The big teams attract remote fans largely down to either a personal weakness/neediness or a fundamental misunderstanding of football. They support Liverpool in the same way they buy some clobber with a Hugo Boss label. It's a status symbol and a kind of deep-seated insecurity. Being a jock supporting Leicester is neither of those categories. Anyone who supports us is welcome. Coz it ain't for the glory, it ain't for status symbol,.it ain't for a cheap dopamine hit. Yeah, you might have been grabbed by a League Cup win but that isn't really going to sustain you forever or massively impress the cool kids. Winning the League was so unexpected that it wasn't until February that you would latch onto it. If you are still with us then fair play. We have a lot of fans who follow this club from far and wide and travel to get involved. It is a great effort.

I've been a Leicester fan since around 2000 and for most of my life, when asked who I support, the answer generally invokes a weird awkwardness as the person who asked me expected something different and is frantically trying to concoct a follow up conversation. However, since 2016, when asked this question, I know that after I answer, I'm going to have to convince them that I'm not a glory-hunter. Like "mate, give me SOME credit! You're not just accusing me of being a glory hunter. You're accusing me of being sh!t at it too!" 3

We have cuckold, beta fans who can't wait to put their STs on resale and hundreds of Asian ST holders whio can't wait to gobble up the spares for their Liverpool cousin in Oadby 😂😂 Clueless. I’m what you’d consider an “Asian” fan. Even though I don’t speak a word of my mother tongue and 3 generations of my family have lived in Leicester. Would never resell a ticket to an opposition fan. And I’m fairly sure that the majority of those selling their £20 ticket for £200 are not Asian either. Pointless making this a race thing when there’s literally no need to.

There are tens of thousands of asian Leicester lads, second, third generation who follow Liverpool and Man U. And, plenty of Asian City fans whose close family support man U and Liverpool. It's a fact. Whether you wanna admit it or not.

It's a fact. Whether you wanna admit it or not. Maybe. But there’s also a reason for that. Which is a conversation for another day. But I also wouldn’t be pinning the fact that the stadium will have a fair few “Scouse” fans in the home end solely because the city/fanbase has a few Asian members.

Youd have to be a tiny insecure person to even pretend to be upset by Liverpool fans in the crowd. Seriously??? Then you are part of the problem. Just wow. You would be happy with a plastic scouser next to you rubbing it in by relegating us and them winning the league???
The Year Of The Fox Posted 18 April Posted 18 April (edited) 7 hours ago, westernpark said: I think in general people should support their local team. Whether that’s Coalville, Kettering, Leicester City or Aberdeen. Notwithstanding this, my initial post was talking about those fans of the big 6 from Leicester. There are obviously more nuanced connections, such as family and so on. Or people might claim to support the club after being taken to the 1997 final. Interesting take Im not sure how many LCFC fans from NW Leics are STHs but I’d guess there’s a couple of thousand You only have to think back to that Boro game in 2013 in the snow played in front of 8k fans to appreciate most of LCFCs support comes from outside of the city area Edited 18 April by The Year Of The Fox
Raj Posted 18 April Posted 18 April Cant believe some of our lot think we have a chance and have been showing off on Facebook that they have put money on us to win🤣🤣 Really worry about our fanbase sometimes!! 2

MattFox Posted 18 April Posted 18 April (edited) Going to be an eye opener to some of the more “sheltered” in our fanbase how fans off certain clubs behave at games when they could potentially win something on Sunday The ones in the home end aren’t going to politely clap Edited 18 April by MattFox
