Wolfie20 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Not a club I have a particular fondness for but credit where credit's due. After todays' results and providing West Ham don't beat City, they will have a 10 point lead (and much better goal difference) over the team in 5th place! Who'd have believed it?

Srg Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 It's fantastic stuff. Can't help but admire the work they've done there this season. I like Ranieri too, which helps. That said, they can insert those clapper sticks up their collective rectum sideways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philmycock Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Isn't it funny that quite a few Derby fans are rooting them to do it or even win the league, I for one hope they do. If it was us or Forest up their all their fans would be hoping we'd fail. They'd love to have a proper local rivalry! Poor souls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Ram Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I quite admire how their owners have gone about things. The blokes that took over Cardiff, Hull and Birmingham are/were dubious at best with their plans for their clubs but these guys appear quite respectable. And as Srg mentions, Ranieri is a likeable bloke, good luck to them. I would have been sickened if Hard Nigel was still in charge mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THey've got one, but Loughborough Town aren't in the same league any more. Incidentally, what bog-standard quiz question is 'Loughborough Town' the stock answer for?

Mr. P Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Interesting games coming up for Leicester, Liverpool at home, man city & Arsenal away. Wouldn't bet against them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuespachRam Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 With arsenal doing their usual Arsenal bottle job, City being totally erratic, Spurs being Spurs and United in a mess I think that 4th place is an absolute minimum for Leicester. Can they win it..? I think they can and really hope they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never forgiven his exploitation of Derby County when dealing with us over Huddlestone and Rasiak. So NO. If he dropped dead and another chairman came in... fine.

Don't care about their chairmen, I care about the young English players they're developing really well. A title under Alli, Kane and Dier's belts and they'd get playing time at the Euro's over ******* Rooney, Carrick and Vardy. Exact same as I felt about Liverpool in 13/14 when they had Sturridge, Sterling and Henderson playing out of their skins just before a tournament.

Nothing against the new owners but the fact it was all built on going into administration shortly after the crippling debts of building a new stadium, allowed them an easier route to where they are now, still sticks in the throat. Sorry it was all too easy 10 years back and I have to wonder would their new owners been interested if the consortium that did that, then Mandaric both picking them up for song, hadn't have laid the platform post administration. Good banter with local Foxes aside from that, they are living the moment and why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Ram Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Do you know, all that slipped my mind, very good point you raise. That said, I just think it's refreshing the same old teams aren't as nailed on as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
