Tickets for this one.. first away trip for a few seasons then a night out in Sheff.

 

What could possibly spoil that by 3pm 😂

[Clever Fox]

We have a great chance to build some momentum with a win against Barnsley and the next game against Wigan.

[StanSP]

The Iain Hume derby 

[Blueman1967]

[LVFox]

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Win.

[foxybaby]

I’ve got 2 spare for this.
 

Thought I’d manage it around a birth… now seems that was unrealistic 😂

 

might have the same issue with Blackpool too if you’re interested in that too

Best Leicester goal I have ever seen scored at this ground and against this club.

I agree. I just missed the 1924 game!

The bog roll you can see just to the left of the goal was nicked from the football special train and thrown onto the pitch by me.

I'm a Leicester fan who happens to live in Plymouth. I've got a Plymouth Argyle season ticket and was at the Argyle match today. Argyle battered Barnsley who were second to every challenge / ball. When they did get into a good position they're shooting / finishing was woeful.

They also like to play tippy tappy from the back with both full backs taking any goal kicks and passing the ball around in the 6 yard box (sound familiar?!)

Barnsley struggled to get out of their own half and when they did it was a hopeful long ball up the pitch.

Argyle pressed them very high up the pitch and outfought them everywhere.

If City are physical and work hard and Barnsley play like today we should be fine (famous last words!)

You said IF

So we’ll lose then coz none of that is this Leicester side currently, may change as the season goes on, in fact hope so BUT not currently

That kind of individual box to box brilliance would be coached out in Martin's possession style.

No one can be sure if it is our strongest team yet but it’s one that I want to see tried and the one on paper I pray is successful

         Anyone but McCarthy

Get rid of the absolute shite so far this season - No McCarthy, Thomas, Souttar, Cullen or Burns

What a night that was when we could see we had a proper team and Jamie would go on and play for England

It could be but it's still listed in the Calendar for 3pm on the 26th Sept.

 

It's just a few back to back wins will breath confidence in the team and create momentum.

[Dan]

Think these might play into our hands.

 

As dreadful as we've been during the last couple of years, I'm noticing we do tend to get results against the better sides in the league. Ipswich and Middlesbrough last year. Stockport and Plymouth so far this.

 

I'm not sure Barnsley are in that sort of category but I think they set up that way a lot of the time. They would be wise here to change it up.

Would be nice however both Wigan and Blackpool officially postponed.

Thanks, that confirms it so. You think someone would update the Events Calendar. That's not too hard to do when many Fans are booking time off work or Booking Travel to games etc.
