We dread to think what Mickey Adams came out with after the game, but as a Yorkshireman it probbaly wasn't printable here.

Harry Bassett also gave the lads a bit of a roasting in his post match comments.

"That was totally different from the performance we produced last week.

"We are the snakes and ladders team of the Premier League, we go up the ladder and then find a big snake to slide all the way down again.

"That result has brought us back sown to earth with a big bump.

"It showed me a different flavour, so from that point of view I've have learnt a lot about the team from this afternoon's match.

"They threw in the towel at 2-0 down and didn't show the desire to come back from two goals down to win the match - that's disappointing.

"None of my players played well and Southampton were hungry.

"That is the most disappointing match since I took over, even more so than the 4-1 home defeat against Liverpool."

So what have others got to say on the woeful City display?

"The revival under Dave Bassett suffered a big setback at Filbert Street this afternoon as City were thumped 4-0 by fellow strugglers Southampton. Ade Akinbiyi was at his wasteful worst."
The Fox fanzine.

"Leicester City's revival under Dave Bassett came to an abrupt end as the Foxes were out-played by a Southampton side which had never claimed a Premiership win at Filbert Street."
