Kitchandro Posted 26 February 2017 Share Posted 26 February 2017 We're below Palace, Swansea, Burnley, West Brom, Stoke, Middlesbrough & Bournemouth. ALL smaller clubs than us, so people can sod off with their 'natural level' bullshit first off. Secondly, where you have been historically is irrelevant when you've spent the amount of money we have and when you know the squad is so much better than it is performing. People need to accept that we badly underachieved 2 seasons ago, being bottom for as long as we were was a joke due largely to Pearson's poor tactics. This squad isn't an obvious title winning one, but nor is it an obvious relegation one. It's just as daft to say we should expect to go down as it is to say we should expect to finish in the top 4. We have massively underperformed this season, anyone who says otherwise is an idiot. Top 7 should have been easily achievable but the whole club has let itself down. It's not all Ranieri's fault at all but it's not been good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm subbed to quite a few podcasts and YouTube channels and I've yet fo see anyone properly analyse our situation objectively. It's been lots of emotional outbursts and bashing of our club.

Chuck in this year and it'll have been 5 seasons since we just did nothing. I'd kill for just a dull season where nothing happens at this point. Put like that Doctor I see your point..............

steflcfc Posted 26 February 2017 Share Posted 26 February 2017 I wouldn't say any team has a "normal level" Every side has the potential (especially in the top flight) of having a potentially excellent or poor season. Many factors Pre start of the league campaign can shape a season like a change of manager, massive influx/exodus of players, Board Issues. But overall the league table doesn't lie in any division, over the course of a season, the best team wins it and the worse 3/4 go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would just help if you could make your point a bit clearer - you out of all people (including the other older posters on here) ought to know what it means supporting this club. We've seen enough excitement to fill books or make a documentary about it! I guess we're all longing for stability - thing is, this club has a habit of kicking you in the nuts just when you think they've done it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterborofox Posted 26 February 2017 Share Posted 26 February 2017 This level thing is bollocks. What defines the level? You can't tell me that Stoke, Wba, West Ham have considerably better players than us. All this level thing is bollocks. Should after last season be easily a mid table team. The fact we have spunked our chance doesn't mean we are where we deserve to be. Just such a shame we have wasted money and chance to become a similar club to likes of Everton, a top eight sort of side. Sick of also hearing this fluke league win also. Flukes happen in cups. Great teams win leagues. You don't fluke a 38 game season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the feedback By the way I used to be on here as Welsh Blue or Something like that but it might have been on another forum. I've been reading this stuff for years but never got around to joining again. Perhaps updating my profile would help And yes I was in the Costa del Sol last week, not at the game ( obviously ) but in a bar in my shirt leaping around like I was 10 again when Vardy scored. But my week was spoiled by my missus shouting down from the balcony..................... Chic they've sacked Claudio. So I'm a bit grumpy, angry, confused and worried. Hope that's clear. Take Care MC and hold on tight it's going to be a bumpy ride................. again. Ps: Older posters ????? I'm 18...............

HybridFox Posted 26 February 2017 Share Posted 26 February 2017 Has anyone just stopped watching TV analysis this year? I used to love all the pre-match hour build-up hyping up a game, and also see how these "experts" rated our performance afterwards. But the absoulte dross that comes out of their mouths these days is unreal. Paid thousands of pounds to waffle on live TV about turd. (cant be a hard life! ) Bang on the TV for the start of the and its off once the final whistle blows. Cannot stand these pundits anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Money doesn't earn you a rightful place and comments like these makes us sound like the pundits we're currently criticising for saying as such. We aren't where we are rightfully, but we are deservedly. We should be fighting a relegation battle because our results have left us in one, capt. obvious I know. You are missing the point I think. The thread is about pundits being condescending to the club in by saying we ought to be in relegation fight, solely because we are little Leicester who has no history of continuity in the PL.

No I understand, and I'm not targeting anybody in particular. But there's people saying we SHOULD be higher than the Stokes and WBAs of the league but also getting their knickers twisted by pundits claiming we are where we SHOULD be. If somebody would care to explain to me what position we SHOULD be in and why, that would be great. I'm pretty sure that based on the games so far, we should be 15th, but we shouldn't just accept 15th. I'm rambling and losing my point lol.
