptness and feels like purposeful sabotage. They don't even have to do anything here. They find own goals where there isn't even the opportunity for one. I wonder if it's because you've been critical on here. I wonder this sort of thing now given I'm banned from games for something I didn't do. I wonder if the real reason is what I've just put there. Seems too coincidental.

Our fanbase is probably that bit too big for us to be quite Stoke. But then replace them with Sheffield Wednesday I suppose. I don't think we're insulated from this.

We surely can't risk playing him tonight. I don't think it's even hyperbole to say they could get 10 goals.

This in a nutshell sums up how badly run Leicester are. It's a joke at Leicester these days. A completely unserious organisation. Would be a terrible look for the Premier League if we did somehow fluke survival.

There was a time it was unthinkable that I'd agree with this sort of thing but I'm there now as well. It couldn't be more different to the last time we got promoted. We were bad, but we tried. I refused to watch the Wolves game when I saw the lineup. Total vindication. It was even more hilariously bad than I thought it would be.

Rodgers was right with what he said, but it was classic reputation management from him. He was largely responsible for some of the dire recruitment.

I've had comments from fans of the following who have called us either the worst team they've played this season: Newcastle Chelsea Manchester United Wolves And one saying we're the worst side they've ever played at this level (Brentford). We're truly awful. I really think Russell Martin is the only thing stopping us coming 20th. And we might yet.

Yep. I think there's a real case we've deserved 0 wins this season. We're remarkably lucky to have the points tally we do.

This isn't all a result of some sort of redemption arc either - they're involved again because the team has declined and the standards are low. This squad is rubbish and I want anyone involved in that being the case booted as far from the club as possible. Which is the main argument for why Cooper did have to go. Rudkin still being in post is so laughable that you can only suspect it is some sort of dirt he does have on the owner.

The game was already lost anyway (well it was from the minute he named Ward) and people have no other way to express their dissatisfaction. The club have yet again taken the piss of the fans by playing Ward - how are they meant to react?

If Ward does play then people really should refuse to give them the viewing figure. I won't be. I'm not having my intelligence insulted again. I don't think it's hyperbolic to say if he does play that records could fall. The circumstances are there.

I'd love it to go bang but I fear it's just going to be a very drawn out thing. We'll just become Stoke.

He's better than anyone we have, but the pace thing is an obvious issue - that's the main issue with our defence and he doesn't fix it.

I wonder if there's any chance the Premier League could fine us for playing him. Didn't Blackpool once get fined for picking a blatantly stupid team before? That may be to do with changes but surely it's bordering on bringing the game into disrepute.

The owner.

Good on those who did boo - about time some accountability was taken at the club. It's time to go for the higher ups though. They're the ones who really need the heat on them now.

Yep. Carried by residue from an improbable ****up and an ambitious young manager. An ambitious young manager eh - no wonder he had no interest in sticking around this place. I increasingly agree that people like him and Whelan are only in post because they'll lift the lid on a lot of dirt if not. It's the most plausible situation really.

Only you have to pay £25 for it.

This is no joke. It really could happen. I don't think people grasp that this is a real possibility. It isn't hyperbole. We're 22/1 to win the game. That's San Marino type odds. Our only hope of not getting absolutely humiliated is that it's over Christmas, a busy period and that Liverpool may rest some of their better players, which should hopefully keep it down to 4/5. They have a much tougher game after us (West Ham, who are also shit).

Wonder how it compared against Wolves equivalent when we beat them 0-4 in 2022. Probably nothing close. No surprise then that they'll be in the Premier League again next season and we won't. You generally get what you deserve in football.

I think if you offered me a 4-0 loss right now I'd take it.
