That makes me think of former Czech president Vaclav Klaus

The first he tripped over himself, it wasn't a penalty at all. The second I missed but I heard the commentators talking about it saying it was right on the line so probably should have been. The shot that hit the post was collected from a duff clearance and hit almost immediately, going wide but taking a deflection which brought it onto the post.
I'm not expecting an easy game at all but Leicester offered bugger all and were carved open time after time, saved by woeful finishing from Man City. Another day it could probably have been double figures.
2 penalty shouts and hitting the post makes it sound far different from reality.
To be honest, I'm expecting Leicester to win this one, because:
a) They're on a run of six games without a win and we tend to help teams break ducks (Burnley and Newcastle this season for starters, Sheffield Wednesday a few years ago I think hadn't won all season until we played them).
b) It's the game many of our fans want to see us win because of Pearson et al.
c) It's a game most of our fans (and probably the pundits) are expecting us to win.
d) We're probably going to start with Aluko and Ramirez up front.
e) I probably have as many Leicester supporting friends as I do City ones (thanks Uni...) and I know that if we lose this, I'll never hear the end of it.
f) We need the points to make sure of safety and we never make things easy for ourselves. It's City.
2-1 Leicester, Nugent (2) for them, N'Doye for us.
We won't start Ramirez and Aluko at Lester, but I would expect Diame to be on the bench and to play some part.
Yeah this feels like the sort of game we will lose. To be honest so did the QPR one and we won that, so who knows.
Thanks for sharing all that negativity with us. Your outlook on life appears to be based on sods law.
It was stated as if it's FACT that we'll lose if they play. Of course we could lose, but I just pointed out that we've had 2 of our best results when they played.
It's as close to a fact as you can get, without actually being a fact.
It's a fac.
We are pretty rubbish, but we were way better than them at the KC, we battered them, we just couldn't get the ball in the bloody net.
I see Pearson was back to his usual self in the post match interview. He looked like he was going to either nut the bloke asking him some pretty run of the mill questions or alternatively start crying.
He really does come across as one massive bell end.

That was the first game that I started doubting SB.
We were far better second half when he moved Livermore back into midfield (he'd started at RB FFS !!).
That mistake probably cost us a point at least.
We'll have a better and more balanced team to face Leicester this time. That doesn't guarantee anything mind.....
