You're a real Leicester fan when.......

[aussie-fox]

so we are top of the league and with that brings out the bandwagon supporters from not only England but all over the world. Soon kids in Asia will be seen with City shirts with Mahrez or Vardy on the back.

 

All this is great for the club but what sets you apart from these new fans?

 

Lets have some fun and remember the old and not so good days, Finish of the sentence "You're a real Leicester fan when....."

 

I'll start off

 

........... When you've seen players like Andy Johnson, Momo Sylla and Danny Cadamarteri be genuine 1st team options

Who cares, just be happy people are supporting the same team as you. Can't be bothered with all the 'I'm a better fan than you', 'they are plastic' cock-boasting bs, just enjoy the team doing well.

Your a real Leicester fan when you think;

Ah yes another WHERE WERE YOU WHEN WE WERE SHIT thread  :xmasbiggrin:

[Jimbo]

you know you're a Leicester Fan when you're earliest football memory is of Leicester City.

 

When you've felt emotional, had tears of joy or sorrow in your eyes, because of results involving Leicester City.

 

When you've had an adrenaline buzz, when you've just lost it and gone completely mental when Leicester City have scored a goal.

 

When you've felt nerves or excitement days before Leicester City's next match.

 

When you've been so angry and disappointed by a Leicester City defeat that you just don't want to talk about football to anyone for days.

 

That makes you a Leicester City fan!

 

It's pointless saying things like I was there when Josh Low was a decent winger.

 

I remember Cambridge in the playoff semi. My first game was the most rubbish 0-0 draw with Oxford.  I've travelled up and down the country watching Leicester play.  I was stood on the terraces at Yeovil in League 1.  I remember Steve Walsh's goals against Derby in the playoff final.

 

It doesn't make me a bigger or better fan, just means I'm older than some and more fortunate that I've been able to afford to travel to games and afford a season ticket every year.

 

What makes me a fan is the passion inside me for Leicester City.

 

If we get new fans across the country, across the world even, then fine by me.  As long as they share just a little bit of that passion.  I'm loving the attention we're getting.  I'm loving the media attention, I'm loving what most fans of other teams are saying about us. 

 

Just enjoying the ride

Its all tongue in cheek. its really just to remember how far we have come really.

You're a real Leicester fan when you are secure enough to not make/join in with threads like this and feel like you need to justify supporting your football team

[HighPeakFox]

When you know all the details of Lee Chapman buying in Oadby blah blah blah

[aussie-fox]

wow, well this has touched a nerve  was genuinely just a thread to laugh at the old days. please delete it if people think its some type of ego booster.

You know you're a real Leicester fan when we're top of the league and you can't help feeling we're bound to fvck this up.

Great Post!. Well said.

It's better than that.  You'll always love Leicester City more than you're own child

 

I suppose it's more like when you've got 2 kids, and secretly your favourite one is doing better at school than the other.

[theessexfox]

When your first 5 or so LCFC games were 0-0 and your dad managed to keep you a Leicester fan 

[Guest]

You can't just enjoy the brilliant fortunes of this team at the moment, you have to log in to Foxestalk to have a whinge. That's a true fan.

[KFS]

End this thread after Jimbo's post- spot on!

[Staffs Fox]

You've gotten on a train full of Sheff Wednesday fans and they feel sorry for you (that's when you know you're bad),

 

This happened to me in 2008

[urban.spaceman]

You know you're a Leicester fan when your first ever game was a defeat and you were hooked from then on.

[ThaiFox]

I named my three boys:

 

David: after David Nish

Mark: after Mark Wallington

Michael: after Mike Stringfellow

 

Interesting to see market stalls out here in Thailand now selling Leicester City shirts! It never takes them long out here to latch on to the latest things!

[Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo]

I feel uncomfortable that non-Leicester fans can now name more than 2 of our players, it is so alien to me

[Foxile]

I've noticed all the 'lads' near me who have been United or Chelsea fans for years are suddenly 'proud to be Leicester' and are attending games.

 

That gets under my skin a little, these are the same 'lads' that would have called us any number of insults over the years, but suddenly their local team is doing okay and they're loyal supporters...we could do without those types.

Why? What harm are they doing to anyone?
