EnglishOxide Posted 26 January 2016 Posted 26 January 2016 Big fan of Martin Samuel and his comments were fantastic. Plus he rubbished Sky Sports and talked about BT on a Sky Sports show so he's even better in my estimation. He and every other journalist on that show are self important dickheads who deserve no adulation whatsoever. 2
fuchsntf Posted 26 January 2016 Posted 26 January 2016 He and every other journalist on that show are self important dickheads who deserve no adulation whatsoever. Its exactly these programs that make the season. Watching their faces , struggling and stumbling on their Vocab, squirming in their seats, trying to come up with anything sensible. These are the perks of being the under dogs, the unknowns,the dont want to write abouts...
foxes21 Posted 26 January 2016 Posted 26 January 2016 'The team at the top of the BPL at the end of January has gone onto win the title for the past 11 seasons'. What a stat!
Footballwipe Posted 26 January 2016 Posted 26 January 2016 He and every other journalist on that show are self important dickheads who deserve no adulation whatsoever. Well, no. Sunday Supplement is one hell of a patronising show. Top four guff and severe lack of knowledge about anything outside of the top clubs, but Samuel and Winter (who is in a class of his own) who appear are good journalists and have an education on what they're talking about. It's hilarious trying to hear them talk about us earlier in the season, they were struggling badly.
Aus Fox Posted 26 January 2016 Posted 26 January 2016 'The team at the top of the BPL at the end of January has gone onto win the title for the past 11 seasons'. What a stat! We're gonna win the league! We're gonna win the leageu

DJ Barry Hammond Posted 26 January 2016 Posted 26 January 2016 Man city fans have always been rather insightful... good to see that they are applauding us and not giving silly excuses like others That's because they still remember their dark old days - when they too loved Paul Dickov ☺️
holyfox Posted 26 January 2016 Posted 26 January 2016 Both City and Liverpool forums being quite positive about us, we're everyone's second team, even our title competition! Much better than those Utd and Spuds fans
Richmondfox Posted 26 January 2016 Posted 26 January 2016 (edited) It was annoying hearing the press mention our supposed blip, 1 win in 7 was always quoted but there were 2 cup games. In the same run of 5 prem games Arsenal only got 8 points and lost a game. We got 9 points and only conceded 1 goal yet theirs wasn't anything of concern. Ian Wright has always been supportive of us. Savage has changed his tune but the comments are still all the same. We are a Vardy/Mahrez injury away, haven't got the depth in the squad, players could feel the pressure. They squad managed the negative pressure of last season I'm sure they can handle the positive pressure of a title challenge. Edited 26 January 2016 by Richmondfox
DB11 Posted 26 January 2016 Posted 26 January 2016 It started off being all about Mahrez, then Mahrez and Vardy, now people are adding Kante to that list
Vlad the Fox Posted 27 January 2016 Posted 27 January 2016 Drinkwaters in there now and 1 or 2 are starting to notice Fuchs.
DJ Barry Hammond Posted 27 January 2016 Posted 27 January 2016 Drinkwaters in there now and 1 or 2 are starting to notice Fuchs. Wes also gets some Kudos
Vlad the Fox Posted 27 January 2016 Posted 27 January 2016 Wes also gets some Kudos at this rate the so called experts might know 7 or 8 of our players by the end of the season. 1
EnglishOxide Posted 27 January 2016 Posted 27 January 2016 but Samuel and Winter (who is in a class of his own) who appear are good journalists and have an education on what they're talking about. They really really don't. Samuel thinks he's best mates with some managers when it is so not the case. And Winter. Did you see/hear those adverts? What an absolute cvnt. His opinion is worth jack shit to any sane football supporter. You are just a writer mate, not the voice of football.

The Doctor Posted 27 January 2016 Posted 27 January 2016 winter is excellent, knows his stuff and knows how to work with a manager. Not a coincidence he got the best interviews out of pearson who holds modern journalism in contempt.
ScouseFox Posted 27 January 2016 Posted 27 January 2016 mad that I used to have Everton an Liverpool fans sayin they hoped we won the league (the champ) because they weren't competing for it and now they hope we win he league (the prem) cos they aren't competing for that either 1
My Nads Posted 27 January 2016 Posted 27 January 2016 Nice things said about us on the 5Live Daily last night. @27:00 - 34:15 http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03gljkg Nice things, really? It's the same patronising gash as it's been all season. Pundits, ex-footballers and jurnos have been saying good things said about us all season, but after the compliments there's always the...but they wont still be there after this difficult run of games or they could make the top four, but they cant win the league! It's always the same, Arsenal, Man City and now even Spurs can win the league, but we can't because...we're little old Leicester. We're top of the league, so if it's difficult for them to deal with, they can suck it.
Footballwipe Posted 27 January 2016 Posted 27 January 2016 Goodness me Oxide. Take a breath and a calming tablet. Of all the journalists to get wound up by I'm pretty sure Winter is at the bottom of the list. John Cross, Charlie Wyett et al. Froth yourself into a rage at those two who really are arrogant journos with limited knowledge
Captain... Posted 27 January 2016 Posted 27 January 2016 It was annoying hearing the press mention our supposed blip, 1 win in 7 was always quoted but there were 2 cup games.

They squad managed the negative pressure of last season I'm sure they can handle the positive pressure of a title challenge. Arsenal's form has been mentioned quite a few times, but you don't notice it as much as you are Leicester focussed. There has been plenty of chat about how Arsenal (and Man City) are throwing away their best chance of a title in years by making stupid mistakes and dropping points where they shouldn't. The difference is this is how Arsenal have been all season, whereas Leicester have been phenomenal and everyone was expecting our bubble to burst. So our blip (losing one game) was used as evidence for it.
ealingfox Posted 27 January 2016 Posted 27 January 2016 Bloody hell, 26+ pages in a specifically Leicester City thread on that Man City forum . Obsessed much?
Finnaldo Posted 27 January 2016 Posted 27 January 2016 (edited) Bloody hell, 26+ pages in a specifically Leicester City thread on that Man City forum . Obsessed much? Not really a bitter obsession though, a lot of them are quite fair and even the criticism (the few there are) is well-rounded and make sense. Always seem a knowledgeable bunch the Mancs (the proper ones not the plastics) and they seem to get how our team works opposed to the guff some opposition come out with *Sunderland* Edited 27 January 2016 by Finnaldo
