I'm not a fan of the Foxes, but you have to give credit to them for blowing the Championship away.

8 points clear of 2nd with 76 points and 2 frontmen in Vardy and Nugent who score for fun.

If we are relegated, I hope our strikers dominate the Championship.

Barry really surprised me. He was dogs hit last season and a massive waste of money but this year he's been on fire

Fair play to them and their board for having the guts to stick with Pearson after last seasons disappointment (they spent more than us and just sneaked into the play-offs).

Hope we are as patient with Ole :ole:

That's meant to be Vardy, not Barry. Bloody autocorrect :lol:

and the thing is, they have been spending for a while, not just this season. I like Pearson, glad he is getting some joy - I remember he was Hull's boss when we did them 2-0 at home, we were all over them (even Gavin Rae scored) and they were on their uppers then before this latest owner got there.

another thing I saw on SSN this weekend was top attendance in the Championship was Leicester at home - admittedly to Charlton, but it was less than 25,000. For a bigger stadium than CCS, and for the position they are in/goals they score, I was surprised by that.

Just shows that in reality our crowds were fabulous last year, as they have been almost since we stepped in the place nearly 5 years ago... :ayatollah:

Indeed, they usually fade badly after Chrimbo, but this year they appear to have a 'system' that works and are doing well. My only worry (if I was a Foxes fan) would be that they will be in EXACTLY the same position as us at the season end and will need a total revamp of their team ;)
