Guest ttfn Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Are we the only team with a 100% home record? Blackpool, Cardiff, Hull and Middlesbrough have all won 3 out of 3. We're the only side to have won 4 out of 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arriba Los Zorros Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Winning football AND attractive football, what more can you ask. Currently unstoppable at home and best of all the old Pearson hallmarks of winning once ahead and keeping going despite setbacks seem to be developing. Future looks bright, I feel really positive for the first time this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Fox Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Blackpool, Cardiff, Hull and Middlesbrough have all won 3 out of 3. We're the only side to have won 4 out of 4. Hmm, next week looks like a home banker with our 100% away record and their 100% home record then. Think it's time we got something away, and have a sneaky feeling we will. A win would be amazing, would take a draw though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleolly Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Anyone know what odds a Nugent hat trick were? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casablancas Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 What's with everyone calling in and asking after Beckford? He's not scoring and he's not working for the team. I know Vardy infront of goal is lacking at present, but his all round game appears very well rounded and he don't stop working. I just don't get the Beckford love in !

I just don't get the Beckford love in ! without meaning to be negative - first touch, passing, vision, holding ball up? he works hard but id say he lacks the quality needed in a team challenging for promotion. Still JBs game is by no means 'well rounded' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col city fan Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Best win of the season IMO. We limited a very dangerous Hull side to hardly any chances and could have scored 5. Lots of effort, formation looked great and great finishing with Nuge. Knocky was superb. Very happy today. Now we need to follow it up with an away win.

Mack Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 I had a fear when we didn't get more than one from the early pressure it may come back to haunt us. However we were the better team by far today, and for me that was our best performance of the season by some distance. I'm delighted for Pearson his work has paid off finally in what was a commanding display with only a couple of negatives. Here's to a better away performance next weekend.

whoareyaaa Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Great hatrick and great win today, just shows what this team is capable off but lets not get to carried away just yet but it does look promising, I predicted 3-1 as well so thank me later, HOTstreak.

LanguedocFox Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Last Hat Trick against Hull City 1952. George Arthur Rowley Jr., (21 April 1926 – 19 December 2002), nicknamed "The Gunner" because of his explosive left-foot shot,[1] was an English football player and cricketer. He holds the record for the most goals in the history of English league football, scoring 434 from 619 league games. He was the younger brother of Manchester United legend Jack Rowley. He was shortlisted for inclusion into the English Football Hall of Fame in 2008.[2][3] He holds the club record for the most goals in a single season at both Leicester City and Shrewsbury Town, scoring 44 goals in 42 league matches at Leicester in 1956-57[4] and 38 goals in 43 games for Shrewsbury in 1958-59. He is also Shrewsbury's record league goalscorer with 152 league goals.[5] He is Leicester's second all-time top goalscorer, netting 265 times for the Foxes, 8 goals short of Arthur Chandler's record.[6] Arthur Rowley scored in the first match I ever saw - 4-3 against Grimsby in January 1957, and I was hooked. We got promoted that season, and Rowley scored 44 goals. Following season he only got 20, so they sold him to Shrewsbury. Proving, if proof were needed, that dickheads running football clubs is not a new phenomenon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LanguedocFox Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Good result today and just what we needed. Early days, but definitely better than this time last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom17LCFC Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 LOVED the '2-1 Leicester, in your cup final, in your cup final, 2-1 Leicester' song. Top game as well. Thought everyone looked good, especially Knockaert and Nuge. Sort out the away form, Vardy become a bit more clinical and we're onto a winner here.

ScouseFox Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Fûck yeah. Nugent had 3 chances, scored 3 goals. Left foot, right foot and a header. Perfect. Knockaert continues to be a hero. His general play is pretty good, when he gets some confidence it's a joy to watch (although a bit heart in mouth at times haha). But I just fkin love his general attitude. He's so happy to be out there, to run everywhere and the way he celebrated the winner after he knocked it off the line was heroic. I love him.

Guest Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Well absolutelegend, mack, leicesterpool and a few others must be feeling really stupid just about now. Feels good to be a supporter today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_Loyal Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Great win. Nugent was superb and got the goals. Knocky is a different class, he played wherever he wanted and got the ball countless times. We're onto a winner with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxhateram Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 One of the best bit about today was to just imagine the negative brigade's faces when they saw that Nugent had scored 3, we had won and their bum boy Beckford wasn't even on the bench. Quality result and won in a quality way! Come on the foxes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Much better! Played well, won well. Let's hope we can see more of the same. And....BACK TO BACK WINS!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfox Posted 23 September 2012 Share Posted 23 September 2012 Wasn't nervous about today at all, have every confidence in Leicester at home, another great home performance, definitely the best performance of the season so far. Nugent deserves praise for the hat-trick, as someone said it was the perfect hat-trick, but today is all about Anthony Knockaert for me. Knockaert is seriously incredible, the kid has so much flair it's unreal, never seen a player like it in a Leicester shirt, he has so much confidence in his ability, when we passed him the ball the amount of confidence everyone gained from him was great to see aswell, Knockaert was everywhere today, incredible performance. Also impressed with the central of midfield, thought Matty James played a blinder today, really impressed with him, broke down attacks, linked well with Drinkwater and the strikers. Drinkwater aswell controlled things when James got subbed, defensively he looked much better in the second half. While the defence was incredibly strong, De Laet, St Ledger, Morgan and Konchesky hardly did anything wrong, goal was sloppy and there was a few heart in mouth moments, but Konchesky played a consistent game, Morgan and St Ledger dominated and De Laet had a great second half. All we need now is an away win, the team has confidence and we haven't put in a proper bad performance yet. Well done Leicester!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
