It not a bad idea, but l watch the video of the 25th anniversary, of us win the Worthington Cup, then you realize, how things have gone down hill, and you are looking backwards, instead of forwards

No.

 

Stuff like this is how Forest have gone 35 years without a trophy, went 23 years outside the Premier League and have had one good season in 30. The longer it goes on since success, the more pathetic that singing 'champions of England, you'll never sing that' to Charlton Athletic in a league fixture starts to look.

Thought it was you made us sing that. Totally different meaning

We might have reason to celebrate the ten-year anniversary of our title-winning-season in a year's time - provided we achieve promotion.

 

Other than that, not much to cheer about these days. Squad issues, ownership, sponsorship and (upper) management issues, ticket prices (not lowering them after relegation is a dick move, imho).

Could all have been different, if it hadn't been for a plethora of utterly poor decisions on and off the pitch.

Feels like your wife leaving  ten years to the day since you got married..

So you’re saying we should get the bunting out, let off fireworks, streamers and firing flares at police - good call

It is, but the broader point is that beating 'small clubs' about the head with how good we used to be just looks pathetic. Nobody is going to care that we've won more trophies than Oxford or Hull when we're competing at the same level as them. It makes our fall off all the more stark.

 

With the last of our title winning squad no longer here with Vardy’s departure, we should focus on the next era and making it a successful one.

I really don't get this urge people have to police other fans taking some pleasure from something unbelievably positive that this football club gave them. Football's hugely important to lots of us, and it's bloody miserable right now.

Celebrating and marking the greatest season the club has ever given us is not endorsing anything about the current ownership or the way the club is run currently. If anything it's making the contrast even more visible. It isn't, in any way, going to detrimentally impact us - the huge swathes of incompetent employees led by completely incompetent ownership is what's going to do that. Do we really have to be completely miserable about Leicester City at all times because of that? Is it actually going to make any difference?

How many Leicester fans does it take to change a lightbulb? 
 

None.

 

We all sit around in the dark talking about how good the old one used to be. 

'We won the league once' is the new 'we used to be in League One, you know.'

It’s a joke I’ve used for Forest fans for years.

 

But the jokes on us now, and rightly so 

We really should look at them as a cautionary tale. Nobody cared that the so-called World Famous City Ground once hosted the European champions twenty odd years later when Stockport and Cheltenham could go there fancying a result in the third tier. We're now at the stage where their past success is a pub quiz question, but in very real danger of ours being the same.

Something should happen. Winning the only top flight title in the club's history should be celebrated for a 10 year anniversary. Not everything has to be so gloomy. Celebrating something in history doesn't mean we can't also look forward, you only have to see people post memories this past week of their trips to Wembley for the play off finals.

 

However, game by game, somethings need to change. The montage for example, and everyone stood clapping it, needs to be changed. Have a montage yes, other clubs do, but don't solely focus on one season. Keep the other montage that runs through the clubs history and add some parts to that.

I don't think there is any need for further celebration. We did enough at the time.

 

It was a once in a lifetime achievement and probably never to be repeated.

You won’t be celebrating and that’s your prerogative. Don’t put down others who also exercise their prerogative by celebrating that wonderful time for this club and city. There are far too many miserable gits on this forum who treat other fans with contempt if they show any pride in the team. Doesn’t mean we don’t  acknowledge what a mess  we’re in right now. You can actually still celebrate those brilliant times whilst still being infuriated by the current state of affairs. Football is an emotional experience and you can’t just switch that off because someone else thinks you should forget that emotional time.
