Yikes! We lost! Three Foxes refuse to panic after defeat to Leeds. We ask how Maresca lost the tactical battle?, whether Casadei is a busted flush?, and why on earth McAteer can't get a game now? But all in all we're still happy with our Trumpwells and our beloved Leicester City.

Another happy week for the Fosse Arms crew as we discuss wins over Sunderland and QPR over a pint or three of Trumpwell's IPA. We look at the stats behind our midfield dynamos Winks and KDH, and ask what it would take to prize them away from the King Power. We then disagree about where this Leicester City side would finish in the Premier League. We'll find out next year folks!

Killer and Norm take over The Fosse Arms to discuss Leicester taking Liberties in South Wales. Vestergaard scores but gets stuck in treacle and the wingers impress. Will Enzo EVER play Daka? When will the mauling of a team occur? Killer provides some interesting goal difference stats and reminds us that he said Leeds would come good. Can the Black Cats outfox us? How about the R's? The predictions are in... and you won't be surprised.

Three Foxes sip their pints of Trumpwell's and ask 'Is the game up for Leicester City's Championship rivals?' We try unsuccessfully to find some reasons we won't get promoted, we look back on a week of two more victories against high flying Preston and low flying Stoke, and savour a ten point cushion to third place. Ooh we could get used to this Championship lark... but only for one season thanks.

The Fosse Arms mob review Leicester City's two trips to the North West at Liverpool and Blackburn. We ask whether these tactics are too haywire for the Premier League, whether Connor Coady is actually going to get a place in the team, and whether Wilf has now fully sussed the AM role. We salivate at the prospect of going seven points clear of third if we can beat Preston, ask whether Stoke will be the latest visitors to the King Power just to park the bus, and curiously preview Cheltenham V...

Three Foxes get misty eyed thinking back to Bristol City and the return of three club legends. We review a tremendous September, wonder how Hamza can be Captain, then dropped, and marvel at Wilf's new skills. We look ahead to Liverpool at Anfield - the mother of all free hits, and the more prosaic task of beating Blackburn away. The Leicester City train seems unstoppable at the moment and were loving it!

Lift off for Leicester City's 2023/24 season. Finally the confusion clears in the Fosse Arms as the Foxes put in a top drawer performance, as well as getting the three points. We celebrate a really great night at St Mary's, we revel in our best ever player getting his scoring boots back on, and we raise a Trumpwell's to getting back into the Automatic Promotion places. And incredibly, Killer predicted the exact result! It's another Championship double gameweek too!

The Fosse Arms is full to bursting. Three loyal Foxes reunite to discuss defeat to the Tigers. We wonder whether signing 260 wingers is quite the smartest move, review an indifferent transfer window for Leicester City, and gingerly look ahead to a fierce test agianst Southampton. Oh, and we try and help Tim understand that Harry Souttar has a brother.

The Fosse Arms debate this week looks at yet another scrappy one goal win, as Leicester City continue their best ever start to a season at the New York Stadium. With the transfer window closing we ask who might still be heading out, and to where. We preview another double gameweek with a winnable fixture on Merseyside, and a small step up in quality with a visit to the King Power by the Tigers (no, not those ones). Oh, and we talk about lots of eggs.

The Fosse Armers raise a glass of Trumpwells to the best start to a season in the history of Leicester City football club. We review victory over Cardiff, dig behind the results to ask if all is as rosy as it seems, wonder how certain players are getting into this side, and doff our caps to the leadership shown by Super Enzo so far. We glance forwards to the end of the transfer window, and around the Championship to see who else we should be worried about!

Norm and Killer drink the Fosse Arms dry whilst discussing a great results week for our heroes. Maresca receives an unexpected school style report and the most expensive Championship bench becomes the most expensive 'left out of the squad' as a pair of forgotten keepers warm their seats. An eye is cast over our departed stars and it's great to be Huddersfield's first home game. Predictor table is all square and we simply cannot forget the VAR!

Killer and Norm enjoy a table for two at the Fosse Arms and celebrate a winning start in the M69 derby. The game created more questions than answers though and the Fosse Armers do their utmost to provide solutions to these. Occasionally they even make sense! There are previews of Burton and Huddersfield with the two stalwarts wondering how many of the championship's 'most expensive bench ever' will get a run out. The early predictor table is very tight. E-I-E-I-E-I-O up the football league...

Three Leicester City loons return for a ludicrous fourth season to talk, argue, and ultimately hope. We ask whether Enzo is a genius appointment or a crazy gamble, we mull over those who have gone, and those who have heard the clarion call of the King Power. We talk possible formations, dreadful pre-seasons, and glance across the division to find who on earth might be competing with us this year. We are the favourites for the Championship title. Come and join us on the ride!

So long Premier League. There was no last day fairytale this time for the team that wrote the book on them, and three Foxes sink into their Trumpwell's IPA to reflect a little on what went wrong, and a lot on what's to come. Who's in and out for next season at Leicester City? Just how bad are the finances? And most importantly, are we coming straight back up? As usual these three clowns have no idea, but there's probably no one better at pretending that they do! Thanks so much for supporting...

Killer and Norm share a trumpwell's IPA whilst discussing the unexpected draw at Newcastle. Has the wrong gamble been made as our destiny slips out of our hands? Or will the point ultimately be our saviour? Will Dean Smith ever pick the correct starting eleven and will Norm ever understand the phrases 'if your life depended on it' and 'Head over heart'. It's down to the wire folks- Come on Leicester! With a cherry on top please!

If 'fedupness' was a word, we have it in spades at the Fosse Arms. We wearily review Leicester City's 3-0 defeat to Liverpool, and wonder why Smith's not learning from his mistakes. We highlight ten key decisions that are costing the Foxes relegation, from Top to bottom. We compare ourselves to the other 'best team ever' to get relegated; West Ham of 2003, and ask if there is any hope at all of not conceding six against Newcastle.

Spineless, hopeless, and truly pathetic. That's not just the presenters of this show but our embarrassment of a football team who cravenly gave up at the Cottage in defeat to Fulham, and with that, pretty much gave up our Premier League existence. We ask just who is fit to wear the shirt, whether Dean Smith is starting to make a few too many mistakes, and just how many players Liverpool would have to have sent off before we could even get a point next Monday. Shudder.

Oh Lord. Will this ever end. Three frazzled Foxes bemoan another failure by Leicester City to put an end to the relegation misery. We ask where all the new signings went, why Maddison took THAT penalty, and why Dean Smith can't seem to get the midfield right. We then refill our Trumpwells and have a look at our rivals' relegation run ins. Oh, and we include a bit of this poetry: https://mrclementscreative.wordpress.com/portfolio/danger-artist-at-work/

Yes indeed folks. It's happened. Leicester City Football Club have won a game of football and the Fosse Arms boys are excited. We review Dean Smith's improbable team selection, discuss the effect that John Terry is already having on our defence, welcome the return to the King Power of Caglar Soyuncu, and ask how on earth we got a performance out of Soumare. But we're not getting too cocky. We preview Leeds and Everton, albeit with a bit of a spring in our step.

Three loyal Foxes find hope amongst the debris of yet another defeat. We reflect on the things that Dean Smith got right at the Etihad stadium, mull over a return for Leicester City to a 352, and sigh with relief that we picked the right defenders for a change. We then recharge our Trumpwells and look ahead to what becomes our latest must win game against Wolves, whilst acknowledging that this one really is!

Three Foxes tear up the script and do their best to keep up with constant current news coming out of our ridiculous football club. We breathe a sigh of relief that it wasn't Marsch, wonder where the Benitez story came from, and give our thoughts on the imminent appointment of Dean Smith & Co. We also hold those to account who are simply getting every decision wrong at Leicester City at the moment, take a brief look back on a week to forget against Villa and Bournemouth, and hide behind...

Three Leicester City fans settle down in the world famous Fosse Arms to digest the news that Brendan Rodgers has left Leicester City. We run the rule over the former boss, ask where he sits in the pantheon of Foxes Managers, and breathe a collective sigh of relief that a divisive recent period for our club is over. Then the fun starts as we take a look at possible replacements, both short and long term, and look forward to a hugely important home double week against Villa and Bournemouth....

Three Foxes settle into the Fosse Arms with overflowing Trumpwell's IPA tankards, to chat Brentford, diving referees, and many many things Crystal Palace. We wonder which of the monsters from the Martin O'Neill era would most help this somewhat timid Leicester City side, and re-assure ourselves that the bookies still think we might just be ok. At least we've got a week off worrying. Madders for England!
Published 03/20/23
Three Foxes continue to have their patience tested, despite a better display against Chelsea. We puzzle over Brendan's selections, review the club's dire latest accounts, marvel at just how much our players are paid, and get into the detail of the relegation picture to see if there's a way out for Leicester City. And at the very minimum, at least these presenters turned up for their show!

Inexplicable team selections, demotivated players, no idea how to shoot a football at a football goal. A fuming Fosse Arms tears it all to pieces as three Foxes completely lose their patience with goings on at Leicester City. We painfully review Blackburn, Southampton, and the Manager's position, before asking whether it would be at all possible to get a result against stuttering Chelsea and those two blokes who thought the grass was greener in London.
