darko2k7 Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Sorry....... :crylaugh: :scarf: Actually it all started when I slipped in the odd smiley to break up an other wise wordy post. Then I found myself using more and more, sometimes slipping them into sentences at random. It became so bad that I couldn't leave them alone, they have started to take over my life..... I know it is an affliction and I am doing the best that I can but my spelling is suffering (you should see the tippex on my screen), my grammer is going to pot, even my wife is threatening to leave....... I am going to meetings and doing my best, but it's a long process....... +1 for you sir !
Weller in Tights Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Personally, hoping for a decent win, hate to say it but the rest of the season could be defined by this game. Taking my youngest son and meeting my eldest son (who lives in Derby the poor bugger) at the ground, so it will cost me a small fortune after petrol, drink and food. So please Leicester, give us the win we as fans deserve.

phillo Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 We will win this just put tenner on 3-0 come on get on
goose2010 Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Chris Wood is a doubt tomorrow has a groin injury!
Ely fox Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 We played well against Cardiff, and I am pretty sure those lads will be hurting after that! Plus this one should get the blood flowing being a local affair. I would like to see Knocky play, he could be perfect for a game like this! Let's get behind the lads a roar them to victory! I work in ashby so it's shagger central, I expect a smug look upon my face come Monday morning! C'MON YOU BLUES! I'm not sure that they care as much as you hope they care ...
marbelladave Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 I'm afraid I no longer have any idea of what we are trying to do, the aggressive passing football of early season has virtually disappeared and we have returned to a team of defensively minded battlers, not dissimilar to the 2 seasons of NFP's first tenure. It may be a cliche, but 'reverting to type' seems to be an apt description of our current strategy, our creative players are first hamstrung by onerous defensive duties (see Marshall's recent interview) then left out altogether, if Derby put in a decent performance I wonder where the goals are going to come from, the hoof presumably....... In stark contrast to our fluid attacking style of early season, the first half against a poor and strangely timid Cardiff was as poor as I have seen from City in some years, we can not even take much credit for our better play second half, that came about by Cardiff bringing on wide men and opening up the play. All in all I found our efforts somewhat dispiriting, we battled hard sure enough but is it really too much to expect some proper football too, at the moment, it appears so. Another game like that on saturday and I'm into a darkened room with a bit of Joy Division for company.......
kingfox Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Knockaert is ruled out, due to a family passing, like Dyer a couple of weeks ago.
Jimmy Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 sympathies to him and his family probably guarantees the same starting 11 as the Cardiff game then
Babylon Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 All in all I found our efforts somewhat dispiriting, we battled hard sure enough but is it really too much to expect some proper football too But you were rubbishing our play earlier in the season when we were playing "the aggressive passing football" were you not?
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Apparently Wood is a big doubt as well? Going ot be good this game....

Can't you manage your expectations for a side that is fifth in the table? Btw keep up the anti-emoticon therapy.
RonnieTodger Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Wood and Knocky are out Cue Waghorn & Gallagher!
Corky Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 We'll miss Wood's goalscoring threat, no doubt, but we have had a tendancy to hit it long to him, which hasn't really worked. I would hope, , that we might try and play a bit more tomorrow.
indierich06 Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 But you were rubbishing our play earlier in the season when we were playing "the aggressive passing football" were you not? He's been rubbishing our play all season, full stop.
indierich06 Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 I'm watching this with a Forest fan tomorrow, so it's a must win for me. He's quite conflicted about which one of us he wants to lose more.
foxfanazer Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 I'm watching this with a Forest fan tomorrow, so it's a must win for me. He's quite conflicted about which one of us he wants to lose more. Finally a forest fan admitting they hate us as much as derby!
Callabinho Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 If Konch is back I would play Schlupp on the wing!
Dan Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Finally a forest fan admitting they hate us as much as derby! To be fair I think it's to do with the league table.
Harry - LCFC Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Knockaert's grandmother has died. That's why he's unable to play.
Harry - LCFC Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 I'm not sure that they care as much as you hope they care ... Pearson said the players were "distraught" I looked at the players when they came over to clap the fans and I saw genuine disappointment. Body language conveyed a really unhappy mood. Keane, a loan player, also celebrated his goal quite a lot too, look at the pics on the OS - tell me that isn't passion. Footballers often get criticised for not caring but I really believe we have quite a unique bunch at our club, the vast majority of our players seem to really care and I find that very pleasing. Makes it more enjoyable to support Leicester City.
