Can someone paste that Shinji interview in The Athletic. It's behind a paywall.

He did a really interesting (in my opinion anyway) podcast where he really opens up and well worth the listen:





It's 2 parts and about 3hrs total but still worth it.

They've also had a few other ex LCFC players on there and a good podcast all round, even the non Leicester players.

Sad to hear of the death of Malcolm Manley, a very decent, and mobile, centre back, who was our sort of Paul Madeley utility player at the end of the 1960s - unfortunately for him was mostly on the subs bench after City returned to the top flight in 1971. I think he was one of the last of the pipeline of '60s Jocks on whom much of our success in those days depended - how times have changed.

Desperately unlucky to end his career with a knee injury a few weeks after his move to Portsmouth.

RIP, Malcolm.

You win the richest match in football and where do you go as a 26 year old next?

Yes, of course you do, you move to Spennymore Utd in the Unibond League to play in front of a few hundred people.

I can't stand the posturing twat (NP). However there are times when a jumped up knob of a footballer is best dealt with by a smack on the nose.

NP could be relied upon to deliver the goods and the club benefited from it.
