Never ever seen or heard anything like it, I'm in ruins. Phenomenal.

We're you in a red jacket Ric?  Sure I saw you stumble down the stairs next to me after one of the goals.

On a bad note two people got arrested and will be most likely banned from the KP for doing something the clubs twitter page was showing off

“Someone set it off right next to us - and I thought, streuth that’s dangerous, I’d better pick it up so that it doesn’t injure anyone nearby. Then I realised that it might be dangerous to walk past people, so I held it hoping a steward or police officer would come and help me safely dispose of it. The idea that I would have taken it in and let it off is ludicrous - I volunteer to read the bible to orphan kittens,”?

And it’s beyond retarded that the club can tweet ‘the cause the effect’, celebrating the flare and go on to ban anyone- but then this is King Power we’re talking about.

What a way to celebrate a birthday. My eldest lads first away game. I've supported most things Leicester in my now 49 years and I've never been in an atmosphere like that. Sheer class. Up the Foxes

[SamA27]

Saying it now, we had Bocelli in 2016.

 

But on Saturday, post horn gallop, players come out and Jersey Budd in the centre circle, just a guitar, live performance of When You're Smiling!

Reports of a red faced gentleman at the J16 services singing "hey I've just met you and this is crazy, so call Steve Guppy".

Weirdly not sure how it's gonna compare at the weekend. Would be nice if the club let the post match songs dictate themselves. Fans will stay back. Then blasting out 3 Kungs and whatever songs they force down us. Although would like when you're smiling played when we're parading the trophy with Top

I’ve emailed in asking for WYS to be played at the end of the game instead of 3 kings … hopefully more people request it

It’s going to be so different. 
 

Saturday will be more of a celebration/party as we are receiving the trophy. 
 

Last night was the confirmation, which always gets celebrated more and for me rightly so. The elation and emotion of finally getting it over the line. 
 

Still Saturday will be an amazing day to celebrate at home, with the players and they can have their families there too, so special for them as well.
 

Personally I can’t wait, get to see the trophy lift with a very excited 5 year old and that’s what this season has been all about for me.

I’m surprised you can remember anything, absolutely garried in the concourse pre game  

[iancognito]

Been for a job interview this morning and I'm sure one of my answers was ChampionsAgain Olé Olé 🤣

 

Stuck in my head 🫨

[Raj]

Until the trophy lift  i think Saturday will be an anti climax compared to yesterday which was amazing.

Well done to everyone who made the effort, i dont drink but i feel p1ssed today!!!

 

[Brooksy]

Feel hungover this morning despite not touching a drop last night. My first away since Peterborough in 2013 and it was absolutely amazing. Did not want it to end.

I’ve woken up feeling like I had 10 pints last night despite being designated driver and not touching a drop 😂 Voice shot to pieces.

9 yo still in bed. “Medical appointment” for him this morning 👀

My daughter was "sick" this morning too 😂😂.  Still in bed.   I'm just hoping nobody from her school goes on YouTube as there are a number of vids clearly showing me and her jumping around the concourse like loons 😂😂

[UniFox21]

Hoping they've got decent shit planned for Saturday. Properly celebrate the day again.

 

Drop shirt prices to a tenner, fill the concourse with blue and white. The Vardy tifo etc

2014 and 2016 were both top atmospheres 

 

Although they did wheel out Sam Bailey

Champions Again Ole Ole was so loud on the TV I thought I was tuning into a game on the continent, a tricky sing for some of the purists though as its not original

Last night was absolutely brilliant.   It was a very rare situation that I can't remember us having in the last 50 years, ie win and we actually achieve something (win a trophy).  I'm excluding "win and we get to a final" type cup or playoff games.   I can't remember another away game where a win has definitely meant a title, a promotion or avoiding relegation ... and actually doing it and getting a win!
 
Even going back to 1980 when we took 10,000 to Orient, it wasn't quite in our hands as Sunderland had a game in hand and we needed them to drop a point for us to be certain of the title ... which they did half an hour after our game had finished.   Possibly away to Portsmouth in 1971, but I can't quite remember the exact details of that season.    Since then though, we've generally won titles/won promotion/avoided relegation either when we were at home, or when we weren't even playing.
 
Plus last night we had a great end.  One nice solid square chunk of steep rake seats.   A full 5700 away following at Preston's ground is about as good as it gets.   Most other clubs wouldn't give that many tickets for a league match.  Blackburn possibly, but their end is split into upper and lower tiers, so not as good.

 

What I'm getting at is ... last night was unique in the last 50 years, certainly for an away league match.  Don't expect the same on Saturday!    But it's great to be reminded that we've still got it in us.  I jumped around and sang so much, I actually felt a bit ill when I calmed down afterwards.   Definitely an age thing, but who cares?

 

It was a fantastic night ... even if I didn't get back till 03.00 thanks to lots of road closures.
