I remember being so proud of our fans when we sang 'we are staying up' up until we won the title in 2015.

 

And the reaction to struggling the previous season - surely that helped us to stay up?

 

We now have fans so entitled that they have no stomach for a fight; so arrogant that they slate the travelling fans for clapping the team off; and so mentally weak that they throw their teddies over losing a football game.

 

We are probably going down...

 

Grow up and live with it!

Bore off, nothing to do with arrogance, it's entirely to do with watching a team that couldn't give less of a shit whether they stay up or not, what on earth do they deserve applauding for? Why should millionaires being paid thousands a week to half arse it and get embarrassed week in week out get any kind of gratitude? 

This small club attitude that we should be happy with what we have got is one of the main reasons everything has gone so downhill, just because we were in league 1 15 years ago, doesn't mean we should be happy that we are in the process of pissing away all of the progress made since then, it's not entitled to want to watch players actually put some effort in and provide some basic competence on the pitch

The club is a ****ing embarrassment right now on and off the pitch and any fan that is standing by and applauding it is part of the issue

Well thought our result was bad enough Brighton capitulated to Everton Looked like the trees are running away with it but Southampton digging in hope they get the draw!!

 

Today Leicesters players let the fan base down more they can imagine when you see the likes of florist Everton even Southampton playing their hearts out to stay in the Premier League, it’s so frustrating as a foxes fan to see our team faff and fail and play like a bunch of idiotic over paid over hyped Morons.

 

Its about time these Leicester players stood up and be counted play their hearts out for the team the fans and even what they’re paid to do, they need to give their all for the club the fans dig in and play their hearts out and secure our premier league survival. 
But what’s the betting these little Schitts beat Liverpool Monday night and give us a winning last 3 games ??

Who knows stranger things have happened!!😉

We basically started like we didnt give a ****, players were statues, Fulham got the easiest 2 goals of their season.

 

Then we decided we were in a football match and actually played a bit but not great, second half we got a bit better, missed the penalty of course, but when our fans starting dissing the team, the players clearly backed off again, that obviously affected them.  Then it didnt help we were chanting about us losing the ball, when you consider all the crap Rodgers put them through about keeping the ball (our away fans are rodgers ball fans?).

 

Wont lie, I tuned out at 5-1, was surprised to find out later we got another couple of goals.

 

Sadly the defending has actually got worse, and we start games badly, really badly, so despite our ability to score goals again, it isnt enough.

What a waste of money having them LCFC stewards there today. 
 

Shared turnstiles. Searches where you just walked straight past the stewards. No steward within the seated area it felt like. 
 

Like a world beyond our Pyongyang 

I actually asked one of the "Leicester" stewards outside if this was the right gate for the away end. He said you'd have to ask the other gentleman over there. Useless lol

The away end was magnificent today. When you consider the level of performance served up and the importance of the game , no-one  could have complained if we’d all gone home at half time. (A few did). But the noise continued - not all of it complimentary towards the team - but mostly gallows humour about playing in the Championship…but we sung and we sung and we sung …and when anything at all promising happened we clapped…

We’re going down, whether this season or next, it’s going to happen given the state of the squad - probably better for it to happen this season before next.

 

Then a huge clear out - playing staff, coaches, Rudkin, and start a new 3-5 year plan.

 

If the owners are not prepared to do what it

requires, they should just sell, because we’ve gone back 10 years under Rodgers.

People talking about getting relegated this season or next. 

 

Well struggle to stay up in the Championship next season under this ownership.

I know every player is crap at the moment, but I do wonder why we are soooo easy to beat, and I keep coming back to the midfield. 

Feels like they don't work anywhere near hard enough, and are either really unfit or just don't care enough to battle, track back or shield the back 4. 

I think Tielemans has always been guilty of that and often looks like he is running in treacle. Adding Soumare in the middle, a player I often see lose the ball and then casually jog back, was always going to spell disaster. N'didi is someone else entirely, I refuse to believe that is the same player. Barnes would prefer to never have to track back and Maddison the same! 

 

How did we ever think we would win games with players like these, who have no interest in defending as a team?! 

It is so important to sign 3-4 midfielders in the summer, that will work their socks off for the team and battle in defence and shield that back 4. 

This is not to excuse our defenders by any means, but it doesn't seem to matter who we play back there, we always get overrun and cut open with ease. Therefore, it has to be the constants, like Tielemans, Maddison, Barnes etc, who just don't do enough for the team in defence.

I did predict we would score 3 times, an get 2 penalties, thought we'd miss both, so that was a plus. Madly predicted we'd get a clean sheet, fair enough we didn't but if you are scoring 3 and missing a penalty an not even getting a point, it's embarrassing. Fair play to Fulham, they were clinical.

Youri Tielemens - we play him because we hope he'll put a through ball in or strike a wonder goal, but he won't run, he isn't a relegation battling player, but who is the alternative? I don't think we have one, there lies the problem

Our midfield made Tom Cairney look like prime Kaka today, and that is saying something.

What a sad way to end the fairytale… at least we have the memories. Rotherham away on a cold January night then… 🥶

Could be a while before we’re back in the prem?

The most disgusting Leicester team I've ever seen. I genuinely think less of them than the 2008 side.

 

Scumbags. Bastards. **** off out of here and never ever come back you ****ing oxygen thieves.

I feel the same. It feels like the defining moment of a transition that we've all seen coming for some time. Also, aside from Vards, maybe one or two others (maybe), I can't think of anyone I really like in this squad, and I've thought that for some time. Sick of YT. I remember us going down with Harry Bassett and Micky Adams. Aside from the shite we had in the squad, we still had fighters. We have none of that here.

we have a technically gifted midfield, but no work horses or any real desire to battle. Soumare should have been that type of player, but although he has the stature, he really doesn't want to work or win those battles. All 4 of our starting midfielders today, don't really track back, don't work hard enough and certainly don't battle for control of the game. A CM who can offer us that work ethic and aggression, will be our most important signing in the summer.
