It it is not given to us to see the future.
Many of us were there in the year of four managers where we got relegated to the Third Division.
We were there when we got promoted under Micky Adams only to find we could not afford to buy any Premier League quality players - "Yes I would like to buy Bobby Zamora but we just can't afford him" said the manager about a Brighton player.
We were there when we were bottom of the Second Division under Paulo Sousa.
We were there when the club was so dysfunctional that the Chief Executive banned the manager and chairman from writing in the club programme.
Imagine we had been told that Leicester would have the players Player of the Year and the football writers Player of the Year and the Manager of the Year.
Imagine that we had been told that Leicester had lost three games away - two of them to top clubs - but were unbeaten at home in four games.
Imagine we had been told that we had produced four brilliant performances Swansea Burnley Bruges and Porto..
Imagine we had been told that the club had bought a new striker - not DJ Campbell or Carl Cort - one good enough to keep Shinji out of the starting XI.
Imagine we had been told that arguably the greatest singer in the world (not the lamentable Mr Budd) would sing for us at the stadium.
Imagine we had been told that we would be top of our Champions League group having humiliated Bruges and beaten an excellent Porto side.
Imagine we had proved to be the best team in England by ten points.
I think their message to us would be - whatever the future results we have against clubs the size of Chelsea, Tottenham and Man City would have been
Stop moaning keep calm and enjoy the season.
