Lads, What a result that was. We played some great football and looked calm and composed in defence. Cabaye and McCarthur were both exceptional today, they put in some serious work and broke up most of Leicester's attacks. we are now sitting 14th in the Table and we hadnt even got a striker for 6 weeks. We also lost Zaha for 6 week at the start of the season. We had possible the most inept manager of all time in Frank de Boer trying his best to destroy us. Everything possible that could have gone against us this season has but we have still managed to drag ourselves out of the relegation zone before xmas. I am very proud tonight and you lot may think im mad but Roy Hodgson is as good as any manager in this country, he has got a team who were destroyed and on their knees and know has them playing with belief and confidence in what they are doing.

Absolutely right the good think is that we have been mostly playing well for weeks without much luck .If we stay up which looks possible now and Roy hangs around for a few more years we will be in a good place onwards and upwards.

If we can stay up this year then keep Roy on board for a few years we should be able to settle this club down nicely and starting pushing on. Im gutted Benteke is out against Swansea but I still feel we have enough to beat them. It would be marvelous to get a win to give him some breathing space from relegation zone. Newcastle and Stoke could be next to sack their managers.

Think Benitez is safe for now not easy to get manager in now .The difference is down the bottom is that we are playing well and on the up in the crucial Xmas period.Where as quite a few teams down there are struggling playing and confidence wise.

I think if Swansea lose to Everton then us next week then clement will be out on his ear , but the seats nicely warmed up for our Tony to take the reigns and keep them up

You may well be right there. There could end up being a scramble for clubs to sack their manager first to try get Pulis in. Hodgson, Allardyce, Pardew, Moyes all out of work at the start of the season now back in full time employment.

Well I think Simon's head is large; always involved in espionage. (Name that tune) |

Brilliant display from the lads today. Jimmy Mac was immense in breaking their play up. Sako loving his cameo scoring role - even wearing a Santa cap after the game. Great to also see Wilf, Tekkers, Ruben, Sako and Jules individually thanking the fans after the whole team had come over.

This cracked me up courtesy of the Foxes match thread: 'First the cricket and then this. If Carlsberg did s*** days...'
