We're going to get ****ing battered then **** happy clapping West stand flask drinking gimps like @Gamble92 will come on here and say "We are where we are."

 

Rince and repeat.

Don’t care

I want to see what Marti’s style is, I’m still waiting. Most of the time it’s cautious safety first stuff but then we get stupid attempts at passes that were never likely to come off when we have no cover and gift goals that way. Full backs don’t overlap, particularly LB, if this is for security OK but we’re still caught on the break and short of numbers, it’s not like we’re coming away with clean sheet after clean sheet.

 

Every other team look fitter and stronger than us and Vestergaard excepted bigger than us but I won’t blame Marti for that short of bringing in a stretching rack to Seagrave.

 

What is he trying to do, what is he working towards? The only real pattern to emerge is subbing James when he’s playing well. 
They double up on Fatawu? Fine, that leaves someone else with more space to utilise. If it’s their LW then Ricardo, if it’s a CM then one of our midfielders? 
 

And who gives Vestergaard license to waddle into the opposition half in open play. It’s like driving your gran to Nottingham to go shopping and making her walk home. Your mother in law maybe but you wouldn’t do that to your gran! Even though she would still be back quicker than he was for the 2nd goal at Southampton.

I will watch because I enjoy punishing myself. 
 

Can see a heavy defeat and it all turns ugly. 
 

Would like to see Monga start today. Feel like we haven’t see him in forever.

It’s the slow play allowing the opposition to sit deep. lack of overlaps and support that annoys me every week and nothing changes. You could forgive a preseason game but not this far into the season.  Don’t they watch replays, heat maps or have an actual clue.
 

I posted the highlights in the Abdul thread.  Aluko, but could be anyone, just stands watching Mav with two players on him with so much space ahead.  When he does run into space at the second attempt, Mav ignores him. 

 

This lack of play, greed and JV always being out of position and unable to tackle anyone or read danger.

 

Their second goal after they fouled Abdul, our players were standing crying and their winger was already on his bike ready for a quick pass into space.

You can currently get 8x440ml cans of Budvar for £10 at Morrisons if anyone wants a better day?

I was thinking about a 3L bottle of White Lightning Cider 😅

Remember  the O Neil Sheff its game when it turned ugly and then all changed for the better.

 

Here's hoping for the later bit...🤞🤞

[The Leicester Badger]

Its a shame Daka has used up his yearly goal allowance, we could do with one more goal from him before the end of the season.

Can I just point out he's baiting me here and I'm the absolute opposite of a happy clapping flask drinker.

 

You'll be hearing from my lawyers Ed.

We know our performances aren't acceptable and the supporters deserve so much better.

We need to continue to work hard in training and pull together to get ourselves where we need to be.

 

This will be a player statement after tomorrows match.

Well I was close 😅😅😅

Why are you getting so wound up about other people’s actions? I’m frustrated and angry about the performance of the team and the manager. Just because some supporters feel they are supporting the team by clapping is up to them. Others choose to boo or shout the players aren’t fit to wear the shirt. Do your thing…and appreciate that we are are a broad church. We all do things differently.
