Every day I think with all the work we need to do, something is happening.

Every day nothing happens.

Can only imagine our starting X1 as noted by previous poster.

I know we are a disgrace and an utter meme, but just because we don't know about it doesn't mean nowt is happening, just a thought

It's hardly giving the fans any hope though at the moment!! 

Maybe everything will take off any day now but I'm doubtful.

Horse racing season isn't it. Everything needs to be rubber stamped by the owner but he's trying to crawl up the arse of Prince William.

5 pages of speculation and criticism  that we already have threads for.

 

I understand the thinking for having an official ins and outs thread but somebody got played here

Looking at your Avatar I'd say you're very familiar with being played.

 

As for the thread I can't control what people choose to post but the thread was meant to be used when we had a new departure or arrival. I guess people are frustrated with nothing happening.

Just put in Chat GPT which strikers to go for in league one that could score goals in this league and came up with this !

 

If Leicester City are building a squad to win promotion from League One, they need strikers who:

• Score 15–25 league goals.
• Can handle the physical side of League One.
• Work hard without the ball.
• Are affordable and realistic.

Here are the players I’d target:

1.

Lorent Tolaj

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

• Excellent movement in the box.
• Clinical finisher.
• Has been linked with Leicester already.
• Could become a 20-goal striker in League One.

2.

Lyndon Dykes

⭐⭐⭐⭐☆

• Powerful target man.
• Proven in the Championship and internationally.
• Leicester have reportedly approached him this summer.
• Would score plenty with good service.

3.

Conor Chaplin

Although more of a second striker, he’d be outstanding in League One.

• Excellent finisher.
• Intelligent movement.
• Promotion specialist.

4.

Ashley Fletcher

• Strong, quick and experienced.
• Knows League One well.
• A realistic, low-cost option.

5.

Johnny Kenny

• Young with a high ceiling.
• Natural goalscorer.
• Could develop into a star with regular minutes.

6.

Lawrence Shankland

• Outstanding finisher.
• Scores consistently wherever he plays.
• Would be expensive but could dominate League One.

Dream strike partnership

• Lorent Tolaj
• Lyndon Dykes

Tolaj provides pace and finishing, while Dykes offers strength, aerial ability and hold-up play—a combination well suited to League One.

Budget option

If Leicester have limited funds:

• Lyndon Dykes (free or low fee)
• Ashley Fletcher

My top five realistic targets

1. Lorent Tolaj
2. Lyndon Dykes
3. Conor Chaplin
4. Johnny Kenny
5. Ashley Fletcher

Signing two from that list should give Leicester enough firepower to challenge for automatic promotion, provided they also create chances consistently from midfield and the wings.

Stop moaning

[Oldblueyes]

Don't worry, all these new season ticket holders can clap on the 8 players that we can muster for the 1st game. Two of whom will be goal keepers and a sub, who is the 12 year old son of the electrician.

Great news guys ! 
Don’t wish for better

Pretty obvious why no signings, you need more earners off the books otherwise we'll breech financial rules again. Our current wages still breech financial rules.

So today is our last day under the 2025/26 PSR regime. Yet despite the transfer window having been open for more than two weeks, we haven't sold a single player. Does this mean we're so confident of avoiding a breach for 25/26 that we're deliberately delaying sales until 1 July onwards to maximise revenue for 2026/27 SCMP? Or have we just decided that it's impossible to avoid a breach so there's no point in trying?

[DesertFox]

Or do they not realize? End of June, you say? 🤔
