When I lived in Lutterworth, their was a mix of City fans and a lot Cov fans too. I always found the majority of the hardcore fans live in the city. As someone who's a bit of a hobo myself, I always found the farther out from the city I have lived the more mixed the support is. Where as the Leicester Tigers support gets stronger. It may be a class thing? As someone raised around the Saffron Lane, everyone loves footy, and LCFC, and no one wore other team shirts when I was a kid. Now we are promoted, Leicester fans will be crawling out from all over the place no doubt.

Talk-fookin-sport at five am this morning had Matt Laurence, (former Palace and Millwall player) talking about the competitiveness of the championship, and previewing the fixtures, blah, blah, blah. I nearly phoned in for a rant after he spent the first five minutes praising Burnley and the manager for a wonderful job they are doing, and when I heard, "compared to teams that have huge squads like QPR, Forest and Leicester..." I reached for my phone. But to be fair he then did go on to say how fantastic we are, and barring a miracle, we'll romp promotion. However, it did make me think, will City and Pearson get the credit they deserve? It shouldn't bother me what anyone else thinks, but it does.

Good post. You'd think Cov fans would know a bit more about dodgy owners, financial losses and how to lose their stadium, wouldn't you?
