Terrible moral dilemma

[ajthefox]

It's a tricky one, and I've often thought about it on a bigger scale, because to be honest, as much as I want to see Leicester win and be successful, can you imagine what it would be like if we ever won the premiership?

Thousands of fans supporting us for the glory, going to watch us play for no more reason than so then can boast about being a Leicester fan, season ticket queues that are years long, and match ticket prices that don't even bear thinking about if you book far enough in advance to actually get a seat in a stadium full to the brim. Hmmm, maybe not.

Imagine for a second though, how good would it be, to see Andy King lift the Premier League trophy at the Walkers with Hobbs, Beckham and co beside him? That would be something truly special.

Without a shadow of a doubt every leicester city match will be streamed live online if we are promoted to the prem! Good enough reason for you to see your beloved LCFC in the best league in the world? Not that there aren't many other reasons!

[Finnegan]

I love the denial from some people.

If you don't want to get promoted then presumably you're happy to be fairly mid-tableish in the Championship. Who the hell would rather be mid-tableish in the Championship, competing for a play-off place as opposed to mid-table in the Prem and in your own little league table to, maybe, get into Europe?

Better quality football, bigger crowds (and say what you want about "hangers on", Bilo, there is a direct correlation between bigger crowds and better atmosphere at the Walkers - obviously) better players at the club and - as you say - better bragging rights.

Yes the prices would go up but lets be fair we're not exactly a bargain to go and watch now, are we? And for those of us who can't afford to get to every game anyway there'd be a damn site more coverage to get hold of to actually see us.

I remember what it was like when we were a shit lower-midtable Champ side with no prospects of progression and it was fooking depressing, if we're going to languish in twelfth we might as well do it in one of the top leagues in the world, eh!?

I can understand the crowd for whom League One was their optimum footballing experience, fair enough, going to away days at pokey grounds with charm and great atmosphere - I get it. In fact I'm envious of those that could afford to get to the great aways. But in the Championship? Going to empty bowls like the Ricoh? Come off it. This isn't a great league for supporters.

Let's upgrade, please.

I'm not that bothered about midtable in the Prem either it's the FA Cup I'm bothered about winning. The only good thing about being in the Premiership is beating Man U or Chelsea or one of the other big sides (something Mick McCarthy isn't bothered about, not sure what he's even bothered being a manager in the Prem for TBH)

Erm to be fair to him this season his team has played pretty well against all of the title contenders, beating Citeh, going within minutes of getting a good point at Old Trafford and giving Arsenal and Chelsea a run for their money

I'm with Finners.

Well if he's turned over a new leaf I'll forgive him. But he should accept that what he did last season was anti-football.

[Corky]

Although we'll probably have home kick-off times moved (especially for the bigger games), I want the club to be successful and be as high as it can be.

It doesn't matter when there's alcohol involved. I even forget which division we're in at times.
