I used to watch that show as a kid... I may have dreamed this part:- Frank Worthington had his back to the ball and is combing his hair... ...as the ball approaches he turns and controls it and starts doing a keepy uppy routine!

What was it Jermaine Beckford said? Ah yes:- "Pressure is for weak people"

I met the fragrant Miss Cracknell at a signing session in 1993 at Ainleys Records by the Clocktower:- ...She signed my "So Tough" CD:- "To Adam xxx" ....sigh. A month or two later I saw Saint Etienne play in London with an up and coming band called Pulp as support. I told my pal:- "Mark my words - this Jarvis Cocker fellow will be a star".

I am from Leicester originally but I had never seen this:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sekLKU2BUiQ "The Girl With Brains In Her Feet" is set in Leicester... Filmed in 1997 but set in 1972... It is a weird kind of "Kes" (substituting Leicester for Barnsley). The aspiring athlete girl goes to the fictional St Bradgates School with a view of Old John! ...she uses the hill for training (and also the odd bit of nookie at the top - next to the monument). Full marks for the authentic Leicester references throughout - you get:- - Red Leicester Cheese - Melton Mowbray Pork Pie - Leicester Council Houses - Leicester Mercury - Leicester Market - Going Skeggy for your holidays - People calling each other Me Duck - Saffron Lane Athletics Track (where I attended my Lancaster Boys Sports Days) ...it is actually better than I expected. Although having a teenage female lead - it dwells rather too long for my tastes on the murky subject of menstruation.

Thanks

Further to previous parking inquiry - on another thread it says there is parking at the stadium for £6... ...where abouts is this please?
-
I hadn't realised that the Tigers are playing at 1.30pm I am driving up from near London and was going to park at the car park round the back of the Tigers Ground (used to be £5 all day the last time I visited Leicester). We will be arriving at about 1.30pm - so I guess all the parking will be used be the rugby fans... Any alternative parking suggestions?
-
Albrighton needs to take a long hard look at his play in the last 5 minutes of the game.... I know he is not a defenfer but some of his decision making was very poor... ...gave possesion away on the right touch line needlessly a few of minutes before the peno. Anyone know what Perez's beef was about when it all kicked of after the final whistle?
-
Thanks I just made that my PC Desktop Wallpaper.... ...two of my favourite things The Beatles and Leicester!
-
I got banned from the Fighting C*ck the other day..... ...because I pointed that whilst their new stadium is fine and dandy their team is not actually very good. Never thought I could bring myself to support a German team against an English one.... ...but how I laughed when that 7th goal went in.
-
What a great end to the weekend... I just went on the Fighting Cock to guage their reactions.... Got called a **** - made my day!

When my old Dad worked at British Gas East Midlands HQ in De Montfort Street in the 70s he knew a Division One referee.... This referee said that Souness was the most hated player in football... Constantly swearing and mouthing off etc - they all hated him.

I only live 20 miles from Luton in Hertfordshire - can't get BBC Three Counties Sport on FM though - bloody annoying!

MCKTV down for me today - son wanted to watch the Man U game but coming up with an error on loading? Noticed yesterday for all the named sports channels didn't work - enventually found EPL 0 was showing the game. Are they doing work or something?
-
Schmeichel goes into the box for the late corner.... ....and we play it short and lose possession. Kasper was rightfully fuming. I'd love to know our goals per corner ratio since Maddison started taking them... Has a Leicester team ever scored less from corners?

Mine is only SD - maybe only a local issue in Hertfordshire. -

I am watching the game via Virgin TV and ITV - picture keeps breaking up - is it just my setup.... ....worse than MCKTV on Kodi for the Leicester games! -
Caglar Soyuncu emerges as new cult hero at Leicester City
theadmans replied to urban.spaceman's topic in Leicester City Forum
Great performance today - I really like this guy.... Saw him pre-season at Cambridge and he looked dodgy - seems to have improved greatly since then.... ....but anyone else think he could have thrown himself at the Bournemouth goal and got it away? Can't help thinking he was too afraid of clattering himself on the post. -
u21 v Cambridge? ....The way this was said does he mean the whole team will be u21? I have a ticket and have taken the afternoon of work for this - will be bit dissapointed if no stars feature.
-
I am with my son and his pal - so no drinking for me either... Will get a McDonald's before the game as I see there is one very close to the Abbey Stadium... Probably not get away with leaving the car parked in Maccy D's for the game.... ...Anyone know what are the residential roads like around there for parking?
-
I am grateful for your help earlier in the day.... ...but I still say being locked into Facebook as a communication channel is a huge misjudgement on the part of MCKTV.
-
So if you had joined 1000 years ago using a stone tablet.... .....you'd still be recommending that method of communication.
