Was in Weymouth over the weekend and our holiday park was full of city shirts. Blue army was in full force.

I stayed in Poole but visited Christchurch for the day, in the car park by the quay about three cars away was a car with a ‘Dont follow me, follow Leicester City’ on the back.

Secured a cheap package holiday to Eyres Monsell.

Just a few City shirts in the bustling thoroughfares.

Grey 2018/19 spotted very recently at hilarious Michael Jackson tribute act in son bou Menorca. Was this you?

The year after we won the league I was in Hamburg and bumped into a German bloke wearing a city shirt.

 

Just said he loved the story of us winning the league.

Was at Alton Towers on Thursday and saw four or five on show. There was a South Charnwood High School trip there on the day we were there which probably explains some of them.

In minehead Butlins, place is heaving with Leicester shirts, makes me laugh how we give each other a polite nod as we walk past each other. Kids went to play football yesterday, the red coat split all the kids into two teams. One completely Leicester the other other argued whether they were going to be Leicester or luton.

I have wondered before what is the geographical cut-off point for acknowledging fellow LCFC fans.

As an example, if you were to see someone in the 19/20 first team shirt in the small Burkino Faso village of Umbojumbo (population 17 and one cow), then you would immediately and with pleasure greet said long-distance supporter in the obscure settlement.

 

Do the same by the Clock Tower in Leicester and one would be classified (quite correctly)  as utterly barmy.

 

At one point, at what distance from Leicester (shire) does indifference morph into acceptable pleasurable acknowledgment?

We have a bit of an unfair advantage this first week of school holidays. There's only us off. And posh kids from private schools. And the jocks.

 

Next week onwards, we have some competition.

True, I’ve wondered this myself. Always a bit wary of appearing barmy

I was in Bali for the last month and saw a few shirts. One highlight the hotel porter was a huge fan told me the day we won the league he got sacked from his job behind the bar for spraying champagne! The day we checked out he came to get our bags in his new pink (DH Gate Special I think) shirt under his work uniform!

 

I didn't realise have being the premier league is out there and unlike us they love an early kick off!

Yep loads of kids in city shirts around Ilfracombe and Woolacombe. Like already stated cus our kids start their hols first feels like half of Leicester is here.

I've been wearing a few of mine over the last few days in gran canaria, seen one or two others too. Lots of Algerians telling me Mahrez is their brother and they love Leicester City. Lots of Spanish recognising the shirts.

I'd say outside the county at tourist attractions, and outside the East Midlands anywhere you see them.

When seeing people in Birmingham, it never fails to make me smile. There’s a fella what lives  near me on has City stuff on. Probably means more because we are better than Villa

A fair summary, but I have a caravan in skeg and with it being first week of school holidays in a Leicester hot-spot  i found I didnt bother, or get any nods back. 

 

The only acknowledge was the "dj" outside the villager in Ingoldmells who commented on my dashing pink shirt over the tannoy. He commented that on the back would be champions followed by relegated 2020.

 

I settled for giving him the middle finger but have silently vowed to smear him with my own shit next year "if" we miraculously avoid relegation. 

 

****.

Good to see kids wearing Leicester shirts and not manure

[Finley Parsons]

Was in Nerja a few years ago wearing my Leicester top while searching for a restaurant for the night and all of a sudden a big Italian restaurant owner comes out with his Leicester top to show some of his customers and had to go over and get a photo. I'm sure you can guess where we ate that night!

[mazarron fox]

I live in a very Spanish seaside resort In Murcia seen two city shirts on locals ( prob Algerian) and asked the lucky lucky man for a city shirt he said he hadn’t got one but his mate had ?

[LinekersLugs]
