Even if we stay up, and that's a big if, what's going to change next season?
We are arguably worse than last year. Have no money to spend thanks to incompetent board.
We are in a very hard place, it's been coming for years and those at the top are squarely to blame.
Act like a small time club that's what you become.
Thanks chairman Bill and Moshiri.
 
I saw us as gone after the Newcastle game. The nature of that Forest defeat and the the additional injuries they picked up and how negative the situation is at Leeds opens the door again but only if we win. If we are playing catch up after Leicester with those two extremely difficult fixtures our goose is cooked

The team around us are just as pish.

One or two unexpected (any win now would be unexpected) wins and we’ll stay up.

Even Leicester isn’t the end - a point would be great.

If you think we’re dead and buried sell yer ticket for the remainder. I’ll be there top balcony against city - even if it is the relegation confirmation. Can’t stand constant negativity, clubs run by gobshites but we back the team til the very end

I know the away fans tomorro won’t go in with a defeated attitude and fair fcks to all going

If we don’t win today……I’d expect us not to get anything from City or Brighton (expected losses as Moshiri would put it) - yes you are right we can pick up unexpected points as any other team can.

If we draw today we are worse off in points per game against two of three teams we are battling in comparison to this time next week, so it really boils down then to the games vs Wolves and Bournemouth and thats only if, our rivals do not pick up further points - this is too close for comfort.

The teams down there are crap and yes I can be guilty of having more confidence in them picking up points than us (only down to our ability to score) - if we don’t win today, then we are relying on a luck and it becomes a lottery, I fear our luck may run out after battling relegation last year as ell. If we can secure a win however, this changes the entire complexion, gives us more confidence and hammers one more nail into their coffin.

A draw is not the end of the world, but it’s not great and I would imagine a draw sees our odds shorten with the bookies - I don’t care how we do it, we just want a win!

1 away win v the worst team in the league.... We have won 6% of our away games this season, 29% of home games....

Leicester are 17th, so objectively one of the worst teams in the league. We also beat them at their place last season when they were playing much better than they are now.

They only have five points more than the other team who we beat away.

So it’s not impossible, is it ?

Sorry just one more thing….it’s not defeatist by reading the situation as you see it…..the people who are veering on the side of negative or caution - we all want us to go in with a battling mentality and a belief we can do it…..it’s just assessing it in the cold light of day, in face of the full facts and context (given the season we have had generally and our more recent poor run of form), and seeing the potential for it not to happen. Everyone will be made up if it happens, but expressing doubt on a forum should not affect the result of the match

At the end of the day, season whatever, we have one problem to overcome, it is Jamie Vardy.
He has done for Leicester, what no one of any club has ever done.
There is no other player in history that you can caterogly say this taem would have been nothing without a certain player.
He is injury prone, he is old, but he is Leicester through and through, and a true leader, unlike anyone we have.
If he performs tomorrow, we will be beat, we have no one in the same dimensiojn.
But he is 36, surely to fck we can contain him?, we absolutely need to stop him.
Any way we can

Harvey Barney’s and Youri Teilemans are a threat as well.

Not for you, it isn't.

I mean, you've already given up. That's fine. I'm not criticising. I think it's pretty rational from a mental health perspective to have next to no faith in this team to get themselves out of trouble. As you say, one away win all season suggests that win is not coming tonight, at Brighton, or at Wolves. That really only leaves Bournemouth as a punt.

But when you take the position above - which I respect - then you can't claim to have been "let down" if we lose at Leicester. Surely, you have already priced that in. If you hadn't, then it's just moaning for the sake of it.

As I said, I have very little expectation that we will stay up. I have a smidgin of hope because the margins at the bottom are still so small. But losing tonight will not be the final insult. The Kewnright regime as a whole is what has been insulting. We're only seeing its inevitable consequences now.

You could look at it that way, or conversely you could say, well we have only won away game all season, so we are due a win on the road statistically speaking and this would only match last seasons away record . The run of failing to win away will end at some point…..I think if we get one win either tonight, Brighton or Wolves, it will be a 33% win ratio for the remaining away games which is not too outlandish, so there is hope…..just difficult to see it in the current form, but we live in hope!

I dont get the logic of thinking ‘we will beat Bournemouth last game’ so lets hope for that. We need points now. I doubt we will win but we need to go all out for 3 pts tonight. But if we see the same defende we are lost.

Nothing has ever been more nailed on than a solanke hat trick to send us down.

O yeah if we stay up next season is exactly the same fighting relegation hard, nothing will change until Moshiri goes and we get an owner who actuallly runs the club right
 
I can't see Leicester throwing away this chance at home, any more than I could see Everton losing it if the positions were reversed. The atmosphere will be murderous and our delicate boys will shrink before it. However nothing is lost until it is lost so maybe we might snatch a nil nil draw.
 
I expect nothing less than defeat today, but in the off chance we pull off a result and take home 3 points, I’d consider changing my vote.

Games are running out and anything other than 3 points with Brighton and City incoming will just leave us cut adrift, I fear.
