Elvis Hammond 'ankle'?

Vardy lost a couple of sprints against defenders today, worrying if he was trying but was he trying? I'd guess he was saving himself for a real game, he doesn't have to show he's on it in preseason to get a starting place.

Looked more like achilles to me on the tv

My wife is a lawyer and is currently reading the 75 page ruling, Vardy comes across terribly in the ruling

I'm happy to be on any list tbh, which colour is pc?

I'm distraught, no emails or texts asking me to go to this shit, I must be on a bkacklist

Danny Simpson basically confirmed this in the interview where he said he should never have left and should have accepted being a backup player because they are treated so well at Leicester.

They've extended the contract so that the club can negotiate a transfer fee when he goes, also KDH was a late bloomer although he did perform well whilst he was out on loan.

In my experience auditors send the least experienced staff to do audits, they've just left university and are pretty credulous, just take them for a decent lunch and tell them everything is fine

I think that club's have options about how they amortise contracts, Derby got in lots of trouble because they did it in a strange way but there are options about how you account for costs, football is a strange business

With the finances the way they are the wage bill at Leicester cannot be ignored, the loss of European tv money means the club is in a far worse place than last season, plenty of clubs have held their nerve and ended up in administration.

So are you, so am I, everyone is a **** when you break it down

To be fair they've had to because most of their squad was on loan

I thought that was one of the main points of the Marr interview but tbh I don't really take much notice of the mainstream political journalists as they are all in the same pond to differing degrees, I did have a chat with Ed Miliband and he seemed to have good explanations for the current policy...

Brexit has happened and there will be no easy or cheap ways to undo it, the UK had one of the best deals going with the rebate and they won't get anything like that if they try to rejoin. Labour has to figure this into their politics if they are to be taken seriously, Starmer is dry as sticks...

Leicester haven't paid £30m for him much like they never paid £30m for Perez.

I know, Leicester have possibly had their days in the sun and could now return to their more long term level. I can't say I'll miss the European away days after the shitfest we had this year and I hope that the new training ground is properly funded because it could be a massive drain on a...

The club followed a policy of trying to emulate Man City by having 2 players in every position of similar quality but without the cash to follow through, this has left a competitive 1st team and a bloated overpaid 2nd team which isn't up to the job. If lucky this season, no significant injuries...

BR has a history of last minute failure at more than 1 club.

Selling Cas to get a good right winger is the only way this makes any sense, we have cover at rightback.

Time will tell, Barnes needs to find form, Vardy needs to stay fit and the right side really doesn't look strong to me, like quite a few teams Leicester are one or two big injuries away from a difficult season.

He'd be better off turning his phone and computer off and relaxing in the garden for 2 months, that way he can't be blamed if this window goes badly.

I knew I'd forget at least one, I did check with the OH but she missed MCFC away because of covid

Yes, we were in several safe standing areas last season at away games and tickets were sold on that basis, if I remember correctly THFC, MUFC and LFC put us in safe standing areas.

It would make more sense for the club to convert part of the away section and L1 to standing as part of the proposed east stand development in my opinion but I don't expect the development to progress at any rate.

Leicester chief executive was massively against it and makes stuff up about regulations around standing and the Taylor report, I wouldn't expect the club to do it unless there is some commercial benefit

Even if the club had tons of cash to splash on signing it has a horrendous wage bill and isn't very attractive to potential first team players, I expect they will have to wait for players with no other options to decide they are willing to play for Leicester. The squad is where it is because of...

The biggest joke is that the CEO received an honour for services to fan engagement, the club is on the wrong side of just about every engagement issue imo except for a few box ticking exercises, all papered over by bunging a wedge to local charities and a few bits of tat given out to supporters

The whole hating rugby thing is a bit strange, I gave up my ambitions at 18 having failed at my trials with St Helens after playing county union for Gwent and Warwickshire (league was the only pro option at the time) I played a bit of local league football after that.

I'm happy with a long winter break, it means I can go to New Zealand in their summer without missing any matches

It was more a reference to how bad the club's revenue to wages ratio is

Probably released a grand total of £25/month in wages

I can't remember which member of the Manchester United coaching staff (one of the Nevilles?) was quoted as saying that if you are still at the club to make it into the U23 squad you've failed and should move on. It seems that at most Premier League clubs U23s is a holding stage before dropping...

I guess that there are no plans for a 'glamour' home friendly because the KP is being rented out for the Community Shield?

They'll lose tomorrow, I've finally caved and bought a £10 ticket for the game

It is madness but most of those players have not played all that much over the last season for various reasons

Yes, almost as soon as I wrote that someone told me they had received the email to say that you can now keep your seats, typical of the club to announce one thing then change their mind after a backlash. I'm happy enough with where we've moved to.

Everyone I know from SK1 has moved out now because they didn't want to enter the lottery to see if they could get the seats they wanted, we were offered 3 seats together in P block, in the ambulant disabled section (nobody in our group is disabled) or on the back 3 rows in SK other than the 3...

It seems strange that Gary hasn't got some serious hospitality seats that have access to some kind of fast track

I take it that you hate our Gary because he played for spurs? Personally I really don't care where players move to.
