  1. Forest winning the league first season up? Then going on to win the european cup 2 years in a row? In the context of how much football has changed since then, I think this would be greater. I do get your point and hell what Leicester are doing defies all logic but the forest thing was in the era of Liverpool at their best and Forest had finished 3rd in the 2nd division before coming up It's personal opinions, but was I see it Leciester are doing this in an era with 4 or 5 "Liverpools", all boosted by either years of CL revenue or oil-rich billionaires pouring huge amounts of money in giving them access to top players around the world on a scale never seen before in this country. Putting together a title challenging side at a tiny nothing club in the current era has to be a much greater achievement. And not wanting to belittle their achievement, the European Cup was a flat knockout competition back then.

  3. If they win the league, it's the greatest sporting achievement of all time. No hyperbole.
  4. Best L2 bet tonight is BTTS/over 2.5 goals at Clermont Foot.

    Tony Pulis who's fallen out with every chairman he's ever had and actually sued one of them? Sounds like Ashley's perfect manager.

    Steve McClaren

    This was said last season and staying up has done the club no good whatsoever. Re: your final point, obviously we'll see but imo the idea that any of those three managers would be desperate enough to sign themselves up to being Mike Ashley's latest slave is laughable.
  8. At least one other manager has done it twice (Big Mick, with Wolves and the mackems). Pretty sure nobody else has done it three times.
  9. That first touch is absolutely lush.

    simply doesn't have it in him to rouse the rabble Has the charisma of a stone A Steve Stone. A Father Stone
  11. Probably bad news that, their fans seem desperate for him to be dropped.
  12. Hope Swansea smash them to bits.
  13. Average shot/goal ratio in the PL is about 15%.

    Jesus, people still going on about Derby? Up there with Brazil '82 as the best team never to win anything tbh.
  15. Drop him from away games and play who instead? His low par performances on the road are only noticeable because he's been so good at SJP. Most of the others prefer to remain consistently shit.
  16. Not seeing this positivity I have to be honest.
