We Believe! Our message to the Foxes

Tomorrow, the rollercoaster ride continues.

It is round two of Leicester City against Watford, with a trip to Wembley for the winner and a shot at promotion. Our message to the Foxes is simple. We believe.

Little more than a week ago, City's season looked all but over with only the slimmest of chances of making the play-offs.

All that changed in spectacular fashion last Saturday with their first league victory at Nottingham Forest in 41 years.

The flickering promotion bid was reignited in the most dramatic fashion imaginable as Anthony Knockaert fired in the winning goal during injury time.

Meanwhile, rivals Bolton were held to a draw by Blackpool, allowing City to squeak into the final play-off place by the narrowest of margins.

The drama continued on Thursday in the first leg of the play-off semi-final at the King Power Stadium, as David Nugent scored with only eight minutes remaining to give the Foxes a slender 1-0 advantage going into tomorrow's return leg at Vicarage Road.

In this most topsy-turvy of seasons, City have managed to scrap their way back into genuine contention.

They should take great heart from their fighting spirit. There are two matches between them and the Premier League. Can they do it? You bet.
