Over the past month I lost a relationship of 4 years, a job and got quite unwell. I wanted to give up badly, but I’d think of Leicester, Vichai and Top when I felt like that and ended up getting a new job against the odds and shook my illness. To the surprise of most I’m even on great terms with my ex partner and I truly believe it’s because I try as hard as I can to always think “how would Top react?” Before I react because he’s the sort of man I aspire to be. I’m so grateful to this club for giving me hope more than anything else, that you can always fight back no matter what happens and that you can be good, kind and still finish first in this world. In the happiest of tears, cracking tequila at 5 am in Australia and hitting the repeat button on Top lifting the trophy and pointing to his dad right now. I love you Leicester, you are all champions in every sense of the word.

Honestly are they all hungover?

Pepe is a real low testosterone type operator.

Thank you mate - the very same to you

Had the worst week I’ve had in years and this is the first time I’ve smiled all week - thank you boys, what a game.

HAHA GET ****ED LIVERPOOL

Wilfred Ndidi is just so good at football.

Cags is a rock

STOP DIVING YOU ****

Vardy you freak. Close

Diving ****er

Cags on fire today.

Because Leicester's everything that makes football the greatest sport in the world. Seesawing highs and lows. Mateship and sacrifice. Going to war for 90 minutes. And fans and players uniting for something bigger than themselves. It's hard to describe but why I fell in love with Leicester was almost encapsulated by the club being the solitary vote against the pay-per-view games. I've loved football my whole life but never followed a club till discovering Leicester. In a time where the game is more saturated (at least pre covid times) with money than ever before, Leicester in my eyes stands head and shoulders above the rest in trying to still remain a football club with the primary goal of respecting the greatest game in the world before anything else.

This. If we can't finish the AFL there, the EPL won't be finishing there.

Been sick for the past 2 weeks, leaving work late every night and been tired and grumpy as ****. You’ve completely changed my entire mood with that half Leicester. What a ****ing half and what a club.

What a ****ing tool. Yes mate, the ref was out to get you. That's why TAA got to stand on Youri's achilles and walked away with nothing. Thats why Mane threw himself down a full second after Albrighton's challenge clutching the wrong ****ing ankle and was awarded a penalty. You didn't seem to have any problem with the ref then Jurgen? You were giving Mane a bloody hug presumably commending him on his acting skills. But yeah lets single out Hamza making a professional foul thats a straight yellow in anyones book end of story. Cause thats what should be focused on. Think the bloke just doesn't like the fact Leicester wasn't scared of his team whatsoever.

He was that fired up he nearly took out Youri haha

This game has made me passionately hate Liverpool. **** them all. Shame Perez couldn't have landed one on Milner just to put him in his place for doing a 20 year olds goal celebration when he's roughly 57 years of age.

Absolutely mate. Didn't overly like Perez before this game but it was hard not to be won over by his efforts today. Came on like an absolute steam train, great assist and ran like crazy.

Wouldn't mind knowing this either. Had to end my stream after the pen otherwise was gonna break a wall.

Was fantastic from the minute he came on.

I'm a new Leicester fan so I can't attest to much historically, but for me I'll never forget the 2-2 against Stoke in 2016. I hadn't called myself a Leicester fan yet but I'd fallen completely in love with the side during the title winning season and had watched religiously ever since. Things were beyond terrible that season and it seemed like everything was going wrong. That game was just insane, Vardy sent off. More players than I could even count on yellow cards, us down 2-0 and Vardy at half-time and Kasper having to restrain Claudio Ranieri of all people from screaming at the referee. There was absolutely no reason why that game shouldn't have been a disaster of ****ing epic proportions yet out of nowhere Ulloa scored. The game wasn't quite a disaster after that but you still never thought in a million years we were going to come back. Then Amartey scored that header from a Fuchs cross with only a few minutes to spare and the amount of passion I felt through a computer screen half a world away in Australia was crazy. Against all odds with absolutely everything wrong the Fearless Foxes spirit had come alive and the last few minutes if anything, we were going to score again. Proudly called myself a Leicester fan since. And I can't find the photo right now but there is a beautiful shot of Amartey hugging Ulloa and them both near tears. The passion and love for the game is what makes this game the worlds game and as obscure a choice as it is, this games one of my favourites of all time because it made me call myself a Fox.

Also I have no idea if anyone here is from Melbourne Australia. But if you are and you want a friend to watch the games with/drink with/discuss all things Leicester/celebrate the absolute beauty of Vichai's legacy with please please don't hesitate to get in touch via pm. And I don't really know if there is anything I can do, but if there is anything at all in the form of overseas tribute to Vichai that can be done I would love nothing more than to help.

For all those who can be at the ground for the upcoming match, please sing your hearts out to ensure Top knows that the arms of a city are around him right now.

First time in ages I've had the time to myself to sit down and watch the boys here in Melbourne, for those with a much better idea of our current formalise than myself, how do you expect today to play out?
