Donut Posted 7 February 2015 Posted 7 February 2015 The notion that Pearson alone will inspire an instant return to the Premiership is baffling.
ronnup Posted 7 February 2015 Posted 7 February 2015 Some of us arent as premiership obsessed as yourself, possibly due to being older. Success is a wonderful thing, but when it clouds your enjoyment of the saturday and the enjoyment of supporting a team it becomes a negative. Support them my friend. Whatever league they're in
Arriba Los Zorros Posted 7 February 2015 Posted 7 February 2015 I actually think the people who want us to stick with Pearson want us to go down. That's not an exaggeration, I've already read several posts tonight, let alone in recent weeks, which suggest getting relegated isn't a big deal. it isnt
Kitchandro Posted 7 February 2015 Posted 7 February 2015 it isnt Er yeh it is. Am I going to have to explain the concept of sport to you as well?
SomalianFox15 Posted 7 February 2015 Posted 7 February 2015 I don't care whether we go down, I'd just like to see some good football between now and the end of the season
Donut Posted 7 February 2015 Posted 7 February 2015 it isnt If relegation isnt a big deal, why bother going up? The consequences of relegation on many levels are a disaster
Buzzell Posted 7 February 2015 Posted 7 February 2015 it isnt So you would rather us go down and back into the Championship where we might possibly not come back up or continue playing football in the best league in the world where our team can possibly grow into a better side?
Kitchandro Posted 7 February 2015 Posted 7 February 2015 If relegation isnt a big deal, why bother going up? The consequences of relegation on many levels are a disaster I don't know why people bothered celebrating any of the goals over the last two seasons.
Zapp Posted 7 February 2015 Posted 7 February 2015 People are saying we'll get relegated so that if we go down they can say they were right, and that offers them some consolation to feel like they have superior foresight in the football future. And if we stay up they are happy anyway and quickly forget what a dreary boring depressing person they had become. Its just different peoples way of dealing with the disappointment they are feeling.

Eh? People are saying we'll get relegated because we will. You want to bet money on it? £200? Look, I'd prefer to have hope but people aren't getting pleasure out of saying we'll go down, they're saying it because it's realistic and it's silly to think otherwise.
Spanner73 Posted 7 February 2015 Posted 7 February 2015 No of course we don't but we have to be realistic and it's looking very bad for us it's hard to stick with a manager who makes such poor decisions as he has of late but my personnel opinion is that he's made many mistakes since the summer let alone the last few weeks like everyone has said , for me id take a chance now and hope it's the right one I don't see us improving at all so I dont see it really as a gamble but a new gaffer coming in May change everything who knows

Look, I'd prefer to have hope but people aren't getting pleasure out of saying we'll go down, they're saying it because it's realistic and it's silly to think otherwise. i watch leicester and football in general to enjoy the highs, dream of the unexpected, recover from the lows i believe in life that theres acceptable things to be unrealistic about, and football is one of them. Not that our situation is anywhere near as dire as you seem to think. i get the feeling you look for the negatives in life rather than the positives. also that you find pleasure in making people feel a bad about a situation as you do. personally i dont understand why you keep parting with your hard earned cash to watch us get relegated "because we will". Let the dreamers dream. And you can brag about how you called the realistic outcome in February if the "R" is placed next to our name. FYI No money needed, staying up would be worth more to me than a couple of hundred quid.
Guest Col city fan Posted 8 February 2015 Posted 8 February 2015 I'm amazed that so many are still going down to watch the games this season. If this represents value for money then I'm from Mars. If we aren't careful, this could end up one of the club's worst seasons in my living memory. To go from last season's heroics, to this is horrible really. Shows again how so many underestimated the Prem.
Callabinho Posted 8 February 2015 Posted 8 February 2015 No hardened Leicester fan wants us to go down, but we have to accept the facts, we are going down. What makes this season worse than the previous relegations from the PL that I have had the displeasure of sitting through, is that most of it is our own fault. I'm sick of watching smaller sides than us be successful when we have to wait. MON brought wonders to this football club, now we're back to being that nearly club again, it's depressing.
queensguardfox Posted 8 February 2015 Posted 8 February 2015 I remember at the start of the season when most people said they would take 17th position. we are 3 points off that, chill out people.

I make very little impact on the results, so what's the point into getting so emotionally involved with 'we must stay up'. We go down I'll still be there in mid August, probably celebrating like a nutcase when we score.
weller54 Posted 8 February 2015 Posted 8 February 2015 Perhaps the positives are that when we get promoted again (hopefully it won't take another 10 years!),We would have learnt so much from this painful season.. The summer transfer window was THE fatal mistake, not investing enough in players with premiership experience!.. That was the key and unfortunately Pearson put too much faith in the championship winning squad to perform in the Prem.. Which most of them haven't been able to do... The likes of Drinkwater, Morgan, Konchesk, Delaet, King, Vardy, Nugent have all been woefully off the quality/pace you need to survive in this league.. Let's just hope the owners have deep pockets i f/when we are ever given premier league football opportunity again!
CosbehFox Posted 8 February 2015 Posted 8 February 2015 The owners will have certainly learnt their lesson agreed.
weller54 Posted 8 February 2015 Posted 8 February 2015 Burnley two up against wba.. That's grim for us!!...
Clever Fox Posted 8 February 2015 Posted 8 February 2015 No one underestimated the premiership more than Pearson. He's made a total disaster of our season. He's no fool, but he should have been smart enough to realise that we needed to get a few with prem experience in to nuture the ypung players we have. Now they're playing like there shell shocked and it's difficult to get the best from them. not alone has he wasted the summer but he's also wasted the Jan window as well bringing in an unknown quantity as this level. Yes he might go on to be a top player but that's not the point. What we needed was proven know how like Defoe. Has already moved Sunderland out of danger with two wins and six points. I also believe despite all his bravado the pressure has got to Pearson with his recent antics. Does he have the players playing for him yes he does. The problem is collectively their not good enough, and that's his fault.

Harry - LCFC Posted 8 February 2015 Posted 8 February 2015 'Oh it's alright, relegation isn't a disaster, we've got loadsa money and we'll obviously walk the league next season so I don't know why people are even disappointed that we've got 17 points from 24 games.' How can it be that a team in Season One goes up, then in Season Two is relegated, and ends up in a worse position at the start of Season Three than they were at the start of Season One? I mean really, how can a year in a higher division make you worse off? How can that be? Bad management, that's the only thinkable reason. Relegation will not be a disaster if we manage ourselves properly.
Collibosher70 Posted 8 February 2015 Posted 8 February 2015 Absolutely spot on post!!! i'll second that
hackneyfox Posted 8 February 2015 Posted 8 February 2015 Some supposed fans would much rather us not gone up in the first place and Pearson sacked They know who they are I'm no fan of Pearson, never have been but I wanted us promoted and I don't want us relegated. I can't imagine that anyone's dislike of NFP exceeds their love of the club.

Relegation will not be a disaster if we manage ourselves properly. Getting relegated is a disaster, there is no other way to look at it, that applies whichever division you drop out of but getting relegated from the PL can hit a club massively. However well the club may try to manage it if your best players leave then you're screwed.
