    I’m envious of them. Not jealous but envious for sure. I’d honestly rather see us win one Premier League title (and chances are I never will) followed by 60 years of division four obscurity then death than go through my whole life seeing us compete every year, play great football but never quite do it.

    But Lesta don't give their fans that. They won it once then returned to mid table ****e. There's no fun in that, hence them sacking their most successful manager the following season instead of giving him the chance to get them out of trouble. Since then they have sacked the snake and are close to sacking another.

    Fans couldn't be happy and satisfied enough 5 months after Ranieri delivered the title to back him, plenty wanted him gone...so I don't believe that. I'm not sure anyone would be satisfied with that model of running a club. Or maybe they seriously are a very small club and don't really have aspirations so long as they are in the PL surviving.

    We might fail but I'm glad I support a team that wants more. I guess people would rather be Wigan then than a team vying for CL footy every season.

    I don’t buy that to be honest. The title win was a glorious achievement for which I’m sure all Lesta fans will be eternally grateful and they really should rename the city Ranieriville or something. But, he wasn’t the man they needed in the present. Sticking with the wrong guy because of what he did in the past has done Arsenal no good.

    ...and I'd much rather be a Leicester fan with a big shiny trophy in the cabinet and record books than getting the 'most improved player' award <cheers>

    Suck it up Spurly <laugh>

    dunno about that mate. Some people like the highs and lows of the rollercoasters. Some people prefer the steady teacups.

    I know which one i'm a fan of. Granted we're all individuals so whatever floats your boat really

    You'll have to forgive our cousins down the road. I think the fumes from Port Talbot affects their brain development.
