I'd take that.. Not a major fan of Kristiansen, and he's probably is a bit ring rusty, but if it keeps Thomas off the pitch its a plus. The "problem" is that your team selection is potentially quite attack minded, (which i like) and possibly suits our squad better than the possession tippy tappy sh1t so we all know it won't ever happen, as that would take some actual brainpower from someone at the club to implement... 1
HarryDee8 Posted 8 February Posted 8 February Funny how in 6 months, they look like a stronger team then us.

ramboacdc Posted 9 February Posted 9 February Would be nice to see a 90 mins with 11 men to really see what King's management is like. The fight back after the 1st brum goal yesterday gave me hope we can actually attack, but once you are down to 10 men its just damage limitation. 1
Jon the Hat Posted 9 February Posted 9 February I am sure this will be fine. Completely fine. No red cards, no stupid defensive errors, no chasing the game from behind. Just a nice straight forward home win against a struggling side. 3-0. 2
Simonb Posted 9 February Posted 9 February 2-1 win. Theyll absolutely boss the game but I fancy a win here.. then play the under 14s on Saturday in the cup
Popular Post st albans fox Posted 9 February Popular Post Posted 9 February I’ve just had a text about tickets tomorrow apparently £26 with a message ‘back us under the lights’ I’m going to hold out for them to increase their offer to £60 so it covers my petrol 7
oxtonfox Posted 9 February Posted 9 February We just need to get behind the team now. Support Kingy and these confidence shredded players. Protests and booing are not having the effect needed during the match. The chairman won’t be there anyway. Boo and protest afterwards if necessary but we simply have to get something from Tuesday night. 3

In fairness we've spent the majority of these players contracts at Leicester 'getting behind them' and supporting them, in fact I'd say that our fan base has actually supported and 'got behind' these players too much. They get off scot-free and get clapped off the pitch no matter the performances they put in. Enough is enough - on and off the pitch it's a shambles and all these fans constantly saying 'back the lads' or 'get behind them, booing won't help', you're actually one of the biggest parts of the problems at the club now as you'll accept whatever standard is thrown at you from the players on the pitch or the club as a whole. 4

Your right ...Back them for why ?they've got us in this mess with their cant be arsed performances,if they now realise or care about the position we're in and put a shift then yes get behind them otherwise I wouldn't waste my breath.
Livid Posted 9 February Posted 9 February I've managed the last two home games but i'm not sure if i'm up for a rainy February night in Leicester. Feeling a bit Mondayish, it's probably going to be a last minute decision if I go or not.
beepee1984 Posted 9 February Posted 9 February The last time we lost 3 at home in a row in the Championship - Nigel Worthington was our manager Also Nigel Worthington is Brendan Rodgers cousin (just in case you didn't hate that family enough) We'll taken 4 points from our last 11 midweek matches 1 point from the last 5 matches - only Wednesday are worst We are likely to start Luke Thomas And people wonder why Leicester fans are not positive

I though King got them playing quite well in the second half against Charlton too. You know, had the prat not wasted that wonderful opportunity to get a goal back at a pivotal time in the game - who knows how the last 30 would have panned out.
Blueman1967 Posted 9 February Posted 9 February Hope a performance, like the one at Birmingham, before the sending off
LCFCCKEANO Posted 9 February Posted 9 February If we get through half an hour looking decent with ten men and a clean sheet people will get on board, no one dislikes King even if he is struggling, as he should never have been put into this position in the first place. As a squad that was playing in the prem less than 12 months ago, you can expect some shit if you can’t keep the back doors shut for 8 months and haven’t won in 5(?)
SB87_LCFC Posted 9 February Posted 9 February (edited) We are clearly lacking options so I would punt for one of Begovic Aluko Lascelles (c) Nelson Skipp Winks Page Mukasa Fatawu Daka Mavididi 3-4-3 attacking, 4-5-1 defending, with Skip doing the emergency CB in that shape or Begovic Aluko Lascelles Nelson Kristiansen - he owes us a performance as so far he's robbed a living Fatawu Skipp Page Monga Richards Ayew - pains me to say Back to a basic 4-4-2, put it on them and see how they react, Monga and Abdul slightly deeper out of possession but more than capable to play on the counter Ricardo and Thomas dropped, the former had a mare Saturday, Winks as someone said further up is better with energy going off infront of him and causing issues, him and Skipp almost cancel each other out. one way or another we need a result Edited 9 February by SB87_LCFC

Problem is, there is plenty of evidence from on the pitch performances that our fans hostile stance to all things around the club is having an impact on the players. Take Ricardo’s mistake on Saturday for example - an unthinkable one from someone like him; That mistake had nothing to do with his physical condition regardless of whether you think he’s past it or not - that was a mental mistake and that comes from pressure and lack of confidence. Monga is another, who’s performances don’t look as free flowing as they did - and it becomes difficult for a manager to give and young kid minutes if the general stadium atmosphere is less than supportive (even if the abuse isn’t aimed directly at those younger players - because if they see senior players getting stick, then are they not going to play it safe and within themselves as well?). For another example, look at how much better James Justin is doing at Leeds now he’s being used properly and moved away from a set of supporters that were calling him shit on social media every week for the past two years. Now I’m not appealing to you not to protest, “boooo” or shout obscenity towards any of our players etc - you pay for your ticket, you can do what you want. BUT - don’t kid yourself that those sort of actions are not becoming a significant contributing factor to the plight we’re in now and the performances that you are witnessing. The bond between fans and players, the mutual love, that was so powerfully there on that wonderful night in Preston - has gone; and that is a big, big issue for the club. 2

With all due respect these idiots are paid a ridiculous amount of money per week to play a game. To be honest fans don't mind the odd mistake, the issue is just the general lack of effort from some of the senior pros in quite a large number of our games. Now I can be pretty certain that if this squad of players go out and run and press for 90 minutes each game, they wont be anywhere near the bottom 3. Being nervous doesn't stop them trying. Take a player like Jordan James, no one can say he hasnt given his all, the fans can see that, fans will respond to what they get off the players, the bare minimum of effort, mistakes or not being good enough are acceptable if thats where we are, but not trying is unforgivable.
