NewsNow reports that we're considering taking legal action against Leicester City, same as Burnley did. Maybe a few more £Ms to add to the transfer pot.

Thought we settled on that. Out of court?

Wasn't it Everton that settled with Burnley? This is for the season we lost in the playoffs to Southampton.

That was a settlement by Leeds with Everton (not Leicester) . Aus.

Then fans should sue LUFC for reimbursement on the absolute shambolic attempt at promotion in that game.

It was quite possibly the worst playoff final ever, accruing big costs to our fans.

Sticks in my mind, like it was last Sunday, that game. ?

Leeds settled for £1.5m because we weren't relegated, but finished below Everton. Burnley got £30m because they were relegated, and the financial loss was much more significant.

Sorry, should've said "same as Burnley did - with Everton".

We also didn't think we had enough of a case to push for more from Everton. The Leicester case is very different, and the Burnley vs Everton ruling sets a new precedent, which did not exist at the time.

Yep, that Burnley Everton precedent ruling is key.
