It certainly hasn't been a great week for Leicester City, and in particular manager Nigel Pearson and captain Wes Morgan.
In fact I doubt Morgan has ever had a week like it in his career.
The skipper has been a man mountain ever since he joined City and he has remained one of City's most consistent and reliable performers.
In fact, just a few weeks ago stats compiled by Opta had him as one of the top performing defenders in the Premier League.
However, after turning Steve Caulker's low cross clumsily into his own net at Queens Park Rangers on Saturday, a moment which turned the tide against City, he had a bit of a shocker against Liverpool on Tuesday night.
He inadvertently teed up Steven Gerrard to fire Liverpool ahead and then compounded his fumbled backpass by pulling down Rickie Lambert, prompting a red card.
It was pure instinct to drag Lambert back, but needless as the England man isn't exactly renowned for his pace and Morgan could have recovered the situation.
It just about summed up his week … and City's.
They are being punished for momentary lapses, for those split second mistakes. This division is unforgiving.
Whether it is switching off and failing to track an opponent, as Riyad Mahrez did at QPR and Paul Konchesky did for Adam Lallana's equaliser on Tuesday, or snatching at a goalscoring chance, all City's good work is being undone in a heartbeat.
Because City aren't a million miles away, which compounds the frustration.
Besides the performance at Swansea City and to a lesser extent the showing at Southampton, City have performed reasonably well.
The have shown plenty of heart and commitment, and no mean skill at times, especially in recent weeks by Esteban Cambiasso.
Which makes the incident which happened towards the end of Tuesday night's game even more disappointing.
Yes, there is overwhelming frustration at the way things have been going for City in recent weeks, but the vast majority of City fans are still getting behind Pearson and his players.
There was a chant of 'there's only one Nigel Pearson' during the first half at Loftus Road and at the final whistle on Tuesday night a chant of 'we love you Leicester' rang out while some fans applauded the effort the players had put in, despite being down to ten men for a significant period of the game.
That was except a little group of supporters behind the City dug out who voiced their frustration towards the City bench.
Yes, undoubtedly Pearson should not have reacted and he certainly shouldn't have used any foul language, as has been claimed by some supporters on Twitter.
But I always find it hypocritical when supporters hurl abuse in a player's or manager's direction and then complain bitterly when they get similar treatment in return. The attitude seems to be 'You can't say that to me, but I can say whatever I want to you!' It doesn't really make any sense does it?
The whole incident and subsequent coverage in the national papers doesn't do anyone associated with the club any favours and isn't a true reflection of the support City receive from an incredibly loud and loyal group of fans.
Hopefully, at tomorrow's press conference, a line can be drawn under it.
And while we are at it, let's draw another line under a very disappointing week and look ahead to a hugely important game at Villa Park on Sunday.
