Burton Albion (h) post-match 1-2 defeat

[joeybside]

There are 60 league positions difference between Leicester and Harborough Town.

 

AndI don’t genuinely believe Leicester would have beaten Darlington 4-2 at home with this current set up

[OntarioFox]

The saddest thing for me on reflection is that this should be a hilarious weekend to be a Leicester fan by all metrics. Every one of our "banter" clubs has lost or is well on their way to doing so.

Cov got pasted. Forest shat the bed and lost at home. Man Utd bottling it at Hull, Spurs currently 2 down to Brentford. Even West Ham getting clowned on by Charlton in their massive carbuncle of a stadium.

 

But we can't laugh at any of them with a straight face. We just lost at home to Burton Albion, a week after scraping a draw at Notts County. In competetive League football.

We are the absolute pits.

Luke Thomas is genuinely an awful footballer. I’ve reached my absolute limit.

 

I've got a mate called Brenny. He's 47 years old now, but he's still a million times better than Luke Thomas. The bloke plays left back in a pair of Sambas, has a roll up fag at half-time, and still has a wand of a left foot that puts Luke Thomas to shame. 

 

To top it all off, he once had to fill in at centre mid for a friendly and completely bossed the game. Swear down, he looked like prime Pirlo just gliding around the pitch.

You've got a really long limit, I respect you!

 

He should have played his last game for us 4 years ago. Our worst ever player, will crack open a beer when he leaves for good....in 2/3 years time or whenever that ludicrous contract we gave him ends.

i know hamza isnt very popular here but honestly id have him starting over skipp, at least he has energy and makes tackles 

100% didn’t do much wrong today and, unlike the rest of the experienced ones looked quick enough and strong enough against their muscular approach.

[Ian Nacho]

There's something poetic about Russell Martin being the final straw of us going bust. 

[adam]

Any of the players  who was part of last seasons disaster need to be ****ed off. Same old willy pullers letting us down every single week. 

Anyone with half a brain knew the Martin appointment would be a disaster and after 2 games they have been proven right.

Remember we sent Hamza on loan to Burton when he wasn't good enough for us, now he plays for us when we lose to them. What another all time low.

At least he had a go which couldn’t be said for the majority of the others

I was at a gathering today, fans of various clubs, and you know things aren’t good when they’re not taking the piss, they were genuinely shocked when they heard the score, and empathetic…… things are as worse as they’ve ever been, and they’re going to get worse.

I used to watch Burton quite a bit when they were playing at the same level as Harborough.

 

This defence is so bad it probably is National North level. I’d take Liam Moore currently who is also playing at that level now.

[Chelmofox]

1 shot on Target 2nd half. 1!

 

And that was a pretty tepid free kick.

So glad I'm retired with a much lower social circle. Don't miss the Monday morning analysis of the weekend matches. Would have nothing positive to say about our club to fans of other teams 

[ozvaldo]

Playing football the Top and Rudkin way. 
 

We look atrocious. 
 

No fight. 
No energy. 
No creativity. 
No other attacking option after we took Admir off. 
 

I said it before the season and I’ll say it again, we’ll do well to finish mid table with this bunch. 
 

[Chelmofox]

With the exception of Burns, its the senior players once again that let us down.

 

McCarthy, Skipp, Souttar, Okoli, Okoli (mentioned twice because so bad), Bobby, Thomas and Cullen all abject today. Whilst Aluko (not as assured as JJ) defending with energy, Brayebrooke putting in a shift and Alves quality.

 

What do we have to do to bin the senior nob heads.

No, I was at Harlow.

Its not a slight on him, just the situation. 

[kingpowerout]

Any idea what Cullen is supposed to be? 
 

I haven’t got a fking clue based on the first 2 games 

[Wink84]

Can't believe i am saying this, but is it actually possible we could go down? I say this as I didn't think that was possible last season but here we are.

I genuinely think we are nearer the bottom than the top come Christmas.

Alex McCarthy, the most unlikeable LCFC goalkeeper ever? Arrogance personified.

 

Also, Liam Cullen... Who?

 

 

Cullen is going to be our new invisible man, replacing BDR , who despite being very innocuous is slightly more visible. Slightly.

We create barely any chances. Chasing the game today we had 1 (ONE!) shot on target 2nd half, even when we had a period of 20mins when we were all over them.

 

Those sorts of stats tell us we arent gonna score, and Martins teams always conceed.

 

Its going to be a very rough Autumn.

[CrazyKopCorner]

I wonder if Martin ever has any self awareness and realises he's a ****ing abysmal manager

Of our current squad, in this division, he'd be my first name on the team sheet. I know that's a couple of low bars, but it's still true.
