The last Thai owner (before LCFC) had "interests" in both Man City and Birmingham. A guy whom had political interest in which (from unofficial sources) tells us he's a dodgy bar-steward. It was not his own money he put up front, it was a consortium, just like GLazier's @ Man Utd, Hicks & Gillett @ Liverpool, and your previous owners.

LCFC owners have built up a multi million company in far east asia, and are looking to take there brand global.

Now, if you were buying a club, which option would you take:

1 - Medium sized club, 2nd tier league, centrally based, little or no debt, £50m to take control (icluding ownership of stadium), or

2 - Medium sized club, 1st tier based, capital based, £100m + debt.

By the way, if you choose option 2, your no longer 1st tier......

At the end of the day, s**t happens to both club, country and person. I've been a fox since '91, my 1st city game was the playoff final against Blackburn. I've seen the ups, I've seen the downs, you have seen the same with our own club. You opened this thread with a good statement, "LCFC are signing players left, right and centre, but are they good enough compared to WHU squad". Unfortunately, us fans cannot answer that question. If we could, we would be getting paid the same ££££ as our own respectable managers.

If you buy West Ham you get two stadiums,as well as a 30M grant from the local council and with one of the
stadiums holding 60,000 capacity,on top of this West Ham are based in London,players from abroad are attracted by this,even though your neighbours Villa are in the midlands,they are struggle to get big players in and they are leaps and bounds ahead of you.

So for me I can honestly say I would pick West ham,either way it doesnt really matter,you have got your foreign owners and we have got owners who support the club.

As the other Leicester supporters on here are busy talking in secret gay tongue,who else do you see being the main threat next year ?

I dont fancy Leeds,they may sneak into the play off's,I think Forest might surprise people next year.
I think Birmingham will struggle,they have sold or simply let most of their squad leave,their foreign owner seems to be showing no interest in backing the team so far, all their signings have been freebies nobody else wants
 
Nolan - brilliant signing, Taylor - poor.
Nolan is a good goal scoring midfield player and I am amazed that Newcastle let him go. Taylor has a decent left boot about 6 or 7 times a year, apart from that totally inconsistent. Would I have liked either at Leicester ? Nolan yes, Taylor definitely not. Be ineresting to see who scores more ths season, Nolan or Andy King.
The way big sam plays football, think King will do the business.

I would've loved LCFC to have signed Nolan and Taylor, but we went through the stage of singing "last meal" players a few years back.

Talking out of my arse, I wish, would give the jaw a break!!

I have just noticed you guys have Darius Vassel,Ha , I thought he had retired years ago,I see he still knows
were the back of the net is.I remember him skinning most defences in the prem back in the day,he would normally do it
without the ball but hey,it was always a nice side show.

What other strikers have you got at the club ?

Im pretty confident Nolan will win that race,this King character had the chance to make it at Chelsea but didnt
meet the required standard,he's done well for you lot but he's hardly a great player,if he was he would have moved on
after spending the last four years with you guys,you will have to try again,im not convinced with the King,who else you got worthy of a mention

Koby - tell us which pair of WHU players you would select that would be better fullbacks than Paintsil and Konchesky (second time you've been asked).

Jordan Spence - has played for every England youth set up for the last 4 years,he will be the surprise package for
the championship this year,he has tremendous pace and is a great crosser of the ball.

I would suspect that WH would go for Matt Taylor unless we sign anyone else before the season starts,we have a lot of pace in Stanilas and Hines who would create more problems on the wing for the opposition
 
Taylor at full back ? ffs ! He'll get slaughtered. Just thinking of some of the right wingers in the championship - kebe, gradel, vassel. They'll skin him alive
 
Faubert is a great player when he gets his head out of his arse,he's fast and can play the wingback role well.

I have high hopes for Spence,Spector was **** in any defensive position,put him in midfield and he plays remarkably well.Illunga was very consistent when he first arrived,his head seemed to go when his mate Zola left.

Im not concerned,we have a squad that is 75 % complete and the rest will be added before the transfer window
closes.
 
But as you mentioned before,big sam plays the long ball,Taylor can just hover on the corner of his own box and when
he gets hold of the ball he can ping it straight to Carlton Cole who will burn a hole in the opponents net
 
you need to be careful of that thai grass it warps the mind. should stick to playing football manager if i was you koby
 
Well. at least you have that "brilliant" New Zealand International Winston Reid to hold the defence together :)

Quoting you - Faubert is a great player when he gets his head out of his arse,he's fast and can play the wingback role well.

I have high hopes for Spence,Spector was **** in any defensive position,put him in midfield and he plays remarkably well.Illunga was very consistent when he first arrived,his head seemed to go when his mate Zola left.

So you're saying - when............. if............... and previously.............

Donald Ducked hahaha
 
Unlike yourself I dont do drugs,im guessing that the drug of choice for most Leicester fans must be acid
if any of their predictions are anything to go by.

Nah Winston Reid was a shot in the dark,and we would have been better off if the club had put a gun to his head.
As for being ****ed I dont think so,rather than just come back with moranic jibes prove your point instead.
For example, name me your first and strongest 11
