    I really can’t imagine Allam possesses the humility or objectivity to self-reflect in such a way. I’m sure, to him and them, it’ll always be the fans' fault, the Council’s fault or whoever's fault.

    Anyway, more importantly, RIP to the five that died. Condolences to all of their family and friends - must be terrible for them all.

    Quite a picture, sort of makes the hairs on your body stand up.

    It wouldn't be a surprise if that was set up.

    A very rare sighting of a fox and a cameraman manages to get a photo.

    Maybe I'm just been cynical but we are talking about the media.

    Maybe, but foxes are very common now in built-up areas, so it is quite possible that is was genuine.

    P.S. More likely than seeing a tiger roaming around West Park.

    I don’t live in the city, but out in Leicestershire, but foxes are ten a penny round here. See them all the time, live, dead, squished. Wouldn’t surprise me if they’re roaming the city too.

    And besides it was taken by a normal fan not a journo.

    It looks like the one that visits our drive. 4 legs, orangey with a bit of white, bushy tail, pointy nose. They all look the same to me. Am I being 'Foxist'

    I see a lot of foxes early mornings and their are few different types! I see skinny long legged ones and also the traditional shorter thick bushy tailed!

    Their chairman has left one hell of a legacy, well done and condolences. Leicester a very fortunate club to have had such a benefactor and leader, both on and off the pitch! As each day goes by, more and more good stories emerge about him and its clearly obvious he has influenced and supported so many associated with his club. RIP

    It does show what an owner can achieve by immersing themselves not only in the club, but also by treating the fans as the lifeblood of the club. It does seem this gentleman was a lovely man, who not only had the club, but the City at his heart and who will be revered by all who were fortunate enough to come into contact with him. Let us not forget the four other poor souls that perished that day too, but as ever the highest profile gets the most recognition. I do wonder how the likes of the Allams look upon this, and I still think if they hadn`t spat their dummy out with the Council, they could have achieved similar status with the followers of Hull City, instead of being detested by all for their complete and utter arrogance, and dumb founded ignorance towards the life blood of the club.

    He appears to have been a true gentleman with all who he came into contact with (even the 'ordinary' folk). The supporters and citizens of Leicester are in shock.

    Dream on Assem. The way to do it with style and above all humility. Something you will never understand.
