Hopefully they don't come good today , but I think they will very soon.

It's a tricky game and we could be in for a hard game .

I agree it could be a hard game, because Keith Hill managed 4 points against us last season

But the games tomorrow mate

re: Leicester Tickets

Not something i agree on, but numerous clubs do it. I'll be there on saturday, we've only sold 190 tickets **** poor.

190!? Not sure I believe that, but still.

One of the main reasons I want to get out of this league tbh...

Factory used to be on Oxford Street, thinks it's on the Scudamore Road Industrial estate now...

I think that's where The Polar Bear pub got its name.

190! Jesus it's only 75 minutes away :unsure:

Obviously we should win but it's a unpredictable division

If we are serious about promotion, this is a game we have to win....... :thumbup:

Barnsley are 4th bottom, the table does not lie. Last season we would have been lucky to get a point against teams in the lower reaches, this season we are brushing them aside.

Should be a comfortable win, Knockeart to score and celebrate by getting arrested exactly 12 hours after he scores his goal....... :P

Pearson: At Our Best When We're Positive

City manager Nigel Pearson will urge his side to maintain their aggressive approach against Barnsley, as the Foxes look to increase the pressure on npower Championship’s top two.

The third-placed Foxes host the Tykes at King Power Stadium on Saturday, looking for a fourth win in five games as they continue their pursuit of Cardiff City and Crystal Palace in the automatic promotion spots.

With a formidable home record that has seen them drop just five points out of the 30 on offer so far this season, Pearson’s men will be big favourites against Keith Hill’s struggling Yorkshire outfit.

But the Foxes boss insists his players must continue in their current vein of form to avoid an upset.

“I think it’s a very dangerous fixture for us,” Pearson said ahead of the game.

“They beat us here last season, there is a perception that this will be an easy game for us and it won’t be.

“I know that Keith will be planning our downfall, they work exceptionally hard on their preparation and I know it won’t be the game everyone wants it to be.

“But we’ve got to approach it in the same way we approach every other game and that is for us to be positive and make sure we do everything we can to win the game, as we always do.

“It is one of those fixtures that we’ve got to be aware of.”

Foxes fans will be hoping for a repeat of last Saturday’s 4-1 win over Derby, which saw City produce some of their best football in recent memory.

Playing with pace, invention and penetration, the Foxes are bang in form and Pearson is hoping to see in continue.

“Against Derby it was attractive, very effective and we didn’t allow the opposition to get a foothold,” he said.

“It’s about winning games and we’re at our best playing aggressive football, on the front foot at a good tempo.

“I think we have players capable of managing the ball and that gives you a better opportunity of winning games.”

I don't blame them for only selling 190. It's £28 for them whilst our lot are paying £15 a pop.

Poor practice really, should be £15 all round.

Pearson is right, in four of the last five home games we've scored in the first ten minutes.

The BBC are at it again...

One place and four points outside the play-offs, the Foxes have only been beaten by Crystal Palace at the King Power Stadium and boast a 100% home record against bottom-half clubs.

But Palace are the only squad to beat us at the KP. And weren't Burnley in the top half when they held us to a draw?

Edit: Oops, just realised the mistake. :facepalm:

I think we have learnt out lesson from previous seasons against the lower teams and not to take them to likely so I am pretty confident we can get a win today...

if Nugent starts then I can see us banging in another 4 at least.

Were playing with 10 men, were playing with ten men, ten me.

Obviously Knockaert was going to start, but Pearson shot him for his bad behaviour.
