Exactly. By that reckoning, we are 'smaller' than Swindon, Oxford or Bury. So it's amazing that we can attract any players to us rather than those super-clubs, or even Wanderers or Old Etonians, both of whom have won the FA Cup.
All that matters these days is money, and at the moment we're the 17th-biggest club in the country. Leicester are a few rungs higher, but the fact that they were PL Champions and played in Europe a few seasons ago won't mean much if their big-money signings don't come off. Don't forget, the season before winning the title they escaped relegation by the skin of their teeth, and were in trouble the season after that too. Below the big six, any club is a couple of badly-timed injuries away from relegation.

"WORD reaches this column that Brighton defender Lewis Dunk has got his heart set on Leicester this summer and would be devastated if it doesn’t happen."

I thought he wanted to live up to Bruno’s captaincy... bit of a turnaround!

Wonder if Koscielny's mutiny could make a bid from Arsenal more likely.
Even people born in Leicester would rather escape........ utter ****

"Dunk would be 'devastated if he doesn't get Leicester move
According this local Leicester rag
https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/...r-news/brighton-star-lewis-dunk-would-3084614
Can see how he would be, we both play in the same league - top 6 maybe but not ****ing Leicester.
Who the hell is John Cross anyway?

I don't blame, Lewis.
Club looks a right mess at the moment and bloke wants to play for England whilst he's good enough. Would also get a substantial pay rise to boot.
But I doubt that he'd be "Devastated" if he doesn't go.

Not according to the Leicester paper...
They are re-quoting the Mirror ( post #445 ).
And the Mirror has no quote. Just 'Word has reached them'.
Iffy.

John Cross is an Arsenal fan and the go-to media guy for Arsenal news, so if he's saying this about Dunk to Leicester there seems little chance of Arsenal coming in for him.

I’d ignore him, actively wants the club to lose because we sacked an under performing manager.
