Matt Posted 23 October 2007 Posted 23 October 2007 Right i've been a pissed off City fan for a few years now like many, there's pissed off and there's a different level, currently i'm on the different level, i've not felt this way to many times, infact I can only remember being this pissed off once in the past and that was Leicester City v Leeds United with Garry Parker in charge (Temporary Charge just after Peter Taylor had been sacked) think it was a cup match that was lost about 6-0 or something, it was the fact we'd lost it was just Peter Taylor had fuked us up, we were going no where, e.t.c, just all built up and it took me to the edge! Well I feel like it again, not sure if anyone else is this way but i'm almost ready to turn my back on City...But I ain't got the heart, and that's the fuking annoying part, however much City annoy me or how pissed off I am I cannot stop going, It's been a waste of money for 4/5+ years now, but i'm still throwing it down the drain. At this current moment, I ready to say fuk it i'm not going Saturday, but I know i'll still be there
JoeyB Posted 23 October 2007 Posted 23 October 2007 I agree, WE ARE SHITE! there was no passion, desire to play football it was hoofball, and fryatt and John are not going to win headers, if we are going to beat teams we will do it by quick sharpe passing football! not fooking hoofball! yes our defence is good, but we need a rwb, a creative cm and a 20 goal a season man before we even get near enough the top 12 let alone promotion! NEwton is a waste of space! TBH i say we all go and support Hinkly would be more enjoyable i bet!
Tommeh Posted 23 October 2007 Posted 23 October 2007 I can think of so many more things I'd rather do than go on saturday, but of course earlier I booked a train ticket didnt I? 12:30 out of London to Leicester cutting short a few days away in the capital just to return for Barnsley at home Highlight of tonight for me was Kilworth fox saying what he'd like to do to Shaun Newton. It was amusing but no offence mate you could have said that anywhere as opposed to me buying a £260 fcking ST (yet again) and telling me in the ground.
danny. Posted 23 October 2007 Posted 23 October 2007 if we are going to beat teams we will do it by quick sharpe passing football! good idea, but.. we have no midfield. Out of 40+ players.
JoeyB Posted 23 October 2007 Posted 23 October 2007 good idea, but.. we have no midfield. Out of 40+ players. Clem and Weso together can be the best cm paring in the league! clem has the experience, weso has the desire, speed and tenacity needed, they can both pass and tackle! all we need are wingers
Bluefoxtim Posted 23 October 2007 Posted 23 October 2007 Clem and Weso together can be the best cm paring in the league! ...We also have one of the best defensive pairings in the league, right? Guess we are at the foot of the table for no reason.

Nod.E Posted 23 October 2007 Posted 23 October 2007 I am the same. I was with 3 mates at the game tonight. Final whistle went and i was off. We left the ground at the same time. Yet i got to the bus 5 minutes earlier than any of them. I was not happy one bit. Why is it that when we play well we hit the post several times and the Ref makes a bad decision that changes the game. But then we play a shit team and we just do shite! I don't know what it is about City that just makes us not win no matter what the situation. I enjoyed the journey home and the round of toast i had when i got home more than the match itself. And we have a shit toaster so thats saying something. I am sick of supporting the team that WERE. Or the team that COULD BE. Ive been born into the shit end of Leicester's history. Well i couldnt really live the good days when i was younger really.

At this current moment, I ready to say fuk it i'm not going Saturday, but I know i'll still be there [/quote Im Starting to get equally frustrated as a city fan, it`s bad enough the amount of muppets weve had in charge of this club and allowed to spend money on players who clearly don`t earn the right to wear the shirt. Starting to loose a lot of heart as a city Fan and as much as mandaric goes on about us being a family and all that crap i think he has made a mistake in getting megson in. Can he honestly admit he is happy with results so far? drawing and getting a 2-0 result against sheff wed who are a poor side. We should be much harder to beat at home and yet team`s come here and get results against us with ease, oh and just to add i saw newton play for the first time for leicester against s****horpe and he is the biggest waste of space i have seen in a leicester shirt. What has happened to the sort of characters and passion this club used to stand for under o`neil for 4 years this club hasn`t moved in the right direction. Mistakes are being made far to often at this club with the buying of players and if u looked at our shape against scunny we are clearly laking wingers and a target man, are we in store for another relegation battle already? at this rate we won`t make the play off`s and my bet is watford are certain to get promoted as champion`s.
PAULCFC Posted 23 October 2007 Posted 23 October 2007 Echo all the things above.I said last year that i wouldn't get a st this year,but with MA11 coming in and Mandy at the helm i didn't want to miss the season that we sweep all before us and go up. How wrong could i have been!Even in the days watching Levein,Adams and Kellys sides i used to get excited about going to a game.Now it's got to the point where i'm going to miss the Barnsley game to do overtime at work and give my ticket to a workmate who hasn't been down this season.......At least i'm fairly sure of getting them back!
Bert Posted 23 October 2007 Posted 23 October 2007 Megson clearly cannot motivate the team. That's the main problem.
Vardinhio Posted 23 October 2007 Posted 23 October 2007 Don't jump to conclusions with regards to Megson. Think of it this way, if we had won tonight we'd all be talking about playoffs in reach etc etc. What a difference a goal makes! but we've got to put things in perspective. We arn't that good anymore...so it is gonna take a while for ANYONE to turn this club around. Never underestimate the value of an established side at levels below the premiership. We havn't had a solid team for about 4 years and we wont improve until that happens. Collins John didn't come to us because he wants to further his career. Clearly if he's not getting a look in at Fulham that should tell us all something, and Lawrie Sanchez knows a hell of a lot more about his potential than we do. Sorry for the depressing post, but I think we're all guilty of jumping on results because we quite frankly these days probably expect too much.
FilboFox Posted 23 October 2007 Posted 23 October 2007 All will change soon... this Halloween will be a sudden transformation of the Leicester City team and following a surprise performance against Chelsea, we are going to move swiftly up the table. Mark my words. They may well come back to haunt you!

Sorry for the depressing post, but I think we're all guilty of jumping on results because we quite frankly these days probably expect too much. Agreed... we are a crap team now. We don't have much chance of promotion however... I think it's down to the players who just aren't playing well enough. We have the ability there and if used properly should be able to see us up there! I don't know where it is going wrong.
DanTheFoxBhoy Posted 23 October 2007 Posted 23 October 2007 I'm more disappointed than angry - I suppose I'm lucky I don't have to sit through these shit games. I never really had an expectation of fabulous things this season, I still think we can get in a top 10 finish once we get a bit of continuity this season. Continuity is something we can hope for, right? If we don't trump Barnsley on the weekend I'll be worried. Not only because it's Barnsley at home, but also because the boys need to be feeling good about themselves going to Stamford Bridge
Nod.E Posted 24 October 2007 Posted 24 October 2007 Its at a time like this when your missus/girlfriend/mum says "Its only a game" or "you can't win them all" This is called the straw that broke the camels back. personally i go fckin mental

Sorry for the depressing post, but I think we're all guilty of jumping on results because we quite frankly these days probably expect too much. Forest fans were saying the exact same when we had Megson, trust me. Under Calderwood guidance (who lets face it, is a numpty himself), but with the majority of Megson's squad, bar a 'keeper and striker, we got to the play-offs and narrowly missed out on promotion. Under Megson, we were near to being relegated for the second season in succession. You've at least got a wealthy investor and Championship status, we're having to rebuild from League One and are struggling to get out of it. I promise you, get a semi-competent manager in and the pile of shit that you have now may turn into a bit of fairy dust (not much mind). For what it's worth, I reckon Calderwood's a million times the manager Megson is, which says it all really.

SOCCERROO FOX Posted 24 October 2007 Posted 24 October 2007 I Might be angry but I'M LEICESTER TIL I DIE I'M LEICESTER TIL I DIE...............repeat and repeat until it makes you cry
Geo V Posted 24 October 2007 Posted 24 October 2007 I could live with shite footy, even hoofball and eight defenders, 5 rbs or whatever as long as we were winning. The fact is we aren't winning and either GM has to change his style or, well, I dont want to say but I will, fook off to Bolton.

The fact is we aren't winning and either GM has to change his style or, well, I dont want to say but I will, fook off to Bolton. Fact is its hard to actually win when our main objective seems to be 'Hard to Beat'. Getting sick of that term its about time we actually showed some intent on winning football matches instead of shutting up shop for 90+ minutes hoping to nick a goal.

We need to scrap the plan it is obviously not working ultra defensive tatics aren't working 4-4-2, 4-4-2, 4-4-2, 4-4-2..........
Chairman of the Bored Posted 24 October 2007 Posted 24 October 2007 Last night's performance was verging on the criminal. Megson said we worked hard, fair enough, Weso pulled his weight but others ran around like headless chickens against a surpisngly poor Sheff Utd team (actually not surpising when you consdier who their manager is). No shape, no tactical plan, no closing down, very little at all in fact. To make matters worse it looks like Clemence has a long term injury. Possibly one of the worst performances I have witnessed in the last 25 years (and that's saying something when you think Taylor, Levein etc). A midfield with Chambers and Newton looked so ordinary it was painful. The only positive right now is that Hume will be back Saturday. The overwhelming negative is Mandaric and Megson. The former's strategic decision making/taking is sadly lacking, how he was lucky to have had a half decent manager at Pooroldpompey in Harry Redknapp. As for Megson's ability to get the best out of the players, if last night was the evidence, heaven help us. Another gradgrind of a season in prospect. Disappointment writ large.
