We've probably capitalised on more opportunities than we haven't this season.

Certainly in regards to other rivals we have, but with Leicester we've just about managed to keep up. At the end of December after 19 games, we were 5 points ahead of Man U, 1 point behind Man City, 4 points behind Leicester, and 4 points behind Arsenal. 14 games on, and we are 9 points ahead of Man U, 5 points ahead of Arsenal, 5 points ahead of Man City but trail Leicester by 8 points, albeit with a game in hand.

Just shows how our mentality has changed, we have always been looking to the top. We think we have failed to capitalise because we have only been looking above us and not below us.

Its time to make a statement tonight. COYS

As Poch and the lads have been saying all season (and so have I but I'm obviously less important) "take it one game at a time".

We know we need to win all 5 games but I hope the club are taking it one match at a time. Anything else is just putting added pressure on the players.

Not necessarily. Of course it's unlikely but we might yet get away with dropping the odd point and still come out on top. It's a funny old game, remember. ;)

I am in the back of beyond in Ireland, popped into the nearest town (New Ross) a short time ago and on the way in
splattered across the white line was a minced fox.

I think you probably know this already TCO, but I think you'll find more than one on your travels splattered around.

Hoping its a sign though.

Enjoy your time in the sunny south East!

So if they've charged him, he's better off to admit it right? Could he get extra games if he denies it but the panel find him guilty?

Excellent news. He should have got a straight red for being a racist chav with a shit haircut and a penchant for blue WKD anyway.

even if he admits it, he should still get a game ban.

taken from fa website -

Leicester City's Jamie Vardy has been charged with improper conduct for his behaviour following his second-half dismissal against West Ham United on Sunday 17 April 2016.

Leicester have also been charged for failing to control their players following the awarding of an 83rd-minute penalty to West Ham.

Both the player and the club have until 6pm on Thursday 21 April 2016 to reply to their charge

All depends on if his appeal is considered frivolous.
He called the ref a 'fucking ****' to his face, which the ref obviously heard hence the charge... so I can't see how he can really appeal it.

Vardy being charged with playing football while impersonating Albert Steptoe - throw the book at the dirty old man.

FA have charged Vardy with improper conduct

Annoyingly I don't think it'll change much although it could put Leicester on edge. I would expect them to beat Swansea with or without Vardy and I expected them to lose against Utd with or without Vardy.
