Match Day Thread Leicester City v Newcastle United - FA Cup - Official Match Day Thread

no mate, just listening to the radio stream - it's about 2 mins behind

 

Alnwick is kinda ****e. Hes never going to play another premier league game in his life me thinks, just doesn't look good enough.

 

45 minutes from going our billionth year without a meaningful trophy, and it's only the 3rd round of this cup

 

As I've said before, unless we keep him as a very cheap third choice, I don't think he'll make a prolonged career out of the game.

 

He is League 2 at best ..Way off the minimum standard required to be a PL 3rd string back up

 

I don't know - from what I've seen he'll let owt between his legs!!!

 

So, what is everyone's thoughts on the likelihood of a second half comeback?

I'd love to see it, as this rag tag eleven could do with a lift. I just don't see anyone in the eleven having the gumption to raise themselves enough to push for an equaliser, let alone go on to get a winner.

 

This sounds ridiculous, but with Pardew in charge I'd have thought it possible, even if remote. With Carver and the bench he's managed to pick, not a fcking chance. 2 or 3 nil, perhaps worse as there's not one player out there who's a leader.

 

Big delay in the Barnsley - Boro game
it wasn't until the 15th minute that they found it was just the Boro fans and not a suspected gas leak

 

Yep, pretty much what I was thinking. Like you say, it wouldn't be likely, but there would have been more hope of a comeback under Pardew.

Who knows, this could be the making of Carver?

 

Literally our only senior player on the bench is Gouff. And I'd much rather he didn't get on at all. **** it, lets allow some debutants on, can't be any more anonymous.

 

Will he brave enough to stick Roberts on and see if he can create some magic? Don't see much more inspiring on the bench other than that.

 

How long until we have got a proper goalie back?

 

Good shout, Would like to see Bigi get a chance too

 

We had a game two days ago ffs carvers picked fitter fresher players that's clearly his thinking but we're ****ed basically

 

Blyth 2-1 Brum

 

Blyth 2-2 Brum

****

 

It's fair enough to want fresher players and to rotate the squad. But it wouldn't have gone a miss to have a few senior players on the bench.

 

Noooooooooooooooo Blyth...

 

I reckon I have about fifteen years on this side of the sod.

I would be nice to have one trophy in that time.
