Assume we're going all out to win this one after surrendering the cup game. Our focus must be on doing well in the league 🤔 The focus this year is the FA Cup |

Tough ask but with Warnock pulling the strings, never say never.

David Webb appointed referee......Just one added time booking for PNE in his 1st match at Bristol City.

Massive ask this. If Edwards plays, the Leicester no 10, Mavididi, looks even better than the Plymouth guy who made a mug out of him, he'll need to improve defensively very quickly.

I think we'll get a surprise win. Harratt 3-1.

DATM's champions-elect according to Canuck's Championship Table Prediction, so a win would be a real shock for most Town fans.
I see Leicester have 2 ex-Town goalies playing for them atm (Ward and Smithies), though it's doubtful either will be on the bench for them on Saturday. Time will tell, but you're looking at incredible playing resources for the Championship.
So, just not to big them up too much, here's something from YouTube that probably wouldn't be too much out of place on the Brian Horton thread:
Same commitment again, please Town! Best time to be playing them, but can't see us avoiding defeat here, unfortunately-

Looking at both teams I fear this could be a real battering, 5+ territory. So I'm going to predict a Town win, 2-1 (Ward, Koroma) UTT.

Leicester should piss the league this season. I think they'll blow us away if they're as good as I think they'll be with the coach and players available. But there's a non zero chance we'll get something as Warnock is very savvy against good sides. Although we've lost both games so far there's been encouraging signs in each

We will get pumped, Leicester have in my opinion strongest team in the league currently. Can't see anything but a home defeat on this one. Have the same feeling and expectation I had when playing Burnley last season and worry Neil will treat it like the inevitable "free hit" he did for the 4 nil away defeat.
0-3 home defeat. Vardy (2) and Mavididi

Not looking forward to this one at all and probably 0-2 would be a reasonable result given the defending so far this season...
But hey ho it’s HTAFC we’re talking about here so who knows -
But surely surely defending practices have to be rigorously worked on until Saturday !

Not looking like we’ll see any new faces in time for this game and no idea what the attendance will be.
Holiday season plus not seen how many SC’s we have sold.
Think it’s best to take a more laid back approach for this game.
Town. 2. Leicester 0.
Ward
Koroma.

Their keeper missed tonight's game with a muscle injury and Souttar was left out amid interest from other clubs. Only another 368 multi million pound players to go before we become favourites....

Was gonna say I'll have a pint of what you're drinking, but no drink is THAT strong so I'll change to a toke of what you're smoking  Would love your optimism for this but can't see anything other than a Foxes win, although I've put draw in the poll. Must have been feeling more optimistic yesterday  |

Tough game. I expect a reaction but they have so much more quality than us - as do most of the championship.

Oh the days of Depoitre spinning Maguire and pinging it into the bottom corner. Take me back. I know most of us don't look back too fondly on our time in the Premier League, but I thoroughly enjoyed that game. Depoitre making a mug of Maguire was a highlight. Kachunga, Danny Williams and Sabiri all standouts on a day where town were arguably the best team against an outfit who'd just recently won the league. Would be over the moon with the same result on Saturday. |

They're maybe most peoples favourite to win the division, which is understandable.
very tough game but maybe a good time to play them? Before theyre full up to speed after the summer?
Is Tom Lees back? He'd make a big difference

If Iheanacho starts 3-1 Leicester, if Vardy starts we have a better chance. So lets hope for the latter.

Is Tom Lees back? He'd make a big difference I'd agree with this, they're going to be seen as this season's Burnley or Fulham, best having a game before they get into their stride. Every game is going to be tough for us though, we're still a work in progress & young lads who are still to show their full potential. I'd be happy with a draw on Sat. |

It will be tough but we will have a good go.
Some teams will go toe to toe with them and get hammered. We won’t do that and I fully expect a performance similar to that against Middlesbrough at home last season.
We will get the odd chance but need to be clinical.

They looked woeful against a very very good cov team and still won. That’s the difference we would have and in fact did last season got hammered by cov 4-0. Maybe a poor start will force us to spend something (wisely) as a case of emergency to staying in this league. 4-1 town
