5000/1 Anniversary Match To Support Local Causes - Saturday 30th May

[EnderbyFox]

 

Get someone who looks at you the way Big Wes looks at #YB29

[Kopic]

Are we streaming this anywhere? At work so cant make use of one of the 700 free tickets they've offered the entire population of Hinckley.

Ugh, this could've (and should've) been so much better. I know it's been said a thousand times already but let me say it a thousand and one. 

 

A realistic 5000/1 team could've been: 

 

Hamer

Simpson

Morgan 

Wasilewski

Huth

Fuchs

Albrighton 

King

Drinkwater 

N Dyer 

Ulloa

 

And the opposition should've absolutely been an "all-stars team". No excuses. 

 

Logan

De Laet

Evans 

St Ledger 

Konchesky 

Knockaert 

Cambiasso

Wellens

L Dyer 

Nugent 

Waghorn 

 

I don't know. I get that not everyone is available but it's testament to the state of the club that, at the very least, we couldn't bring back few ex pros to make up an opposition team.

Doesn't St. Ledger still work as a scout for the club? 

 

Clearly put up a poster in the Seagrave Canteen asking for participants. 

[Corky]

You have got six first teamers from that squad not involved. Take away all the other issues around the club and fan base- you cannot sell this as a genuine event.

[StanSP]

Interesting to see how Ulloa and Ranieri act with each other. Wasn't he quite critical of Ranieri?

The profits are, which there won’t be any.

Wouldn't surprise me if the cowboys at the top invoice the charity for the loss it makes, fairs fair.

Lovely to hear Leo is back. He was a proper striker great with his head and could hold the ball up.

Hang on, we're all missing the one major part of the title win...Gokhan Inler!! If he's not there then it's just not any good. 

He'll be there – you just won't see him.

Would explain why a couple of them have ditched tournaments to play in this 

[LVFox]

Is Top back over for this?

Demarai Gray in attendance???!?!?!? Why didn't you say so?!

Oh shit are tickets still available?

[boots60]

New additions for the "all stars" include Norman Stanley Fletcher, Lenny Godpur, an Anglia TV weatherman & possibly one of The Goodies.

[fox_favourite]

Missing Chilwell as well....the amount of important players missing is ridiculous. Chilwell, Inler it's just not on!

[Unabomber]

Is Pearson going to be there?

Chilwell was one of the young lads standing around the stage when Bocelli was singing........missed oportunity! But to be serious.....No Shinji or even a mention of him?

Don’t you mean 5000 times and you make it 5000 and 1 🫣

If you can separate it from the current times then there is part of me that'll enjoy certain players being back together but it needed to be once Kante, Mahrez and Vardy had retired to be a real event. 

 

I do find it a shame that the fans are so against the club right now, and rightly so, that this kind of even can't be enjoyed for a bit of a laugh.

I would have made the current morons that got us relegated the ball boys for this. Ayew would still fall over.
