C’mon Sky Blues come back and win 2-1. You can do it against this bunch of pretentious pricks who have an underserved lead.

The red was your bog standard tasty tackle, wasn’t two footed, wasn’t high, just very late. Refs a joke

Yeah watch Leicester sit back and try and pick us off second half. The goal's a big (underserved!) advantage

If that is a high boot what about their goalie in the first half with his boot an inch away from out players head going for the ball. Fucking shambles some decisions here. I thought their red was borderline I'd be pissed off if it was one of our players but I'd understand why it was given.

Good first half. I'd still take a draw here as they will be hard to break down and still retain possession well. But performance wise I have been happy with us

Just don't give away the extra man advantage like Carl Baker stupidly did a few years ago.

It was a red, player was completely out of control and would have broken Bidwells ankle if his foot was planted

Rage inducing stuff this game, we've done very well to contain them to 0 shots and the ref trying his best to help Leicester out, I'm not going to respond rationally right now, that's utter bollox and has ruined the game.

I don’t agree with the pen decision at all but I also feel the red could have been a yellow.

I would prefer a ref that gives the benefit of the doubt so no pen and yellow card and let the players win the game.

He’s made himself the narrative and it ruins the game.

Neither a pen or a red card to be fair and I’ve watched both in slow motion. Refs going to ruin this game.

really good first half performance and were unlucky to be 0-1 down.

And that’s the thing - because he gave the penalty he had no choice to give the red as their player was even more out of control

Was he fuck out of control. It was a strong tackle and got the ball, the sort you’d demand in a Derby game.

It's defo a pen

Don't think defo red(might be tho it's bad tackle) for Leicester player so our fans need to stop moaning and playing victim. Refs gone in our favour overall

Never a pen. Leicester player not in control of the ball. Thomas is kicking the ball…not slide tackling. Bullshit decision.

It’s really good of Winks to ref the game might as well have the fucking whistle.

The ref has no idea the keeper was out of control with the high boot and nothing.

Nigel Pearson in the studio ffs.

I couldn’t see it as a penalty - he got the ball - he was high I guess and it was a risky challenge but he got the ball - Thomas has had a dire game in truth - don’t see it as a red but a reckless challenge

No he hasn’t. So many fouls given with no yellow cards to Leicestet.

Where's his leg meant to go then? It looks worse on replay.

So now if you kick the ball, and your natural follow through catches someone, it's a foul?

Surprised that rat could take the penalty o thought he would still be rolling and you see him look up and the ref and go down again.
