Was chatting to some of the boys last night that went up for the game and they reckoned we were fully in control until the OG and after that just fell apart.

Although QPR won 2-0 at City yesterday, I thought they were very ordinary. Leicester are poor at the moment, but dominated a lot of the game. I reckon a long term Championship winners lay bet on QPR might be a money spinner, hopefully trading it off before the next transfer window opens.

Bit of a mixed bag for leicester fans at the moment, at least you can always rely on Mandaric being a 2 faced twat though....

Thursday, Leicester chairman Milan Mandaric urges City fans not to turn on manager Paulo Sousa. Mandaric tells the Leicester Mercury:

"Things go wrong but we can't turn things upside down now, for God's sakes. We can't turn around now and say Paulo needs to go! Now is the time for us to show how strong we are together, how united we are behind our manager and give him a chance to get the results...It is a difficult time, but it is time to be united and not to listen to speculation in some parts of the media. Get behind the manager and give him support. I believe in the manager and the team and we need to give them our support. It is as simple as that. As far as I am concerned I told him on behalf of the owners and myself there is tremendous support for him overall and we all have to pitch in and do the same."

Friday, Leicester manager Sousa is sacked, after just nine league games in charge. A club statement, comfortingly, said:

"The club would like to state that Paulo Sousa is a first-class individual, but that this decision has been taken in the best interests of the club and our ambitions to move up the npower Championship. The search for a new manager begins immediately and the club anticipates a quick appointment."
