    2whites can't find the right words but a dreadful 24 hours, and especially for the Leicester supporting Mrs 2whites. Thoughts go out.

    Cottager, many thanks for your thoughts and massive shame yesterday, Mrs 2 Whites is remorse.
    The owner has made such an impact, not only with LCFC but also the communities and supporters. I'm not sure how much is known but for instance for their next away fixture, breakfast and scarves are, or probably were to be given to the traveling supporters. This certainly isn't the first time as this happens frequently. The man was a giver, albeit very wealthy , he donated £1m each year for local causes, building a new wing at a children's hospital recently. Their new training ground to be built has seen the local bowls club benefit from new turf and expert help from LCFC groundsmen. In a nut shell, charity starts at home, he made Leicester a home for sure.
    When compared to other club owners he stood with or above the best, I think we have one ourselves, not that many hold him without suspicion.
    Many thanks again, Cottager.

    Appreciated Cottager.

    Vichai will leave a lasting legacy on and off the pitch in Leicester. His investment was emotional as well as financial.

    The tributes from our players illustrate how highly they all regarded him. Heart wrenching scenes as they and Vichai's family visited the KP today.

    Our fans are devastated.

    Our fairytale was not supposed to end like this.

    Saw a clip of the wreath laying on the pitch today, Foxy. Very emotional, very sad and yet very lovely.
