Pretty much 😀 Guess they know what they are and happy to have that every year. In an ideal world we’d have eked out a couple of 14th placed finishes whilst we rebuilt but we are Leicester City and don’t do that sort of thing!
-
Just hope Burnley are at most only 2 points behind going into the last day, they have 3 games that look pretty tough on paper. Burnley fixtures Man Utd A Newcastle H Spurs A Forest H Forest fixtures Man City H Sheff Utd A Chelsea H Burnley A Think Luton will go anyway after yesterdays thrashing but they have the easier run in Wolves A Everton H West Ham A Fulham H Have a feeling Burnley have left it too late and Luton have run out of steam

the crazy thing about following this football club is that this time next week we could on the verge of promotion or wondering why we’re 4th. a basketcase football club in a basketcase league

Brian Littles first season had some great aways, Southend already been mentioned, Swindon first day of the season was a laugh, Notts County in the ZDF(?) Blackburn Completely different feel back then but that’s probably more society changing over time. Yes there was still some trouble but nothing like the 80s so it was probably a sweet spot of the game changing after Italia 90 but before the gradual sterility of the modern atmosphere the top level in England

Meltdown at Sky incoming , the ‘best ever title race’ fizzles out with 6 games left.

I won’t give up the season ticket but I have enjoyed watching a few AFC Hinckley games this season.Reckin i’ll just watch them when we are away

Think we’ll have to get use to seeing gates back down to around 26000 as I can see a few people calling it a day. Any new manager won’t come in till we know what points we are going to be deducted, what funds there are, if any, how long will the transfer embargo be in place. It is going to be a really tough season, if they bring in the wrong manager league 1 is not out of the question. It’s impossible to say at this moment, perhaps next season is the real reset not this one. Major problem will be is that we’ll still have too many players on moronic wages

Get him gone and focus on the play offs

That rancid peach kit !
-
Just win! He can’t complain about fatigue if we lose tonight, it’s a large squad that he appears to refuse to rotate. Win or bust tonight, tense sort of atmosphere but generally good spirits here
-
Seen a few AFC Hinckley games, best mate goes to all their games, presentation day tomorrow after last home game vs Bilston. I’ll be knackered though as i’m at Plymouth tonight.

Is this the most stressful season as a Leicester fan ?
whetstonefox replied to marcymarc666's topic in Leicester City Forum
Not that stressed as I expect continuing disappointment nowadays from LCFC. -
Bit different to Man City Arsenal last week!
-
It felt like yesterday was the first time this season we were up for a promotion atmosphere, right from the off. Heres hoping it carries on for the rest of the season
-
What would it take to turn on the owners?
whetstonefox replied to MattFox's topic in Leicester City Forum
Perhaps yesterday was about helping the team get over the line. I’m am sure we are all a bit peeved about the financial results but from kick off it was about the football not the accounts. Ipswich losing probably put an extra spring in everyone’s step. Not saying there should be some sort of anger directed against the management of the club but yesterday was never going to be a day of protest. -
Until Ipswich are 5-0 down after 98 minutes will i feel confident they won’t pull it back
-
I just hope if we are ever in a position to challenge the top end of the premier league again that performance bonuses and a lower basic keep things in check. May mean we lose out on some players but we’d avoid collecting so much unsaleable dross. Actually curious what sort of bonus set up we have or is that not a thing in top flight football anymore?
-
I find it staggering that neither Whelan and Rudkin have quit . They are showing no respect to either LCFC or Top.Even if he hadn’t requested their resignations they should still have been offered.
-
I fear Hull will do a Leicester at Leeds , missing chances , totally dominant
-
It’s not hatred ( I don’t think😀) it’s more annoyance that you keep winning late (an admirable quality) and that we are so desperate as a club to get promoted with all the off field stuff that we are in a 3 horse race for 2 places. If we’re still 17 points clear we’d have been cheering you onto 2nd place.
-
Southampton looking dodgy at the back is not a bad thing considering we are due to play them in a few weeks, they just need to avoid any cock ups today. Other argument is that Southampton have more quality so perhaps a draw is the best result
-
Given the nature of the goal we conceded , was good to see what then transpired. Roll on Saturday!
-
Being financially secure is one thing , being financially savvy is another. It’s how the place is being run , not necessarily knowing they, King Power, have the money which they clearly have.

Let’s really get behind the lads today, such an important game. That said if it is apparent they can’t be bothered they need to be called out as well, and win or lose let’s hope the stadium is not half empty at full time, either cheer them off to the rafters or aim the chants towards the club, not that they appear to care. Today has to be the day the fans awake from their coma.
