[Albion] Leicester City vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Psychobilly freakout]

We seem to get Hooper rather a lot.

Yeah, he does seem to come a round a fair bit for us.

Mike Dean says he will still officiate Wednesday's FA Cup game between Leicester and Brighton, but at his own request is not going to referee a game at the weekend in the Premier League due to abuse he has received on social media.

Has NSC stopped converting 'Mike Dean' to The Complete etc., etc?

Edit: It obviously has!

Have to say I am relaxed about this one. I'll be pleased if we win but don't mind if we lose. How far do we want to go in the cup?

Our league position could worsen again . We don't want unnecessary fixtures. For a Premier club it is only remembered if you win it. Remember
We played the semi-final two years ago and lost and a month later Hughton was sacked.....

I'd like to win it obviously. Is there anyone who doesn't?

Have a little belief. We have a good squad with injured players coming back and eager youngsters looking to prove their worth. We're a better side than 2 years ago

10 clear of the drop zone is time for a tilt at Wembley glory

A month ago I thought we had no chance. Now, I’m oddly optimistic.

I'm perfectly happy to keep typing out the complete and utter shyster .... whilst totally condemning threats made to him

Mike Dean, Mike Dean
54 yellows and 6 red cards

He's a national disgrace.

If you've just sung that to the Mike Read Radio 1, tune you're older than you look.

Well, I totally condemn death threats too - no idea why anyone would think otherwise. Just asking a question - and by typing 'Mike Dean' and then seeing what the post looked liked I answered the question.

Leicester have a excellent squad and could make 10 changes and still make this tough for us , looking forward to the game though and fully expect a Tau hatrick , apparently if he starts we can't lose .

 

[BNthree]

Really intrigued as to what sort of side Leicester and ourselves put out tonight. Without knowing how many players are being rested/injured or others being given a chance it is very hard to tell how this one will play out.

Press conference title is for Newport

I took it that it was deliberate as all press conferences are much of the same just insert Leciester for Newport

I hope we go for it tonight, Leicestershire will rest a few of their players for their pivotal race to fourth place mega match against Liverpools. We’ve got a comfy little gap on the bottom three and surety the point of playing the game is to actually try and win something.

Play our strongest team.

I think the starting XI will be much stronger than most people are guessing.

The difference might be more and earlier substitutions. We can make 5 subs, plus one more in extra time.

I'd expect to an experienced side, with the likes of Moder and Karbo bought on after an hour

The only thing Leicester is famous for is CHEESE. The football team aren't that grate.

 

[RandyWanger]

Come on Potter make the right pick and progress us through the cup

From the Leicester Mercury:
Sidnei Tavares and Vontae Daley-Campbell are in line to make their Leicester City debuts in tonight’s FA Cup clash with Brighton and Hove Albion after their involvement in first-team training, Jamie Vardy is likely to appear off the substitute’s bench.

...to score the winning goal in an otherwise turgid affair.

 

[MattBackHome]

I'm excited!

 

[WATFORD zero]

Against the flow it appears, but come on Graham, there's a couple of handfuls of balls you shouldn't put in tonight
