Their top scorer is Jamie Vardy with 12 goals, followed by Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Stephy Mavididi with 10 each. A glance through their squad, and names like Vardy, Iheanacho, Dewsbury-Hall, Albrighton and Choudhury all show why they are top of the league, and look like they will be quickly returning to the Premiership. That said, they have lost their last two, against Boro and Leeds, so they aren't infallible. As for us, two wins on the bounce and out of the relegation zone, albeit only on goal difference. This weekend is going to be a very challenging match, but we have to remember that everyone else will play Leicester too at some point. A win, as unlikely as that may seem, and we could move up to 18th. However, a glance at the other fixtures and Stoke are playing 13th place Middlesborough, but unfortunately 23rd place Sheffield Wednesday are playing 24th placed Rotherham. A win for Sheffield Wednesday and they'll be equal on points with us. Whatever happens, enjoy it if you are making the trip, and as always... ...COME ON YOU SUPER HOOPSA!!!
Cheers Dave. That’s a very generous picture of their stadium, doesn’t feel like that when you’re in it, which I will be on Saturday. It’s Danny Simpson. Others: Frank Mclintock Paul Konchesky Bob Hazell Dave Webb Eddie Kelly I have a Fox mate who reckons there are 3 or 4 more, awaiting an update - I’ll add them into this post. Terry Fenwick George Thomas (apparently in their squad but never played. Shame we can’t say the same for us). Alex Smithies - only ever a benchwarmer for them. Arthur Chandler Arthur Howes
Cheers...updated. Impressive list that goes back a fair old while. Guess the picture is all about the angle. I've seen similar shots that make Brentford's ground look massive too, which is particularly impressive.
I kind of think if we play with that in mind we'll come a cropper. I don't think we should go gung-ho by any means but we should definitely play with the intention of getting something from the game.
Wish we had Derry with us now..................... this is probably a forgone conclusion but because l'm a QPR supporter, old, stupid & pigheaded, why do l feel like anything could happen and we can still get something out of this. Plain dumb, really. Hoping for a win, settle for a point, probably come home feeling thrashed. C'om on you R'rsss, give us something ................................................................................................................................................................... please?
