    Charlton, Norwich and Portsmouth all move up one place. 

    Leicester now on 32 points and 20th in the league

    Probably have too much to go down but still not to be sniffed at

    From the Leicester forum:

    "And that's why it was absolutely critical that we beat Oxford and Charlton at home (ffs. depresses me to even type those pathetic clubs names. And we managed to lose! both FFS!!!!!)

     

    Pathetic".


    Battered them at home and beat them away. Enjoy League One chaps.

    Delusional. Hope they go down.

    This may galvanise them now as they know exactly what they need to do to escape relegation. Whether it should have been more points is moot, it's another club down there who have played a game more as well which helps us massively.

    Leicester need a decent result or two in February, as they lack the grit for a real dog fight.

    Think West Brom will manage to make them safe. Bar Fatawu I wasn't that impressed by them

    Hope B works well on his keypad for Bromley, Barnsley and Burton....

    Reasonably tricky run with Brum(a), Saints(h), Stoke(a), Boro(h), Norwich (h)

    They are the best club in Leicester...

    Or are they?

    Leicester Nirvana F. C. are good, if only their prolific front man K.Cobain had not tragically passed...

    Superb. That record will read:

    Depends on which Southampton you run into on any given day. Rest of those are all sides in good form so they could be dragged right into it.

    Three points above them with a game in hand.

    Last week if they had kept 11 men in the pitch I expect they would have beaten us. First 15 mins of the 2nd half they pinned us back even though we had an extra man. Their wide players will create chances & score goals for them. Their only downside is probably their actual strikers, but I think they have enough to stay up.

    But did they create anything actually dangerous? Way I saw it was they came out the blocks well but our defensive shape and structure was good enough to keep them at arms length and not need to worry too much. The penalty was the only real bit of quality from them

    Think even he blows very hot and cold. Can come up with a worldy now and then but drifts in and out of games too much. Last week I didn’t even realise he was on the pitch first half.

    Even that Bell should have dealt with better.

    They lost to Oxford at home the week before.

    We're sitting 2nd division, lower mid table now - just where we always were in the early 80's when i first started going regularly - we dominated that part of the table.

    The data suggests they are a really poor team. Only reason they were not in the shit already is Fatawu being one of the best players in the league. If he gets injured or decides he can’t be asked for the fight then they’ll get relegated
