An Away Move Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 On one of the LCFC Facebook groups there's footage of the 1992 Playoff Final against Blackburn. I was there and that dive by David Speedie still rankles. I was outraged and gutted at the time. But I think my worst feeling of 'outrage' was when Erland Johnsen dived in the last minute of extra time in the replay of the 1997 FA Cup 5th Round game against a very good Chelsea team. For that team to cheat their way past us was utterly galling. Memory plays tricks though; I could have swore it was Frank Leboeuf who dived (he scored the resulting penalty) and that the match was a League Cup Semi (2nd leg). What has been your most hot under the collar moment in all your years as a Leicester fan?

poggypogpog Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Alan Shearer booting Neil Lennon in the face. Classed as the saviour of the English national team at the time so nothing was done about it. That and Garry Parker being sent off for taking a free kick too early. Joke decisions.
goose2010 Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 The Penalties given against us at Liverpool last season.
Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 The Penalties given against us at Liverpool last season. That one given for Morgan daring to hit the ball with his face should have seen the referee given a lengthy suspension. From no angle did it even hint at hitting any part of his arm
Captain... Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 First thought was Erland Johnsen, just disgusting and blatant. The whole Atletico Madrid tie was also an outrage. Speedie kinda made up for it when he played for Leicester and I find it hard to be outraged. Seeing as they have all been mentioned I'll go with Dennis Wise trying to sue the club for sacking him after he broke Callum Davidson's jaw while he slept.
Bellend Sebastian Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 The Madrid game for me, as it's the one that really felt like, rather than it being just one individual f***ing things up for us, that there were DARK FORCES conspiring against the mighty and righteous LCFC
An Away Move Posted 6 January 2016 Author Posted 6 January 2016 Losing that League Cup final against Spurs was an 'outrage'. It was the best we'd played out of the three League Cup finals we played in the 90s and we won the other two.

filbertstreet Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 2016-17 Champions League final we lose due to a soft penalty, that was annoying
kingcarr21 Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 The Thai Orgy scandal. To completely disrespect our owners like that was beyond disgraceful.
Guest Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Any from before the 90s? Our best ever team you mean?
ealingfox Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Given all the incidents that have happened since and things that are currently coming out in the wash, I think we can look back at that Atletico Madrid game with a heavy and reasonably well-founded suspicion of match-fixing. Still think Erland Johnsen is the worst though, cvnt.
bovril Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Definitely Shearer. I've never seen an entire stadium as angry as that (bar the away fans of course).
An Away Move Posted 6 January 2016 Author Posted 6 January 2016 Our best ever team you mean? Any one know of any living fans out there who followed the 1928-29 season? To date that was our best team ever. Nice that the current team are matching that as we speak!
Guest Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Being cheated out of the title in 1929 by 1 point by The Wednesday. That 1-0 loss at their place was a disgrace.

kingcarr21 Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Chelsea in the cup for me , I was livid. You still are as well
An Away Move Posted 6 January 2016 Author Posted 6 January 2016 Being cheated out of the title in 1929 by 1 point by The Wednesday. That 1-0 loss at their place was a disgrace. Our 1928-29 team had so many Scottish players (according to wiki). A bit like how I remember the 70s team. A Leicester tradition? Or just two moments of Scottishness?
stripeyfox Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Stamford Bridge. FA Cup. 1997. Erland Johnsen's dive. Lebouef's penalty. The pain!
