Its bloody stupid, Leicester are dunking us in the relegation zone like a digestive in a cup of tea. They lost to Millwall 1-0. They lost to Plymouth tonight 1-0. Barely beat Birmingham 2-1. Lost to QPR 2-1.
Its absolutely stupid and they're just the results in the last 3 weeks. They're dunking us right in it giving teams confidence and saying we play Plymouth next Saturday, they're gonna be right up for the staying up saga now, especially if Wednesday do what they probably will and beat us. Leicester still have Blackburn to play so no doubt they'll lose to them aswell to secure the last laugh of our campaign. Either they're bottling the league to get us back for the 07-08 season when we relegated them or they want to bottle the league because they're scared FFP is gonna slap them when they go up. Either way, they've gave us a right fight now and if Scheuy doesnt get it right tomorrow and Leicester dont get it right on last day vs BBR then we are in BIG trouble, as if we already arent. If my math is correct, if Leicester didnt fuck up vs them 4 teams, we'd be 16th right now.
Thoughts?

Leicester have done absolutely nothing to ruin our season. We've only got ourselves to blame.
That 5-0 spanking at home was awful in the moment but looks much much worse now. Schumacher surrendered from kick off.

Leicester have done absolutely nothing to ruin our season. so them whooping us 5-0 and then giving 3 points to all the teams at the bottom doesnt ruin us?

Well, it's like they couldn't have done us more of a disservice if they tried, the useless twats.

I see your point, and I'm being pedantic, but no I don't think Leicester have ruined our season. All you have to do is watch the Swansea game to know it wasn't Leicester who ruined our season. Edit: essentially, this is what happens when you rely on other teams' results to get us out of the shit. Risky business.

Schumacher surrendered from kick off. Losing to Leicester isn’t what’s put us in this position. It’s the 4 defeats in a row to Blackburn, QPR, Plymouth and Sheffield Wednesday under Neil. As well as losing to Birmingham at home and Blackburn away in the last couple of months.

the only reason we’re is this is simply due to the fact we’re a very bad football team and very poorly run club

No-one to blame but ourselves. We've made this shitshow, all of our own doing.

Couldn't agree more. 46 points from 42 games tells you all you need to know. Still think that we will stay up.

There's only one person who's ruined our season (and the club as a whole) and his name is John Coates.

Both of our managers this season have treated the Leicester games like bonus games. Pair of clowns.

1 attempt in the 87 min.against a wank swansea side is why we're in the shit. Cant score..cant defend...we really are wank. Leicester reaping revenge for us relegating them?? Cant beat a good conspiracy theory can you??🤣

If you want something doing properly, do it yourself? It's about time we fucking did. It's still in our hands with 4 games to play. If we go down, it's no one's fault but ours.

Tonight's result is annoying but it doesn't really change anything. 4 points from the last 4 games will keep us up.

Could it make our match against Plymouth easier now they are less desperate for points? Could be a good thing.

Remember that year we cost Liverpool four points by drawing home and away, but gave Man Utd six points, meaning that Man Utd won the league by four points with an inferior goal difference? This is like the weird inverse of that. Leicester are giving out points to everybody except us.
Of course, we didn't really cost Liverpool the title and Leicester haven't relegated us, but it is galling.

Or of course we could just congratulate the Plymouth players for giving their absolute all to get a result, when it really mattered, even if they were playing the team at the top of the league. There was a real message there for our own shower of bottlers to take on board. Never say die.

Norwich for losing a 2 goal lead against Wednesday and Leicester for everything they’ve ballsed up can do one for me and hopefully see them both next season

Rotherham aside, the amount of points we have gifted clubs around us is mental. We’ve turned so many games into what will be seen as six pointers come judgement day. Not only this, but the timing of the defeats often coincided with those teams being in poor form and then having done us, going on a run. We have been a catalyst for other clubs survival….thank you Stoke you clowns.

Nope, but it’s still in our hands, get proper twitchy when it ain’t, and they may be the case come 16:45 satdee Even if we lose at Sheffield Wednesday and Huddersfield somehow beat Bristol city we will still be 20th on goal difference unless we lose heavily or udders win handsomely. The game when it will be out of our hand if we lose could then be at home next weekend vs Argyle when Sheffield are away to Blackburn and udders are home to Swansea. To avoid that squeaky bum scenario we need at least a point today but a win will give us breathing space.
