Probably should have put from the first game! Did we have any midfielders playing Saturday - I must have missed them?
Yeh we need a shake up, Danns, Dyer, Fernandes, Gallagher and Schlupp would all come into the side for me.
Unless this in another example of lazy journo then he's not coming: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...0/Martin-ONeill-rejects-Leicester-return.html
Same artice as reported in other press. Top says we havent spoken to Martin. Dont see why Martin would release this to the press when there has been no contact. Wont believe that til I see him interviewed on TV and the words come from his mouth. Still cant believe that he has been considering coming back. Still living with a tiny bit of hope but expecting the worse
Bert just said on twitter that the next 48 hours will be big for us and that Martin O'Neill wont be coming. He could be nicking the info off the papers. And dont take his word as gospel as everyone remember Jimmy Kebe, Nicky Maynard and Sol Bamba saga with him. Also when we had the intial bid rejected for Jermaine Beckford he ruled him out signing for us and look where he is now
Whenever you see these words in the media "it is understood", you need to read it as "I have made this up so I look as if I am in-the-know, if it turns out to be true". While I doubt MON will come, I've read sfa that reliably comes from him. Bert has generally been fairly good, but has been completely wrong several times. All I can say is that I think the team is pretty good thanks to Sven and as long as the new manager can motivate (and hopefully gets in a couple of pacey wide players who can cross) we'll continue to do well.
Bert has this reputation on Foxestalk as some sort of fortune teller so he must have got a few things right to get that. But to me, it just seemed that people like Bert and Fourth Official would regurgitate what was said in the media and sort of add to it. For example, lets say that we'd had a bid that'd been accepted for Matt Mills and they would say 'Leicester have begun talks with Matt Mills' because they could then guess that it would happen next and low and behold, they would be right but it was something we could all guess but as we were all desperate for info, we would listen to them even though we could all guess what they were saying. However, when it came to the end of window and newspaper rumours were rife, they were caught short just repeating any rumour to make it seem like they had inside info. I think they do have some info, but nowhere near as much as they claim.
Yeah remind me when anything remotely interesting happens at bellend road to go onto your board and infest it - anyone would think you're a secret Leicester fan as you're always here. Maybe just jealousy as you still live in the past thinking you're still famous.
We're playing Cardiff on Sunday and we're on the telly. You're more than welcome to share your thoughts on our matchday thread. "Living in the past" is a nothing phrase which has no meaning whatsoever. We are still famous, better known and better supported than Leicester City. We were the last true Champions of the English top flight. We are still the Champions of Europe, and forever will be. I can't be arsed turning this into a dick-measuring competition when you're meant to be discussing O'Neill and your management vacancy.
Don't forget that they still think they are better than every other team in the league despite the evidence suggesting otherwise.
Ah its the 'i dont give a **** about Leicester City' brigade. Who cant see the irony of constantly posting on our board. When i say i dont give a **** about Leeds, i mean it which is why im not on your board. And the defence (you will no doubt attempt to use) 'i dont give a **** but i do love the amusement to be had by laughing at you lot' is not a defense. Why dont you go and troll Newcastle, Southampton,Hull, Bristol City, Cystal Palace, Luton, Hibs or AFC Wimbledon? I know why, its because you genuinely dont give a **** about those clubs even on an "amusing" level but you do give a **** about us. Thanks for stopping by
I already stated I do give a ****. Obviously I do or I wouldn't find it so amusing. But you seem to constantly misconstrue my interest in the current laughing stock of the league as "jealousy", when in fact there's nothing to be jealous of. I care because it amuses me and because a select few of your fans genuinely pissed me off at the start of the season constantly berating everyone and looking down their noses at everyone based on the amount of money spent, when in truth your team ended up no better (and in some cases worse) than many of the other promotion contenders.
So because a select few fans on this forum (and every team has its WUMs) your now engaging in a campaign of trolling everyone on our board. Hmmm seems a measured and mature response!
Well considering I come on here for entertainment I see no reason to not be childish at times. Part of maturity is understanding when it's ok to act childish - something many "adults" overlook. When you have a load of people on a message board intended for entertainment purposes taking themselves far too seriously for the context, it's entirely appropriate to mock them. There may be some collateral damage, I come on here intending to mock the idiots who came looking for us preseason, but I don't really see the collateral as a big issue - just because you don't actively come to our board, doesn't mean you're not just as stuck up.
