lenny06 Posted 9 October 2005 Posted 9 October 2005 5-0 win against Cambridge in the play offs at Filbert Street. Tommy Wright (2) Steve Thompson, Kevin Russell and Ian Ormondroyd getting the goals.
Northants Fox Posted 9 October 2005 Posted 9 October 2005 My fave game - March 1982 vs Shrewsbury Town, FA Cup quarter final Leicester were 1-0 up against the Shrews when Chic Bates collided with Mark Wallington. Wallington's leg was heavily bandaged up, and he lost alot of mobility and after conceding 2 goals, Wally was subbed. He hadn't missed a minutes play for years and as he limped off, we put Alan Young (our six foot striker) in goal. During the second half, Young was barged whilst in mid-air and fell awkwardly. Off he went (we only had 1 sub in those days I think!) and Steve Lynex (shortest player on the park) went between the sticks. About 20 mins later, Young came back on, and we finished the game 5-2 winners, with Lynex crossing the ball for Jim Melrose to nod in the winner just after being swapped in goal. A REAL rollercoaster of a game, a real epic battle. And I was there! I've read a lot about that game...sounded like an absolutely unreal experience!! I envy you!! I remember that game i was in the kop great game, i also think the come back against Leeds at Filbert Street also ranks as a great game 3-1 down and won 4-3 Paul Ramsey scoring the winner i think, memory not that good.
shadowman Posted 10 October 2005 Posted 10 October 2005 the best game i have ever seen Leicester play in my self is when we beat Charlton 2-1 i have not been to many matchs in my life but when i went to that one there was just something about Leicester they did nothing wrong and i think that will be my favorite match of all time for the rest of my life
lcfcsoul66 Posted 11 October 2005 Posted 11 October 2005 I'd have to say Derby away when we killed them 4-0. Game Over after 15ish minutes. My Dad's favorite has to be an error LCFC beating Man City 8-4 at Filbo in the 60's. I don't think anybody will ever see the like again. (Hopefully by saying that it may happen at the weekend.)
LCFC-IAN Posted 11 October 2005 Posted 11 October 2005 The Fav matches I have been to are: Beating Boro at Hillsborough 3-3 V Arsenal
Scow Posted 11 October 2005 Posted 11 October 2005 Leicester 5-2 Sunderland Just when we thought things were beginning to click in to place... Flowers Sinclair / Elliott / TaggartLennonImpey / Izzet / Savage / GuppyHeskey / Collymore
Gené and Tonic Posted 11 October 2005 Posted 11 October 2005 Flowers Sinclair / Elliott / Taggart Lennon Impey / Izzet / Savage / Guppy Heskey / Collymore What I'd give for a team like that now.
gurkbasurken Posted 12 October 2005 Posted 12 October 2005 As I live in Sweden I've only seen Leicester once in my life as well... But it was sure long time ago. 1984 against my local team Boo FF, a swedish fourth division team in a suburb to Stockholm. I was only eight years old, but I remember that John O'Neil played (maybe David Pleat as well, hmm?), and I think I got a couple of autographs of the players. SInce then I've been into Leicester, from time to time not so into it, but lately more and more. I really want to go there soon to watch a REAL game on Walkers Stadium. /g
Nationwider Posted 12 October 2005 Posted 12 October 2005 Leicester 5-2 Sunderland Just when we thought things were beginning to click in to place... Flowers Sinclair / Elliott / TaggartLennonImpey / Izzet / Savage / GuppyHeskey / Collymore That was it. THE moment when it was as good as it was ever gonna get. Probably the only time we've scored 5 goals in a league game since Brian Little - 5 goals once in 10 years!!!!! I stand to be corrected. My list would also include: City 3 Swindon 2 - three in the last ten mins to win. City 5 Cambridge 0 - fantastic atmosphere, Filbo at its best. City 1 Newcastle 3 - our Prem debut. City 2 Palace 1 - obvious City 2 Derby 1 - ditto City 2 Norwich 0 - my first City game

I'd love to se it in case it exists... /g
