Why are we a club of such extremes?

Honestly we are different to any other club in England. Get promoted from the championship, great escape from relegation, win the premier league, win the fa cup, win the community shield, bottle 2 top 4s in two seasons having been miles clear, finish 8th and then get relegated from there, have a 17 point lead at the top of the championship and bottle it. 
 

This club is ridiculous. Why do we do things in extremes so much?

Wouldn't have it any other way tbh.

 

Much rather the rollercoaster ride than 20 years in the wilderness like Cov etc.

Was talking to my mate mentioning the exact same thing, baffling really.

It's always been like that it's ingrained in the club culture.

To be honest mate, I would genuinely Ask who would swap our last 10-15 years with another team? Even teams like Bayern or man city, I think their fans would be jealous of the times we've had. I truly believe that. We've had the most insane period in our history. Most clubs would envy what has happened to us and most clubs can only match those select few. I mean, sure historically teams can match us, but let's face it, none of their fans can actually remember the glory days. So revel in it, soak it in and enjoy it. Because the Leicester rollercoaster is a wild one, and hopefully, it never stops!

I wouldn’t have it any other way but it’s just emotionally draining 😅

I’ve often wondered this, but the highs and lows are what football is about. We have plenty of both. 
 

When we won the PL I thought it might mean an end to yo-yoing and we’d become a steady PL side. What a platform that was, and what an epic failure it’s been.

Another extreme would be to not lose again this season and go up as champions, wishful thinking, but with this club it could easily happen.

Or we could do a Spurs and finish 4th in a 2/3/4-horse race :P
