Cracking bit of footwork - saw that they won 4-0, seems he is enjoying his time there now, which will only benefit us in the long term.
Might have wanted it to only be half a season though ? We might have needed him in the squad late in the season.

Confirmed now that the Leicester City owner along with 4 others died in the accident. Sad news and thoughts with LCFC and the victims families.

Its' a horrible thing to happen.

Strange enough though a few months ago I was thinking about it and mentioned it to my brother about giving it the jonny big potatoes leaving from the ptich in a helicopter, I bet that thing will crash one day. it was a throw away comment but then it happend.

never in a million years would you get me in a helicopter - Matthew Harding died the same way, didn't he ?

you hear it so often, some rich guy or celeb loses everything just for the sake of convenience.

if the engine stalls on those things, you die. its physics plain and simple. :banghead:

RIP to those four, its a shame as he really seemed to love the club not like our wiggy.

Yeah, I said exactly that on Foxes Talk. Their owner really engaged with the fans unlike silent Stan. He would often put his hand in his pocket, I believe he once bought fans beer and a doughnut to celebrate his birthday.

That would never happen at the Emirates.

helicopters are known as flying coffins.
if something fails on an airplane you still have a chance - if the tail rotar fails on a helicopter then you are dead

RIP to them all - it won't happen but hopefully other rich owners can look at Leicester City as the perfect way to run a club.

Spurs should be fined for that pitch. Fucking disgrace, can’t play football on that.

City would have cut them apart second half, like Liverpool at home they were loose as fuck. Massive leveller to have a pitch you can’t pass the ball on.
