WetFlannel Posted 5 January 2008 Posted 5 January 2008 Yep we truely sucked, but we managed to turn it all around on a very tight budget just imagine what we could have done with a couple of quid. Yep, like us
Smiffy Posted 5 January 2008 Posted 5 January 2008 Alex Fookin' Ferguson couldn't come to Leicester and turn things around immediately. If anyone thought that bringing in a new manager would solve all citys problems we are a bigger bunch of dilusional fans than rich2704 thinks. We have a couple of threats up front now (as they even showed at times today) we just need people to feed them and new midfield/defense/keeper. Thats all. It will take time!

Thank god theres some sanity left in the world. Indeed! Imagine if we had been in the situation Ollie joined us in when O'Neill joined us? How badly he started - if I recall, we were comfortably in the playoffs when he took over and then only just scraped in at the end, which parallels Ollie exactly, cept it's survival, not promotion he's dicing with!
Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 5 January 2008 Posted 5 January 2008 think of poor Steve Howard...trading in one sack of shit in a higher league for one in the lower league.... please keep us up!!!

I remember the protests after the game calling for O'neill to be sacked.... then look what happened......We will start to see signs of improvement in the next few months but we wont see any vast improvements until next season. I personally didnt want Holloway but i also know the club can only benefit from some stability now
mikelcfc Posted 5 January 2008 Posted 5 January 2008 i said it just after he went back and got slated for it . but anyway, if we dont get fulop back then were down!!!! 2.5/3 million to stay in this league is well worth it

Amen Howard is the right direction - some midfielders that can play and we will get out of this mess. Fulop was another piece of bad luck - but hopefully that will be another problem position filled in January. We might need a central defender as well - an experienced one - someone who shouts - our lot too quiet. Our average acadamy players been getting into the first team for a reason - they were shite.
act smiley Posted 5 January 2008 Posted 5 January 2008 It's a cross between passion and cushion I want one. I don't want a Henderson.
Bluemoon Posted 5 January 2008 Posted 5 January 2008 Holloway cant help it if he's crap. Of course he's going to come have a go at a sleeping giant of a club with premiership facilities, ambitions and a budget to match.I blame Mandaric who clearly isnt all there. Well seeing as you brought up the point, of course Mandaric was also going to come and have a go at a sleeping giant of a club with premiership facilities. When is he going to perform his duty.
Smiffy Posted 5 January 2008 Posted 5 January 2008 We just bought two strikers and looks like we have a winger and a midfielder coming on loan with option to buy. Also, talking of purchasing a few others. We're spending money. Isn't that his duty?
Fox You Forest Posted 5 January 2008 Posted 5 January 2008 so you think ollie has the same pashion as he had when he was at plymouth? he is only here for the money There is no possible way you could tell that unless he has told you directly, Has he?

Perhaps he couldn't do it immediately but he'd have the players behind him and pulling in one direction by Monday morning. There'd be no-one creeping off to the chairman with transfer requests nor anyone questioning the way he chose to run the club. There's only one way with Fergie. You're either with him, win or lose, good or bad, or you're against him and on your way out. But what you also get, if you are with Fergie and you respect his way of doing things, is 100% loyalty in public. It's not always easy to be that single minded. To my mind it's the sign of a good psychologist and of a man who knows he's only going to be good with the trust and backing of the players. And such unbending togetherness is the key to success. If one thing has been missing most if not all of this season at Leicester it is genuine togetherness. I don't mean silly huddles in the middle of the pitch before matches either. I mean the fully established and completely impregnable sense of unity which stands strong and has been seen to stand strong in any circumstances. Precisely how long it's been missing I don't know. But the sooner we get it back the better.
Woopsy Posted 5 January 2008 Posted 5 January 2008 he's doing a bloody good job in my book keep it up twathead.

But the sooner we get it back the better. Unfortunately, thats something I can't argue with. I thought his public thrashing of the team was wrong and would ultimately prove to be a mistake. Hopefully, when he has the players that he wants (whoever they might be) he can begin to bring the lads together.

His openess (if that's a word) about how shit we are and how he's gonna sign new players is the one things he's done I don't agree with.

Yes, but in the meantime he's not performing ( well at least not for City ). It's the old Tony Blair trick.....tell 'em you mean business........and put your feet under the table. SO FAR IT'S BEEN EVERYONE'S FAULT AT THE CLUB....THE PLAYERS....THE CHAIRMAN....THE FANS..... COME OFF IT OLLIE!!.....LOOK IN A MIRROR AND DO BETTER
Foxhateram Posted 5 January 2008 Posted 5 January 2008 'Plymouth for ****s sake' that attitude is why we finish above teams like you and why you are where you are, let me say this slowly YOU ARE NOT A PREMIERSHIP TEAM ANY MORE, YOU ARE NOT WHAT PEOPLE CONSIDER A BIG TEAM ANY MORE, YOU DO NOT HAVE A GOD GIVEN RIGHT TO BEAT SMALLER TEAMS THAN YOU, there you go.Plymouth, yes we are a small team but we dont go out expecting to win or lose we just expect to try our best, maybe your players and managers need to try that. I agree with you in someways. But i also think we need to install some beleif! i think the players are thinking bloody hell we are actually shit, there confidence is low, there mind-set is negative. When they take the lead they shit themselves because retaining a lead!?, i think they have forgoten how to do that! this club is in a state of total disalusion right now. We have a man at the top and "Some" fans who expects miracles A manager who is trying his best and is trying to install some confidence and passion into this team, but there mind-set and negativness that has been installed into there brains by muppet managers and a run of crap seasons and results is proving hard to shake off. We have "SOME" Fans who think we have some sorta god given right to be the bees knees, when we havent at all. Then we have the realsitic and realist fans who actually state very good points, and its a shame the club will never listen to these points. And finally we have Barber who knows fook all about commentating a football match. That just about sums up leicester city right now, we will be a good club under Ollie, its just going to take TIME, PATIENCE, COMMITMENT, REALISM, DETERMINATION,GRIT, and most of all BELEIF!!! We are not going to be magically re-created over night. We are not bigger then anyone else in this league, but they are not bigger then us. Anyone in this league is beatable i dont care what others say. This league is so crap because nearly every team is on par with the other. A game is 11 VS 11 and no-one is supreme to anyone else! You just have to Beleive that!

You see, that's the problem with being on someone else's website. It's a bit like joining in a massive conversation halfway through. I am one of the few who admit that "(we) ARE NOT A PREMIERSHIP TEAM ANY MORE... ARE NOT WHAT PEOPLE CONSIDER A BIG TEAM ANY MORE... DO NOT HAVE A GOD GIVEN RIGHT TO BEAT SMALLER TEAMS THAN (us)" I have mentioned on other threads that same point, that we are bigger off the pitch than we are on the pitch - and that is part of the problem. My whole point was that if Holloway can manage to take a club like Plymouth, which I think you will agree has a small (if loyal) following but has no real financial backing and has to sell players to survive then think what he can do at Leicester with a bigger (if sometimes deluded) following, a multi millionaire chairman and good facilities. I do wish Argyle all the best, and hope that the fans get over losing Holloway soon. If you didn't like him, move on. If you did like him, don't get all sour like a jilted bunny boiler. You seem like an intelligent chap Richie, all the best.
termite111 Posted 6 January 2008 Posted 6 January 2008 once again here goes our FICKLE fans if we win our next game everyone will be talking about promotion again. this season just needs to be righten off and just concentrate on stayin in the championship. our main problem is the shit that martin allen brought in in the summer that some would struggle to get in a league 1 team. we only play a couple that wasn't with the club last year so do you all really expect miracles come on for f**k sake it's not gonna happen. it's not gonna help keep moaning and jeering at home games 5 mins into a fooking home game. ollie isn't gonna be able to make miracle signings in jan because of the inflatted prices that the window brings with it. ollie should be left alone to do his magic in the summer at least he doesn't sign players on high wages and fes that haven't proved themselves he's making them work for it like the latest signing we've made. he wants to stay in england so he's got to earn his permanent transfer BRAVO OLLIE.
