The Leicester City appreciation thread

[Midfield_General]

They smash us 9-0 on our own patch and then sign not one but two of the defenders who helped make that happen. A geriatric Ryan Bertrand whose legs had gone, and £15m for the BP shipping fleet's Jannik Vestergaard. 

Then they tonk us 5-0 and 4-1 in the same season and decide that one of the stalwarts of that side, strollin' Joe Aribo, now another two years older and three stone heavier, is just the man to inject the fight and passion they'll need for the scrap to stay away from the relegation zone, and offer to take his wages and Gregg's bill off our payroll for the rest of the season. 

Not only that, but if rumours are to be believed they have also put the man who masterminded those two defeats at the top of their wish list to be their new manager. Then, just for the lols, they put the 9-0 guy on there as well. 

So, Leicester City, we thank you 🙏. In our darkest days you never fail to bring joy and laughter, and your board increasingly make the clown show running our club look like the pinnacle of strategic excellence. 

Now, would you like to buy a goalkeeper and a left back? They're both Irish internationals, you'll love them.

This only works if they can procure the services of a manager who is going to get the best out of them. Fortuitously, Russell Martin is sniffing around his next gig at the moment.

Is there the remotest possibility of them receiving a points deduction this side of Christmas 2026??
