I do find it fanciful that fans seem to have convinced themselves that if Leicester can do it so can we..
Let's just be real the Leicester story is special because it was a borderline miracle! Once you get up there it's a tad easier to stay up there I suppose, but hey've then managed to do that also which is another incredibly challenging thing to do.
I don't think we'll see another Leicester story anytime soon. If it was easy every club would be doing it. Incredible story.
We'll all die without seeing us win anything

So your saying sack a dinosaur and employ a modern manager.
So can we sack Bruceasaurus and employ Eddie Howazing. And make progress?
Howe? No I'd stay well clear of him.
Rodgers was already proven at Swansea,, Liverpool and Celtic.
That's what I'd look for manager that's demonstrated at more than one club that his sides conform to a certain style of play.
If we sack Bruce you'll be lucky if you get wilder or Neil lennon
I find it fanciful that you don’t think we can.
Any team including ours can. Can does not equal will. That part depends upon Owner, Manager and team.
But you already know that, don’t you.

I could win the lottery, but just because my neighbour has does it mean it's likely I will too?
How many Leicester stories have there been in the last 40years?
We shouldnt be even contemplating winning anything...
You said we can’t but we can. Doesn’t matter how many teams have done it. You should have said unlikely or something of that ilk and I wouldn’t have taken issue.
No I didn't I said we'll all die before we win anything... Implying that we can.
Of course it matters btw.. Liklehood is key
Hmmm, seems I’m right.
Yeah well it's probably true.. I did follow that by saying we'll all be dead before we win anything though,, so I had it covered with some positivity
We’ll all be dead before we win anything is positive??? I’d hate to catch you in a negative mood.

Well it proves I didnt rule it out.
That's positive enough isn't it?
It's been 60 years so far so I think a few of us will certainly be Skeletal remains before we win anything
We have had loads of chances but unfortunately it just never went right . We got bumped in semi vs chelsea too if you remember? Lost two vs cup finals in successive years, threw away a 3-0 lead on Lisbon in the eufa Cup semi.. Threw away a 12 point lead, lost a final to Liverpool in 74.. Lost a final to city......
We even lost the charity shield final ffs.. 4-0.
Sadly I remember
I remember being at Cardiff too when we got pumped 4-1 in the semis, Nicky Butt was Man Utds best player even though he was playing for us. Never trust a ginger
Tbh I think the two finals vs nan United and arsenal were a a forgone conclusion.. We ha no chance they were two sides on fire
We needed perhaps a bit of fortune those years but unfortunately both times the best side was still there to meet us.. We didn't get Hull for example
The year chelsea beat us via through a **** decision we'd have won the final.
I think our last chance was the uefa cup. 3-0 on agg with an away goal and only 45 mind to play.... Think they scored 5 in the second half.
Against Marseille too when Woodgate absolutely bossed Drogba in the 1st leg. But think he was injured for the 2nd leg and we lost
We've never had a proper squad under him. Remember that daft phase where we had "purple players" where we could only have 11 players capable of kicking a ball
Aye that was a bad one.... We got taken apart over there...
Another sad fact was that Drogba was on his way to nufc , but then chelsea was bought by roman and he went there.
We got absolutely shafted by the Chelsea takeover, but it's kind of a forgotten and overlooked thing... We'd just earned or top 4 stop for a couple of seasons then the rug was pulled out from under our feet
It's that fact that makes our own takeover which would've given us a chance to fight back has been denied
