It was going well until the final 15 minutes or so. Damn shame we let in the late goals, but that is so typically Leicester. Missed too many really good chances -- and you just bloody knew what was going to happen. And it kept going downhill once Leeds scored their first. Players of note for me were Faes, Vestergaard, Ricardo, Winks, KDH, Daka, and Mavadidi.

Leicester's match week 33 is complete. 1-0-1 in the last two matches. Status: 78 of 93 points required for automatic promotion. Current points rate is 2.36/match. 1.15 points/match required for the rest of the season (15 points from 13 matches). We have a 11-point gap over third place (Southampton, who have a game in hand). We have 83.9% of the required points for automatic promotion after 71.7% of the season.

Bump in the road. The entire squad seemed oddly out of sorts today. Boro counterattacked very well and took full advantage of their first-half chances. Meanwhile we missed two fabulous headed chances in that same half. Vardy pulled a goal back late, but the comeback was not to be. Still top of the league, still have a significant gap to third place. On we go.

Nice to have Chris Kavanagh as an extra defender!

I hope Mavididi isn't injured. If he isn't, seems an odd substitution.

Unfortunately, that is always a possibility when playing the very high defensive line. One of our defenders fell down, Vesty couldn't catch up, which led to the 3 on 1 (keeper).

Damn.

Two fabulous headed chances thus far, just need to get them on target. Goals are coming...

The ESPN+ stream is working for me, in Colorado. Maybe the old trick of re-logging?

Like the starters, like the bench. I really believe Praet just needs match time to fully rediscover his form. Smash these!

Apologies mate, I started the thread and I am a Yank. I thought about using the word 'maths', but I wasn't sure it was correct usage. I also thought I would come across as a pretentious **** if I used the term wrong.

Shame to hear that ref Sam Allison may have missed a penalty, as many of you are saying. I had the match on (muted as I am on the work clock), but missed the play. Sometimes the ref simply doesn't and/or can't see the offence. No VAR, no replay, no help.

Leicester's match week 31 is complete. Status: 75 of 93 points required for automatic promotion. Current points rate is 2.42/match. 1.20 points/match required for the rest of the season (18 points from 15 matches). We have a 12-point gap over third place (Leeds). We have 80.6% of the required points for automatic promotion after 67.4% of the season.

Not the best performance ever, but Watford only rarely threatened to score. Onward and upward.

"Come out to see the amazing one-legged footballer!"

Only one more substitution window remaining.

Good work from Ben today. Also good to see Callum getting a run out.

I was just about to post that we needed someone to show some attacking intent... Then a precise pass from the defense, a threatening run from Ricardo, a one-two set of passes with Fatawu, and boom! a goal!

Aaron Cresswell -- West Ham v Leicester -- 2015-16 season. Not the best quality of video, sorry.

As was said before, 93 points has always got a team automatically promoted in the history of the Championship. Of course, any particular year can be an outlier, and this one might be. Good thing we have the potential to garner well more than 93 points, in case they are needed.

Leicester's match week 30 is complete. Other clubs have one or two games in hand. Status: 72 of 93 points required for automatic promotion. Current points rate is 2.40/match. 1.31 points/match required for the rest of the season (21 points from 16 matches). We have a 12-point gap over third place (Leeds). We have 77.4% of the required points for automatic promotion after 65.2% of the season.

A really complete game. Good work from all.

Peno for Leicester! KDH is taken down.

I haven't perused the entire thread, but many comments are of this ilk: "We're sh*t." "Our defenders don't even seem to care." "Why do I support this club?" "Same crap, over and over."

My god, do not visit the oatcake fanzine forum! Rarely seen a more negative match thread.
