I would also think that most football people will now WANT them to go down whereas before today that would've been the opposite.
PS .....Ska'd - I can't see how a whole season could be called a 'blip'! I really don't think his achievements should be underestimated
To be fair to Ska'd it was me that called last season a blip. I take you point that it was a whole season and it shouldn't be considered as lucky or not deserved, but in terms of Leicester's average and expected league positions at the end of a season, finishing 1st last season will show up as a blip!! His and the teams achievements last season was remarkable and maybe they should have been able to build on that success, not by winning it again but probably by being up near you guys, but where they are now is probably more realistic in terms of their usual year on year performance.
