    Leeds! Bloody hell, I'm still extremely grateful for NP's contribution to us so I wouldn't wish Leeds on him. I had a discussion with some Fulham fans when he was linked to them, he could've done a great job there but they wanted a head coach so NP apparently declined.

    21 games last season we were bottom of the league:

    POS....CLUB.................P...W..D..L...GF..GA...GD..PTS
    20......Leicester City..21..4...5...12..20....33...-13...17


    Now we are second in the league only due to goal difference.

    POS....CLUB.................P...W...D..L...GF..GA..GD..PTS
    2........Leicester City..21..12...7...2...38...25..+13..43


    We have exceeded our points total from last season with 17 games to go!!! <cracker>

    Also still the lowest position we have been is 6th this season <cheers>

    Amazing team spirit.
    Ranieri has got us so well set up and organized (now watch villa put 4 past us!)
    We are hard to break down
    It wasn't pretty today, but those 3 points look stunning to me.

    I agree. CR has lost a place since christmas, Pearson didn't do that.

    We are in such a good position for a place in Europe right now it's still hard to take in. Yesterdays res meant much more than 3 Pts. Clean sheet, away win, beat a team around us, 1st win in 4, still keeping the doubters at bay, and, and, and.

    They'll haveto keep waiting for Mahrez and Vardy to get injured, thats all they have left to cling on to.

    People are waiting for our wheels to fall off.

    Even if they do, with the exception of Arsenal the rest have not even got their wheels on yet.

    3 defeats in 10 months coming against Chelsea (when they were good), Arsenal and Liverpool.
    Utterly mental.

    We're still not very good though...

    We're just an average team who are "doing well at the moment" <laugh> <doh>

    that's something that gets missed quite a bit, I think we (WHU) have been pretty lucky with fixtures, all our big away wins came after those teams had played in a mid-week fixture while we rested
