I really want them to do it

Stuff of legends and all that. Really would be a once in a lifetime thing - brilliant for their fans. We won't see a club like Leicester at the top too often in our lives.

I agree that getting into Europe (even Europa) is at best "challenging" for clubs like them (as it would be for us - not that that's a concern just now...). I think the key to meeting that challenge is being pragmatic: rotating second string players in for the Europe games and enjoying the day out while concentrating very hard on not doing a Lolds in the day job (staying in the Prem).

Nice problem to have though.
