I bet the percentage of Leicester fans coming over here is miles higher than us going over to their board, they care about us so much they post on nearly every thread over here
To be honest no one really gives a **** about Lester City over here, they all only support 3 teams, chelsea, Liverpool or Man Utd. The owners are small players here, they run the duty free (which is corrupt) at the main Airport and have a series of Hotels the main one been the Pullman. They also own the Orient Express and a cruise line I think. Lester Shirts are sold at the hotel and Duty Free, but that is it, never seen anyone wearing a shirt in public around the city or even seen any fake ones for sale on the stalls. I have seen fake City shirts, I cycled to Phuket recently and seen this guy on a shrimp farm wearing one(it was a pretty bad one mind) still I have a photo of it somewhere and will post it.
TBH, I'm getting fairly bored with Leicester this Leicester that! Nigel has gone, we've got Barmby - better outcome!
Although I started the thread, I have to say I agree. I mean, they aren't even very serious promotion rivals at this time. Let's forget about the Thai Lady Boys and focus on ripping Leeds/West Ham/Boro etc etc. At the end of the day they are a bunch of clueless mon£y bags duffers who will be the next Colne Dynamoes (or something)!
I like how throughout those clips the scoreboards show Leicester are only actually winning once or twice
Bloody hilarious, had me in stitches! Isn't about time we dropped our fascination with Leicester now though and just move on?
Never gonna happen unfortunately. Under every possible circumstance in the future, you can guarantee someone will bring it back up. Promotion, relegation, manager sackings.. even if we simply finish above them by a point there'll be some we-spent-far-less-than-you-and-finished-higher comments.
i am thinking along the same lines. if NP fails this season which i think he will and with all the money they have spent so far and possibly in jan then bailout could well happen. if the thai ladyboys wants a PL club then Everton is for sale Now. much better option than the sad foxes will ever be
The same way in which most of the Premier League will be laughing if Man City balls up their title challenge. If teams like Leicester spend lots of cash and boast about their promotion chances then they can expect comeback from other teams if they fail/are filing, not just from us. Obviously the Pearson situation adds a bit more to it for us but it seems that when clubs set themselves up for a fall there's a comeback from rival fans.
And the Gold award for funniest post using irony for 2011 goes to Nick HCAFC - Funny post Nick, have you anything to say to your fans?
We had a right laugh about this on our board. They made another one too, before their ALL IMPORTANT friendly with Real Madrid (which Kaka jetted around the world desperate to play in, don't you know): [video=youtube;W2v_a6UabZI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2v_a6UabZI[/video]
In fairness I've only seen modest comments from Man City fans so far, they still seem quite overcome by the idea of coming into money. Leicester fans on the other hand, jesus wept we've been listening to how great they are and how wrong the league table has been for over a year now...
