Unless we sneak up via the Play-Offs, absolutely gorgeous watching their demise.

It’ll go down to the wire most likely. Still they’re bottom if Southampton can beat Man City…

I can’t believe it’s been over 10 years since we last played them!!

I think the atmosphere and hostilities at both the home and away games may well surprise some of the younger lot!

They’ve still got to play a lot of their relegation rivals - if they get a new manager bounce they’ll stay up.

No heart for this dog fight, I think and hope they are doomed.

We don’t need that type of negativity around here thank you.

There could be some cracking Midlands derbies with us, Leicester, Birmingham, Forest and possibly Derby.

Rumour on social media is they're going after Jesse Marsch. If that turns out to be the case, they might as well have stuck with Rogers.

If they go down they should make it the big game on match of the day to see him suffer big eared twat.

They would go straight back up as nearly every team that comes should with the parachute payments.

You’d think but isn’t there the whiff of serious financial difficulties with them? Didn’t they only sign one player, on a free, despite being in the prem and also selling that defender for £70mil +?

They are at the end of that era post title.
Schmeichel gone, Vardy probably done at the top level. Maddison and Tielemans will be off in the summer. They need a complete rebuild now. Would prefer them to stay up one more season so when they do get relegated they’ll be a proper basket case.

Apparently Maddison told their fans to fuck off at today's game. Knew he'd come through for us.

Will hit them harder than most unless they bounce straight up. The owners have completely overhauled their club with the training ground and an upcoming stadium expansion.

I bet the bills to keep their training ground running are massive. An expensive squad too.

Let's have it right though. Historically, we are near identical sized clubs from very similar sized cities. Until their recent success, they hadn't won one of the two major trophies in this country. Crowds also historically near identical. Forest and Derby hate each other, Villa and Birmingham hate each other. Coventry and Leicester should be the derby.

With our recent form of becoming unlikable at this level, it would be tasty against Leicester. Although you can imagine the policing for it home and away.

no different to Gyokeres on here really - some defending him and some saying he’s gone and given up

I think Vardy has another year left on his contract - not sure he'd even cut it in the Championship these days.
