Or Konchesky with a flukey floated cross.

I had a covering £10 bet on Defoe getting the only goal last weekend at 50/1 which I thought were good odds. It nearly happened.

Upson getting the only one at Leicester will probably be about 120/1 if you fancy it.

If Sam allows his team to lose to a Matthew ****ing Upson winner, I'll join the Twist lot.

Bloke is a born loser.

I remember thinking something similar about Uncle Avram up at Newcastle.

Carroll was out (... ), they only had Leon Best back from a long injury and he hadn't scored for a year. I thought we might just get something.

Then he hit a hatrick and we lost 5:0.

Upson was in that defence - we have come such a long way in 4 years :thup:

We aren't any different really in all my 38 years of following them.
The only difference now is the potential is touch more tangible.

I'd be happy if we nabbed Schmeichal off them when they go down. Maybe Jamie Vardy too at a push. If not the Danny Simpson as cover at right back so his Mrs can come and watch the games 8-)

Valencia and Reid back. Playing the team we always beat. Me going for a week-end in Sheffield, including a trip out for the game. What could go wrong?

2-0 to Leicester.

I think this is a game we've just to win if all that early season promise isn't just going to turn out to be pie-in-the-sky. 1-0 to us. An Upson own goal would be a real bonus.

I back our players and team. Never boo, never leave early, never get on their backs.

But, I've never had so much disdain for one of our own, as when that slimy, cowardly c*nt left a young James Tomkins out to dry in the defeat at home to Wolves.

The worst captain in our history.

I've never actually been to Leicester's town centre before, any advice where to head to for a drink before and after the game?

I largely agree with this post, but, laying an egg? Not so much...

Back in the late 80's, when my girl of the time lived there, there were these shopping arcades, with all sorts of crazy independent outlets. If you can find them, have a pint or two around there. Indeed, if you have time, get down on one of their curries. Leicester is top notch for Indian food.

I've never been to the new place. Always liked Filbert Street, though. Had its own individual charm.

Confident we can get another win here , gonna go for a 2 nil away win with Sakho and Downing scoring the goals. Starting line up would be:

Adrian
Jenko Reid Collins Creswell
Noble
Song Kouyate
Downing
Sakho Valencia

Even Ms Brady referred to Scotty as captain by mistake. An easily made mistake considering the commitment of Upson.
