Steve Corica away to Sunderland. Remember listening on Radio Leicester and had no idea who he was. Didn't realise we'd signed him the day before.

He only scored 2 goals and that was one of them, excellent stuff  

 

Thanks for that, I’m glad I now know!

First competitive goal - Gary Lineker, the first of 2 for him in a 2-3 loss to Newcastle on August 25th 1985, 11 days after I was born.

The difference in my two sons is quite alarming when I looked at this my 6 year old has a 6-0 win with nugent scoring first, while my 2 year old had to wait a whole month after his birth (4 league games) before Vardy scored his first goal.

However he did have a goal in the Fa Cup from Andy King to celebrate against the sheep! In between.

[smudger63]

First goal i seen us score was scored by Frank Worthington against Birmingham 1974. Finished 1-1.

It was a night game, Trevor Francis scored for them. Remember it like it was yesterday, rather alarmingly it was 45 years ago!!

[Gamble92]

Simon Grayson. Not bad

[ultrafox]

Mike Stringfellow vs Leyton Orient (A)  3rd April 1963 (the 'Ice Kings' team). We were 2nd in the 1st Division. 5 days later we were top of the league!!  We ended the season 4th with our last 4 games of the season all defeats.

The first Leicester goal I saw was David Tomlin vs Stoke City(H)  24th March 1973.

yes we were pretty shit that year. Manager Bryan Hamilton? Smith signed for Arsenal and came back to us on loan to help us beat the drop (but we didn't).

 

Also, our average home league attendance was 11,697! Fewer than 7,500 people were at Filbert Street for the 4-1 win against QPR in March!

 

 

 

 

 

Puts all our woes this season into perspective really

Tom Sweenie in a 3-2 loss at Leeds 12th Sept 1964.

[Oxfordfox83]

Robbie Jones scored mine. On debut, on the way to a magic total of 3 across his 6 seasons with us. 

 

Never heard of him-any memories?

[Rain King]

Just checked for my two sons, both pretty memorable games.

 

Oldest - Sol Bamba debut goal in the 2-2 FA Cup draw against Manchester City

 

Youngest - Ritchie de Let's very good opener when we smashed Derby 4-1 in 2014 .

ha ha. A guy I work with was born on 30 July 1966. His dad had to miss the World Cup Final to take his mum to the hospital. I don't think his dad ever fully forgave him..
