The bottom line is that we cheated and still weren't good enough to stay in a really shit league 

and the board will not acknowledge that in any way. The decision makers at the club will not accept any culpability and have got themselves a ready made excuse.

Anyone who remotely thinks we were anywhere good enough to stop in the championship have been watching a different Leicester to me .... 

But we were.

How ... you think this win against a team which has nothing to play for counts as a good result.... because believe me if Blackburn had needed the points they would have got them

Fully appreciate why people think it was a meaningless result, but always good to get a result in the M1>M62>M65 derby.

We have been relegated by a discredited set of rules. Do the maths.

How? We cheated and were rightly punished. Absolutely fair. We went down because we are one of the worst teams this league has seen and absolutely stunk the place out. 
 

It’s justice on multiple levels we have gone down.

Take a look at the teams that came down with us .... one straight back up .... the other in the playoffs  ..... And now take a look at us

How Blackburn didn’t capitalize on our awful start to the second half is beyond me.

 

We are such a hideous team to watch/like aren’t we?

 

If we have more than 2/3 players still around from this season, then it’s too many!!

It was an arbitrary decision to deduct 6 points based on arguable opinion, not football related. The same rules that will be changed as they are not fit for purpose.

 

You can argue as much as you like about our on pitch performance, and would probably be justified, but ultimately we have lost our Championship status because of decisions taken by grey suits.

To be fair, I see it as we have been relegated on the pitch anyway as let’s be honest, had we been in with a chance of staying up today, even a point ahead of Blackburn with it being a straight shootout, winner stays up, what would have happened? Wouldn’t have been a 1-0 away win that’s for sure….

How can it bullshit? No one is arguing the players haven't underperformed. But it's factual that we would not have been relegated without the points deduction.

But would west brom have taken their foot of the gas if they were fighting to stay up?.  So many variables its really impossible to say what the bottom of the league would've looked like without point deductions.

Except it's not for sure. You most likely are correct as we have learnt not to trust these players. Nothing is a given though, is it, as Leicester City fans we should know more than most.

Clutching at straws .... the points deduction was totally self inflicted... it was left to others it would have been more points ..... we are relegated because of poor management and poor players

The black and white evidence is a look at the final table. Everything else is just whataboutory.
