We REALLY hate playing Nugent 
Why? He went 17 games without a goal! 
I shall be at Vicarage Road tomorrow, half time one nil up. Come on you blues.
Steameh has really screwed up my ipad with his post last Saturday, the page has gone weird!

Nope, I was at my daughter's birthday party. Hope that's ok with you...?
I thought you'd have an excuse somehow.Reading through your thread it seems you hardly ever go, no doubt a lot of your fans are the same.
The biggest game you've had in years and you can't sell out an away leg of 2,000 or a home ground of 3 stands.
I don't see how anyone can comment on a game when they weren't there.
No more questions your honour I know all I need to.
Knockeart penalty definately was'nt a penalty, the tackle just before it was a foul I think, but he managed to stay on his feet and went looking for the penalty in the box as a result of it.
That said, Cassetti shouldn't have been on the pitch after kicking the ball away after the Ekland injury, that should have been his 2nd yellow, especially given a precidence had been set with Wood in the first half.
I'm a Leicester man, but I have to say Watford were the better team across the two legs. Would they be there without the loaned players though? Next year will certainly be interesting, for both teams.

I know the changes I would like to see. Could do with trimming off the remaining fat (thinking Beckford), bring in a few more young hungry players, could do with a new left and right back I dont think de laet is up to it, Konch is good but can be a liability, and Schlupp just wants to be a striker.Like to see Morgan and SSL as the prefered CB partnership, bring in another striker, preferably someone with a bit of height (or try and get Futacs up to speed).
Maybe a new left winger as I am not sure Dyer is much good other than as a last 30 minutes sub to impact tired legs.
Would add some much needed depth.
I'd put Schlupp on the left Wing, he's rapid and very strong. His first touch, composure and crossing need some work though amongst other things.
I like De Laet, as a modern full back I think he does the job as well as anyone in the Championship, i'm not sure Leicester would get better than him unless they spent mega bucks.
I think another forward, or a very attack minded midfielder wouldn't go amiss, someone who can hold the ball up well and has good footwork. Similiar to the role that Nugent ended up playing today. I'm no fan of Wood if i'm honest.

My issue with de laet is the same with most attacking fullbacks. He is great getting forward, but defensively he can be pretty poor. Not tracking or mistiming tackles. Hopefully with a full pre-season and some work we will be ready to try for Automatic next season.I've been going down the Walkers/King Prawn stadium for 9 seasons. The most memorable game for me was when Man Utd came in Sept 2003 and gave us a lesson on two counts a)How to play football - the sight of Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs and Van Nistelrooy charging at the City goal was something to behold, and the main cause of our 4-1 kicking.
And b)How to support your team when playing away. The Man Utd fans were loud, co-ordinated, never ending, and had an unbelievable selection of songs.
I won't be renewing this year, I've done my bit. And the sight of a second Frenchman in 3 years with a surname beginning with 'K' screwing up a penalty at the end of a play-off semi final was just unbelievable.
Good luck in the Championship next season. Come on you Foxes.
