If you could change one thing about the 15/16 season what would it be?

[Nod.E]

Two of the three games I went to that season wouldn't have been back to back 0-0s...

Yes we were. You'd change that?

My decision just before the season started not to go into a bookies and put £1000 on City to win the title, when the odds against were 5000-1.

For those mentioning Pearson in charge, surely the Pearson/Ranieri 'handover' worked perfectly?

 

Pearson was the perfect person to build the foundations.

 

Ranieri was the perfect person to carry the momentum on and deliver the title.

 

Two legends of our club, couldn't have asked for a better dream team really.

[grobyfox1990]

Nothing. Best time of life ever. Talked about nothing with anyone other than football from January onwards. Basking in the glow of the weekend result up until Tuesday then full on excitement for the next game from Wednesday. I was working in the states a lot then and planned all my flights around games. Would defo not rather have won it against Everton, what a day of relaxed celebration that was, plus watching spurs implode was a treat. Even events at Arsenal away makes it even sweeter. So in short, change nothing

For me, it's got to be Wasilewski missing out on a medal.

A backup 'keeper gets a medal for, presumably, being an unused sub throughout the season; why not other regular unused subs? Can't say I'd ever thought about it before Wasilewski missed out.

Am I right in thinking that Inler made enough apps for a medal?

[Nalis]

It was just so stressful and obsessive. I was thinking of permutations in the middle of the night ffs.

 

Was going to say to experience it again but without that stressful / obsessive element but it would have been impossible considering the stature of our club at that time and in a weird sort of way those emotions added to the whole experience.

[Guest David Oldfields Gate]

To be fair I could of done without all the people I know who had nothing but contempt for football and football supporters suddenly jumping on the bandwagon and having the audacity to "explain" to me how and why the title was won.

@glenelgfox, rest his soul.

Not losing to Arsenal at the Emirates.

Welbeck’s header.

 

At the time it crushed me - though in retrospect it was a ‘no pain, no gain’ moment. 

Honestly this is still up there with Deeney and the Wolves collapse for me. Sickening moment. I know it turned out for the best but still find it a painful watch.

So glad it was not only me who felt like this

Nah I quite like the fact we lost, in hindsight obviously.

their walk around the pitch

dressinf room selfies. Perfection. That inspired us to go on and win its well documented.

 

I wouldn’t change a thing. Our city buzzed for the next 3 months at the very least. Leicester May 2016 was the place to be.

 

one thing I would change on a personal level is I flew out to menorca on May 2nd 2016. Watching the game in the hotel bar I really wish I was in Leicester. I had a great night boshing the whiskies laughing at the spurs fan next to me “ANLACKY ARRY” he said as he sulked.

but to be in Leicester that night is a huge regret

Yeah it did work out perfectly but imagine if Pearson had won league one, the championship, produced the greatest ever premier league escape and won the premier league with us. 

[RumbleFox]

Amartey to come in and score a last minute flying header into the top corner to secure the league on the last day of the season. After a Huth overhead kick in the first half. 

[Supergray22]

If I could change one other thing other than Kante not leaving that summer it would to have entered some space time continuum and lived out our lives in 15/16 on loop never aging and never tiring of that season.

Won it at old Trafford! I don’t think it’d get better than that! We were so close to it as well! 

In fairness I was at OT too in the home end with a Utd fan mate, and after about half hour when those around had worked out I was an away fan they were nothing but pleasant so I'd have loved to have won it there - at FT they were all saying they were desperate to win it.

Other than that maybe not going in a work corporate box for the Man City away game and therefore having to try and be relatively restrained during the game (didn't really work) - wish I'd have sat in the away end with my dad and sister albeit they missed the first goal due to getting in late with the horrendous traffic.

The players having the chance to carry the trophy round the ground after the Everton game.

[Arkie Bennett]

I wish we had booked our holiday to start a week later. I was flying to Cyprus when the Everton match was kicking off. Had a lovely time on the last day of the season, took the opportunity to piss off some Spurs fans in a bar and then watched the Chelsea match in glorious sunshine drinking Keo, eating strawberries and celebrating with other Leicester fans.

[Vacamion]

 

It would have been me banging in that volleyed scorcher against Liverpool, not Jamie Vardy.

That just reminded me, seeing far too much of the pitch seemingly invaded by some players third cousins best mates or whoever they were.

I get you and agree at the time

 

But if you look back we won 7 out of 9 after Arsenal conceding just 4 times

 

Spurs won only 5 games until the end of the season after the Arsenal weekend.

 

Any other season and it wouldn’t have been considered a title race

[Guest Electric Yetis]

I'm not a big better. In fact I probably haven't had a bet since last years Masters.

 

In the middle of one night around March/April, I was so convinced they'd catch us and was frankly a crumbling wreck that I shoved £400 of my savings on Spurs winning the League. It would never have consoled me but I justified it to myself that if I was to be heartbroken I could at least take the kids on an amazing holiday.

 

I could quite do with that money back.

 

Thankfully we smashed them by 11 points and we went on holiday to Filey.

[ftfagos]

I wish Fuchs & Kasper hadn’t soaked Ranieri with champagne. He wasn’t happy and it seemed somewhat undignified.
