They were the best side for 70 mins and you could say were unlucky to be losing by one, after that it certainly wasn't good though.

I don't get why Leicester seem to be struggling so much with FFP, they've been in the Europa, won the FA cup. Come top 6 in the league 2 times in the last 3 seasons.
They've hardly bought a player in the last 2 seasons. Last player they spent 30 mill + on was Fofana who they've just sold for 75! Also sold Chillwell for 45 mill. How come the books aren't stacking up?!

You nearly called it! Wilf was absolutely shocking in that match, but not all his fault. Played Spurs.

my mate is a Leicester fan and apparently the £16m it will cost to sack him will kill them FFP wise, because unlike player transfer fees which are spread along the length of the contract, a manager payoff comes out of FFP all in one go.

I’m guessing it’s because wages use amortization, ie sign off fee plus wages spread over the length of contract. I doubt you can spread a one of payment of 16m over time, so has a big immediate hit.

£100 on Seagrave, £80m on Stadium expansion. We've also bought some real rubbish players.
Its about £10m to get rid of Brenton. We just need to do it.
Glad someone got the reference 
Seagrave training facility? If so that nor stadium development would count towards ffp
I think I'll give motd a miss today. Been rocking some kind of migraine all day and I don't think watching another Leicester implosion will do the blood pressure any good. Presumably Leicester have to publish their accounts like any other plc? Anyone on here savvy with that kind of thing to see if they're really so hard up as it's claimed?

Explaining Leicester City’s true Financial Fair Play situation
Leicester City managed to only sign two players in the transfer window, releasing several, loaning one, and selling one. Here is the FFP-shaped reason why.

I didn’t hear it at all and even if there was a few, it wasn’t nearly as many as your lot

You either heard it or you didn't.

one guy at the Liverpool / Ajax game, and he was just shouting 'Liverpool' very loudly, there's been multiple instances in games since the Queen's death of people in crowds not going along with the silence but as Omnom says nothing in the media about it.

I didnt
Id link it but it has every imaginable swear word during a silence.
Thanks to all the rival fans posting vids on twitter, tik tok etc. with their TVs on volume 100 hoping the Liverpool fans would boo, its pretty clear it was one person shouting Liverpool, the rest were telling him to shut up.
