Preston 2-1 LCFC - Full Time

[MaidstoneFox]

Hopefully this is the low point of the season. By next weekend, we'll have shifted a few of the 'want aways' and the new Bruno Fernandes will have two assists and a goal.

[Corky]

Good to see that the Facebook nonsense has made its way here. If you don't mind losing or care about results then go ahead. Plenty do and are annoyed at another limp defeat after 12 months of them. That is all.

Even if that is the case then I don't think he's the thick **** in the situation because that's not how you say his name

Well whatever, he knows the fans chant that a lot they have ever since he arrived here. And even if there were boos, his own performances have caused that reaction

[Sunbury Fox]

Obviously the lack of application and effort from the players is the main concern, but I don't think Marti is helping himself with some of his selections. If I've understood it correctly, when we're attacking he wants us to leave just the 2 CBs back with both full backs tucked in high up the pitch to overload the midfield. This is hugely risky football which leaves us highly vulnerable to counter attacks unless we have CBs who are fast and FBs who are good on the ball and quick on the recovery. Playing a left sided defensive combination of Thomas and Vesty is suicidal in this system.

Faes is our best CB, however much that pains you. Not great, but our best by a margin

It doesn't pain me, it just sums up our team and squad that he's our best defender. It's shows how much trouble we are in.

I meant replacing them in the team.

Stoke battered Wednesday.  We squeaked past them.

 

More than a coincidence.

True. Was harsh on Stoke really.

[Bezzanator89]

Only good thing about that was Monga's goalscoring exploits, but even that means nothing in my opinion if we still lose like we did today.

 

Signs don't look good for those that predicted we will be promoted this season. Squad needs a massive refresh, but we are essentially paralysed by our current squad and off-field financial issues. Could be a long season ahead if MC doesn't find the best starting XI quickly.

[MrsJohnMurphy]

Faes is a nob and should be sold, but as much as a car crash defender he is we look so much better attacking with him in the team

[walkerleeds]

Thought we really missed Bobby Decordova-Reid today.

[Yan89]

Preston fan in peace - just popped on to say congratulations on that Monga- he’s a real gem and I’ll be watching on keenly as he develops for you this season.

 

Thought you guys played well today without ever really getting out of first gear, whereas we were redlining the entire match and will probably get mullered by Ipswich as a result.

 

Would've been a different game if winks got on the ball a bit more, and Monga started.. very disappointing showing from some of your big name players though. Thought defence looked shaky & Fatawu was honking. 
 

Thanks for letting us have Dan Iverson back too - I get the need for a keeper with decent feet, but he’s some shot-stopper and it was a shame he never really got a proper chance with you.. especially seeing as Danny Ward was your No. 1 for a while!
 

All the best for the rest of the season anyway

But..but..we scored a last minute goal last week to beat a team of kids who haven't been paid all summer

Explain, im not facebook

I can’t take another season of being emotionally drained. So from now on, my comments around match threads will only be using three phases of Spencer to convey my emotions. 
 

[RowlattsFox]

A really uncomfortable afternoon in the home end although having the opportunity to shout at our useless ***** without being a shit fan was handy. 

 

The consensus around me was that it was the best they've played for ages but I'd say it was more us making them look good. 

 

Also the noise from the away end was pretty rubbish, and sums up where we are as a club.

Schitt trip up with clogged motorway didn’t matter which one you took was a 3.5hr journey god knows how it was for the Leicester based fans?

 

But to be treated to that pile of Shockingly schitt performances all round was a pis5 take to all that fans that travelled North and Limped for ages on a motorway that resembled a car park for large amount of time, Jordan Ayew was poor his corners nearly ended up with the home fans his free kicks were just pathetic he needs to be taken off those duties heard a couple by me saying he was disgracing Vardy’s No9 shirt !

 

So happy for Jeremy Monga scoring his first senior goals he was amazing taking the mick out of the PNE defenders who could only pull his shirt or try to foul him by dragging him down can’t believe this lad is only 16 he is oozing with confidence when on the ball and took his goal well.

 

Not good enough Today we allowed them to boss the game hit us hard with hardly any reply,was also disappointed with the ref who allowed Preston to pull our players down fouling with no actions he didn’t brandish a card till the second half and then missed even more fouls by the home team but all in all a schitt performance by a team who seem to be lacking something maybe a few goals or even a few new signings Top & Rudkin a striker who actually knows how to score ?

Hahaha some of you youngsters got a reality check recently. Many of you jumped on the bandwagon when we won the Premier league, quarter finals of the champions league and won the FA Cup etc. You thought that was the real Leicester City. I got news for you boys. This is the real Leicester City that we are watching right now. You are panicking with one loss. Imagine how you are gonna be after the next 44 matches 😂

This post is complete BS

'it says bars - says he will end up behind bars'

[stu]

Went to the game. Thought we started well and looked hungry for a change, until Jakub’s brain fart. Then the same old weak mentality Leicester came back.
 

The players cannot deal with any setback and have to rely on the manager to change things to get back in the game rather than taking the initiative for themselves.

 

In all honesty I don’t think anyone played badly, but no one other than Monga played well either, which just sums up the whole club currently. It’s just all meh.

 

Monga’s introduction and performance just shows how much the team and fans need new blood in this team. Both had a lift when he came on the pitch and before he did it just felt state.

 

Unfortunately we’ve already seen how this transfer window ends from 3 seasons ago. Those in charge are incapable of doing what is needed to give us a chance in going back up at the first time of asking.

 

We can absolutely write this season off unless we are able to in bodies in to give everyone a new hope and enthusiasm. Without its mid table mediocrity and further decline in the following seasons.

 

Worrying times…

When you have a load of players with a year left this is what happens. Gutless as well as talentless.

 

We’re not going up for a while.

You are right partially. We’re More likely to be going down than going up.

 

[TeamRocket]

Same S*** different league. We defo trying to go down to league 1 ain't we.  If we don't get a front man we are done for.

[Chief Keef]

We need to make sure conceding early goals doesn’t become a habit. Don’t think we’ve really even seen how Marti wants us to approach games properly yet as in both league games we’ve been chasing pretty much the whole game.
 

He seems to be very proactive in changing things and generally I think the changes have worked. But maybe that just suggests these players should be starting in the first place. 
 

You would hope that scoring first would open up a lot of space for our quick wingers to exploit. 

[FoxesTez]

It's just horrible to support us at the minute. Fans jumping on the backs of certain players after one misplaced passed or overhit corner - anything less than perfection and it's a total headloss. The whole place is toxic and I'm really not sure how we arrest this demise. 

[Md9]

Obviously not a great result today luckily it’s only the second league game of the season but we really need to sort it out and quickly . It’s great all the youth coming through but we can’t rely on them every week this season. as good as monga is sooner or later people will double up on him to try keep him out the game . We need a big bast*** in midfield that won’t take any shite and someone to replace Daka. If Faes isn’t going anywhere play him from the start even if he is a c*** hope we get one or 2 in before the window shuts . If we don’t then it’s time to worry
