West Brom fell back down to earth with a bang on Thursday as Leicester completely dominated in a convincing 3-0 win.
The Foxes are a top side and demonstrated as such throughout the match, but Albion also shot themselves in the foot.
Sam Johnstone did well to stop Kelechi Iheanacho from scoring early on and that incident was a sign of things to come.
Leicester created numerous chances and our goalkeeper was the only player who came out of the match with any kind of credit.
Okay Yoskulu, Conor Townsend and Dara O’Shea have been brilliant in recent weeks but all underperformed, and most of our Super Fans were appalled with the display.
The result means West Brom are dead and buried in the relegation zone with just six games left to turn things around.
Here are the thoughts of our Super Fans on the abysmal display.

West Brom had shown big improvements in recent weeks so this defeat is a little tough to take.
Sam Allardyce will be particularly disappointed with the defence, as all our good work was thrown away inside the opening 45 minutes at the King Power.
It is now back to the drawing board for upcoming games against Aston Villa and Wolves.
As some Super Fans point out, we need to put the Leicester game firmly behind us.
We should accept they are a top team and on their day are capable of beating any team – unfortunately for us they had one of those days on Thursday.
