4everfox Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Sheffield Weds fielding an ineligible player and escaping a points deduction the year we were relegated to league 1. Looking back I'm glad we got relegated to League One. It did us a world of good.
Vlad the Fox Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Remember those days, the outrage turned into rage after the Blackburn game if I remember right Was that the night an angry mob rioted outside the main stand throwing bricks through the boardroom window?
Sunbury Fox 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. Johnsen's dive sprang to my mind first of all too. I was there. The ref gave them everything all night. I remember my mate saying after about 60 minutes - after yet another soft decision in Chelscum's favour- that the ref would give them a penalty at some point. Sadly, he was right. I remember O'Neill rushing on to the pitch at the end brushing aside Gullit's attempted handshake before being physically held back from confronting the ref. Such was the general outrage about the decision there were even questions in the House of Commons the next day about the need for video evidence to be used in football! However, despite all that Wise attempting to sue the club for wrongful dismissal at a time when we were in administration and could have been forced out of business had he succeeded tops everything for me. Simply appalling.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 6 January 2016 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. The one where Savage got Edinburgh sent off by being a cheating ****? Would've been more an outrage if we'd have won that, no surprise we were the better side with an extra man.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 But in all seriousness. Kermits penalty will never be forgotten. Absolute disgrace to put your ego in front of the club. I'd have been pissed off even if he scored. How dare he? Would you bollocks
SemperEadem Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Our fans abuse at Beckford away at Peterborough.
The Doctor Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Think the angriest I've ever been was Forest away in 2011, when they came back from two down. I was absolutely livid at both our team and the ref. That the one where Kasper got two yellows for absolutely nothing surrounding a soft penalty? Worst refereeing performance I've ever seen.
foxes_rule1978 Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Taylor, constant outrage... akinbiyi too. The outrage just grew with every week and every signing he made
Great Boos Up Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Looking back I'm glad we got relegated to League One. It did us a world of good. On reflection your right, we all can appreciate much more if you take a step backwards to go forwards. Things like Atletico Madrid and Speedy and long trips back up the M1 after play offs just make us who we are; and I accept it as the experience of supporting this club. So sometimes the victories are sheer euphoria that no other club supporters in the top flight of English football will EVER feel. That's football and why I love it so. But to add my pennies worth: I'm usually pissed and singing my lungs out at Leicester but I seem to remember 10 minutes injury time against Newcastle until they won!
Lionheart10 Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Definitely the Madrid game that ref had been bungee without a doubt!
sdb Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Kermogant was my initial thought. Morgan v Liverpool Johnson dive at Chelsea Shearer Lennon Probably all been said!
MPH Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Forest fans chanting ' same old Leicester, always cheating ' after the cup game was called off as our players life hung in the balance in the back of an ambulance. Still gets me angry even to this day...
Collibosher70 Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Add judas Brian little going villa, and you have about covered it
Collibosher70 Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Honestly big joe I knew little would go and it didn't wind me up that much...he turned the club round and I'm thankful for that but we knew villa would be hard to turn down

Simply appalling. Didn't Danny Baker get sacked from his radio show that night for raging about the ref?
Lcfc_1995 Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 When we lost 5-1 at Forest,and Lee Camp kept celebrating in front of the Leicester fans when they scored. Or when Watford ran onto the pitch in the play off semi final after Deeney had scored
HighPeakFox Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 I'm not sure I've ever had a greater sense of outrage than when Parker got sent off vs Athletico, and then the game went away. I was there with my brother, who'd just lost his wife to cancer young. If ever there was a game I wanted to go well.............
pleatout Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Pleat out Shipman out Plenty of outrage there. Oi!
Leicester_Numan 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? It was definitely the FA cup and I don't think I was even half as outraged about it as Danny Baker
Leicester_Numan Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 I was more outraged at Steve White's sideways swan dive than David Speedie's dive especially as we'd come back from 3-0 down and looking like we were going to win it. Mike Reed giving the penalty against Chelsea in the FA cup, the Madrid rip off to name a few.
MC Prussian Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Seeing Blackpool's "pitch" in real life. I got lucky - me view wasn't impeded by a pole.
theessexfox Posted 6 January 2016 Posted 6 January 2016 Far from the biggest but Alan Hutton getting Konchesky sent off yesterday by half-headbutting him was fairly annoying.m
