Re: Sousa sacked - acccording to the Mirror Stowell and Powell in charge - official club statement

Abe may be hit by the immigration cap - I think its only 30,000 being allowed in before April when a new cap will be bought in. As Abe is not an EU national and it could be argued that people in Britain could do his job, and he hasn't played 75% of Japans international games in the last two...

Its all very English really. Milan felt that as Pearsopn had done suich a good job he owed him the chanceto speak to Hull. But he didn't really want him to. Pearson spoke to Hull because he was offered the chance to - but he didn't really want to. Just two blokes unable to communicate their true...

Interesting. Look at it from NPs point of view .... with 4 strikers at the club already (3 of whom NP bought in) getting a decent player in and paying their wages ... say £20k a week for a seciond string prem player plus an "arrangement fee" ... looks like a £250,000 bet. I think we will stick...

I've never heard of an emergency transfer - even goalkeepers are loaned not bought. There is no way that Leicester City are going to spend £5m on a striker. Absolutely ludicrous. MM is a businessman and he will have been hit hard by the credit crunch, personally I am glad he didn't splash the...

Frankly I'd be worried if other clubs were not being linked with our manager.

If you are using a mac then I recomend a programme called "I record Music" it records radio programmes (including the iplayer) and dumps them in a special playlist on iTunes. You can even set it to record programmes like a sky+ box. but it is mac based.

Hi We'll be back after the Newcastle game. We are always looking for contributors to talk after a match .... so if you fancy it let us know. Foxpodder

Papers can't lose. If they say Pearson will go - they will be right eventually. If they say he'll stay - they will be wrong eventually. So saying he'll go is a story. Yesterday the Observer said there will be 2000 extra troops going to Afghanistan - The Indy said we were going to cut troop...

Arthur Chandler from QPR and Derek Dougan from Peterborough.

It was clear that there was a split at the club. And having seen off the all his rivals at the club MON was in a clear sense master of all he surveyed. I guess some people will blame him because he left - but frankly he did give us 5 years so I can't blame him for that. What he left was a...

Danny Kaye ....."You can't outfox a fox"? Used on Radio 2 drivetime for their business slot. Ok .... just a suggestion.

The Football League will be on BBC next season with a regional highlights show (I guess covering all of the midlands in our case) plus 10 live Championship matches to be shown on the BBC. The BBC Sport website will show goals from all Football League clubs. So no searching round to find...

My favourite Bill Anderson "lines" were those that were factually correct but annoyingly rubbish ... such as whe Peter Taylor was sacked ...... "Thanks to the fans we've sacked a manager that kept us up and replaced him with a manager that got us relegated". - See what I mean!

The gap to third is similar to the gap Cheltenham have to close to stay up ... and none of us give them a prayer ... so we are up ... we just need to do it in style now - anything less than champions will be very dissapointing. Oh ... and why are people panicking? Between now and May there will...

Forest to stay up .... and first game of next season .... Stoke City v Leicester City at the Britannia .... its all lined up!

Dickov Summary; Leaving Leicester - The Club insisted on inserting the clause about him leaving if they were relegated NOT Dickov or his agent. In fact he nearly stayed but went to Blackburn even though City offered him a better financial deal. Why Blackburn? 1. See La Manga below 2 And...

No matter what age you are yiou can renew as a student for £207 in the kop. You have to have a letter to say you have been offered a place at University etc and away you go. Even adults in their 50's going to Uni get the "under 22" £207 deal.

I know that no one is panicking! Over the current form from the last 8 matches the final totals for those most likely to go up automatically are; Leicester City @ 1.37 points per game - final total 90 Peterborough @ 2.00 ppg - final total 87 MK Dons @ 1.62 ppg - final total 83 Millwall @...

We also have to remember the context. The Sky deal with the Premier League went up hugely in 2000/2001 and City wanted to show ambition and spend some of the new improved Sky money. We should have learned after that first season that PT wasn't buying great talent and yet he got more the...

I think there was an occassion he tried to buy the club before it went into administration. maybe wrong!

Which explains why he was so confident in his dealings when he tried to buy the club. Looks like he was shafted. We may not have wanted him to buy the club but he was being honest when he said he had the cash lined up ...... just he didn'y know he was being lied to! Well well ... this...

Should be on Central News and East Midlands Today on Monday Night

Nigel Clough has achieved great things at Burton - look how far ahead they are in the league. In the press conference just now he said his dad had been tempted to return to Derby .... and that if he asked his dad for advice on taking this job he'd have probably said "don't be so daft"!. I...

Re: MK Dons PMT 0-1 MK Dons, especially now their talismanic captain is staying. Its bound to happen - you know it will. But we will reach the play-offs at least - just a few blips on the way (of which this will be one!)

Re: Alexander Tunchev I think I know how the deal is being funded! The Leicester City TEXT service has already sent out the same text about the deal 3 times - at 25p a pop they just need to send it to me 320,000 more times. Funnily enough the text doesn't mention that its subject to him...

Former Portsmouth manager Alain Perrin has stepped down as Lyon coach after a season in charge of the French club. Lyon won their first domestic league and Cup double last season but there was reported disharmony between Perrin and his backroom staff...

I think you will find that Juventus romped the league - got promoted - and this season just gone finished in third place in Serie A

Attendance is higher now than in the 70's and 80's. Didn't it go down as low as 11-12,000 at one point for league games? I know the stadium is bigger but "generally" people are more affluent and the game is seen as a safer place to go. Being in Div Three should remind us of what the grounds...

There won't ever be a 75% Asian population in Leicester .... The City of Leicester is around 33% Asian at present. Thats around 100,000 people od Asian origin - most of whom were born here in the UK / Leicester. (Check the Office of National Statistics website for the 2001 census) As...

Darren Ferguson

I wonder if Darren Ferguson will be ringing up his dad and asking "Leicester - what do you think dad?"

I really can't see anyone local buying the club off MM. They would get so much sh*t from fans for everything that went wrong that I don't think any local person (no matter how rich) would feel it worth the hassle - and stress. Can you imagine the crass things that some fans do ... and having...

Listening to music in the car and thinking about our predicament got me thinking of the music tracks to calm us down and inspire us back up again. Didn't include and Leonard Cohen - didn't want to be that morbid. 1 Paint it Black - Rolling Stones 2 Revoloution - The Beatles 3 Move on Up...

Perspective ..... If we get relegated tomorrow I'll be very pissed off. But life will go on. No one is going to die because we get relegated. I guess that is real perspective. And in August I'll still be there at the Walkers.

Down .... saints will beat Sheff U .... "Sheffield United look set to be without striker James Beattie, winger Lee Martin and defender Ugo Ehiogu for their play-off decider at Southampton." As for us ... our body language is all wrong. Frankly anyone else standing on the touchline instead...

Megson said the players weren't good enough - and you all slagged him off for bad man management.

PS - apart from the promotion season with Micky Adams ... this is our 5th season out of six we have been at the wrong end of the table in the prem (1 season) or Championship (4 seasons). There is something structurally and emotionally wrong with the club - someone needs to fix it - once they...

Guys guys ... nothing much has changed - we expected Sheff Wed to close up on us - the fact they are only one point better off than us is not as bad as it could have been. Yes Barnsley stuffed Watford but they are the only team with a game in hand now ... and we have 6 teams (us Blackpool, Cov...

Blackpool haven't won for 8 games ... could be a big long slide back to where they came from?
