“The burning question is which Leicester City will show up tomorrow? If it's the side that bombarded the Bluebirds for 25 minutes last Saturday & we convert some of the chances we create, we'll have half a chance. If it's the side that decided not to come out for the second half lady Saturday, we could be out of the play off positions tomorrow night.
A personal plea to Pearson...if you have a player who is playing better than the other 10 players combined, please leave him ON the pitch...he can't do any damage from the dugout!”

“Tough game tomorrow,from memory I don't think Hull have drawn a game this season, there's style is like Swansea, passing attractive football. I think to get a result where going to have to soak up Hulls onslaught and try and hit them on the counter. if we play to there strengths of you attack we attack they've proved this season that there's no better team in division playing to that style. Hulls danger men for me are koren and aluko, give either of them space and they'll hurt us, we all remember korens goal last year. my biggest doubt for tomorrow is that Hull have won 10 out of the last 12 games and they've got the momentum, also our away records terrible. in my opinion it will be a good game but I have to go with my head that's telling me Hull will win, I think we're unlucky in playing two of the divisions form teams back to back.”

“Boozyfox: something you may have overlooked: in any normal world Nugent and Beckford would be our strikers, but Beckford's 9 in 46 didn't do the job. Nigel rates Waggie who will become a fine player but is still recovering fitness and confidence following appalling injury. Vardy was supposed to spend this season gearing up to the higher level, not score as first-choice striker. Futacs was also bought for the future. Beckford's failures in front of goal, followed by his selfishness (he won't run for others) cost us last season, and he's costing us now. Nigel spent what he was allowed on wingers. Maybe he should have signed a finisher, not a Knockaert. But he has got us playing decent football. The next month, results and signings (McKay back?) decide our season.”

“Heskeys was at best a holding player. Bellamy is a goal scorer. We already scare defences but our strikers can't score goals. Merry Xmas Ash”

“Craig Bellamy is Cardiff born and bred, that adds a edge to his game, playing his last years at a club he supported has a boy, I sometimes wonder where we would be if we had Emile Heskey in the team, he would scared most defences to death, January will be interesting”

“Boozyfox, every signing is a gamble, you mention that Pearson wasted millions on Jamie Vardy well that was 1million, but did he not sign Anthony Knockeart who is probably worth twice the amount paid, Wes Morgan arguably the best centre half in the championship, posters opinions are usually based on the negatives but there are still a lot of positives, a couple of weeks ago we nicked a centre half from Forest, A 20 year old in the name of Karlton Watson who will be knocking on the door soon, he has made more good signings than bad signings in my view.
Foxfan1, hope your enjoying your stay in sunny Leicester has not stopped raining.
Merry Christmas everyone”

“I tend to agree with dontbelieveit, Cardiff are top on merit, but we were the better side on Saturday for sure. We have proved that we are at least as good as the likes of Cardiff. The need for another goal scorer as most on here realise is all to evident and let's hope NP can bring someone in the new year, Stigman I think set piece crosses and corners have been very much improved over recent weeks when Waggy has been taking them but the crosses from open play were not up to scratch on Saturday. Some talk about the difference in premier league quality strikers and our own, but in reality Bellamy did little else on the day and had Nuge had the same chance I'm sure he would have taken it. I also think Kasper was guilty of gifting them possession with far too many over hit clearances.
Good summing up Kapero, but all we can do is imagining about the likes of Bellamy, there are very few experienced strikers available.”
