Plans instead of football

[Trav Le Bleu]

Instead of football, I'm going to follow LCFC.

[C.J]

Well today, I went on a day trip to Brooklands museum (I can recommend the Concorde experience).  Anyway, I do feel quite smug I didn't waste my petrol and 6 hours of my life watching us plumb new lows. Anyone else do anything interesting?

[Livid]

I’m a Season Ticket Holder and do a lot of other thing’s aside from football.

 

For the last few years I don’t actually care anymore if an event clashes with a game. I won’t even check I’ll just go ahead and get the tickets. 

There’s more to life than football and Leicester City.

We actually had a nice day out yesterday. Took the bus in, nice lunch and real ale in the Salmon(Fireside), iffy pint in Wyggestones(own bitter) and nice late afternoon drinks in the Castle(Landlord) and The Globe(Old Original) with good food. The only thing that spoiled the day was the football, as usual.

Hosted a playdate for my 6 year old daughter's best friend and their family.

 

Gives me no pleasure to say, but it was much better than going to the game...!

 

Fair play to those who did go down, hopefully brighter times ahead. Keep thinking it can't get worse, then it does 

[Katy]

Don’t miss going to the ground one bit. Happy to piss about in the match thread and moan about streams playing up instead but, overall, I’m enjoying not having to do a 60 odd mile round trip to watch this shite every other week.

Daughter got bored so started watching Peppa Pig on my phone, I ended up watching that with her.

Same here.

Missing the oxford game as I'm taking my daughter to see a concert in Manchester so decided we as a family will stay over.

Usually the Mrs would end up taking the family as id refuse to.kiss a game.

Now it comes secondary

I don’t watch us now in any capacity. I’m just a casual fan who checks the scores each game, chuckles, and gets on with whatever I was doing beforehand

Same. I haven’t watched a second of us since last season. The club nor the people employed by it don’t deserve my attention.

[foxfanazer]

To avoid football I go and watch Leicester 

[Tielemans63]

I stopped watching around halfway through last season. I think I'm done with this one already. We're absolutely horrible to watch.

I can't face watching any of last year's clowns trying to play Martin's sideways football, if they were playing in my back garden I'd close the curtains.

 

Happy new season

They wouldn't get a game in my back garden 😂

[JonnyBoy]

Enjoyed a lovely weekend in the Lake District whilst intermittently checking bbc football and laughing whilst sipping a pint of wainright gold 

[Sly]

I have notifications turned on for FutMob, so it pings through lineups, scores, Skipp getting sent off etc! 

[tinpot_fox]

Festival of funk or whatever it was called on Vikki Park and saw an old school friend later.

[Officer Doofy]

I've got zero interest in watching us under this ownership or manager. 

 

Not even watched a lowlight from either game. 

 

Played cricket. Been away for the weekend. 

[DennisNedry]

Been away this weekend in Whitby and Scarborough with the family.

 

Still managed to let the football put me in a bad mood. Checking the scores on the beach (stopped after going 2-0 down). Then spent an hour or so in the evening absorbing myself in the post match woe on here. 

 

[LC1884FC]

The people gloating in this thread and the people that will be moaning that they can't get tickets after the club is sold will be a perfect circle.

[SK3Blue]

Haven’t been to the stadium since Vardys final game v Ipswich, interest has slowly faded away from streams last season to just checking the full time score. Did also follow the women’s team but again, lost interest.
 

The game in general has changed so much that I don’t really care for it anymore, the farce with Trump in the World Cup, Infantino, even a few years back when the big boys tried to form the super league, it has all contributed to my lack of interest. 

 

I’ll always be a Leicester fan and want them to do well, but I’d rather do European city breaks these days with some of the money I save by not going to games. 

[Jattdogg]

Living the life in Old Montreal since yesterday. Love it here, always is a special place in my heart over the years. Football what? Football who? Lol

[skinnydipper]

I've gone non league and loving it. Watching a team with fight, team spirit, ambition and a connection with its fans does take some getting used to though 

[Salieri]

I’ve followed Leicester for 45 years and have never been able to bring myself to not follow a game, no matter how bad things have got and yes, this is the worst I can ever remember it being.

 

I’m not knocking the people on this thread who have been able to switch off and do other things. I genuinely wish I could do that too as there’s no doubt that Leicester affect my moods and not just during and immediately after the game. The malaise hangs over me until the next match, by then I’ve conned myself into thinking that this will be the start of the turnaround 🙄
 

 

[Manley Farrington-Brown]

Fair play to anyone who has found that football isn't the be all and end all, and there is a whole life to be lived that doesn't have to revolve around LCFC. Good for you - there are indeed more important things than football.

 

But all those people who are boasting about how they now chuckle merrily at Leicester's bad results - you're just being twats.

It's not worth wasting those emotions & energy on something you can't control. I was going to say you'll learn that as you get older, but looking at how long you've been following them ...... probably not 😄
