Why do Leicester hate Chelsea?

[Lineker's Left Foot]

In The Sun today, the middle spread had both info. about Man.Utd and Chelsea. On the one-side it asked which fans of particular clubs would support Man.Utd and our name was mentioned. Apart from the obvious regarding Chelsea's ability to win and that '96 FA Cup Q-F dive, why else would Leicester 'famously' hate Chelsea??

I know there is history there somewhere because Chelsea have a song that involves Leicester that they sing regularly but don't ask me to quote what that is or why there is history. I'm sure someone on here will enlighten you.

Sounds like the typical silly "make it up as you go along" garbage we all come to expect from the Sun.

This is one of those recurring threads.

Basically comes down to a fair bit of fisticuffs "back in the day". Couple of hard firms liked to kick lumps of shit out of each other.

Someone else will give you the details or refer back to an old thread (if they're still available).

I think its because when Chelsea tried to sign Ronaldinho, Lineker told him Barcelona were a better bet

In the 70's Leicester's 'Baby Squad' kicked the absolute sh!t out of the chelsea fans in their own backyard. They also did this to Leeds fans and many other clubs.

Your right - if he looks through the LCFC forum he might find it, although if might be too old by now.
