I really have no idea where to start with this but yesterday I was so fucking disgusted with what I saw that I walked out after the 3rd goal. Call me disloyal or whatever you will but I just thought to myself why the hell have I spent all this time, money and effort to see my 'team' put it such a inept and clueless performance. I had to walk out or I would've completely lost the plot, I don't see it so much as me turning my back on my 'team', more that the 'team' turned their back on the 885 fans who made the long, costly trip down there.
I've more or less given up, hell, why shouldn't I? The players already have, they aren't even fit to lace the boots of players from the Martin O'Neill and Brian Little eras that went before, that gave Leicester the reputation of a team that was never the greatest of quality but always fought to the very end, no matter how highly the odds were stacked against them.
It seems nobody wants to play for the shirt anymore and that hurts, I've said before that I can forgive a lack of quality but a lack of passion and enthusiasm is simply unforgivable, especially as the players go to collect their thousands at the end of the week and I'm struggling to get the money together to go to the next game.
I couldn't believe what I was seeing yesterday, and looking at the league table now just leaves me with a horrendous feeling deep down inside that we WILL go down. There's no question about it, at least then the majority of players will find their level in League One.
Rob Kelly is honestly one of the nicest guys I've ever met but he's not cut out for this job, and I hope Milan gets rid and gets rid quickly, we can't afford to keep this clown in the job any longer. Instead of a three-year plan to get to the Premiership, we'll soon be facing a three-year plan to get into the Championship.
I'm fucking fed up of watching a load of shite week in week out, and for once I'd like to see some of the players actually giving two flying fucks about what they're doing to this club.
R.I.P. Leicester City.

Ouch!! Feel sorry for ya though, as i have experienced it all with QPR and know how you feel. Still believe you will somehow claw yourselves out of it, i don't know how but i reckon you will. Just win ya home games really, do what QPR did and make tickets a tenner and fill the Crisp Bowl right up and get all the fans behind the players, even though it can be bloody hard to do that as sometimes the players couldn't give a Monkeys!! Good luck  |

Cheers Nik, luckily for us our destiny is still very much in our own hands, I think the game at Oakwell against Barnsley will be huge, IF we win that we might just be ok. On current form though we couldn't beat a fecking pub team  |

Didn't do THAT badly against Derby i thought... Second half against Derby was ok, first half was terrible. On another note, I just got odds of 40/1 on Leicester to go down with William Hill, stuck a fiver on it |

To be honest LL, there are far worse teams than Leicester in this division (although I can't really judge having not seen them play every week). Barnsley are doing alright at home (as yesterday's resuly suggests) but away they seem to be poor. Plus, their defence is sometimes atrocious. Southend have Plymouth and Southampton away, and they should really be tough games. Depending which Plymouth and Southampton sides turn up. Although they've shown that away sides can win at Deepdale. Leeds have Southampton and Derby, teams that are fighting for something and Ipswich (Don't expect miracles...) and Burnley at home. Hull have Colchester, Stoke and Cardiff, all play-off and promotion hopees. You have a game in hand, and are facing Birmingham when they've slipped in form. Really, don't give up hope yet. Leicester have a far better goal difference than the bottom four. If only you were playing Ipswich around about now... I'm sure we'd be delighted to help out  |

I'm sure we'd be delighted to help out I agree Han and think you have summed it up pretty well. The thing that's bugging me though is that all teams below us seem to be picking up points (aside from Luton) and we're 23rd in the form table, so I'm still extremely nervous!!!! |

Yeah, your results page really isn't looking too good since February I think the bottom five do have some tough games coming up though, and should really lose points. Most of the results went your way after the Derby match. You have every right to be extremely nervous, I'd definately be the same! |

I stand by my comment that I honestly don't believe Leicester are going down. I've had a little playaround with the BBC's Championship Table Predictor in which you enter predicted scorelines for the rest of the season and it calculates the table for you. This is what I've come out with:  As you can see, Leicester will be okay according to my predictions. That involved a 2-1 win against Barnsley and a 1-1 draw against Wolves which I believe are feasible (much to the disbelief of LL... Lol!). So don't worry about it. I've embedded a link to the BBC's Championship Table Predictor within this table so simply click it to try it out for yourself! |
