Just reminded myself of the abominable "Champions of England, more recent than you" that we sang to Man United. Only we could pull off the absolute best sporting story of all time and sing utter drivel like that. Why can't we just have one good chant?

BenTheFox Posted 4 June 2019 Posted 4 June 2019 The Elephant statues outside the club shop a few years ago were a bit bizarre.
CosbehFox Posted 4 June 2019 Posted 4 June 2019 The over-protection of the clubs hierachy. Understand people think that's me being over-critical but strongly feel there are parts of the club which score low when it comes to 'customer care'.

Corky Posted 4 June 2019 Posted 4 June 2019 5 hours ago, Raw Dykes said: It's still true, though, if it's aimed at a club like Huddersfield, Wolves or even Everton. I doubt it's been directed at Liverpool or Man Utd., has it? The fans you're saying that to aren't going to be singing about a league title they won before any of them were born, are they? And it's highly unlikely they'll see the day their team wins it again. Well, I did hear it directed at Liverpool in a game (thankfully only a few people in the Kop sang it and probably didn't get a massive airing on here) but even still, those other clubs have won it more than us. It is a shit song anyway and I think only acceptable towards Coventry given the rivalry and them knocking us for not winning the FA Cup. Most of our songs should be about our team and club anyway.
mancunianfox Posted 4 June 2019 Posted 4 June 2019 When our own supporters put us down as a middle of the road club. Since I started following us in 1992 our two league cups and one league title mean that only Man City, Liverpool, Man United, Arsenal and Chelsea have been more successful than us in a 27 year span. All clubs we couldn't possibly compete with under the circumstances. Plus when you chuck in all of the relegations, playoff appearances, the enjoyable league one and championship titles we really have been an exciting team to follow. How much more excitement can you want?

As for the Gibraltar flag with the word 'BREXIT' on it - Gibraltar voted 96% Remain in 2016. I'm all for keeping politics well out of LCFC. It doesn't suit us. Rangers, no. But were heavily followed at England games, probably the most followed club side actually.
Fox92 Posted 4 June 2019 Posted 4 June 2019 2 hours ago, Bluetintedspecs said: The fans that think they are superior/ ultra types, critical of support/ songs pretty much everything about us. I personally wish they'd p*ss off and support another club that aren't embarassing and sing and dance, to only acceptable songs, to their hearts content with the fan type of their choice that is allowed to follow that team. I'm far from an "ultra" or think I'm "superior" but our support is shit. I can't knock the numbers we take everybody but it's just silence.
Stadt Posted 4 June 2019 Posted 4 June 2019 The lack of football fans working at the club let alone Leicester fans. There’s minimal understanding of fan culture and local culture.

Long gone are the days of the time/inclination to devote to fan & local culture.

Rangers are a lot of English fans 'second team' , I'd say it's certainly no weirder than having a Bochum tifo in our kop.

I get that, but it seems to me like a lot of ours are more desperate than most to claim some kind of special connection when there blatantly isn't one.

You sure? maybe you should petition the club to see if you can get these silent oldies banned, after all they've dedicated many years, countless hours and £1000s following our club....damn them!

He didn't say anything about 'oldies'. I don't even see them as really being the problem as far as our away support is concerned. I see plenty of 'lads' turning up to away games in their best Stone Island more worried about trying to act hard instead of actually trying to show some support.

I didn't mention anything about age. I've seen older people singing and younger people not on occasions. I've also seen older people that you refer to on their mobile phones for most of the game.

Oooooooooo ' silent fan hater friend' I stand corrected, how about looking at it from a different perspective, not everyone wants to sing and dance and last time I checked fans have a choice in which way they support the club, no? If you have an issue with the 'lads' in Stone Island trying to act hard, maybe have a word express your concerns and present them with your preferred song sheet?

It's a free world, how people choose to show their support is theirs surely?
