  1. Is that higher than tier 4?
  2. Not sure about the Ipswich hype. We finished above them in the past two seasons despite the money they spent.
  3. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c9vdgzrzv3wo Trampoline payments...
  4. Hopefully has a massive release clause to put off other clubs.
  5. Some of you lot are at home by the time I get to the Pork Pie Island traffic jam. 143 miles each way for me. 2.5 to 3 hours but sometimes much longer when they close the motorway for maintenance. Don't think I'll do many night matches this season. I sometimes enjoy the drive home if we've won and listen to the football phone-ins.
  6. And their statue is of him holding the Jules Rimet trophy that he won whilst playing for us! Should've had him holding up the League Cup.
  7. Even at his peak he was never a good passer. Scored a couple of 25 yarders for us but usually very poor at shooting. He will also be missing for AFCON. Must have been a daunting prospect when he first joined having to fill the massive gap left by NGolo Kante. He was brilliant for us until about after we won the FA Cup and has been very average since. Always a guaranteed starter when fit but dropped down the pecking order as he lost form. Very popular player and hope that he does well for you
  8. It's been discussed at length about why we dont honour our past greats but have to say that I'm disappointed the club hasn't named the SK end as the Jamie Vardy Stand
  9. Notts Forest drew with Fiorentina. Couldn't even manage a goal. Shite.
  10. Add to this we have removed on 4 of the top wage earners so should give us a bit of wriggle room.
  11. Just a reminder to make sure that your travel insurance is up to date with everything declared. This current story is very similar to what happened to a relative of mine..... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gz3948ygko
  12. I thought that he was decent under Enzo until he got injured keeping him out for weeks. Loved how much it triggered the diagonal walkers when he signed for us.
  13. Wilfred, Wilfred Ndidi will take the ball off you. It's been a pleasure, Wilf. Always welcome in Leicester. Good luck
  14. Might occupy his executive box on Sunday. Squatters rights and all that.
  15. Only Luke Thomas (and Hamza off the bench) left from the FA Cup win
  16. My mother-in-law doesnt use public transport or drive. She doesnt work. She has money from investments and private pensions on which she pays her tax burden. Her care home is full of self funders, she's not the only one. Not sure why you think that I was taking it as a personal attack on my relative. My point is that not all old people are a drain on public finances. Of course, working age people provide the bulk of tax. Nothing new in that.
  17. Just for balance, I think it worth pointing out that not all old people are a drain on the government finances. My mother-in-law (88) still pays tax and all of her care home fees (around £1,500 per week) herself. She contributes much more to the taxman than many younger people.
  18. Reading the rest of that article they go on about the £80m for Maguire and £60m for Mahrez but forget about the £72m for Fofana.
  19. This one? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cnv7559mdq2o
  20. Was it only £5m? Thought it was more like £15m?
  21. The match experience has been sanitised by broadcasters. The TV audience sees a different product than a match going fan as the sterile Sky offering misses so much as they don't want the controversy. We hear it with the sudden quickening of the commentators voices as they hear a song start up that contains rude words. Don't expect Sky to highlight the trouble given that it doesnt involve one of their favourites. Armchair fans are mostly clueless where fan culture is concerned only getting to see what they want you to see.
  22. There's going to be an empty box at the top of the West Stand/SK4
  23. And a bubble for the spirit level and a bag of sparks.
  24. Barry has spoken... Bannan expects Sheff Wed to play Leicester opener - https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/crm432xy7lko
  25. And Wilf to AFCON, if he stays.
