What's with the constant digs?


I'm asking why you're favourites to go up this season, since you were favourites last season and yet didn't even make the play-offs. It's a fair question isn't it?

Sergio Ramos didn't like Scout Lane Chippy and wouldn't come

Scout Road chippy?

If anyone offered him that, I'm not surprised he ran a mile.

Best we could do in the circumstances and at short notice, Olympus grill was booked out for the blue rinse brigade. They heard Bish was doing a sermon in there :)

Mills is a TOP signing, well done.

* let me caveat that with the confession I said the same thing about Tuncay last year. And I have the replica shirt to prove it too.

I don't think you will be the only one on this forum Jaffka with memories of Scout Rd in Bolton :lol:

Sir John Holden would be more befitting methinks.

Afraid you lads have been sold a dud here. He ended up training with the kids due to his attitude and Big Time Charlie is a phrase that was made for this knob.
Should Leicester be favs to win the league ? Not a hope in hell. Pearson will be gone by Xmas as his boot it down the channels and pick up the second ball is too predictable
Good luck to you boys

Hi Ralph - Is it actually known what went on between him and Pearson, or is it all conjecture? I'd have thought that Pearson's the kind of guy that it's fairly easy to fall out with to be honest.

Location: N Wales, but close enough to Chester I can pretend I'm in England
We entered the closed season with ;
A season-long absence for Wheater
Knight leaving on a free
A promising, but still learning Ream.

We now have Mills, as close a 1:1 for Wheater as you could want
Knight (I know, I know) signed again
Wheats possibly missing 'only' half a season.

With Ricketts ability to cover there as well, frankly, c-half is in decent shape.

Only time will tell if Mills is a £5m Leicester flop, or someone who was maltreated by his previous boss & will be having something to prove.

Gary Cahill wasn't exactly flavour of the month at AV when we signed him - he didnt turn out too bad.
