    Hmmmm, money maybe.
    Follow the Sven, & you will undoubtedly find a pot of gold.

    I dont blame him for joining them as they are showing the most intent of all the clubs in the league. Just a shame, money talks i guess.

    I've just got off the phone with Sven. He made me an attractive offer and a free go on a number of the bimbo's he's currently porking to go and join the Leicester forum... but I said no.

    I can not be bought.

    They've bid for that North Korean striker who was babbling during the national anthem, looked a great player.

    West Ham and Leicester must be favorites.

    So their just buying a whole new starting 11 then. Feel sorry for the players who are now going to get chucked in the back of the cupboard to make way for the newcomers.

    Must be some we could bid for, the team Pearson assembled which is now being put to the back-burner was still a great team.

    You just have to hope that they are going to bring in too many players and they can't gell quickly enough.

    we dont need a whole new team, just 2 - 3 signings to give strength in depth throughout the squad. We have a good squad with proven championship players and classy youngsters. We are not that lot down the road who have to beg borrow and steal a whole new team!!

    Sorry, but Danns turned us down in Janurary 2010. That is 18 months ago and there is no real indication that we ever made another approach. If anybody should be disappointed about this its Rangers. And why would anybody want to go to Leicester? Simple answer, Money, money, money, money, MONEY!

    Ally McCoist is looking a little stupid at the moment - implying that Danns was going to sign for Rangers!

    Leicester are showing the most intent of any Championship side so far this transfer window of what they want to do next year. They have imo one of, if not the best, manager in the league in terms of reputation and they are clearly splashing the cash on both transfer fees and wages. These are the obvious reasons why players are signing for them, also we don't know what the players are shown when they arrive at the club in terms of the long term goals of the club.

    We may have lost out on some of Leicesters signings which is irratating but just think how Rangers/Celtic must feel about being snubbed by a championship standard player for a small town club that has never one anything of note in the East Midlands
