    looking back now, are we entitled to know was the board hamstringing Brendan in terms of players on Brendan's transfer list or the board telling him to wind it in, and was this a reason Brendan didn't kick on in Europe and in his last year. Nonetheless he still kept standards, professionalism high and conducted himself well - look at that james maddison interview last night, you can see all the Leicester team have bought into it - it is so sad, annoying and frustrating that our levels have dropped so much since lennon came in - talking about buses, changing room size - everything and anything but the improvements on the training ground to ensure the team learn from their mistakes, become more savvy in cames and show a passion and real want to win the games and push on :(

    * this game, could win 10-0 and I'm still gonna feel numb and detached from the club right.

    I just can't find the energy to watch this knowing the pitch will be a disgusting plastic waste trap and it will used as an excuse for some turgid * bore draw.

    Bigger questions need asked about these pitches and the clubs ability to maintain a pitch of any kind.

    2021, we really shouldn't be having clubs in the professional top league unable to heat a pitch for a couple days to combat mild- moderate wintry weather.

    If keeping the heaters on to make sure they can fulfill fixtures is too much to ask, they really shouldn't be a professional club for * sake.

    There really hasnt been that many what if moments in this regard.
    All that is wishful thinking and as much as we could pretend what may have been, the bottom line is we are * * and no chance going on a sustained run.

    As they say, it is the hope that kills.

    * amateurs, they knew the forecast was for snow overnight and they've done nothing about it, how much does a pitch cover cost ffs. And judging by the time of these photos they still had't done anything about by half ten, * sums up the SP Professional League imo.

    I was always under the impression these teams had artificial surfaces to avoid having the expense of undersoill heating?

    from 8am they should have had the heaters on (in fact for days they should have, but I'm allowing them to be cheap *) and a grounds team out shoveling the (looks to be) 2 inch of snow and letting the under heat melt away anything else and help ease it.

    Byt midday that should have been a clear pitch with a watchful eye on the weather over the afternoon.

    Instead - it looks like 3 lads stood around kicking the snow and having a yarn trying to decide if they can be * to do anything about it.

    I'm no sure, bit conflicted with the info being put out by various accounts, I would assume they would still surely have some sort of underheating? otherwise it's a plastic ice rink most of winter then?
