  1. Not sure how the new SCR rules that replaces PSR next term (Premier League) would make a difference in our circumstances if applied retrospectively. https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/13473576/premier-league-clubs-approve-new-squad-cost-ratio-rules-to-replace-psr-but-vote-against-a-proposal-that-could-have-introduced-a-salary-cap
  2. Just as likely to be zero given how the restrospective applying of rules doesn't stand up to legal scrutiny. It's all guesswork beyond most of our pay grades.
  3. Wonder if the Rangers fans have still got this banner? They might donate given that we have a link with them.
  4. Certainly had your players fired up at our place last season, aided by Danny Ward, obvs.
  5. He doesn't seem to stick around anywhere so not likely to be a long-term option. Might be a decent appointment and get us back on track. Any contract needs to be based on results, something it seems, we don't do.
  6. I think we've done the famous ex-player thing before. Once bitten.... RvN (although that was allegedly Top's call).
  7. Not Kingy, too much heart over head. I don't want to hear him being abused after half a dozen winless matches. I know nothing about Skubala other than what's been discussed on here and Google. However, could be less of a risk than some of the names being mentioned from the Euro leagues. I don't think we are yet at the point of needing a short-term firefighter as we still have half a season left. I hope that the 'panel' are looking towards a long-term appointment as have other Championship clubs over the past couple of months. Don't want this season written off.
  8. West Midlands Police are big fans
  9. Like to see Soumare's stats. At least Daka runs about and puts the effort in. And he scored against NottsF so that's got give extra weight.
  10. Nope, still say that Soumare was worse. Daka's pitiful contribution is still better.
  11. Perhaps he'll cheer up now. Always looks so bloody mardy.
  12. Worst value for money signing ever probably after Slimani.
  13. Derek McInnes!? Total failure at Bristol City. Nah, you're alright thanks.
  14. Not being a betting man but does this mean that someone has actually put money on Jesse Marsch (25-1) https://www.oddschecker.com/football/football-specials/leicester-city/next-permanent-manager
  15. Can only speculate about what happened during the meeting with Cifuentes if Top's starting point was to keep him on and 'find a solution'. Perhaps Cifuentes said that he can't pull this around without certain players being recruited but he won't resign (due to compo and he might still be recovering the money allegedly paid to QPR). Therefore he had to be replaced with a manager that can and the only way to do that was the sack. Confidence may have also been lost on both sides by then. Don't suppose we'll ever know or actually need to anymore.
  16. The 2020 George Floyd killing was a catalyst for what seemed like the UK, Europe and other places losing it's collective head. These latest killings haven't, so far, sparked a similar response. May be reasons such as the racial element (we don't know the ethnicity of the ICE officer, I think) or population lockdown stir crazy. Or the habitual protester has found other causes to spend their time.
  17. I would've thought that we would be seeing mass protests and widespread civil unrest in the UK following the killing of two people in Minneapolis by law enforcement operatives. Perhaps it doesnt cause as much outrage as it did in 2020?
  18. Would we have considered the apointments made by other Championship clubs recently? Middlesboro.... Kim Hellberg Norwich............Philippe Clement WBA..................Eric Ramsay Clubs that seem to have more vision and knowledge than us. Certainly not the likes of Mowbray or Rowatt!
  19. Not sure why the favour for old dinosaurs like Mowbray and Rowett even on a short term basis. Other Championship clubs (Norwich, Middlesboro, WBA) haven't gone down this route I want to be inspired. The club needs some excitement to lift the storm clouds.
  20. Not seen any mention of Cifuentes assistants also being removed? Unless they are staying on to help Kingy?
  21. Louis Page 'liked' the club Instagram annoucement of the sacking
  22. The hand was far better than the one's that most other Championship managers were dealt.
  23. The interview with Toppo... Leicester City - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/teams/leicester-city
  24. I call that BS. It's Morrisons
