Corky Posted 2 January 2014 Posted 2 January 2014 According to my mate K Phillips was saying on Talksport that he still lives in the Midlands and is looking for a club closer to home Shame for him that Lamby isn't his agent, he'd have every club from Watford to Newcastle to pick from.
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 2 January 2014 Posted 2 January 2014 You can just see it now: Stringer- "It's the 90th minute here just incase you're tuning into a Radio Leicester and the foxes find themselves searching for a goal to send them up as champions against Doncaster! Leicester are about to bring Kevin Phillips on, Al, what'd you think to that?" Young- "Well, he hasunt impressed me at all this season, Eeyan. I think we'll see this end in a drawuh" *2 minutes elapse of four added time, Drinkwater robs Ritchie Wellens after the former fox dwells on the ball (some May say he's slowing the game down)* Stringer- "Here comes Drinkwater now, he's slipped in Taylor- Fletcher...Across for Kevin Phillips... ITS THEREEEEEEEEEE" This
Babylon Posted 2 January 2014 Posted 2 January 2014 For a start, anyone else who may be interested in Phillips now knows that Leicester are after him and that he's probably going to sign for us if they don't move quick. Even if Redknapp has no interest in him himself it means that it could jeopardise our attempts to get him. Alternatively, the other way of looking at it is that it's a bit of a nod to Phillips that QPR want him ("we need more strikers... I think Phillips is going to Leicester" - i.e. "I need a new striker and I don't think I'll be able to get Phillips as he's going to Leicester... or is he?!... Ah, Kevin's agent, hello...") Either way, it's completely unneccesary for him to be talking about deals that other clubs are doing and smacks majorly of a lack of class and dignity. Pearson would never do the same to Redknapp. So rather than just pick up the phone to his agent, he plays some weird media game to get a call from his agent. Unlikely. As for the first point, maybe. But Phillips will not be a starter for any top 10 team in this league. Realistically we aren't going to be in a major battle for him.
Nick Posted 2 January 2014 Posted 2 January 2014 It's just Harry telling his Chairman he's dropping out the race because he needs cover for Austin - and preferably the choice from four fit strikers.
TrentFox Posted 2 January 2014 Posted 2 January 2014 According to my mate K Phillips was saying on Talksport that he still lives in the Midlands and is looking for a club closer to homeThe British legion ??
Tielemans63 Posted 2 January 2014 Posted 2 January 2014 Whatever the situation he shouldn't be talking about other club's transfer dealings. It's none of his business and is massively unprofessional. Also, on a separate point, if 'Arry had a stroke- how would anyone tell?
Mickey O'Neil Posted 2 January 2014 Posted 2 January 2014 I was going to bring up the Birmingham friendly from a couple (?) of seasons ago. Thracian has already said what I was going to say. When I think of TRUE pro's, KP is one of the first footballers I think of. I'd be chuffed if he was offered a coaching roll here if he decides to hang up his boots this year. Please happen.
Bert Posted 2 January 2014 Posted 2 January 2014 Could someone please explain why this is mind games, or clever from Redknapp? The only strikers getting "upset" about this, are going to the ones who are already a bit fed up of not playing. A 40 year old on a 5 month contract is hardly going to get our first choice strikers quaking in their boots about their place. The twitchy twit isn't smart enough to play mind games, and if this is his best shot then I think we can all sleep safely. To let other clubs know that he's available to potentially stop us signing him? He wouldn't have just come out with this for the sake it, there's obviously something behind him doing this.
Tuna Posted 3 January 2014 Posted 3 January 2014 Pathetic mind games. Besides, we have 6 strikers already - SCHLUPP, VARDY, GTF, NUGE, WAGHORN and WOOD.

He wouldn't have just come out with this for the sake it, there's obviously something behind him doing this. I think they would all know. Was in most daily's when he quit palace. Also his agent will have spoken to most clubs in the mids about him.
orangecity23 Posted 3 January 2014 Posted 3 January 2014 You can just see it now: Stringer- "It's the 90th minute here just in case you're tuning into a Radio Leicester and the foxes find themselves searching for a goal to send them up as champions against Doncaster! Leicester are about to bring Kevin Phillips on, Al, what'd you think to that?" Young- "Well, he hasunt impressed me at all this season, Eeyan. I think we'll see this end in a drawuh" Stringer - Only 2 minutes remaining, the score is still 1-1, Nugent with a penalty giving the foxes the lead, Theo Robinson with the equaliser for Donny. Alan, who'd be your man of the match? Young- I don't know. I'll have to think aboot that one. Stringer - Just to remind you that you can call the phone in after the game, should Nigel Pearson be sacked? What would you do if Anthony Knockaert gets sold to a Premier League club? Call in on 0116 2511049, or text 'shit stirrer' to 81333. Jason Bourne is standing by to take your calls. Drinkwater on the ball in midfield, 20 seconds to go, you are missing nothing here. Young - I'd give it to Kaspar Schmeichal, he's had a good game. Stringer - So Kaspar your man of the match? Young - Ay, by a long way. Although 2 or three other players could have got it also. Stringer - Doncaster on the ball here, and time is running out for the Foxes, don't forget the phone in number is 0116 2511049, get your calls in now. (note - no mention of how the possession changed here) Stringer - Just having a goal flash here looks like a late goal for Arsenal at the Emirates ..... it's Bendtner for the Gunners, could that be a crucial goal in the title race? ..... Hold on ..... no, actually Jason Bourne is telling me that actually it has no effect whatsoever. You are listening to Radio Leicester, live on 104.9fm, bringing you every kick of every game home and away for the whole season, you will not miss a kick here. Al - is that - Young - It's a blummin great big Pelican .. Stringer - A seagull has landed right in front of us, and it is chasing a packet of crisps ... that is comical Al, just comical (in the background, a massive roar of the crowd, no mention of what's happening) Young - A seagull, yes he's got his head stuck in the packet ... Stringer - absolutely unbelievable .. a seagull (Crowd roars) Stringer- "Here comes Drinkwater now, he's slipped in Taylor- Fletcher...Across for Kevin Phillips... ITS THEREEEEEEEEEE" There you go KentFoxSteve, just fixed your script for greater Radio Leicester 'authenticity'.
Babylon Posted 3 January 2014 Posted 3 January 2014 To let other clubs know that he's available to potentially stop us signing him? He wouldn't have just come out with this for the sake it, there's obviously something behind him doing this. Well, it's already fairly common knowledge he's available as it was in the nationals a few days ago about him leaving palace. I think you are overplaying how smart Harry Redknapp is. If this has to do with anything, it's about getting his chairman to buy him a few strikers.
Jace Posted 3 January 2014 Posted 3 January 2014 What about Gally isn't he a striker too or is Redknapp not concerned about him?
Devonfox1884 Posted 3 January 2014 Posted 3 January 2014 What about Gally isn't he a striker too or is Redknapp not concerned about him? Im sure he has him quaking in his boots...
Buce Posted 3 January 2014 Posted 3 January 2014 There you go KentFoxSteve, just fixed your script for greater Radio Leicester 'authenticity'. . Uncannily accurate - if you'd mentioned sandwiches, the car journey, the ref, Doris from Groby (she's been poorly, Ian), an irrelevant anecdote from Youngy's career, and the current state of Stringer's father's accumulater.. it would have been perfect.

AKCJ Posted 3 January 2014 Posted 3 January 2014 Radio caller: "I personally think we should have kept Beckford. He had a really great game against us in December and only scored 8 goals all season because Bolton are rubbish". Jason Bourne: But Jermaine, we've just got promotion? We didn't need him after all, surely? Radio caller: "Well I don't actually go to the games as I can't afford it now. I rely on the commentary from Ian and Alan. But everytime i've seen Beckford on the tele he's done really well. I don't think Vardy has been good enough. Jason Bourne: "But Vardy has scored twice as..... Stringer: "SORRY to interrupt you chaps, I'm here in the bowels of the King Power Stadium and the match winner, Kevin Phillips, has just walked in.. "He's got his black boot bag in swinging around in his left hand and he's enjoying a glucose energy bar from his right. "What is it Kevin? Yoghurt? Chocolate? Fruit? Vanilla????" Kevin Phillips: "It's just a Kit Kat mate". Stringer: "Oh and look, the perennial jokers David Nugent and Paul Gallagher have just walked in. "Both have their finely tuned abs out with their shirts swinging around in the air in celebration. Mmmm. "So, Kevin, you've been with the club now since January. How have you found your time working with Nigel Pearson?". Kevin Phillips: "It's been really great. We've managed to do what we set out to do so, yeah, it's great. Stringer: Excellent. So will you be hanging up the boots now? Kevin Phillips: Nooo. i'll hang around till January and then sign for the next team in a shout of promotion. Stringer: Well thankyou. You were the man of the match, awarded by Alan Young, our expert summariser here on BBC Radio Leicester. Congratulations, go and enjoy your success with the team. Stringer: My phone is flooding with tweets so i'll read some of those out. "from lestafan2001: Eieieio up the football league we go. "from my wife: Come home now, we need to talk. "from Kevin Phillips: Buzzing with promotion, but just had the weirdest interview ever. *Stringer lets out a long, high pitched laugh* "and finally, from Gary Lineker "Good to see the blues back in the big time". Jason Bourne: Well thats all we have time for on BBC Radio Leicester as the Foxes earn promotion to the big time.... *starts playing commentary from the last minute goal* Young: It's a blummin great big Pelican ..
