...or May.

Some teams already jogging up and down the Park. We are staying up anyway. Not fighting to qualify for Europe.?..all else is abstract. A few extra quid for finishing higher up the table ? seems like a heck of a lot of work.

Got the flip-flops on and thinking about conserving the energy to give my pretty girlfriend a good seeing-to later. Actually, maybe i am starting on Saturday with a shocking hangover. Too much partying.

Playing against a relegation team ? ''ah i am too tired and don't fancy getting the shins kicked off me again. ''

I always recall Harry Rednapp teams as being notorious for downing tools in April.

What can be done to fix this ?

How about a Europe-wide competition for all Mid-table teams ? Take one team from each country. When you think about it, they will all be decent teams and all likely not looking over their shoulder in fear of relegation- next season.

Could be fun...Imagine ...Palace, Wolfsburg, Valencia, Udinese, Hibernian, Nantes, Sligo Rovers, Heerenveen, Spartak Moscow , etc. Certainly more interesting than either the Carabao cup or even the FA cup. Certainly the audience-figures would be lucrative. Imagine the excitement in those places when a Premier League team rolls into town ?

any other ways to motivate mid-table teams in April/May ?

which Leicester will start against Everton today ?

surely Mid-table teams should get an extra few bonus quid for beating motivated teams in April/May ?

Motivated teams = relegation threatened teams or anybody fighting for a prize higher up the table.

Something tells me their invitation may get 'lost' in the post this year.

Leicester have been crap for ages. occasionally a good team turns up. More often than not though, they're crap.
