Imagine a Southampton or Ipswich, they win that by a few goals. But let’s blame the referee as @Nick thinks

The Southampton and Ipswich that are 13 and 14 points BEHIND us? Okay, sure

SeaSeeEffCee · 2025-12-09T22:14:10+0000

Tonight showed us why our defence will cost us points over the course of the season. We've been converting with startling efficiency for most of this season so far but when we have an off day in front of goal, like we did today, we're not good enough defensively for one goal to be enough to win the game. They barely created anything all game and we still conspired to let them score with a man advantage. 1 clean in 10 games isn't good enough for a team who are supposed to be title favourites.

If we keep up our home form, that should be enough for the autos.

Win Saturday and the 4 points is a good return after a defeat at Ipswich

This was always a very hard month. We’ve played all our hard away games.

Tbf Southampton and Birmingham will be tough games away and they both come up soon. Just need to get through this, win the home games and see what we can get away.

love how we’re playing this season but we should have just closed that game out, we’re so weak down our left side defensively, EMC and Da silva great going forward but left us wide open down that side again, it’s a goal every game,

Arrogance will be our downfall, they are picking up and we’re going the other way. We should have won tonight

I assumed they can't read or write so wasn't aware of its existence.

There’s no forum, they use smoke signals from the chimneys to communicate.

I think January looks difficult too. Birmingham are very good at home and it will be Leicester's biggest game of the season playing us.

The next 8 weeks is tough with the limited rotation available. A lot of the teams we are playing will make 3/4 changes a game whereas we're likely to see some players playing every minute.

I have literally said we didn't play very well on the match thread and at no point have I said "that result was because of the ref".

Do you want me to sign something for you and your mate because you're a bit obsessed? It's cute.

Alright Eric calm yourself

We’ve got a great chance playing Ipswich and Southampton in the next 3 games, we need points in them

Next 3 games are Bristol, Southampton and Swansea

We’ll win the 2 home games at least

I’m gonna trust the Opta Boffins and relax in that if we fuck it up, at least we’ve done it being an anomaly

Playing Leicester at home will also be our biggest game of the season.

Wrexham A. L
Sheffield Utd. H. W
Stoke A W
WBA H. W
Middlesbrough A. W
Charlton H. W
Ipswich A. L
Preston A. D

I mean chaps, it’s a disaster, let’s all lose our heads.

Could be worse, could be a Preston fan and you’d never get to experience such elation / depression.

Will it? Millwall 3 days later will be a far bigger game.

Gint11 · 2025-12-09T22:18:33+0000

Ref and Lino was shite tonight. Was our first goal offside? Proper late call and I couldn’t tell from my angle.

I was looking for the same this week haha 1/25 to get promoted, £100 on us not to make it would have been nice to settle the nerves

Shocked no one is offering it. There would be loads of us trying the same

As long as FL and the players are arrogant. I agree, the danger in this league is Ipswich and Southampton. I also weirdly dont want sheff utd picking up too much. But apparently wba missed an absolute sitter to make it 3-3 past Saints today so theyre not indestructible

Yeah it was, EMC was off.

But strangely none of those 3 games is against Ipswich

Can you lay against it on betfair?

Of course it will. They’re our local rivals.

How many points were you expecting against Ipswich and PNE away?

Sheffield United are not getting anywhere near us.

quinn1971 · 2025-12-09T22:20:24+0000

Least it’s the start of another unbeaten run,

In that context, yes.

In the context of Leicester having nothing to play for in other games and treating this as a cup final it's a big different.

We've been there before with nothing got play for and treating these type of games differently.

It was a very good decision from the lino unfortunately.
.....but a decision that most Lino's wouldn't have spotted - just our luck tonight....

Their keeper saved a point at the end for them against Norwich

For Southampton to catch us we would have to completely collapse.

If that happens its Middlesbrough and Millwall that are the main danger, not Southampton
