'Top' 5 ex Leicester Players and Managers you've loved to hate

[marcymarc666]

With the imminent departure of Wesley  Fofana its brought up memories for me of people who have disrespected the club and walked away. Who are your top 5 most hated ex players and managers who you've enjoyed giving stick to on the terraces on their return. 

 

1) Fofana. He won't forget the next time he plays here again.

2) Mahrez. Ruined his legacy by camping out at airports

3) Mark Mcghee. Thought Wolves were a bigger club.

4) Peter Shilton. Cleared off to Stoke at the height of his powers.

5) Dennis Wise. Enough said.

[HybridFox]

Ben Chilwell - ultimate w****r. The VAR call couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke. Knee slided and everything bless 

[Jaspa]

Our fans will barely make a peep with Fofana, light boos and some jeering which he'll smile off. Unless it's a huge game where we're ripping him apart. He's a young kid after money and lifestyle, he has an offer of better money and lifestyle. The warning signs were there all along with how he brands himself, there is a broken heart cut into his hair at all times ffs

 

 

Sorry, you're an idiot if you think Mahrez has "ruined his legacy" here. We've done everything to emphasise his legacy by signing crap RM's since he left.

 

Joe Mattock. Legacy? Not really.

 

Maybe Robbie Savage? Went Birmingham & was proudly Derby, chatted a multitude of shit about us while we were in the daldrums, him playing as a low-Prem grafter, gets into media and as we build momentum under Vichai he changes his tune; loved Leicester all along apparently, waiving a foxy flag on the airwaves for the ride of 2015/16. Heard very off-putting things about his time here at Leicester too when I had family working as barstaff in the City.

 

Dickov hurt when he went to Blackburn and scored that pen against us, always a lovable scamp though and even came back for abit to add experience/mentality under Pearson.

 

DJ Campbell? Achieved a respectable amount in the game, Blackpool fans still love him. Was absolute crap here, always offside and saw us relegated. Again though, not really any legacy to speak of here to ruin.

[OntarioFox]

Well I was in the away end at Barnsley when Ben Marshall ruined the trajectory of his entire football career by sticking V's up at the fans. T*sser.

 

2-0 down, stuck on a losing streak, and the knob waltzes over to take a corner like it's a friendly. He'd already been coasting on his worldie against Chelsea for a while by that point, and clearly had an inflated opinion of himself because he was decent at long range shots. Wasn't happy with being told to get on with it by us.

 

Pearson saw what happened, and the bloke barely kicked a ball for us again. Save for a little while at Blackburn he was a busted flush and playing park football by the time he was 28.

Genuinely find it sad that a Leicester fan genuinely “loves to hate” Mahrez.

 

Only Vardy has given me more individual moments of joy than Mahrez did in all my years watching Leicester. Those all outweigh sitting at an airport and missing 2 games about 100 times over, find it sad that for some a handful of days outweighs countless joyous moments. Not only that, but genuinely revelling and “loving” and “enjoying” that hate just seems a bit sad and pathetic to me.

 

Every time I see some old highlights of Leicester with Mahrez doing his stuff I can’t help but smile and remember what an incredible player he was.

1. Dennis Wise

2. Peter Taylor

 

That’s it really. I wasn’t a fan of Holloway, however life moves on. 

 

I find it totally bizarre that people dislike Mahrez, Kante etc

Yeah, Wise literally did all he could to try and make the club go under and I don’t think should ever be forgiven.

 

At least everyone else, as far as I can tell, has tried to do their best for the club at least at some point.

[taupe]

Mention of that odious little cockney cvnt stops the conversation for me. He has all 5 places, nay the entire list to himself. He is so by far and away the vilest creature ever that it's a category all of its own. There's him and then there's everyone else. Nobody else gets even remotely close to the levels of hatred I have for him. Anyone else, I can joke about. Him, I'm deadly serious about. 

[CrazyKopCorner]

1) Fofana - No body used to do malevolence as well as us - I hope we still have it in us 

2) Dennis Wise - Tries to dress him up as a good cockney geezer but pure out and out scum - Gross misconduct of the highest order and then tried to take the whole club down with that other odious arsewipe Eric Hall 

3) Mark Grew - Took over from Mark Wallington and was atrocious - Came back with Ipswich gave us the finger and then conceded 2 goals for us to win 2 - 1 - sweet 

4) Mark Mcghee - He wanted to leave to manager one of the super powers in the English game. Man U, Liverpool ............ er Wolves - Heskey late winner at Molineux in 96 in a 3 - 2 win still  one of the sweetest 

5) Peter Taylor - I voted him villain of the season in The Fox for 10 years running - Dismantled O'Neil's work and the fantastic players who are still around the club today - Instead of building on the success and those players to produce a dynasty he dismantled and brought in shocking players and tactics that really made us a 3rd division side playing in the Premier League - embarrassingly bad we were

Fofana doing his best to be #1, or at least his agent is

 

Dennis Wise

 

Peter Taylor

 

Gary Megson - he left us after a decent start which then messed us up

 

Older fans will remember David Speedie

 

Martin Keown, is just a knob. From the same era you have John Curtis too for causing a broken dressing room

 

Wayne Brown also gets a mention 

[Mad Dog]

Chilwell is really up there for me. Really irks me. That knee slide for the offside goal was one of my all time fave Leicester moments.

 

Kane. Was so lazy and shit with us. I hate that he's gone on to do good things. I absolutely am on my knees for us to beat Spurs in the league cup final this season so Vardy can get the full set while Kane ends up trophyless.

When I say 'hate' I don't mean it in the literal sense of the word, I'm talking about Pantomime booing. People love to boo someone to get off their chest whatever worries they have in their lives, it's escapism. Yes Mahrez was for me the most talented player to ever have worn a (I won't say city shirt !) Leicester shirt but he gets booed every time he touches the ball here! How do you think that makes him feel as a person, like Leicester legend ? I just dont look back on his time here with the same fondness as I do a Vardy, Lineker, izzet ,Wortho. I don't think he's loved here like those types of players. I think to be a legend of a club and have a legacy you have to be popular not just now but in 15, 20 years time when people will want to talk to you in Tescos or cross the road to say thanks for the memories and like Fofana  I'm not sure that people feel that way about him because of the manner in which he left the club, people dont forget.I may be wrong its just my opinion.

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

On what planet do you lump our greatest ever winger in with Dennis Wise?!

But Speedie did a "reverse villain" by winning a dubious penalty to defeat us in the playoff final, then joining us, then scoring goals for us and actually being part of the season we finally made it back to the top league.

 

Whilst he was Villain #1 in the immediate aftermath of what felt like undeserved defeat at our first Wembley appearance in years and years, I would say that if there was any "hate", it lasted for little over a year and then turned to respect.

 I had the ultimate respect for Dickov for that celebration against us in the cup, rather than that not celebrating ex club bullsh#t,  whoever he played for he gave everything for his team, played like a Terrier and he scored plenty for us in the same way.

Yeah and now he's just an overweight bit-part player at Man city who has never reached the heights of play that he did for us. That gives me deep joy. He couldn't wait to get away and couldn't care less how he did it. Short memories some people.

I thought we were all pretty bloody happy that Megson left. Dark days.

What happened with John Curtis? Don't get me wrong, I remember him being awful for us but I didn't realise there was anything going on behind the scenes with him.

[fazzyfox]

Chilwell in the league game after the cup final going for Ricardo’s knee, the big ruck that followed (the one that put Cheatsea on a final final final last warning before points will be deducted) emphasised what our boys felt about it (and Cheatsea wanted to get to Amartey at some point). With him being someone who had seen Ricardo’s long recovery from injury at close hand it was a c***ish thing to do, literally target him.

How’s your international career going Ben! Oh, behind Chubster Shaw, Trippier and probably Bertrand now! At least you’ve scored in a Cup Final….oh hang on, you haven’t have you.

I'm the same.

 

Even with Peter Taylor my dislike for him has waned over the years as he is was more incompetent than a w anker.

[Nalis]

Also, probably an unpopular opinion but a football club is a place of work for players and managers.

 

They dont have the same emotional attachment to the club as we do so we shouldnt expect them to have a sense of loyalty to us.

 

Of course temperament is something they can control if engineering a move but thats a different discussion point.

I was there too and agree with your opinion on Marshall’s career here. But sadly alcohol played a big part in the trajectory it took for him after us.

[st albans fox]

 Riyad absolutely doesn’t deserve the abuse he gets 

 

others - don’t mistake incompetence as a reason to dislike someone 

 

Dennis wise is first on every list 

[FoxesWalk]

Whilst not the biggest fan of Fofana and Mahrez antics, I won’t care about Fofana in a few days, same as I didn’t with Mahrez. I remember Mahrez fondly for the obvious despite how he left. Fofana was part of one of the premier leagues worst defences and left behaving like a child, doubt I will look back on him at all. Must admit I did enjoy the fa cup final after Chilwell’s interview, but again, not bothered about him. 

 

The biggest losses during my ~25 years as a fan have been Mahrez and Kante and I still like both, for obvious reasons.
