    Soon as I heard he was playing the exact same XI as the previous shambles, didn't even bother following the BBC thread - 0-2 likely flattered us ...

    The cynic in me wonders if this is part wheeze to circumvent PSR / FFP bollocks - we only lost £19m in the Championship (recent published accounts) and our net spend this campaign will probably mean similar, possibly better - so promotion next season would, theoretically, mean we could 'substantially invest' for the following.. he's also had 11 academy lads in first team training since the start of the International break but isn't including any in the matchday squad... all rather odd ...

    I think you're in trouble next year mate to be honest. In a terrible financial situation with potential sanctions to come too.

    See you as the least likely to bounce back of the 3.

    I agree, it looks like the EFL is looking to give Leicester a reeming!!
    They only escaped it this long because they got promoted to the PL, but as soon as they go back down, the EFL will be waiting, with surgical gloves and lube.....

    I'm more optimistic - Fatawu is back in training but won't be risked this season , him and Mavididi tore up the Championship last time and no reason they won't again ...

    We also seem quite adroit at swerving sanctions - won't be surprised if we do it again ...

    Nope - the reason we beat the PL PSR and FFP charges is because we had very clever lawyers ... lawyers which we still have ...

    Utd only need 3 points to hit the 40 point magic number.

    Of their 8 games left, they should be at Wolves, and maybe West Ham, but I honestly see them losing the other 6.

    I know what you are talking about ... if we can 'outfox' the PL's lawyers ... which we did ... then the EFL's aren't going to frighten us that much, are they? ...

    ... ain't like we'll need to sell our women's team to ourselves to comply or owt...

    I don't see Ipswitch back any time soon - with the loan players gone and Delap to be sold, they're down to a mid table championship side really.

    It's for doing Liverpool countless favours, then for returning some back to the other teams in weird moments of random karma - ie last goal and the Liverpool goal disallowed against Spurs last season.

    Besides that.

    Thats a potentially career ending tackle and var does nothing.

    Should've got 5 red cards for that.

    Fuking joke it is

    They'll still be decent ... but there are some big clubs in that division ... and likely with Birmingham and Wrexham with their Hollywood owners arriving ...
