This is really yesterday's post. I have to confess that instead of showing some discipline and knuckling down to write, I allowed myself to be lured into an evening of wine tasting, delicious food and song.
A girl is entitled to some solace after a bruising 3 - 0 defeat.
I just had a quick look on Talking Balls and you won't be surprised to learn that the other Foxes fans are restless. There are a number of comments about Ollie finding time to do his weekly BBC column when perhaps you should be focusing on ensuring the survival of our team. Of course it is not a logical argument but the juxtaposition of another crushing loss with his lighthearted comments does feel a little grating. Fiddling while Rome burns?
He's not the only manager experiencing a rough ride from the fans at the moment. 'Average Grant' as some are now calling him, is feeling the pressure following Chelsea's defeat earlier this week in the first leg of the Champions League against Fenerbahce.
King Kev, on the other hand, has returned triumphant. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe he is The Messiah after all. If this continues it won't be long before he is walking on water.
And Steve Bruce must be puffing out his chest this morning after beating his former team yesterday. Have some of that!
It's a world of winners and losers for sure. I just wish we spent a bit more time in the former category.

Sounds great that we've managed three wins on the trot and scored a hatful of goals doing it. But look at the opposition:
Fulham - relegation fodder
Reading - not far short of that status
Spurs - by their own admission, had a nightmare
Don't get me wrong, I'm well chuffed (especially as the bloody mackems have learned how to win as well so we *have* to stay ahead of them) but we've got to be realistic.
Could we have done what Boro did yesterday? Nope, I don't think so. Well done to them in helping keep the Premiership race interesting by denying ManUre a further 2-point lead over the Arse.
Boro did good for sure. Enjoy Newcastle's success while it lasts I say. Oh and try not to say bad things about Reading in front of my lover. He gets terribly upset :-)

How could you say such things about my team.
Hope they survive, however.

*shrugs* Just being realistic judging by their current form and the fact that we managed to beat them - and let's face it we're *not* that good. Much as our performance has improves over the last couple of months, the teams we've played recently have all had a hand in losing their encounters with us as much as we've won them.
Nowt against Reading. Just the way I see it! And I'd happily swap Reading staying up for the mackems going down. Any day.
