Leicester need to be very careful, can be very hard to make it out this league if you don’t do it at the first ask, they’ll get their bones picked in the summer if they miss out.

Would be interested to see the financials of a second season stuck down here, they have some big wages/contracts on their books and their top scorer is off in the summer (Vardy)

Keifer Moore is looking like a more than decent loan signing for Ipswich now, with 5 goals in 7 games, giving them a shot in the arm, just when things looked like they were going pear shaped.

We'll see how loyal Rat Boy Dewsbury Moor is in the summer won't we

I'm sure Vardy is still on 100k+ per week in the championship, which is crazy.

The way bottom half teams keep winning and with such a small gap covering so many sides up to 12th, it's not unfeasible that a team could get relegated on 52 or 53 points in the Championship

Which i dont think has actually happened before, has it?

I do not think I could think of anything funnier than Leicester completely pissing away their double figure lead with probably the biggest budget the division has ever seen and losing in the Play-offs

They were promoted, in their minds at Christmas and gave it the whole 'We'll never play you again anyway' after we beat them - I would genuinely piss myself

If our season is more or less over I honestly do not think I would mind Robins fielding the Under 16s when we play Leeds and Ipswich at our place - He won't do that as I think he has more integrity than that and I don't foresee us being totally out the hunt when we play those games

And Leicester should still have enough to get over the line, but they aren't as good as they think they are and it is certainly going to be interesting and if they do go up then they have massive issues to address to prepare themselves for Premier League football

If we're not going to really do anything now, I have to say Leicester bottling it and Blues getting relegated would make for a pretty fantastic end to the season.

I would be bricking it if I supported the Blouuuse - no manager, bang out of form and some pretty tough fixtures to come

I dread to think how arsey their fans would be at our game towards the end of the season if we beat them and left them bang in the shit

Although it would be pretty funny if after their new owner and Tom Brady have been giving it the old 'Birmingham, on the rise again' (Fuck knows where they got the again from) all season and they ended up getting relegated

Funny thing is I think worse Blues teams have stayed up, there's a few decent players in this one but they just can't put it together. The arrogant wankers have been flirting with League 1 for years so it would be brilliant to see them finally go, especially on the season they've gone full cringe with the Tom Brady/Peaky Blinders bollocks.

No way, I'd love to thrash Leeds and Ipswich, will make our run in interesting

Why, they played an excellent game yesterday and only lost narrowly,so they got a takeover with clueless owners, not deserving of that as far as I can tell.
