Babylon Posted 11 December 2006 Posted 11 December 2006 Can't really disagree much with that, i'll have a think though.
Joe. Posted 11 December 2006 Posted 11 December 2006 Since my memory is limited I would have to say the season in which we won the Worthington Cup in 2000. We won't win anything like that again for a very long time...
Tommeh Posted 11 December 2006 Posted 11 December 2006 I can remeber going to some of the games above like Arsenal at Filbo and the 1-0 at old trafford but I was very young. So they don't really stick in my head. probably 2000 wortho cup and league was the best I can remember. I remeber Fulham, Villa and finally Tranmere really well, plus an away 1-1 at Chelsea and the 5-2 V sunderland aka the collymore game! Also 3-1 V villa I think it was. These are very distant memories for me shame really cos these were the best times
Mikey Posted 11 December 2006 Posted 11 December 2006 Mine is the 4-0 win over Leeds not long back. Seeing as im not very old
Fez of Mahrez Posted 11 December 2006 Author Posted 11 December 2006 Mine is the 4-0 win over Leeds not long back. Seeing as im not very old So 2003/4?
lildave3 Posted 11 December 2006 Posted 11 December 2006 I suppose the promotion season under MA was good, and all the years we got to wembley (except 99) Hard to pick a favourite though.
Ultra Posted 11 December 2006 Posted 11 December 2006 1996-97. So many classic games, and we not only stayed up against the odds, but won a trophy to boot! Martin O'Neill signed an incredible number of journeymen, and turned them into world-beaters. I bet even they can't work out how he did it. Claridge, Marshall, Elliott, Guppy, Prior... all were magnificent that year. And Muzzy and Lennon became a midfield duo to be feared by all. Truly a wonderful year. Will we EVER see its like again?

Yup, in 2 years time after Pardew has took us up
Fez of Mahrez Posted 11 December 2006 Author Posted 11 December 2006 Yup, in 2 years time after Pardew has took us up We might but Ultra won't, he'll be too busy organising Leicester United II's training sessions on Vicky Park.
Maybes Posted 11 December 2006 Posted 11 December 2006 98/99 season for me. I remember when we played leeds in the league cup and were loosing 1-0 until the 89th minute when parker scored a peno then in stoppage time muzzy netted a wonder goal....or was that the following season??

Wasn't that 97? I remember that though, amazing.
Maybes Posted 11 December 2006 Posted 11 December 2006 Wasn't that 97? I remember that though, amazing. Yeah may well have been, my memory is awful. I was probably about 11 or 12 and I think my dad missed the leeds goal coz he arrived 15minutes late. I think Harry Kewell scored it.
Ultra Posted 11 December 2006 Posted 11 December 2006 We might but Ultra won't, he'll be too busy organising Leicester United II's training sessions on Vicky Park. Is that meant to be witty? By the way, in the above season I went to FIFTY City matches. Not bad for someone who isn't a real fan....
ilam Posted 11 December 2006 Posted 11 December 2006 "Favourite season" .........it just has to be Spring..........grabs coat and leaves. Ian

Mine too. It was absolute madness. My first year at uni - I gloated shamelessly.
Daggers Posted 12 December 2006 Posted 12 December 2006 1979-80 ~ Jock Wallace could do no wrong in my eyes after than.

mancunianfox Posted 12 December 2006 Posted 12 December 2006 Got to go with Fezz's post as well. So many classic games in that season!
Bob666 Posted 12 December 2006 Posted 12 December 2006 1979-80 ~ Jock Wallace could do no wrong in my eyes after than. Most optimistic season as Jock predicted that we'd win the league, FA cup & League cup..........slightly misguided as we got relegated but I think he saw the funny side when he stated that if you turn the league table upside down we were top! Those were the days when the Foxes broke free up the wing & you actually thought we had a good chance of scoring...... However, the MON seasons (premiership) were the best (& maybe in the club's history....let's hope not)
Master Fox Posted 12 December 2006 Posted 12 December 2006 2006 - 2007 What fantastic season it's been so far! The quality of football has been out of this world!
Wils Posted 12 December 2006 Posted 12 December 2006 2006 - 2007 What fantastic season it's been so far! The quality of football has been out of this world! And were not finished yet.
