I'm glad this has given fans of clubs other than the giant few renewed hope that it's no longer a closed shop at the top. I've always had a soft spot for Wednesday. Really happy you stopped Cardiff (hate em) getting your play-off place, and with style. Now go and win it! I'd love to see you stuff Derby at Wembley. All the best.

All the best. Cardiff didn't turn up mate....I doubt whoever we get next will make the same mistake...but much as I would like to make this about us...The days yours.... I'll be honest..I kept betting on you lads blowing it...after Christmas...sort of...great effort but its gonna catch 'em in the end...You look at Arsenal, the Manchester clubs...the money...and you sort of start writing the "Hard luck Foxes, you gave it a right go" thing...Then it took a life of its own on... On the Kop at Hillsborough, you usually check The Blades score first...then whoever is vying with you in whatever league you are in...last few games......"Hows Leicester doin"... Never usually bothered with Sky "Super Sunday"...same weary old format of "City v United...Spurs V Arsenal"..all of a sudden..everyone is watching football teams other than their own again. I thought I was past being a football supporter...watching Wednesday over the last few years has been like visiting a sick relative in hospital....You don't really want to go, but feel you have to... Now?...well owt could happen...and funnily enough..it just has

Now?...well owt could happen...and funnily enough..it just has You weren't the only one who thought we had no chance, obviously. I don't think most of us really believe what's just happened yet. I'd always thought the best I could ever hope for was a top half finish and maybe an elusive FA Cup. The fact that we've done it so soon after spending months and months on end at rock bottom, and by spending a relative pittance beggar's belief. A sick relative! Haha! Most of us who've been fans for a few years know exactly what you mean. I think most people are aware of our first (and hopefully last) venture into the 3rd tier, but the years leading up to that were enough to test the patience of a saint. I can remember Craig Levein saying one summer that he'd gone for quality over quantity in the transfer market. We ended up with a tiny squad made up of shite SPL rejects. I can remember trying to convince myself years ago that maybe our team was alright, even though all the evidence was to the contrary. How far we've come. Never give up hope. You need to go through the bad times to feel like many of us Leicester fans do now. You never know if the next owners or manager you get will turn out to be your best ever.
