    I hope it's not true, he has some great qualities and thought he would be at Derby along time, I'd go as far as saying hes a keeper.

    I meant in terms of last years accounts which havent been submitted but havent resulted in an embargo.
    The current embargo is based off this years delayed accounts like other clubs. 
    Not entirely sure when the date is/was, I guess we dont know if we have submitted what was required already to lift the embargo.

    We've been linked with Gary Cahill as well and that is never going to happen. The papers link us to every player going, because they know we'll draw clicks to their sites. Being linked with someone doesn't mean we are interested in them and it definitely doesn't mean we have the resources to pay for them.

    Signed for Cardiff City.
    Shame... he's exactly the sort of centre-forward we need IMO.

    Oh god, I just really hope we get lucky and someone like Watson or Stretton have a mad breakthrough season with loads of goals and/or assists 
    At the moment, it does look really bad on the investment front so another relegation scrap seems likely 
    Only positives: maybe Jozwiak/Sibley will be much improved, Lawrence not missing three months might make a big difference... and now for the coup de grace of clutching at straws... IBE?

    Putin's red rams. Strong online presence. Convincing EFL not seen as a problem. 
    Bolstering defence as we speak.

    Do you not realise that Leicester aren't local rivals for Derby or Forest. Is that what is upsetting you?
    You are still the third most successful club in the East Midlands - nothing to be ashamed about. Just because it took you more than a hundred years to win a league title doesn't mean you should feel inferior to the rest of us.

    @Leicesterchampions You've been the top dog in the East Midlands for the last 5 years. You are still a long way behind the success of Forest and have still won less league titles than us. Not to worry though we might go into administration soon and follow in your footsteps by shafting a load of local businesses.
    I think we will stick with our local rivals thanks. How long is it since you had a local Derby - you can't have played Coventry much over the last few years.

    I hate FFP as much as the next man, but I don't think the "shackles" implemented by the EFL are what are causing the damage. Mel has known the rules since he purchased the club and has only himself to blame for the failure to stay within those rules. Limiting spending is not going to put your club at more risk - it might make it a lot more difficult to get promoted, but I can't see how its going to make anybody go out of business. If we'd followed the rules and not tried creative ways to get around them we would be fine.
    The fact that the EFL has done basically nothing to help with Covid and is actively punishing clubs who have yet to file their accounts is the main issue for me at the moment. They are completely out of touch and frankly I don't think they will be happy until they have destroyed a few more of their member clubs entirely.

    You don't need £30mill to run the club. Get 20 volunteers from the fanbase to make up the playing staff on wages of £50k per year - might not win anything, but we wont financially bankrupt ourselves either. Football clubs do themselves in by offering stupid wages when they don't have Premier League money to pay for it.

    I don't think it's right to rule out a points deduction at this time due to no precedent. However, I believe it would be absolutely unreasonable to do so in the circumstances.
    It should, and most likely will be, a fine.

    Home shirt should commemorate the title winning side.
    Yellow away shirt with blue shorts. 
    Third shirt (which for the past two seasons has become the away kit) should be black.

    I just get the feeling that if Chelsea win, it's another trophy won sorry, bought by the "big six". I just want a different name on the trophy so it's Leicester for me. I do hope Mason Mount has a good game though, I think he will be a key player at the Euros.

    And paying to relay the pitch. You'd think we'd be cutting costs everywhere we can rather than spending money on things we don't actually need to do.
