Geo V Posted 4 February 2008 Posted 4 February 2008 I think he was probably abit down after Radio Leicester let some of our 'Brains of Leicester' on first.Im sure the first question was"why aint we signed er Fulop"??? Cos the transfer window closed afew days ago cvnt! But on the whole Ollie knows this club has been in the shite for 4 years and it aint gonna get better in a few months is it? I liked the way he indirectly slagged off the 14 odd summer signings which has left the club even more in the shite! He KNOWS we have big problems and atleast he isnt trying to hide them or not come out defend himself. I think he realises what a tough job he has here. I think he now realizes mate but he definitely didn't realize how dour the outlook was when he got here. I think he has also been taken aback by the negativity and the fact that ten weeks in we are not backing him and that seems to have made him feel a bit down. I was delighted he slagged off the players because these tosspots need to stop feeling sorry for themselves and start playing to their ability. I don't mind us losing as long as the players have tried and they come off the pitch looking shattered, not like they haven't even broken sweat! Anyway, I may be in the minority if that phone in is anything to go by but I think by the end of the season we would have stayed up, be solid enough and have the nucleus of the squad that will be both organized and settled for the start of the season and potential additions will be made in the summer to take us up a level. I back Ollie so lets get on that fookin Bus again
WetFlannel Posted 4 February 2008 Posted 4 February 2008 I back Ollie so lets get on that fookin Bus again I say we burn the bus.
Geo V Posted 4 February 2008 Posted 4 February 2008 I say we burn the bus. Shocking behaviour, especially after I just ordered a new batch of loose women and no, I don't mean them old hags on ITV.
Rich Fox Posted 4 February 2008 Posted 4 February 2008 I'm fed up with the amount of negativity from Ian Holloway. It's been ten weeks now and it's about time he took on some responsibility. The man could be a politician with the way he turns things around and uses the players/the pitch/the weather/the transfer window/the ref/the FA as a scapegoatOllie - you talk about bringing positivity to the club but all you do is moan about the players you have inherited! How is that going to lift spirits? Can someone please post him a DVD of the Watford game to show him it is not new players we need - just someone who can lead them and manage them! And stop talking about players having pride in their shirt when you're loaning out and dropping all our young players and replacing them with 'experienced' players who will need replaced next year and couldn't give a sh*t about leicester, only making a bit of money before their careers are over. It's simple: Don't loan out Mattock - he's one of the few players we have who isn't scared to run at players so get him further foward again Get Hume and Fryatt up front - the pair are technical and have some pace - they don't just wait for a ball to fall out of the air like all these target men that get brought in (how many have i seen these over-rated 6'5'' strikers come and go - stick with the tried and tested method) - even under Megson's shocking tactics and dreadful playing Hume and Fryatt were scoring goals so get them back up there! Keep these young Hungarian wingers on the wing And finally, get your ****ing wallet out and get Fulop. The lad is only 24 and rivals most Premiership keepers - If you get him on a long contract i guarantee you will make at least £3M if you were to sell him at the end of his contract. You say it will take time to get this club working - but by the time it is most of these players you have brought it will be at the end of their career. The future is in the youth - the players who actually care about this club. You should becomea regular on radio leicester you would fit in well

I back Ollie so lets get on that fookin Bus again I actually agree with everything you have said!!!! However that doesnt mean i cant call you an offencive word. So here it is......tit!!!!
Geo V Posted 4 February 2008 Posted 4 February 2008 I actually agree with everything you have said!!!!However that doesnt mean i cant call you an offencive word. So here it is......tit!!!! you have called me worse! BTW Joe and the pic of the bus!! Back to Ollie, lets really make him feel we love him starting against Ply Muff.
Raj Posted 4 February 2008 Posted 4 February 2008 The Optimistic Bus. :crylaugh: Unfortunately Joe...you are probably right!!!!
Samilktray Posted 4 February 2008 Posted 4 February 2008 I think Fryatt is the all around striker at the club and with better service could easily be a 20 goal a season striker. Can hold it up, take people on and get in good poistions. He has a footballing brain and you can't teach the way he plays the game. DJ is not good enough, some non league striker scored a few at brentford and flopped at b-ham. Scored 10 league goal last year. If fryatt was in that team with that kinda service he would easily got more. We lose Fryatt and watch him go somewhere like Preston and start banging in the goals. The lad has got it. Just needs to start showing it. Oh dear. I wish some people would realise that Fryatt isnt as good as some people think he is. Hes a pathetic striker for us.
Super Arj Posted 4 February 2008 Posted 4 February 2008 nothings wrong with the players, formation, chairman, manager its just the morale is like a rolercoaster at leicester they go high but suddenly drop for no reason some things money cant buy
Thracian Posted 4 February 2008 Posted 4 February 2008 The proof of my own eyes tells me we're winning games at home for the first time in five or six years. We're not playing any better at home than when we drew against Cardiff and we're losing away with barely a whisper now. You do make loads of sense most of the time about football but you'll be perfect in politics cos you just ignore what you don't want to see. I'm just glad I gave the PR exercise a miss. There are no excuses for so much of what's happened this season. And he can offer as much passion as he likes but Holloway has presided over his own share of the endless accumulation of daft decisions we've made this season and none of his banter will change that. I won't list chapter and verse because he's been no worse than anyone else and he's got a stack of problems no-one should envy and no-one would find easy to put right in the circumstances. But to date, too much of what Holloway says is not easy to equate with what he does, so I don't see much point in listening to him. All I want to see is evidence on the field that things are changing for the better. So far I've seen little.
Hullfox Posted 4 February 2008 Posted 4 February 2008 As a Chartered Accountant I will let that one go over my head. I'm fed up with the amount of negativity from Ian Holloway.And finally, get your ****ing wallet out and get Fulop. The lad is only 24 and rivals most Premiership keepers - If you get him on a long contract i guarantee you will make at least £3M if you were to sell him at the end of his contract. Well, I for one am glad that you're not my accountant with business awareness like that. Surely you should understand that the money does not come from Holloway's wallet and if you tried selling any player at the end of his contract, you are not going to make any money at all let alone a £3m profit.
Geo V Posted 4 February 2008 Posted 4 February 2008 We're not playing any better at home than when we drew against Cardiff and we're losing away with barely a whisper. So you would prefer we played well and lost at home instead? How many times over the months have we dominated teams and got done by a sucker punch??!! Lets just hope we continue to win on our dodgy pitch without seeking utopia (no thats not another Hungarian )
Chrysalis Posted 5 February 2008 Posted 5 February 2008 Fulop - I agree we should have paid 3 million a long term investment and a proven goalkeeper for our team. Howard/Hayles - Cant argue with facts they scoring goals and from what I hear they also working hard so deserve their places in the team, fryatt and hume are young so what, been young shouldnt be enough to get you in the team. Youth teams are for future building, the 1st team needs results now. I expect fryatt to be gone in the summer either on loan or sold. I think we will keep hume tho. People forget we had players like dickov in our last promotion team who was experienced not young.

People forget we had players like dickov in our last promotion team who was experienced not young. The main way clubs like Derby and Sunderland got promoted last season was by buying decent quality Premiership players who couldn't play for there then Premiership clubs are were available. Those sides weren't full of young players but they both had one or two decent youngsters but you need quite a bit of experience to guide you out of this hell hole so I think I am agreeing with you

How many times over the months have we dominated teams and got done by a sucker punch??!! Lets just hope we continue to win on our dodgy pitch without seeking utopia (no thats not another Hungarian ) Don't start being silly GeoV. I'll take good fortune like the next bloke but it won't blind me to the way we're playing and the run of better results at home is only being seriously negated by the run of awful results on our travels. No-one denies that you can grind out results and be grateful but however often people deny it or ignore it, sooner or later we have to play well and score goals if we're ever going to be successful. It's what successful teams do mostly. So I'd prefer that we won AND played well. Managing is not just about results it's about rousing the fans, putting bums on seats and making more and more people want to watch you. I sometimes think the dourists are happy with any sort of football so they can keep the club to themselves and show the world how they can suffer and still be supportive.
LeeCovFox Posted 5 February 2008 Posted 5 February 2008 Oh dear. I'm just listening to yesterday evenong's phone in. We really do have some retards for fans.
Thracian Posted 5 February 2008 Posted 5 February 2008 Seriously do you watch games? what have you been smoking? I could have done with something strong to have dulled the senses during the Blackpool game, especially the first five minutes and the last. Barbars might have done the trick but they don't sell it there.
Ultra Posted 5 February 2008 Posted 5 February 2008 Radio Leicester have their own chosen pool of regulars. And yes, they are absolute cretins - notably "Andy from Long Eaton" and that empty-headed loudmouth Glenn Stewart. But it's clear why this sad bunch continually command airtime. Next to them, Jon Barber can almost seem like the voice of sanity and reason.

Triple-strength absinthe wouldn't have been enough for much of the Blackpool game. Or indeed, ANY of the away trips City have had this year..
LeeCovFox Posted 5 February 2008 Posted 5 February 2008 Oh this is embarrassing. I'm actually surprised he hasn't decided we are a lost cause after this.
Raj Posted 5 February 2008 Posted 5 February 2008 Oh this is embarrassing. I'm actually surprised he hasn't decided we are a lost cause after this. Now you know why he sounds SO fcuking negative!!! makes you feel proud to be Lester fan duntit!!!
LeeCovFox Posted 5 February 2008 Posted 5 February 2008 I'm honestly struggling to listen. Some prat has phoned up and asked why Ollie hasn't implemented the changes that the caller suggested in a letter. Roland apparently. Is he the new Andy from Long Eaton?
teblin Posted 5 February 2008 Posted 5 February 2008 Did that danny "yamean" ring twice?? sorry if this has been posted listening on listen again.
