The idea that Koeman leaving us to go to Everton is entirely "Les Reed's decision" is just horsesh it. Koeman was offered a pay rise to stay, he refused and off he went. Not letting Koeman go into the final year of his contract without extension was the correct decision regardless of Puel or Pellegrino. People like you would be moaning like f uck if we'd done that and grizzling about Les's decision to not try and tie him down. But you're right, we'll never know but my advice is in those situations don't assume everything thing would have been better, which us what you seem to be doing. Maybe reference Koeman's second season with Everton which was a bloody car crash. Something people like you were not predicting this time last year. Most were saying how Everton were going to invest and build and grow and grow and build and invest and be be challenging for the top six.

We were never ever going to let Koeman do that, quite rightly. Not least because we would have had an entire season of fans moaning about "why didn't clueless Reed tie down Koeman earlier we knew his contract was running down etc etc". Or, if the season went badly they'd blame Reed for not extending Koemans deal so the club was allowed to drift and lacked leadership etc etc. Letting Koeman go into the final year entirely on his terms would have been a disaster. And anyway he would have gone to Everton anyway for the money. And, he did.

Yes it does. Only the truly unhinged Nordic nutcase can read an article like that and decide that it's a Les Reed puff piece based on a throwaway line about how we used to be good at transfers (spoiler alert: we did used to be good at transfers). No one is reading that article and thinking, ain't that Les Reed brilliant.

Quite a lot of unnecessary fuss really. It's not like the FA have always owned it - they didn't own it when Euro 96 was on, let alone when world cup 66 was on. At the end of the day it's just a venue and perfectly normal for that to be owned by a private business. The FA Cup final will still be there as will everything else because, funnily enough, what venues want is events to put on.

They haven't been particularly ambitious in their managerial appointments - promote the assistant, then Puel. Ranieiri worked but he wasn't a blue-chip appointment, most people thought they were mad. It certainly wasn't the equivalent of recruiting Emery for example. Leicester have done well on player retention, that's for sure.

You actually think we're going to get to 39 points? Jesus wept.

If Leicester don't dither about like we did, within one year.

It is over. We are down. If we beat Bournemouth then all the Cherries need to do is roll over against Swansea the following week and boom. We're relegated and Hughes knows it and the players know it too.

Looks like they're considering replacing Puel with an alternative world class manager.

It is nothing like that. It might not turn out well, but bears zero resemblance to SISU whatsoever.

So you think Chen still holds, present tense, a realistic ambition that in the here and now we are going to be top 10 Premier League club with this perfect management team? Seems unlikely.

Leviticus Chapter 7, right? Great stuff.

Wide range of roles - not purely football decision making. If he's talking about the club as a whole he is probably not wrong - we do have a fundamental structure in place that is sound. Doesn't mean Les has got a job for life or even a job in June.

Have you actually read those tweets yourself? They don't contradict the implication of the first one.

Oh that kit is going to so red red red red red red red and red. The dream is coming true.

It does say "had faith" so past tense. I had to re-read it but I think they're saying they didn't anticipate it being so terrible.

If they hold on here, that's them 8th on 45 points with three games to go. So three games to secure one more point to deliver what you can only describe as a "world class" season.

I've just been to Wembley and, result aside, have had a lovely day. Great day out, memories, singing my heart out, bittersweet defeat. But I was there. 86 other football league clubs did not make it to the FA Cup semi-final. Last time I looked, you were still pi ssing and grizzling about a handball goal fu cking months ago and how that has relegated us when patently it hasn't. I'm looking forward to next season. Because that's what we do. We march on. Next season 1st, 6th, 15th, 24th. Still support them. In the blood, see. Maybe you've picked the wrong hobby because from what I can see, you're fuc king useless to our cause. Maybe it's you that's pointless? Maybe that.

Actually thought he would view this as a shop window game and do something but no. Sh ite. Liverpool are going to sign him in the summer you know.

He's the anti-Puel.

A billion percent this. Sunday's match is the priority. Will be an utter disgrace if we play a weakened team.

It's a jolly funny routine you're working up. Keep at it.

I've heard some describe Claude Puel as a "world class manager".

Who is Hirst?

The weather was jolly nice and I had a very good (for football ground) sausage roll, proper handmade style. Those were my highlights. Everyone's said everything about our performance so worth noting that our Claude is sucking the life out of Leicester. Boos at the end. Definitely the quietest I can remember at that ground. Best summary of the match is probably Puel vs Puel. Two teams not trying to lose but not risking a lot going forward. Our fans were great especially first half but dispair did overtake us in the last 20. Mainly because we are nailed on relegated.
