I don’t particularly follow the sport that closely in this country since I don’t have a team to support anymore but its remarkable how we are at the point we are at with teams closing yet when a new one arrives people still can only find the negatives. They’ve done a fantastic job building that team in the timeframes they have been working to, hopefully it’s a success. 

Quite right with the Ipswich situation the league was in serous doubt - but it is good we have 6 teams in the PL to moan about in 2026!

Leicester should be welcoming this, they finally have a local rival in sport, (their football fans try and claim they have one with Forest, but it isn't a real derby, not like Forest v Derby). 

 

LCFC & Forest in different divisions and likely to continue for a few more seasons so no local rivalry (fiction or otherwise) for some time to come.

If this was 2012, Northampton would be title contenders.

Workington comets fans will disagree. He's been good for us barring the odd performance.

Last time he rode in the prem, as a guest, he done well too. He'll be fine, especially in the position hes riding. 

Agree he’s done a good job for us mainly solid scorer home and away for us, capable of beating anyone too.

Thought Leicester's main footie rivals was Coventry City ...
