Leicester City's David Nugent says the pressure is on promotion rivals

“agreed Yorkie but think would be nice to see how our team got on against Wigan. We are lumbered with this match due to the last team selection so we may as well see it thru. by the way did you also hear that secret talks may be on the cards to bring Mourino back to Chelsea. I did indicate on here that Abramovitch wouldn't ever wipe the egg off and eat the old humble. just shows anyone can change attitudes toward folk. There's hope for you yet Dorset.. joking mate.”

“With Defoe and Sturridge now doubts for England's friendly against Brazil, I reckon England could do worse than give Nuge a call-up.

He is MAGIC.”

“Luxpaul

Just right which is why I said the Cup is not our priority

Winning the Championship or getting second place has to be our specific aim. Promotion is our priority.

I would rather be 6 points up with the opposition having 2 games in hand rather than us being 6 points behind with 2 games in hand

I would happily sacrifice the Cup for automatic promotion this season

I am just surprised how few ruthless fans there are out there.”

“Yes, I was a little optimistic, but at one point other than the hull game things were looking good, next weekend will be a tough game against the posh, the pressure will on the chasing pack going into the cup week, agree with you luxpaul.
Yorkiefox, yes confidence is everything, a win against posh and win against Huddersfield will do great”

“Lux, As Nigel said, we have to concentrate on our own performances cus thats all we can control. It is a concern though. We need to keep our key players fresh and injury free.”

“Not quite right Ash, but it's always good to be optimistic!
After to-days results it's as you were in the table with Cardiff, Hull, Watford & Palace all winning. As you say, with three points at the Posh we'll go into the cup replay still in second place, even if Hull and Watford also win next weekend. But, and it's a big but, Hull are at home to the "sheep" on the same night as the cup replay and if they win that (?) it will put them in second place! Then come the cup weekend, even if we are knocked out by Huddersfield, we still don't have a game whereas Hull and Watford are both playing. Hull are at home to Charlton with Watford in Brum! So, theoretically we could just as easily be down to 4th place instead of 2nd, albeit with two games in hand. Keep smiling and let's hope some of the other results do go in our favour we deserve it after some of the luck we've had earlier in the season.
I don't have any doubts that we'll be there or there abouts come May, 1st or 2nd I wouldn't like to say but either will do for me.”

“I agree Ash

Confidence is everything and we are certainly on a high at present- lets hope it can continue”

“With the cup game coming up, we need the results to go against the chasing pack, be nice to get 3 points against Peterborough and to be a least 3 points up going into the cup game and if we do beat Huddersfield, we know we will be still second after the cup weekend against Wigan”

“Nugent has a rare talent for being an instinctive goalscorer. He can maufacture something from nothing and can make the difficult look absurdly easy.

He deserves a Saturday with his feet up watching with interest as Hull go to Millwall (not an easy place) and Bolton and Charlton are no push-overs for the Udinese second team and Palace respectively.”

“A gerat stike to win the game for us Nuge. Many more goals to come from you and Woody. Keep up the great work. Same goes for the rest of the team!!”
