Apart from the sole fact of being in the premier league (and the money that comes with it), I see no positive from staying up. I am convinced if by some miracle we do, the board will just consider this a fluke year and nothing will change. It will be the same shit board, with the same shit players, with the same shit mentality minus our 3 “best” players.It would be an unmitigated disaster of a season. With relegation, there is at least some hope that there will be major overhaul changes and we get our Leicester from a few seasons ago back Disagree. Have you seen the timescales to the first game in the Championship? There is about 8 weeks to get everything in shape. i have no faith they even know where to start and who the outgoings are going to be. Was posted somewhere that even the likes of KDH believe they are off. We don't have a rebuild on our hands, we have a blood bath. If we stayed up i dont think the board will look at is as a fluke year at all. Something was always up this season, and i think the strategy was to just get through this one but the drop off has caught everyone by surprise. Stay up and i would put money on them doing anything they could to ensure this didn't happen again. Go down, i think they have no idea where to start. 1

But it could be a very weak West Ham side against Leeds on Sunday - second-string and/or knackered. Particularly as mathematically they're 99.9% safe. They're already guaranteed to finish above us and Saints - and Leeds could only overtake them on goal difference with 2 wins v. 2 defeats and an 11-goal GD turnaround. Pretty strong odds of Leeds winning on Sunday. We might be relying on Leeds incompetence. The silver lining is that a Leeds win might end up sending Forest down......but we'll probably need to create our own miracle, I think.

Not some smarmy communications director spinning the fans a load of bollocks. Rudkin, Whelan, Top. I know it's not the "done thing" at City, but these are extraordinary circumstances. Sit them down and ask some tough questions. Not some drone employed by the club's media department prompting meaningless platitudes - a proper journalist. Time accept responsibility and take accountability for the mess the club is in. The fans deserve answers and the silence is absolutely deafening. ...are we looking for Bourne to be doing it or Percy!!! 1
kiwiturk Posted 19 May 2023 Posted 19 May 2023 It is so bloody ironic that it is our midfielders taking us down now they were the ones took us to stardom before. Not a single of them has played decent 2 games in a row this season. They can all F**k off now. 1
blueharmie Posted 19 May 2023 Posted 19 May 2023 (edited) This is the most weak minded , spinless bunch of cowards I've ever seen in Leicester shirts. Born losers that don't give a single fvck. Apart from vardy (and Kel) I want to slap each and everyone of them with a massive whole salmon. I'd also suggest top needs to take a long hard look at what he has let happen at lcfc. See you all in the championship, these bottlers will get smashed the last two games. Pathetic ran club. Edited 19 May 2023 by blueharmie 4

John12345 Posted 20 May 2023 Posted 20 May 2023 Im sure its been written before here, and it's no consolation ,but I think this would have happened next season if we had managed to scrape to safety. It's inevitable due to chronic mismanagement. I don't think we will come back up in 23/24, there's too much to sort out. The positives are we have a great brand now and if sold, very desirable. I hope new owners, ideas and investment come in. What's the point of Top staying he doesn't have the interest and he's just looking at massive reinvestment to get us back up.

They aren’t going down, but Moyes won’t want anything hanging over them for the build up of this final, they will want some momentum too. I can see West Ham steam rolling Leeds actually, there is a feel good factor about them now, the pressure is off in a way, and Leeds are a bit like a dog with two dicks at the moment humping dry air…. I think West Ham will win comfortably, and then put the kids out against us as it really won’t matter.

It was evident at the end of last season that we picked up cheap points against teams with nothing to play for, at the back end of the season, the only team that needed the points (Everton) got all three. Our final position was totally false, and we started the new season on the same level.

I’ve been away over the last few days and I was watching the Newcastle game with some Geordies. We got talking football and they asked who I support….. I just said “who’s had the most embarrassing decline in premier league history” their guesses were; Portamouth Sunderland Blackburn Bolton And then Leicester….. What company we are now keeping! 1
Aus Fox Posted 20 May 2023 Posted 20 May 2023 If West Ham were to lose their last 2 - it would only take Leeds beating Spurs at home and Everton beating Wolves and Bournemouth for them to go down. They will want to secure their final point at least before they relax and rest players. PL survival is way more important to them than the Conference cup.

Leeds would also have to make up a large GD deficit: West Ham currently -14 and Leeds -25 So the results would need to be something like: - West Ham 0 Leeds 3 - Leeds 2 Spurs 0 - Leicester 3 West Ham 0 West Ham have already finished above Southampton and us.

Gamble92 Posted 20 May 2023 Posted 20 May 2023 If results go our way today I just know I'll still be holding out hope like I always do. The way we've been in the past 10 years, can you blame me? Oh you can? Okay.
tickler28 Posted 20 May 2023 Posted 20 May 2023 For me one of the biggest reasons we are probably not going to survive this season is because so many of our players are just doing what they think is enough. You look at players like Guimaraes, Burn, Tripper, Joelinton, Wilson and Almiron for Newcastle, Felipe and Danilo for Forest, Mina, Doucoure and Iwobi for Everton going the extra miles....pushing themselves physically to the limits..... ....can anyone name me one player (other than Vardy) who is leaving everything on the pitch?
