Yeah...  I admired his entrepreneurial spirit, that and my son insisted that he owned one!!!

 

schlupp turned up in his Poppy Day kit and Andy King turned up in 14/15 season top!  The cropping is hilarious... Simpson only kept 2/3rds of his head!!!

 

Still has pride of place on his wall with a bag of salt an victory nestled on the top of it

 

His auntie got her bag of crisps framed for him... classy!!!

Was walking around in Prague last April and found a shop that did Russian dolls for football teams. Lo and behold they'd done one for us.

That's Vardy, obviously

 

 

Awesome!  I'll take your Russian doll and raise you a circa '86 duck from Lyme Regis (has been on my bedside table since then!!!)

 

not title related.... but, any excuse to show it off!!!  - looking the little bit worse for wear now - it says 'quackers about Leicester City' on it - I think I was so astonished to see anything Leicester related outside of Leicester, that I brought there and then!

So many things annoy me - not just the photos of King in the old kit and Chris Bloody Wood on it, or the fact that Richie De Laet is there but Marc Albrighton isn't, but also the half arsed addition of Claudio in a circle, "the Foxes" under Leicester City FC, and the PL trophy in the left corner still with Chelsea's ribbons on it. And "Premiership" is infuriating!!!

 

The flags that were being sold on Parade Day (I was out of the country but my mum went along with my dad in place of me, they got me one) were just an absolute car crash of a flag - blatantly hastily redesigned Chelsea flags with their ribbons on the trophy, our badge with a shit fox saying "Leicester FC" and "Premiership Champions" etc. Naturally I have one hanging upstairs but still. 

 

Buy it the worst of all is the following monstrosity.... I work as a carer for a guy with autism. He tries to keep up with City and what he can understand, the problem is though that his mum is a ****ing idiot. She paid £10 for the following t-shirt:FullSizeRender.thumb.jpg.7913d4b06f0be42ae488e0c3e80ff637.jpg

 

Just look at it. "Foxes Never Die" instead of "Foxes Never Quit", "Blyth" who as far as I know has never played a game for us professionally, "Jamie" presumably meaning Bardy, "Maddison" - who?! "Moore" who hasn't played for us for over a year, "oulala" "olukanmi" eh?!!!?, random inclusions of words like City, Stadium, Kick, Army, League, Captain, Champions, Soccer, Fox, goal etc. 

 

But the worst, most unforgivable part of this, is where it says "foxe's".

 

Sickening.

Was in Namibia after we won the league. Parked up in Windhoek with my City flag proudly displayed in the back of the car, a parking attendant noticed it and showed me his collection of "Makalani seeds" - seeds for local pine trees that are about the size of a conker. They carve  animals out of the 'skin' and sell them as mementos to tourists, writing your name. They guy loved the whole Leicester City story (he said he supported Liverpool) so I got him to make one for me:IMG_8776.thumb.JPG.552a516b286a0a1828aa5d20945ffd05.JPG

Basically, a completely unique memento that only cost me 80p. Really chuffed with it.

It's that tiny 'kick' at the bottom right which makes it...

That sounds fantastic! I've got various stuff from being confirmed champions, but i'ts saved in my Sky planner.

 

As a matter of interest, is it possible to replicate whet you've got?, I for one would love to have that 

and I'm sure there is plenty more that would too!

I have to admit I'd be reluctant to replicate it all, despite how easy it would be to do. Recording everything is an absolute labour of love (and hate when we're crap.) so I'm really precious over it. It's taken years to find the reliable sources and places to download the games, and takes a long time to record. When we won the title I must have spent a days worth of time recording stuff. It's not just the recording, it's also the sifting through programmes finding the bits that are relevant!

 

I've been doing it since I was 17 and started in the 07/08 season. Managerial sackings coverage, including the non-sacking of Pearson and full coverage of Ranieri as well is in the archive. 2015-16 is well over 800 files including all the misc stuff. There's also all but one UCL game with a "stadium sound" version, no commentary. The Copenhagen away game is spectacular, you can literally hear the Union FS guys on their own at one point.

I would love to share it more widely on YT, anything with PL footage is a nightmare of course.

Here's an example of the footage directory I keep, it doesn't include all the misc footage outside of matches. I should get a proper documented archive sorted really. (2015-16) (2016-17 so far)

tl;dr - I'm a really precious saddo

Is that a CRT tv with a built in video recorder behind it?

 

Come and join us in 2017, I think you'll enjoy the improvements. lol

Not a sad at all - I wish I could have kept a catalogue like that but I just wasn't in a position to or didn't have the resources! Plus I should think we're entitled to remember the season of our lives in any way we want!

 

Would you consider making it available via a torrent or something? Or at least sharing your sources so that others can replicate it? I'm sure there's a lot of us that are very envious of your collection!
