Leicester look nailed on certainties to bounce straight back up after last Seasons relegation ! We all know from bitter experience how difficult it can be to get out of that awful league ( ask Leeds and Forest too !! ) I never really liked Leicester but given the way they reacted to our Promotion and their relegation last Season I say.... Well Done  |

Descending to that level is a sobering experience for any of us. I've no great love for Leicester but in the past, when relatively big clubs have dropped down there, they have displayed the kind of arrogance that ensured they stayed there for some time. I honestly think it took us quite a while to accept where we were and what we had become. And as for Leeds (Ha Ha Ha!). Leicester accepted their fate gracefully last season and have done extremely well to bounce straight back. There has been no 'Bertie Big Bollocks' style talk from them or their fans and IMHO they fully deserve to get back to the CCC.
Like I said, no great love for them but well done to them all the same.

Fair play to them, a very poor league and tough to get out of!

I agree that they seemed to take their medicine better than most so called big clubs who have gone down their and didn't come out with the usual shit about coming back up with a 100 points. They just quietly went about winning lots of games. Forest and Leeds should take note.

I hadn't realised how well they were doing until I happened to look at the league table the other day, they're romping that league on 80+ points, I think having relegated them last season it finally quenched by desire for revenge from when they beat us in the play offs all those years ago, so now I can wish them well.
I still remember when we were relegated to that league, I lay on my bedroom floor staring at the ceiling for hours afterwards, they must be delighted at bouncing straight back, well done to them.

None of us really but they have bounced back vey well (no easy task) and it's fair comment to say how well they've done. Particularly in comparrison to the likes of Leeds and Forrest who both thought they were too big for their lowly surroundings.

Doesn't mean the rest of us love leicester either just because we recognise how well they have done.

I don't care about leicster either. In fact I don't care about them so much that when I was in school I deliberately skipped the class where we learned to spell them

Quite right jpm.
Fair play to them. I think not being the biggest fish in the pond has helped them (more teams i'm sure would like to turn Leeds over than Leicester) but as stated, they took their medicine and got on with it.
Credit where it's due

no thoughts re Leicester either way in general tbh.
superb response,shouldnt be dismissed/ignored by the national media (as it has been) as (as all Stokies know) how much of a bastard that division is.
alway thought Nigel Pearson was nothing special & wouldnt be anything other than ordanairy as a manager.
well he kept Saints up last year (no easy task) & despite NOT splashing the cash Leicester have destroyed all before them so show how wrong that assesment was.
well done to Pearson & Leicester.

nothing wrong with being magnanimous to what appear to be a decent enough team, of a similar type to ourselves. It would be great of Forest went down again though...
