Premier League Here We Come

[foxes1]

Well done to NP and the boys on their promotion to the Premier League.Hope we don't let ourselves down.

[Wullie]

Good Luck, hope you have fun. Personally I think the premiership is a load of old crap. Can't wait for real football again
Seriously , give it a few years , (if you survive) and you'll be as bored as the rest of us.

Congratulations. Not sure that I would want to be there myself, but as it's never going to happen, I needn't worry.

I intend to enjoy it even if its for only 1 season

[Wullie]

What makes me laugh is most of the players from the relegated teams transfer to the promoted teams because they are " Premiership players " and too good for the lower leagues. Well if they are that good then they wouldn't have been relegated
In all honesty what is there for the average fan ? The glory of playing Anzhi Makhachkala or Viktoria Plzen on a Thursday night ( think of all those pirate programmes. Or a League /Milk/ Carling or whatever it's called cup final every 20 years. Getting all excited because your team have forked out £10 million on someone no one has ever heard off and can't pronounce , and ends up your top goal scorer with six goals.
The top four is more or less stitched up and the rest is absolute cobblers .

[Wullie]

sorry to burst your bubble foxes1 . Good luck mate

[derby1884]

I suppose as a Derby fan I should be harbouring dark thoughts but nah! Well done - you've been the best team in the best division of them all.

Not at all sure I even want us to join you in the Premier Lge circus next season, though. Life in the old Division 2 suits me fine.

As you celebrate, however, spare a thought for Droylsden FC today....after their first win of the season last week, it was back to reality this afternoon.

As an Ipswich Town fan, its a fully deserved promotion by Leicester , Foxes1.

Question.
However, how many of these players will actually start in the Leicester first team in mid-August next season ?

Answer.
Probably two or three at most, which is a shame as these players deserve their chance after fulfilling their Premiership dream.
However the Leicester board will feel the need to sanction £25m worth of new players, (like Wullie says - on players you or I have probably never heard of before).

Good luck anyway and enjoy those away trips as well.

I doubt we will be joining you, instead our 13th consecutive Championship season beckons.

That's an interesting question. However, last Saturday when we beat Chelsea, Palace started with 6 of the side that got promoted last season, and 2 more came on off the bench. That's despite Holloway signing 16 players last August (largely a waste of time & money) and Pulis signing 3 or 4 more.

Anyway, well done Foxes. You've put Redknapp in his place.

Yes but where does that money go ? Agents and players. It means nothing . £80 million so the agent of Carlas Kickaball asks for £15 million. And he is crap . Absolutely crap . Like that American bloke we bought from USA. Such massive contacts and you can't get rid of them . Until you get relegated and offload them to Leicester .
In my mind, the money is wasted. It means nothing. If the player is a dud then you are stuck with him. If he turns out to be a gem then the "" BIG FOUR "" buy him.

Good luck Foxes!

On your way could you throw us down a ladder please.............. Good win at Forest yesterday but not sure it will be enough (optimistic view )

[Kickoff3pm]

Really need all the Midlands teams in the top flight.

Only problem with getting to the premiership now is - see that feeling you have right now - thats likely to be as good as it gets each season. It's very much like being a gladiator in the ring with 15 other gladiators and the lions and tigars are let loose. You just pray they eat the others before you. But you know you'll be eaten sooner or later it's just a matter of survival time.
