Leicester Vs Derby

Is anybody else watching this dire game of football? 

Both teams made lots of changes only one player has stood out for me and that's Anya of Derby, huffed and puffed but no ones getting on the end of his crosses into the box.

Anybody want to hazard a guess at who'll win and what score?

Agree with you @TheFostarr94 , Anya been the most dangerous if that's not to strong a term to use , but what's this a goal Leicester

@Who r ya?? You Pies!! hopefully this game will pick up now, I've got nothing better to do tonight so it needs to get interesting! 

Posted

Hahaha yes hopefully it will @TheFostarr94 , was just about to quit before that and go on CoD on Xbox , but I'll persist now .

Glad this second half has been interesting, couldn't be any worse.. 1-1 game on! 

 

If Leicester go out anybody think Leicester will sack Ranieri? I know he had the vote of confidence but that means nothing nowadays in football.

I don't think they'll sack him yet, but I can't understand changing the team so much. A win tonight with the regular team might have given them a boost.

@Riverleeno video technology should be considered would definitely make games fairer but would it ruin football as we know it?

in Rugby that would have gone to the video ref or whatever he's called, but don't think it would work with football - in Rugby there are pauses in the game anyway.

Some good points there guys , video ref hmmm has its place maybe , I'm a bit old school for that , think the imperfections of  football decisions make it what it is and certainly get the crowd going , goal line technology is good , Leicester 2 -1 up , don't think they'll sack him yet myself even if they lose .

It could be made to work quite easily. You have a 5th official watching the TV coverage in radio contact who informs the ref as he watches the game carry on. Just like giving the advantage, seeing it doesn't come to anything and going back to give the original foul.

think there would need to be some communication from the Ref as to why the game has been pulled back (like American football) but I'd be interested to see a system like that trialled @ivansneck

No player in Leicester shirt deserved that goal more than Gray..

Anya was good in the first half but drifted away in the second half..

As for video technology in football I think it could work but there's alot of ifs, buts and maybes..

To be fair, Derby played quite well in the first match - they took a back seat and allowed a very poor Leicester City back into the game.

I mean part of me says they worked hard to get it, yet the amount of chances they had and created after the 75th minute was very wasteful. Carson looked like he was in no mans land, he also appeared to have the Notts backline in front of him. Derby defended very poorly, just look at the equaliser - they had a man on the line!

Didn't see the replay, though the Foxes seemed doomed.

I said ages back to @Joe Jones and various friends on another site that Leicester would be in a relegation battle. :(

Its true and I still think they'll end up bottom of the Premier League.

Short and to the point [mention=217]ivansneck[/mention] . No on the fence with you pal .

I used to officiate in professional rugby league. We've had the video ref for over 20 years!!

The referee should signal to the crowd what every free kick is given for, as in rugby league!

I streamed highlights, I was not impressed. Two poor teams at the end of the day, so who's lucky?
