The radio suggested that Leicester were putting in a nervy performance today. Who knows whether or not they can hang on? However, with each game that passes they are looking more nailed on for a Champions' League spot. Would be great for Leo to have a crack at that. He's a great bloke who gave his all while he was with us with none of that "head turned" nonsense. His reaction when bagging that late, late goal against Forest that sneaked us in the playoffs was a belter.

They are 13 points clear of 5th place (12 points if United win their game in hand) with 11 games to go. It would take quite some collapse for them to fail to finish in the Champions League places now. One in the eye for all the commentators who, only a short while ago, were saying even that wasn't possible. I remember at least two or three pundits who said they would end up finishing 6th or 7th and wouldn't even get a Europa spot.

I'm so pleased for Leo, quality player, top guy, he's always welcome back at The Amex.

I completely accept that. I am used to being in the minority. Very happy to be so. I am just sick of hearing how "everyone" wants Leicester to win. Because I don't.

Truth is I couldn't give a toss who wins the Premier League. Or the Champions League. Or the UEFA Cup.

If Brighton aren't involved, I couldn't care less.

I think I might amend by signature below to read "Quite happy to be in the minority about most things"
I have some sympathy with what you're saying. I find watching football without Brighton or England playing a little dull.... no passion for me.

But, seeing Leicester win the premier league would be quality. Mainly as a big f#ck off to all the plastics out there

Don't want to spoil your minority status but I agree with you. Unless Brighton are involved I'm not interested.

After watching him battle through thousands of Derby fans on the iPro pitch to come clap his fans for the last time - I wish him every success and would love him to get a winners medal

All you people have got it wrong, the experts say that Leicester can't possibly win the Premier League, and they will fall away in the second half of the season under the pressure of being lucky in the first half of the season.









Oh.

You wait. They'll get to about 38 matches and start to bottle it for the last eight.

I'm just so pleased that one of ours got a ticket to the premiership doesn't look out of place. I'm thrilled for him and hope he gets the medal he deserves.

Couldn't have put it better myself.

Just brilliant.
What a fairy tale story for him.
2nd tier Spanish league club to Champions League and Premiership title in 4/5 seasons.
Perfect career progression for a footballer and such a nice guy.

...scores an 89th minute winner for Leicester.

Good for him, remember one away day maybe qpr? my memory is shit, he sat within the fans, first time I ever bumped into him was in Foodilic north street after his first game didn't speak a word of english..... two weeks later saw him driving down queens road in a 2002 plate focus... irrelevant banging on regardless on and off the pitch he is a class act! and he done a job for the albion! Would love to see him get a EPL winners medal
