New Fanstore opening at Highcross

[Leicesterpool]

Not bought many items from the foxes this season, pricing too damning. Bought this top from Turkey for £10... yep a copy but rather that than pay £60 or whatever it is now.

Completely forget that's even there. I wonder how many people realise it's there still?

I’ve been getting kit from there for 10 years for my kids.

Didn't take long.

And villainy? No droids allowed, too I assume?

I don’t follow. If it’s in any way a Star Wars reference, you’re talking to the wrong guy 😂😂

On another note, the store looks really nice. Not much variety compared to the big one; but my lad had a great experience with Hamza who was very pleasant. No idea who the woman was though, feel kinda bad for the LCFCW players at events like this. It’s a bit like when Rebecca was sat next to Vardy at the book signing 😂

Well one of them was Ruby Mace who has just been called up to the England squad, so assuming she gets her debut next week our only current England international at the club !

I went there today.  It’s nice - got all the basic kit, gifts etc.  And for anyone with young kids they’re giving away free stickers!  Means nothing to me now, but a few years ago my kids would have been over the moon with the stickers!!

I remember the Tigers opened a club shop in the highcross a few years ago... only lasted 3 months.

That’s because it was only meant to last a few months

I used to love queuing for signatures at the old LCFC shop in town, was it on Haymarket? It's been a while since I've lived in Leicester, forgot the street names. I'm sure my dad dropped me off in the queue and went into a nearby pub

But egg chasing is rubbish. If it's got a decent stock of those king power leather jackets they'll be queues round the block

Churchgate was the old one. 
Hinckley one was in the shopping arcade I think.

I think it was here (the blue one). Hasn't been much used for much since it closed.

 

It closed around the time of the stadium move, and there was a small section inside Dominoes for a time where you could even buy match tickets from a pre-printed selection they kept in a binder.

People keep saying that yet I visit all the time and it's... fine?

 

Less that holds my interests than when I was a kid or teenager, but that's just the modern corporate world in general.

"Why is the city centre dead and everyone goes to Fosse Park these days???? "

 

Well, notwithstanding the general shift in consumerism, the way people weirdly but gleefully shit on the city centre online probably put so many people off going. Well done for being part of the problem.
