…there’s one more bloody game. Leicester City vs Southampton, 4.00pm Philbert Street or thereabouts

Things I know about Leicester;
It’s a **** town near Derby
If you’re walking there from the station, it’s on the right after the rugby ground.
You can’t miss it, it’s basically St Mary’s in blue.
Apparently they won the league or something, in 2016. That can’t be true, surely?
Also, they beat us in the most joyless, soul destroying FA Cup semi final in football history recently.

There’s a nagging sense at the back of my mind that there’s some other significant result I should remember; but I can’t.

Let’s have some pictures;

Let’s have it right btw, if Mick Channon knew what Twitter was, he’d be upsetting people and embarrassing himself and us, just like Matt has been. But he’d still be Mick Channon, like Matt is still Matt.

Anyway, moving on. Up next, working man’s George Best, and world class bingo caller, Oh Frankie Frankie :emoticon-0159-music

Meanwhile, Leicester have a world class keeper, Casper is the best in the league imo. We have two to choose from, a giant in concrete boots, who wasn’t offered a contract, and some other bloke who was. Hooray.
Back down memory lane, there was this bloke, 2nd only to Banksie imo

Alright, that’s your lot. If by some miracle we don’t get beat, I’ll be back in August to do the first game of the season; which, I’m calling it now, will be a 0-0 draw at home to Burnley. And I’ll be there with my poor old dad because I had a rush of blood to the head recently and renewed my ST. Over 50 years I’ve been following these twats; it’s been a few islands of happiness in an ocean of pain, but oh, some of those islands…

Alright then, God bless you all; may football be the winner on Sunday

Archers? You may have been around. The other significant result was a 4-4 draw between the two sides in Saints first season in the top flight. Never in my life did I consider Gordon Banks ever conceding oñe goal let alone four!

Leicester were in fact the first team I supported, the reason being that I had and still have relations living there. The person responsible for this was my grandmother's husband whom she wed in the spring of 1963 in the weeks just before the Cup Final. I was mortified when a team that finished 4th that season could lose to a team (Manchester United) that finished 4th from bottom. My Dad soon fixed that fixation by taking me to the Dell.
