Match Thread Fleetwood v Leicester (FA cup)

[popillius]

I once scored an own goal very similar to Dragovic’s effort. My keeper was further off the line which gave me more of a target to hit the back of the net.

I scored a cracking OG when I was playing at school once. It came off my knee and looped over the keeper whilst I was flapping around trying to avoid the attentions of a wasp.

Harvey having a nervous start, to put it kindly.

Awful so far.

Despite my earlier comment about the potential facilities in the ground, the pitch is dire.

 

[Brown Nose]

Probably Mahrez’ agent at it again.

My thoughts exactly.

Another thing is that Puel has swapped wide men already today. It's something he seems to do whenever we play anyone other than Mahrez. Shakespeare did the same too. This suggests that, despite being left footed, Mahrez isn't keen to play on the left.

This would make him highly inappropriate for Liverpool who already have Salah and Mane who prefer the right side.

Gray doesn't half look like a mardy prick.


We are absolutely clueless here. Being bullied on the ball and generally look half arsed.


Silva looks in shock

 

[popillius]

Zzzzzzzzz

 

[glyn]

Reminds me of an England match in one of those qualifiers. Bunch of players stuck together in a team, no idea how to play together, opposition sharper to the ball, and when one of our players does have the ball near their box they are only thinking of having a shot and getting the glory.

 

[popillius]

Silva looks crocked.

 

[Lako42]

We really are little old Leicester in every situation.

Every single man back for a free kick, not one player remaining up as an outlet.


Complete wankfest

 

[bloo]

Good lord this is poor.

 

[Brown Nose]

Complete wankfest

Chill out man.

We're in control and will see this through comfortably. I'm not in the slightest bit concerned.

We'll win this 2-0.

 

[Orifice]

The game will be better in the second half when we bring Mahrez and Vardy on.

 

[popillius]

Chill out man.

We're in control and will see this through comfortably. I'm not in the slightest bit concerned.

We'll win this 2-0.

There's a lot of sheets that will need wringing out soon, isn't there?!

 

[Lako42]

We'll win this 2-0.

That's great news.

It's still a complete wankfest.

 

[Brown Nose]

That's great news.

It's still a complete wankfest.

So what?

 

[City Fan]

I’m so glad we rested all our players for the next game in 7 days time, in order to challenge for 8th position in the league.

 

[City Fan]

I asked the question earlier, but who do we have to come off the bench to change the game?

At least when we rested the likes of Mahrez and Vardy in the EFL cup we still had them on the bench.

 

[Micky]

This was never going to be a full flowing dominant performance. We are playing on a shite pitch, against a team that are up for it and with a very much changed team. But as I said earlier, with the right attitude we win.

 

[Kettering Pete]

Might go watch Desborough v stourport in the FA Vase. At least they take their cup matches seriously.

Highlight of the game for me so far, seeing a flag in the corner of the end Leicester were attacking that read Cod Army Papua New Guinea.

Fecking glory hunters.
