Some people come on here specifically to argue and pick fights don't they lol. Weirdos

If we win our next game, our points tally will have got us automatic promotion in a fair few of the last 10 years. Another win and it's pretty much all of the last 10 years. It's a shame the last few games have made people forget just how good we have been this season on the whole and how relentless the 4 chasers have been too. High chance there will be 4 teams on 90+ points which I'm sure will never have happened, in recent times anyway

How am I being mardy Don't get many 4th choice EFL strikers becoming PL regulars the season after. Happy for him to prove me wrong as I like the guy but can't see him being given the opportunity
-
Weird because the thought was that it was his signing at the start of the season. Was a bit random
-
Win the FA Cup and become financially crocked with 46 league games and European tour next season, or win promotion to ease financial concerns and stand greater chances of winning the FA Cup in the future? Hmm
-
May aswell bin Cannon off if we go up. I've no issue with him and feel sorry for him given he did alright around the new year period before being dropped for Daka when he returned. But if he's 4th rated here behind two people who are more than likely not gonna be here next season then is he really going to be trusted in the PL?

I've just looked at other teams run ins and they have some decent sides at best like Coventry and Sunderland to play, that's it. Then I looked at ours and besides Hull and Southampton, it's fairly straight forward on paper.

Thought the LCFC forum was bad after a few defeats on the spin, then I witnessed the reaction to winning a game despite not playing well

Leicester 1-0 Sunderland Post Match Thread.

What a mistake coming in here blimey -
And no DNFs. Atleast 20 years ago, maybe even 10 years ago there was always a threat of something going wrong even if you had a dominant car
-
Yeah now I'm concerned

Some recovery from facing the wrong way after T1 to 10th for somebody worse than Luca Badoer

Absurd comment

Because it reeks of people reading something on the internet that they have little knowledge of, and choosing to roll with it, particularly the Stroll stuff. There's no doubt he jumped to F1 very quickly considering his experience but he won things at junior levels, and don't recall him looking like a fish out of water in his first couple of years. He'll never be World Champion material but that can be said against atleast half of the current grid. People dislike him because of his privileged position, take that away and you've got a driver who is no worse than the likes of Magnussen, Zhou, Giovanazzi of times gone by and arguably even Hulkenberg in terms of achievements in F1. You don't see any negativity towards those drivers. He got pole in ridiculous conditions a few years ago and was going well in the race until I think the team cocked up bringing him in too soon? You don't do that stuff if you're talentless. He seems to lack one lap pace but in races he's solid enough, not exactly a crash merchant. If the 4 teams behind Red Bull are as close as they were yesterday for the season then it will be very minor points he's fighting for because of course he's inferior to Alonso and they probably are the 5th best car if you had to choose, or will be later in the season based off how they declined last year. As for the engine stuff, will put my neck on the line here but the major regulation change in 2017 was nothing to do with engines. 14-16 Merc had insane speed and decent reliability. I am certain any huge advantage they had in 17 onwards was gone. They shared wins frequently with Ferrari for the first half of the season before pulling away at the end in 17/18 or 18/19 (can't remember) Ultimately though the regulation changes in 2017 weren't so much about the engine like in 2014. I feel there was a change again in 2020 which was probably their most dominant year since 2016, again not engine change regulations. They mastered multiple changes and it's not all because of the engine. But yes these current regulations are right up Newey's street
-
The usual crap being rolled out I see Stroll the worst driver ever to have breathed? Merc 5th best team? Mercedes only had a good engine? What? First few years of the turbo era sure. There was a big shift in regulations in 2017 which they mastered and to a lesser extent in 19 or 20 I think? If Merc really are the 5th best team then they are like a tenth off being the 2nd best if qualifying is anything to go by. It was fairly close in qualifying last year and then the grid spreads for the race. If the same thing happens tomorrow then it's much the same as 2023 with Ferrari/Merc/McLaren/Aston Martin taking points off each other and a title effectively wrapped up by June

Have Chelsea ever had a domestic away draw? Seriously

Bournemouth FA Cup (a) Match Thread
Brainy replied to urban.spaceman's topic in Leicester City Forum
I didn't realise this was on BBC. Was watching for a whole 15 seconds and he goes and does that -
Funny most people seemed to love his scripted commentary before he joined Sky funny how a bigger platform changes people's opinions. Totally agree though they're all annoying, but if they're gonna insist on this format whack an ex Chelsea player in there too. The channel is literally Neville & Carragher

****ing fanzone commentary, what the hell are you playing at Sky

Luke Thomas to Middlesbrough until the end of the season
Brainy replied to DZ-LCFC's topic in Leicester City Forum
The hostility towards this guy is just weird. With the offence being taken at some of his performances (if we're to believe Tyler_Boro from X, formerly known as Twitter) you'd think he was stinking up our team, not somebody else's
