Isnt he too old to play in the development team now?
Which reserves do you mean?
Leicester U21s they play in the Premier League 2 Division 1.
They played today and lost 3-1 to Man City, Eppiah wasn’t in the squad.

Yeah, I saw him give the "play on" signal too.

Overall, I thought he did well. No glaringly obvious errors, and handled the game well I felt.
Yeah I thought he was great they scored in the 5th min of injury time in the first half when he signalled 3 mins and where did 6 mins come from in the second half??
He wasn’t as bad as the ColU ref but the consensus where I was sitting was he was pretty poor, but I guess that’s the league we are in and refs alway get the blame.

Well, well, well……where do I start, I mentioned this issue after the preseason friendly with West Brom, NOTHING has been done, the number of people out side the west stand yesterday trying to get in was ridiculous and on a boiling hot day.
As I have mentioned the fan experience at Northampton is diabolical, it really is just the loyalist of fans that go, is it any surprise we only got 4800 yesterday? Mind you it’s anyones guess as the steward didn’t even look at my ticket and just let everyone in at 2:55.
The club really is a shambles, the ticketing issues aren’t going away either, combine that with pîss poor parking, the general state of the stadium and that horrible stand we’ve had to look at for the last 6 years.
Kelvin Thomas the man who promises fûck all and delivers less.

On the way down to the ground yesterday I was walking behind two Hartlepool fans and I noticed them gesturing to the East stand so I started listening to what they were saying, expecting them to be taking the ****.

"I really like that." said one of them.
"Yeah, when they put boxes in there it will be really smart and make it a decent ground."

Maybe it isn't as bad as we think!
It really won’t, they are from Hartlepool! Grin

Good result for playing the game with 10 men, how on earth did Pinnock stay on the pitch??
We look shaky at the back as well with Maglorie at Center half, Odimayo is mile better than him.
Lennard has to start on Tuesday.
Ref didn’t know the laws of the game.

Rumour from Twitter...Let's just hope we've other irons in the fire...

Understand Cambridge United to be monitoring Leicester city and former #NTFC winger, Josh Eppiah.

Board and manager see player as one for the future and are keen to make a bid.

#CUFC
Just as I had foreseen.  Cool

Great news on Guthrie, best defender in L2 IMHO.
2188  The Hotel End / Cobblers Corner / Re: Summer Transfer window on: August 12, 2022, 12:17:47 pm
As i have said before , Eppiah is on far too much money to bring in permanently . He has a year left to run and he will hardly give that up .
There is concern over injury and not being left paying for a player that can’t play .
Of course , there are solutions to these problems .

12 month loan with a view to a permanent deal, you would probably put a break clause in after 6 months but that can be problematic as we know all to well with Etete.

I work in Hartlepool quite a bit and without being bothered to produce any links to proper evidence, it does seem to be quite a sunny place. Rarely warm, but very often sunny. As a former geography teacher, I could go on about rain shadows and the effects of coastal breezes, can't be bothered this early in the morning. It's certainly sunnier than living in the Peninnes. Although, I don't think I have seen a cloud in the last four weeks, but I suspect that will change on Monday when the white cliffs appear on the horizon.
Wasn’t Hartlepool voted the biggest shįthole in England?
2190  The Hotel End / Cobblers Corner / Re: Summer Transfer window on: August 12, 2022, 11:00:00 am
I expect they are waioting for Leicester to agree to a loan instead of a sale.
Or maybe they want to get him after being released for no fee before a permanent signing?

TBH I would prefer a permanent signing. Theres some risk agreed, but with the loan players we have who might come good (Leonard/Bowie). We get a season then they are gone. Do we want that from Eppiah if he comes, rather he was here on contract, if we lose him after a year we will at least get some compensation

Yeah, agreed, so much better to have your own players and like you say if he comes good he’s our asset to sell.

Taking penalties in front of an expectant crowd… easy right?! It’s a testament to his bottle allied to technique. Most people on here would **** themselves in the same scenario
I was talking once to the physiologist for the German national team and couldn’t  help but ask why they were so good at penalties, he told me that he had coached into them to squeeze their fist five times as they walked up to take the penalty, this would release all the tension and pressure they were experiencing and they would always score. Seemed to work.

Hildeberto Pereira - one of Jimmy-Floyd's odd signings, although he was exciting at times. Got sent off after the final whistle in one game for having a rant at Breakspeare, never a wise thing to do.



Now Hildeberto did get bums off seats  Grin
2193  The Hotel End / Cobblers Corner / Re: Summer Transfer window on: August 12, 2022, 08:23:41 am
In the Chronic it says the club are playing a waiting game, waiting for what exactly? Someone else to buy him.
2194  The Hotel End / Cobblers Corner / Re: Crewe Away - Train Strikes on: August 11, 2022, 16:59:07 pm
I sincerely hope one day we get to have a drink pre cobblers game, it would be a hoot(for me anyway)

I'll buy.
Always been partial to free beer, name the date, big boy.
2195  The Hotel End / Cobblers Corner / Re: Listen to the It's All Cobblers To Me podcast on: August 11, 2022, 12:19:42 pm
I don't expect the answer will be much beyond it's a private business transaction.  The point I was making that whenever these forums take place people ask if someone else will ask a question for them,, very few are prepared to ask questions in public
I’ve got a real problem with a private business transaction excuse because the club takes public money ( in more ways than one) and relies on goodwill from its customers to survive..
2196  The Hotel End / Cobblers Corner / Re: Summer Transfer window on: August 11, 2022, 12:10:16 pm
And get the treatment table ready for action
Given our current financial situation and budget I’d say he’s far and away our best chance of signing a quality player on the same wavelength as Hylton.
Pace is something we need.
2197  The Hotel End / Cobblers Corner / Re: Crewe Away - Train Strikes on: August 11, 2022, 12:06:24 pm
Nearly as bad as a working class tory.
Why?
2198  The Hotel End / Cobblers Corner / Re: Crewe Away - Train Strikes on: August 11, 2022, 06:55:21 am
French part, but dislike champagne- and not really a socialist but simply despise the current ruling incumbents in Westminster together with the blindingly obvious conclusion Brexit was crass folly - Evers is right though to a degree in best to keep politics out but always difficult not to respond when the subject is raised isn’t it?
It is indeed Peter, I really like Switzerland and have friends there in the German speaking part, Zug and Zürich.
2199  The Hotel End / Cobblers Corner / Re: Crewe Away - Train Strikes on: August 10, 2022, 22:37:23 pm
Moi? - champagne socialist of course 😀
The worst kind.
German French or Italian Switzerland?
2200  The Hotel End / Cobblers Corner / Re: Summer Transfer window on: August 10, 2022, 22:33:09 pm
….. you called ? !
Better looking at young premier targets than lower league failures .

Let’s get the Eppiah deal done.
