Let it go: The case for a sabbatical from this sad Leicester City side
Kicking off at 7pm on a Sunday night is awful for a match-going fan, but for those of us following along at home, it’s perfect. Do whatever it is you need to do, have a nice dinner and sit down to watch your team.
That is, of course, if you support basically any team other than Leicester City.

Nobody’s steering the ship but Leicester City fans already knew this
The 22/23 relegation season saw heavy use of the phrase ‘sleepwalking towards relegation’ or those at the top and on the pitch being ‘asleep at the wheel’.

24 little hours - Hazzetta dello Sport 2025: Everton (A)
‘What a difference a day makes, twenty-four little hours’ goes the lyrics of the Dinah Washington 1959 classic of the same name. In the LCFC verse, that could be translated ‘What a different a win makes, three more points to the tally’. The thin slither of light after the doom of recent weeks.
