Up The City! Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 The ultimate goal for any football club is to one day do exactly what Leicester have done, every time City play I hope we win, every season I hope it's our season, otherwise what is the point?

Dr Balls Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 What I can see is us recruiting Tomlin, keeping Kodjia, boosting our midfield and defence, and continuing our form from the second half of this season into next season. That's what happened for Leicester from last season into this, and for us under both Cotterill & Johnson in League 1. So there is the challenge. How high it gets us up this division I have no idea but we should be aiming top half, with at least a hope of getting around the playoffs. After that who knows!

Well, let's take a look at Leicester City. 110 years of league football, 47 in the top division, 62 in the second tier. One solitary season at tier 3. So already, we see that Leicester are and have been, worlds apart/ahead of us. How many years have we spent toiling in Div 3? Then there's the cups, LC have four FA Cup final appearances to our one (but like us, no win); LC have won the League Cup three times. LC have played in the UEFA cup. There was already an enormous gulf between ourselves and LC before we got to this season. Then we can look at Leicester, the town. Their rugby club is one of the most successful in the country, multiple league and cup wins, and the best supported, compared to perennial losers Cmon Bris, who are not in the same league as LRFC (literally and metaphorically). Leicester CCC have won the cricket county championship three times, neither Glos or Somerset have ever won it. Mark Selby wins the snooker world championship, again, while Judd Trump flatters to deceive, again. As sporting cities, one is already pretty successful, and Bristol is a pile of sh1te. BristolSport #workingtomakeBristolaworldclasssportingcity - good luck with that! Have a nice, optimistic, day (at least the sun is shining here).

Monkeh Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 I'd settle for doing a stoke first, getting up and becoming a regular mid-table team, push on from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Septic Peg Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Blimey, this sorta thread will go down a storm on gaschat... Remember their past threads where it came back to bite them on the backside? Whilst within the next 10 years or so, I can see us doing a Bournemouth and reaching the PL one day (realistically for one season I feel) and whilst there are examples like Leicester who didn't have a hope in hell of winning the PL last August and doing the unthinkable, there is always a chance. However, there are also examples like Villa. It all goes to pot and you sink lower than a whore's knickers. Will we get promoted? One day probably but certainly not anytime in the foreseeable. Will we win the PL? I highly doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogkev Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 I'd be as happy as any Leicester fan is right now if we could simply be Champions of the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
