‘You’re not fit to wear the shirt!’: Leicester fans FUME after their first-half capitulation at Fulham – which saw them fall 3-0 down in 44 minutes – with away fans letting rip at Dean Smith’s men as they head in at the break
Leicester City fans were left fuming at their team’s first-half performance, which saw them fall 3-0 to Fulham in the opening 44 minutes at Craven Cottage.
Footage showed visiting fans yelling ‘You’re not fit to wear the shirt!’ in the direction of the leaving Leicester players, as they fell apart.
The result is likely to be a pivotal one in Leicester’s bid to escape relegation from the Premier League – just seven years after their top-flight triumph in the 2015-2016 season.
Leicester went into Monday’s game in 16th place, only ahead of Leeds United and Nottingham Forest on goal difference – which was hit by Fulham’s rampant first-half goalscoring courtesy of Willian, Carlos Vinicius and Tom Cairney.
Cairney got a second after the break, before Harvey Barnes got one back for the Foxes just before the hour mark.
Dean Smith was brought in to the club last month to try and get the team out of danger following the sacking of Brendan Rodgers, but performances like this mean that there are serious fears the Foxes will be plying their trade in the Championship in August.
