“I noticed a lot of birds on the pitch today, presumably pigeons pecking around for reseeded grass, or maybe looking for the leftover Walkers crisps of the groundsman’s lunch break?” observes Justin Kavanagh. “Strange they’d risk it given there are 23 men running around the field (11 of them foxes, supposedly, although Mendy has been playing like a scarecrow so far).”
Fair point, particularly on a weekend that has shown us no football pitch is safe from prowling cats.
Woolie Madden writes in:
“In a city with a large South Asian population, it’s heartening to see Hamza Choudhury is part of Leicester’s matchday squad. Considering how popular football is with young British Asians, clubs should be doing so much more both in terms of welcoming more Asian fans as spectators are their ground and also developing players into professionals. The other issue is a general lack of role models, as there are just so few British Asian players in general. Hopefully Choudhury makes a success of it at Leicester so that can change, at least.”
