    Pre Match Leicester v Burnley

    Last season this would have been a tough, top-of-the -table clash, so must not take Burnley forgranted I would hate Leicester to be the ones who Burnley finally got a premiership win against..... You know that's what they are thinking right now...."can't beat Arsenal but against...

    Leicester City on (really old) album cover

    Family - "In my own time" and "Burlesque" are British rock classics from early 70's. Unfortunately, none of their other songs came close to these two brilliant tracks Hawkwind "Silver machine", Atomic Rooster "Devil's Answer", Deep Purple "Black Night", T.Rex "Jeepster", Free "Wishing Well"...

    Best result for us today, Derby v QPR

    On the face of it, a dour 0-0 with bookings & injuries a plenty! :077: Looking at the table more carefully though, would suggest a Derby low scoring win will keep a nice points buffer between us and the chasing pack :038:

    Leicester support yesterday Leeds fans are obviously miffed to lose out on a point so late in the game yesterday, but are posting about our crap support. "Final word goes to the Leicester fans, worst support this season at Elland Road." I wasn't at the game yesterday & I know leeds is an...

    England - one down, one to go!

    Job well done today & respect to Roy Hodgson for picking such an attacking team. A few old timers on here will remember the night Poland blanked us 0-0 at Wembley to shatter our world cup dreams - 25 shots on target, not one went in. One of the few occasions football has made me cry (I was...

    Confirmed Transfer Dean Hammond

    Could we please sign a player I've heard of before, FFS If we are serious about going up, adding an ageing journey-man player nobody has ever heard of outside of Brighton & Southampton, is not the way forward

    Chris Powell - future Leicester manager

    I shall definately be giving Chris Powell the clap on Saturday He deserves respect for his classy performances in an LCFC shirt, and success at modest-sized, family club Charlton over the past couple of years. I hope the Charlton board keep faith with him after their dissappointing start...

    Match Thread Middlesbrough (a), 3rd August 2013

    We've struggeled with goals pre-season, but have an experience defence to blunt Boro's forwards. I'm predicting a 0-0 draw, which wouldn't be a bad start to the season. If we nick a goal and squeak a 1-0 thro Chris Wood, then the "City for auro-promotion" band-wagon can get an early start!

    FA cup quarter final - Everton v Leicester

    For all the numpties on here who shugged off our FA Cup home loss to Huddersfield as 'no big deal', a couple of questions... A real fan wants to see his team win every game, regardless of any extenuating circumstances. This weekend, when all fans of the clubs left in the Cup were waking up...

    Yeah Gregs but we have to follow this up with as result at Huddersfield mid-week Leicester have never been known for their consistency - but if we're going to turn the current glowing embers into a raging fire of a promotion chasing season, we've got to string an unbeaten run together.

    It's like having 60 points

    Jeff's BBC predictor sounds about right - finish 7th in what was a totally frustrating season of occasional highs but deep lows as we lost games that we should have won at a canter. Unless we squeak a 2-1 win at Ipswich tomorrow (it's possible), even the biggest optimists on this board, me...

    Great win today and everyone around us lost Six points behind Cardiff in the 6th play off spot, but we have a vastly superior goal difference to them and everyone between us & them, which is like having an extra point What we need now is some of the old "Foxes never Quit" spirit, everyone...

    COME EFFIN ON! We should be comfortably beating teams like Forest & Peterboro with the squad we've got. That's five lost points in a week and how many more over the past couple of months??? It was all there for the taking - we've been given so many 'second chances' by our rivals dropping...

    Speculation Billy Davies née Sharp

    Re: Speculation Billy Davies We are NOT in a position to snub our noses at the potential new signing of a 3 million pound striker. If we were in the top two, maybe, but we are far from that level of comfort. At least the club haven't given up on trying to get us in the lay-offs this year...

    FA Cup Draw

    Other than Wembley cup finals & Villa Park semis, I think the largest away following I've been in was Leicester at Fulham mid-80's when we need to win to secure promotion to the top flight. We won 1-0 and had an amazing drive home I think it was a total crowd of 14-15,000 and Leicester...

    Maynard & Beckford are too similar in stature & style to fit into the same team / squad I say Young Nicky turned us down when the time was right for both parties (early in the season) and LCFC put a ton of cash on the table for a non-Prem striker. We shot our load laying out 3 mill for...
