I think everyone is analysing our home support a little too deeply and I think the exact same would happen to any fan base in our exact position.
To me, pretty much the only factor playing any part in the silence / occasional groaning / more people leaving early is just a complete lack of jeopardy. I can't remember any point in the season so far where it's felt like we absolutely need 3 points, even when we lose or draw it's hard to feel any real anger or disappointment because we all feel like we'll probably win the next one.
There's no one single game that we absolutely need to win until either A) The chasing teams get closer or B) We need a win to get over the automatic promotion / League winning line.
Unfortunately without the jeopardy, anger and disappointment of losing there is no real euphoria of winning, it still feels good but just not as good as it would if Southampton were 2 points behind us. I'd go as far as saying that if we were playing in this exact way but we were 3rd in the league hunting down the top 2 the King Power would be as loud as it ever has been.
More or less every game we're expected to win and then we win. Even now I'm fully expecting that we'll lose to Leeds away this month but it barely bothers me because it feels like we'll easily get enough points from the teams 8th and below. I fully believe that if we did drop a load of points this month and end up in a 3 way battle for 2 automatic promotion spots the stadium will get a lot louder and more encouraging as a result.
Basically we're currently the equivalent of Evel Knievel jumping over a squirrel on a BMX
