Still wrong! We've played SEVEN, won 5 and drawn 2, so if you were counting Charlton as a win, you've completely missed off Derby, Hull, Burnley, Huddersfield or Palace.... :thumbsup:

Oh bloody hell. Who know's what I did then!?

Ill take that though. 5 wins out of 7, against a team in terrble form.

I cant understand the "can you honesly see us getting more than a draw" angle.

Wasn't impressed by Leicester at their place even though they were top of the Championship at that time. We didn't turn up for the first 30 mins and looked poor but when we finally got going they were easily rattled. If Barnes hadn't fluffed his penalty kick then we might have got something out of the game. Ahem.

They did seem to do their homework and right from the kick off closed down our back four (Greer in particular) which caused us problems getting out of our half. I can see Pearson trying to do the same again. But then again its us that are at home so should be pressing onto their back four, especially with their confidence being dented of late.

The best bit of the night at the King Power was a very young Albion lad spanking a brilliant pen kick past one of the Leicester keepers in the half time entertainment. I think we scored all of our kicks and Leicester gave themselves a couple of extra goes but still got whitewashed. Pity that Barnes missed the one kick that really counted.

More likely than on Tuesday - if they come at us and leave themselves open we could VIOLATE them.

Chris Wood scored nine in his first nine games, but has failed to score in the last seven. He is clearly not in the same class as Leo.

They have also only won one of their last eleven as well as having lost eleven away games with only five wins and five draws.

Depends on our luck, and if Poyet allows the lads to play attacking football.

We are certainly good enough to beat anyone in this division - when we get our fair share of luck.

Yes I hope he doesn't put out a negative team like the Charlton draw. It's rubbish having only one up front, two wingers, two attacking midfielders and the full backs crossing the halfway line all the time. Bloody Gus. If only he'd take the shackles off and let Kuszack, Greer and Upson go forward to.

I'm thinking a 0-0. Hoping for a 14-0 win though.

Luck mentioned twice.

At home, we should power on and take it to Leicester, who have been out of sorts for some time. Tactics, our great players, positive team attitude, passion and home advantage .... to give the victory, rather than relying on luck.

Cardiff and Watford have got their lofty positions with this; a confidence before games that they are bloody good and then executing the game plan.

A draw would give our recent results as DLLWDDD which would be a shocking return from a squad containing
Vicente
Buckley
Lopez
Orlandi
Bridge
Bruno
Upson
Kuzschak
Ulloa
Bridcutt
Hammond

No one could argue that we then deserve to get promoted.

Yes I very much can as leicester are on poor form and we are a good team, but in this league anything could happen (it will not be a disaster if we don't win at all). Also they have chris wood who ALWAYS scores against us :(

He didn't when he played for Birmingham or Bristol City last season.

A draw wouldn't be that bad a result. Although a lot depends on Bolton...
