    So you admit that you're struggling with playing two games a week, due to squad depth issues?
    That was the ****ing point that you raged against earlier! <doh>

    Mate, this is where you've lost it.

    We haven't struggled at all. We sold out our remaining tickets in 20 minutes (a few thousand that were unwanted by members/STHs that couldn't make it)

    It's taken you a week.

    Our tickets were dearer too mate :) Just saying it doesn't mean it's true.

    If you can't see that then it's your problem, i'll still be laughing at you <ok>

    We looked tired against Southampton because we've played 7 games in 22 days. Two times a week is fine.

    You claim that you sold out in 20 minutes, despite actually saying earlier that you checked and there were tickets available.
    You're also claiming that it's taken us a week to sell three times as many tickets. Are you really failing to see the difference?

    Your tickets weren't dearer, either. No idea where you got that from.
    Yours ranged from £20-45 for adults. Ours cost £20-50.

    That is two times a week. You're not fine, by your own admission.

    Spurs have played 7 games in 23 days, including a round trip to Russia.
    The last of which the team looked full of running ...

    It's 3, but I appreciate Maths may not be your strong point.

    Our tickets that were available to general sale were in the expensive section. At least those were the ones that were left when I logged in to check <ok>

    Note that I checked on the day. My Brother isn't a member and he was on holiday so he asked me to buy for him.

    I'm fully aware that there is a difference <laugh> You're the one that brought our game against United into this conversation <doh>

    Ooooh a whole week? £20 a pop?

    That's how clubs should look after their fans.

    For 20 quid Leicester fans expect a Kasabian concert to be thrown in too.

    It's two.

    You played Saturday and Wednesday in week one, then Saturday and Tuesday in weeks two and three.
    Week four you played on Sunday and that's your only game.
    That's twice a week.

    Your tickets were no more expensive than ours and were actually cheaper in a number of cases.
    Please don't attempt to move the goalposts, as it's embarrassingly transparent and uncheckable, too.

    I'd compare another Leicester game, but I can't think of one that you've shifted 80,000+ tickets for.
    Can you suggest one, please?

    22 divided by 7 is just over 3 mate.

    Only you could argue with basic maths.

    I can't.

    But, like i've said, Leicester don't claim to be a big club.

    If we did claim to be a big club then it'd be quite embarrassing to have a full week of general sale at £20 to get rid of enough seats to fill a stadium down the road <ok>

    £20 is superb and Spurs should be applauded for it. Shame you've had to rely on tourists to help fill it mind.

    Two games every six and two sevenths days. 7 days in a week, so it is fractionally over two games per week and much less than three games a week. About this basic maths,what don't you understand?

    Yeah but we do and we are. A pathetic point like the length of time it took to sell tickets and their price won't change that.

    We have big ambitions we always try, never rest on our laurels.

    Last seasons disappointment has helped us grow as a team. You boys won the league, well done. The lack of fight and desire to defend it has been quite sub standard bordering on taking the piss in a kind of we have achieved everything we ever wanted to now we will go back in our box kind of way, embarrassing.

    Big clubs with rich heritage don't do that. They come back fighting like the Mighty Tottenham Hotspur.

    Only Spurs fans could argue this. Really is comical.
