Anyway. Dickov is parking the bus by the looks of it.

Post by: Dutch Uncle on May 03, 2014, 12:46:47 pm: Plenty of time to change tactics if we are still in the game

No good going 2-0 down early on and Brum knowing all they have to do is draw

Title: Re: Leicester City F.C - TL Doncaster
Post by: pib on May 03, 2014, 01:04:34 pm: Not a bad half against these, but we've got nothing up front. Brown has been isolated but for the odd time Coppinger has made a burst forward.
Title: Re: Leicester City F.C - TL Doncaster
Post by: Superspy on May 03, 2014, 01:04:44 pm: I'm watching a live stream of the game. We seem to be playing well. We're spending quite a lot of time in their half to say we've set up defensively.
Title: Re: Leicester City F.C - TL Doncaster
Post by: PDX_Rover on May 03, 2014, 01:04:54 pm: H/T - good half. Worked hard. Created a few openings. Leicester had a couple of chances which Sam was equal to. Kept it up lads. Discipline and focus.
Title: Re: Leicester City F.C - TL Doncaster
Post by: Chris Black come back on May 03, 2014, 01:08:51 pm: The big worry is that Bolton just do not look remotely interested. Birmingham dominated the first half and had disallowed goal as well.

Don't talk daft, he was struggling all season with injuries. Yes there were some bad tactical decisions but we were unlucky to be doomed in the 93rd minute goal .
Bolton switched off and the penno sent us down clearly.
We're all gutted but to instantly attack the manager is just a 'kneejerk' reaction.

Post by: ravenrover on May 03, 2014, 07:03:46 pm: I think we can go further back, Reading 4-1 put the writing on the wall for me yes I know we ended up with 10 men but it lead to 11 goals conceded and 2 scored in 3 games it was going to be uphill for the rest of the season, And before anybody says it yes hindsight is a powerful tool.
Dickov at the moment is too naïve as a manager he doesn't know when to shut shop pull the blinds down and turn the lights off JMHO
Title: Re: Leicester City F.C - TL Doncaster
Post by: CusworthRovers on May 08, 2014, 11:12:22 am: Sorry for the delay, I've tip toed back from Leicester.

In summary:

Leicester never wanted to win that game off the pitch nor on it. It was simply a show game for them and they were happy for us to have our spoils. In short we forced them to score by giving away a soft penalty (and even then he just kicked it down the middle to make it look genuine, but un-bothered if it went in). We were unable to stay in it, even under these circs. We should never have let it come to this final game.

Another quite unbelievable chapter in this clubs life. We've had some good chapter endings and bad ones.

I've shared my sorrows with stella and rioja.

I've debriefed it with Rob The Rover at The Dome, when I took my youngest to a party there, and Rob was just leaving the Men Only Sauna session.
