    Prefer the 2 tbh ...as it gives us yet another good result against the "big" clubs ... all very good for the development of a young team like ours ... in the grand scheme that's what we need ...

    It’s also given you a ****e result against a team that’s recently been whipped 7-0 so, same logic?

    If nothing else I admire your dedication to the cause Fosse.

    You can always tell if the result hasn't gone your way bcos we don't get blinded by Brendan's nashers on the touchline. In that sense I doubt he's happy.

    Ignoring the fact that United's first goal came from a complete flukey touch... Rashford missed a sitter .. it happens ... that doesn't make us lucky ... Mane and Vardy would probably have put all 3 of his chances away ...

    I doubt Leicester would have scored at all, if it wasn't for the distraction of Vardy coming on. What was laughable was the commentators biggin up Barnes after he scored, and saying how brilliant he's been all game....fooksake, hang on, it took them until the 83rd minute to score!

    The very same team got walloped by Liverpool, yet the commentators are talking about Leicester in the same light. Fooooook off!

    Nowt to do with dedication ... we've won away at Citeh, Arsenal and Spurs in the same season ... that has never happened in my lifetime ... if Leeds were anything like the force of yore, then adding them to those 3 would be in the realms of dreamville <cheers>

    You prefer 2 points over 3? Eh?

    It's been a bit of a mixed bag for you lot this season. Your home form has been erratic also. It's hard to predict your results tbh.

    I just don't see today's result as part of some master plan. I'll give you one simple example. I'm sure Brendan planned for Soyuncu to come on and get some game time today. It didn't happen and that shows it wasn't how he expected the game to go.

    If you want to sign up to the Leicester club website, you can see a virtual tour. If you can’t be arsed to do that, you can get a virtual tour of pools new one without having to sign up.
    Actually don’t bother signing up, pools one is better <whistle>

    You can pick apart most goals if you want to that much, fact is, if you are to say we are unlucky today to miss some of our chances including the pen, you have to acknowledge when we have conceded such clear cut chances in another game and come out slightly fortunate. Over the two games, probably a fair points total for us so no complaints from me
