johnny the fox Posted 4 April 2016 Posted 4 April 2016 Are LCFC the best team to support? does a bear do his business in the woods...
st albans fox Posted 4 April 2016 Posted 4 April 2016 I can sum up what it means to support us with the following my twenty year old grew up pretending he was an arsenal fan at school. You are either, Spurs, arsenal or Watford around here (odd Chelsea but not many untill recently). he couldnt have coped with having the pee ripped out of him. School can be a tough place if you open yourself up to being ridiculed and aren't big enough to deal with it in a physical sense. My youngest boys, 5 and 8 have never shown any real interest in football before. The eight year old cam to the Xmas Bolton game a few years ago and whilst eight goals went in, he was counting the supporters. But young kids, especially, love a winner. now the eight year old is happy to tell his arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs supporting friends that he is Leicester and the five year old has asked for a shirt. the staff and players at the KP probably have no idea how far the tentacles of what they have achieved have spread. All those years where my eldest used to shout at me 'why did you make me a Leicester fan' as the scores came through on a Saturday afternoon. Now I come in after the game and the little ones say 'did we win again'? What a crazy time to be alive! puff out the chest every Monday morning as I stroll into the office and the gooners look jealously at me. the Spurs fan has finally realised that their chase is forlorn and is now more concerned about those behind than us. I'm in china next week. the locals had no idea who we were before. I'll let you know if our name has spread into the semi rural parts of the country where the PL isn't regularly shown on tv.
WJH Posted 4 April 2016 Posted 4 April 2016 Being in the situation you guys are now I wouldn't say there is a better club to support no.. What Leicester will do this season will be the biggest footballing shock in England since anybody can remember I mean who was the last team to really shock the nation and win the league we can't really class Chelsea or City cause these oil clubs just purchased the league. We could say Leeds in the 91/92 season maybe or even Aston Villa in the 80/81 season were any of these 2 anywhere near the title previous seasons ??
stripeyfox Posted 4 April 2016 Posted 4 April 2016 Be incredible if we see League 1, Championship and Premier League title victories in the space of 7 years Wow. Shit just got real.... When you put it like that... Wow.
shailen Posted 4 April 2016 Posted 4 April 2016 Was working at Birmingham with a different team, and one of the guys called me a glory supporter for supporting Leicester. I genuinely felt proud that we are seen in that light
AyewJoking Posted 5 April 2016 Posted 5 April 2016 i think the fact we are traditionally a mediocre club but still experienced several amazing highs in my life time at least. some clubs seem to be stuck in a rut forever where they never achieve much and likely suffer misery if anything. we're never boring, be it off pitch scandals or on pitch achievements. i'll never win £50 million on the lottery, i'll never make love with rita ora and i wont ever be superman being a leicester fan though is my gift from god.
WesMorganGod Posted 6 April 2016 Posted 6 April 2016 Yes we are, but obviously every fan is gonna say their team is best to support.

nnfox Posted 6 April 2016 Author Posted 6 April 2016 Yes we are, but obviously every fan is gonna say their team is best to support. Not necessarily, proper fans of any club usually support their team because of family ties or where they live. Of course they support their club passionately but at the same time there are a lot of fans that are unhappy with some aspect of their club. My point is more to do with the fact that we score close to 10 out of 10 on all aspects of the club. I literally have nothing to complain about.
