Stanley…………..Talk to Us
Peter Gilbert.

How many City fans I wonder the world over had the news broken to them that our Jewel in the Crown had ceased to glisten?

‘Yeah it’s true, he’s gone ha ha ha..’

It’s one of those occasions when you want to slope off and be alone awhile, give yourself time to think, time to come to terms with it. Various thoughts flickered through my head as I began to understand the situation.

Against Stan Going

He’s the only striker with any class in the club.

He’s worth paying as much as Neil Lennon.

He was getting back to fitness.

Personally I would have been unhappy on the bench every week, it’s as if PT was trying to provoke him into action of some sort.

When he came on the pitch we definitely went up a gear.

How much will he cost to replace (I said the same when Emile went)

He’s entitled to be ‘pissed off’ if the manager doesn’t give him a chance to go out and play for 90 mins.

If his header against the bar against Everton had gone in would all this have happened.

It seems like a personal vendetta, there’s more to it than meets the eye.

For Stan Going

We can’t have any slackers.

No-one is bigger than the club (including you PT)

He’s trouble with a capital T.

He’s getting on a bit.

He’s lazy.

He’s not getting fitter.

But hey……………come on he’s Stan the Man and PT will look pretty silly if the results fade and the ‘good natured’ Leicester crowd get at him. How are we going to crack open defences without something unusual.

I could be wrong of course, PT could be lining up a top man to play upfront.

We’ll see…………….he’d better………we don’t want to be mucked about just because he’s had a bit of a run in.
