The recent Leicester City vs Derby County match for me highlighted more than issues about football on the pitch.

Firstly, a welcome three points, a more gritty performance and further emergence of the younger members of the squad. 

However, on top of that, from where I sit in the ground, it also felt like a snapshot of a fanbase wrestling with itself.

A 'Sack the board' banner appeared not far from where I sit, aimed at the club’s hierarchy and accompanied by negative chants directed at Jon Rudkin and owner Khun Top.
