People have genuinely just gone for the football, must say I’m a tiny bit jealous of them seemingly having no responsibilities and just going abroad to watch football at little notice 

Me and my lad have come out to visit southern Spain and watch the football 2 in1!

 

Have to say having the hire car was the game changer as we're staying high up in the mountains and could reach Algericas, Marbella, Málaga or even Seville all under 2 hrs from where we are.

 

I had considered just staying in Algericas in a hotel and feel for those people who have done that - I spoke to a few at the game who had. 

 

On a side note, this part of Spain is off the scale amazing. Especially up here in the mountains, not a person speaks English and the villages are like what you'd expect in a Hollywood portrayal of rural Spain! They're so friendly too.

 

Interestingly the locals where I am all say that Cadiz is the gem and the place to go over anywhere else.

You chat absolutely waffle.

 

Name another big club that's had to cancel / rearrange a friendly because theyve accidently booked a sunday league pitch?

 

Thought not, Tara.

Couldn’t help but smile when I read an article this morning about Brighton cancelling their training camp and tomorrow’s friendly due to pitch concerns.

Hope the hangover is not too bad today, pal.

If that’s the case then yes, I’m jealous too haha. I just struggle to see any benefit of going just solely for watch a preseason game. Competitively then yes, 100% would be annoyed and disappointed at venue changes etc.

Puerto Banus is about as upmarket as it gets on the Costas. You might get a decent pint overlooking the Marina but not going to the cheap. I’d rather the League one club had played maybe Harborough Town and invested the travel costs in a striker

Sounds ideal. Which town are you staying in? Thinking of next year’s holiday.

That would make it even more ridiculous people seem surprised that stuff like this happens? 

 

People know what the club are like. Whether they should/shouldn't act like this is beside the point. 

 

Control what you can control. You can control spending money following Leicester on a L1 pre season tour and saving disappointment should problems occur where the club has a historic track record of putting fans out of pocket. 

 

People need to start taking their own accountability rather than crying about it on an Internet forum.

So your solution is, instead of actually being moved to challenge the club, is to just give up and accept it for what it is?

How much is ham egg and chips? 

 

and is there Wetherspoons and a Greggs? 

[Lesta2014]

Are Malaga streaming this like Cadiz did?

[Tommy G]

I’d rather we play on a pitch that doesn’t aggregate key players for the start of the season, it’s a sensible decision and don’t understand the tears? Just get some estrella glacia down you

Sack him 

[moore_94]

Eleven was made up of players not expected to start vs Genoa

 

City team vs Coventry: Vieites; Aluko, Faes, Souttar, McFarlane; Choudhury, Page, Neale; Carr, Hutchinson, Opoku.

[Ryy]

“Leicester came close to levelling four minutes later after Michael Golding’s effort cannoned off the bar”

[Foxes96]

Reckon we will see the below against Genoa based on that…

                   McCarthy

Joseph - Okoli - Nelson - Thomas 

    Chaplin - Skipp - Braybrooke 

  Alves   -    Cullen    -    Mavididi 

 

 

Edit: forgot about BDCR. If Cullen isn’t deemed ready wonder if we could see Bobby and Chaplin alternating in the false 9 again

[Chelmofox]

But weird. Suppose we won’t see the possible starting 11 then tonight.

Alves not in the squad

[EnderbyFox]

Bit baffled that Joseph is seemingly ahead of Aluko in the pecking order

Knock? Presumably why he was training on his own yesterday? 
 

BDCR at a guess then off the right

More experience, played more league football, looks technical better to me.

Injury?

Someone called Szembel on the bench? Who is that

Won’t Sheffield Utd be a bit peeved when they find out one of their players started for us at centre back in a meaningless friendly today?’
