RumbleFox Posted 17 August 2017 Share Posted 17 August 2017 I think this deserves its own thread..... https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/aug/17/liam-rosenior-column-brighton-leicester-league-title-inspiration We spend too much time being nobwangers on here that we sometimes forget we are Leicester City and we did the impossible. The greatest sporting story in history is ours forever. I know, I know we can't rest on our laurels and live off this but we are allowed to fvcking enjoy it and I love the fact other players, fans and non fans were all caught up in it. I still cannae quite believe we did it to be honest. This shouldn't happen to teams like us. I might cry. X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Boos Up Posted 17 August 2017 Share Posted 17 August 2017 I was given dignity and respect and invited to the big boys dinner table and I liked it. Although I knew they were secretly slagging me off behind their fake smiles I couldn't figure out if I took someone's chair or they pulled up a chair to squeeze me in knowing I'd be gone soon. I also realise I don't belong there and I don't want to be like them. As a legacy I'd like to be on the second table knowing the big boys are looking over their shoulders and putting them off their food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tielemans63 Posted 17 August 2017 Share Posted 17 August 2017 I gave 0.25 of a rep point for the sentiment and 0.75 for the use of the term 'nobwanger'. Would have given a rep for each if I could have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RumbleFox Posted 17 August 2017 Author Share Posted 17 August 2017 You know, and I will probably be criticised by most for saying this. I think given the choice between the following: 1 - becoming one of the "big boys" and consistently winning/challenging for the PL and Champions League. or 2 - being yo yo, sometimes sh1t, always interesting, mostly sh1t, sometimes average but mostly really, really sh1t Leicester but who, in 50 years time, after decades of being sh1t won the league again in another miracle season. I think I would rather the latter. If there's always biscuits in the barrel, where's the fun in biscuits? X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitchandro Posted 17 August 2017 Share Posted 17 August 2017 In some ways I wish more people had his attitude. I wish our players were more inspired by their own success instead of feeling like it was a weight on their shoulders last season. I wish Kante had thought that 'if I could do that with them, why should I need to leave?' I wish other clubs would go 'why settle for Pulis and Allardyce football and tell the fans that should be good enough for them?'. But other times, I wish we didn't inspire these little clubs into thinking they're comparable to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most football fans accept that. But I do mind having low crowds, a defeatest atmosphere and nobody knowing who the fvck we are. And that comes with being shit, sadly. Media darlings like Newcastle, Forest and Villa are still in the limelight somewhat even when they're shit. I would hope we'd get the same courtesy now we've given people a reason to bang on about us. I'm not keen on us being seen as a nothing club who had one great year whilst other clubs might be considered some sort of sleeping giant even though they have a smaller fanbase and only had success in an era where it was far easier to do so....so ideally I'd like us to make a fist of competing higher up the league for a bit longer. And I do hate underachievement and no ambition. It was one thing when we were crap because we had no money. If we were relegated now it would be unacceptable.

It would only make me 101 so guessing I won't. But in transfer news Logan will have made a return and still be sat on the bench.
