โ๐ป With the 2020 season over, a piece on @leicscccโs T20 run. Focus on: inexperience outfoxing veterans, tangible progress, underrated talent, & why Dan Christianโs adage of โold blokes win stuffโ is to be further challenged by @Paulnico199โs young side ๐ฆ shug96sport.wordpress.com/20โฆ
Some season from the boys. ๐ฆ๐
Been an honour to report on every step of our journey to becoming Champions. Bring on Division One. โ๏ธ๐ฒ
What a season! So proud of what these boys have achieved. ๐
Still one thing left to add in the coming week or twoโฆ๐

We've done it! After 22 years away, Leicestershire will play Division One cricket in 2026. ๐ฅณ
THIS TEAM. THIS CLUB. ๐

The greatest player Iโve ever watched. Someone who embodied the fight and passion we all wanted to see, and shithoused opposition fans for fun. ๐
My GOAT. ๐ #lcfc
Great to do a bit of a deeper dive with Chris. Not many fast bowlers play at 40, but his dedication to fitness and to keep improving is incredible.
These are always my favourite pieces to write, so Iโm looking forward to penning a few more in this series during pre-season. โ๏ธ

Even if Bilal had one leg amputated at half-time, Iโd still have kept him on over Ayew. ๐ซฃ #lcfc

That goal capped a very impressive display from Faes, stemming from what made his performance so good. Defending on the front foot and aggressive in the press throughout.
Can often be his downfall, but if he selects when to โattackโ more judiciously, he deserves to start. #lcfc

I enjoyed watching Pearsonโs Leicester in the Prem, even when we couldnโt buy a win.
I didnโt enjoy watching Puelโs Leicester, but I appreciated the challenges of trying to implement a new style to take us forward.
I donโt enjoy watching or understand Cooperโs approach. #lcfc
Get in there! No surprise Fatawu changed the game. ๐ซ
Missed the first half, so to me weโre the best team in world football. ๐

Devastated to read the news about Craig Shakespeare. A very likeable man and an unsung hero who played a key part in Leicester Cityโs success during his time at the club. Rest in peace, Shakey. ๐ #LCFC

If Jamie Vardy replies to this tweet, I might combust. Two of the gameโs greats right here. ๐

I think that the most straightforward and appropriate words I can write now are - Andy King, I can categorically say, you are a manager's dream.
In his younger days, he was a player with drive, ability and goals. In his pomp, a player with drive, ability, goals and influence. In his renaissance years, a player with ability, knowledge, influence, empathy, coaching ability, not so many goals, but a personality that is worth everything to a football club. Anyone who knows anything about the game, knows exactly what a character like @AndyKingy delivers, on and off the field.
Your career, my friend, has been one I admire. Why? Because you are one of the very few who has maximised the gifts you have. Good luck for tomorrow, enjoy your time with your lovely family, and best wishes for your future whatever you decide to do next. Cheers, Nige.

A privilege to speak to one of cricketโs all-time greats, Sir Andy Roberts, yesterday. ๐ฌ
Itโs not every day you get to speak to a legend of his stature, probably my highest-profile interview to date. Really proud to put together this feature on his career. โ๏ธ

Iโd take an 80 point deduction next season if it meant we could sign Fatawu on a permanent deal. What a boy! ๐ฆ๐ซ #lcfc

โI donโt think Fatawu is the kind to chase back.โ
Fuck off, Jonathan Pearce. Do your research. #lcfc
