Premier League Young Player of the season and no Fofana. Rashford, Saka and Miesler are though …..

Saw that - what a joke.

Sorry mate, normally on your wave-length.....

but you Dont Finish Top 4, Coming from 9th, reach FA.cup final, & win the CL,

against the so called best Team in Europe to boot..and playing good successfull, entertaining football,without earning it..

No matter how much One might hate a club....one still has to give due respect....

 

You see opposition fans always Think the guy on the street could do better,...but thats why they will always stay the guy on the street.

This forum, does go OTT on Opp teams, ex-players, before & After Departure & carry on the envy, month even years after..

We try & sell ourselves has the club with humble ideas ,thoughts & fans...

but we cant half be cynical & bitchy towards opposition success & achievements....

We might hate any Superleague-antics, or wide Financial discrepencies,but  those clubs still have squad and players who Play & present

some Great football with players individual memories & performances...

 

The crux of anything Super League or Financial abuse  both clubs are guilty unmoral partners, ...Chelsea proved in football there never will be favourites...

thats something for the Asian & European betting/favourite offering media, & naive fans to argue over.....!!

 

Because of historlnics, both clubs have Left a bad Taste & smell Trail behind them, which will be hard to forget....but They still have individual players,

that can Show, & Perform at a quality , class & intrigue , that shows why we follow "This onfield Game of football",

 

Though the Noise can be horrendous, with smoke & Mirrors being distracting, even off putting....

I still follow & Love the game of football where 22 blokes, rich or poor Kick a  Blob-thing around any odd or beautiful piece of ground called a pitch..

Over any long season...a diverse or only 2-3 group of blokes will deservidely be winners....Luck & fortune might be a small part,but mostly it will be  their

Skill, quality 

I don't believe we're not on the same wavelength, and I regret that my words cause you to think that. 

I'll present my case for the defence at some point. I just would not like you to feel that I'd allow my footballing prejudices to outweigh my objectivity about the game.

As a summation I have to applaud your post. Exceptionally eloquent - even for you :appl:.

We're big in Braggy Park, says Rob. Is this happening all over the county? 

 

My lad goes to school in a village in North Wales.  He is not the only kid in his class to have a Leicester shirt, two others do.  Having spoken to their parents (who are Everton and Wrexham fans) they are "glory hunters".  Delighted about this and also that my lad is a proper fan 😂

You're right. Growing up I remember in primary school I was 1 of 2 Leicester fans and was much the same in secondary school and college. Now in my sons class the overwhelming majority are Leicester fans. Great to see and perhaps we really do need that stadium expansion in a few years time!

Big in Nottingham too. I grew up there and it was always kids with Bryan Roy and Collymoore shirts - it isn't anymore. Being the current most successful club in the Midlands gives us an advantage over the London and Manchester clubs imo.

Difference is Chilwell didn't score! :crylaugh:

 

Listen i'm somewhere inbetween, we booed Chilwell, he gave it us back only to find out he didn't actually get a goal but Chilwell caused the 'hate' if it really must be called that, he acted like a dick and is still acting like a dick, he caused the scuffle at Stamford Bridge - Amartey had his part to play in 'disrespecting' Chelsea with his antics after the final but equally Chilwell disrespected us by acting like he did before the final, in the lead up to the final, in the final and the league game at Stamford Bridge.

 

I'm sure us booing and abusing him whilst he was still our player had nothing to do with it.  lol

Do you mean Leicester are big in Nottingham? 
 

Seen a few comments like that lately including this one under Rob Tanners tweet 

 

And saw another from a Forest fan recently saying something similar, interested to see how it plays out in future if we do significantly expand our fan base beyond Leicestershire.

Exactly. Growing up in the 2000s I was one of only two Leicester fans in my year of about 200 people in a school in Leicester. It was predominantly all Man Utd and Liverpool with a scattering of arsenal and Chelsea fans. The stadium expansion is crucial to cement the currents generations support for life. They’ll be tens of thousands of kids who would love to go to a game and it’s currently so inaccessible for them that the parents who won’t be bothered aren’t going to be buying memberships and stuff to make it happen. A stadium expansion will be big not just for now but for the next 50 years regardless of what level the club is playing at in that time.

Fawaz Day and the Brian Clough Trophy not enough to keep the kids interested?

That’s the one, don’t know how true it is but if so  great for us and for them potentially losing some of your support to a local team, rival or not, is a bit embarrassing.
