Basically you are a Leicester version of Sucky. The big thing being gloating. I just love going the football, meeting up with friends, family. The crushing disappointment of every home game. The odd bet win on some weird score cast/Acca.

You enjoy, will soon be a once only memory….

<laugh> ... had a season ticket for 10 years until the old man passed ... then spent the next decade going home and away as we yo-yo'd between the top 2 divisions ... never missed an FA Cup 3rd round game throughout the 80s and 90s home or away (with 5 of my cousins and our mates - was a ritual thing) ... got a coach back from Uni to climb on a minibus to Exeter for an FA Cup replay ... more than 20 of us in a 12 seater ... lost 3-1 and got back to Leicester around 4pm... just in time to get on a coach back to Uni ... Easter 2008 was in the home end at Hereford United watching us in the third tier of English football ... 2015/16 in the Matthew Harding stand watching the guard of honour as champions ...

Just like Sucky ... <cheers>

That was a couple of years before I took an interest in football, so had to google it. My parents weren't footie fans, so I blame my mate for the shhite team I support lol. Probably around the Chelsea v Leeds FA Cup Final and replay I started taking an interest. Then the Arsenal double winning team in the subsequent seasons. I remember Man Utd getting relegated, not saying that to wind the lads up btw, but it was a big event at the time.

Chelsea have apparently bid £105 million for Enzo Fernandez ... different levels ... but I suspect they may not be taking FFP rules as seriously as we have <laugh>

My memory is getting very sketchy lol.

I remember going to Spurs and getting battered something like 5-0 in cup, about a year before they closed WHL. Actually bit of trivia, there was some player that died recently, who played one game for Spurs and it was in that game.

about the only time Man City were ever decent in the 70's, at the old Maine Road, until they let the money take over their soul, now the place is full of plastics that boo their team at halftime, if they dare go behind before the break. Funnily if my lot had done the job properly in Tier 3, the Man City of today may never of existed.

You're not wrong, a lad I know went around '77, he said it was the biggest battering he'd ever seen our lot take.
Mind we did reciprocate there in '84.

As long as we avoid the Manchester clubs and Spurs, I'd fancy us to beat whoever we are drawn against.

isn’t that Dennis law backheel for city an urban legend/myth about relegating them. That results had gone against them so even winning that game they would have gone down?

best ticket I ever had was for the 2nd night of the two oasis gigs. Less than £20 with booking fee, had the stub and price was £17.50. Crazy daze
