1st day of the 86 season , 1-1 draw with luton town . alan smith got our goal

early 70's I think - 1 dark miserable wet midweek evening v Blackpool at Filbo, where the conditions were so horrendous the match almost got called off. Ball continuously got stuck in the mud and Rodney Fern thinking he had scored only for the ball to stick on the line. Anyone else remember that one???

1-1 draw v Tranmere at Filbo 93/94.1-1 draw v Tranmere at Filbo 93/94.

First senior game was against Chesterfield in the Worthington Cup, I think that was the year we lost to Spurs in the final but I might be wrong. I was sat right on the top row of the Carling Stand with my uncle and cousin. We won 3-0, I can remember Gerry scoring with a header from a corner, I think Heskey scored aswell. :D

I can also remember all the Chesterfield fans singing "Tony Cottee's full of shit" - not sure why they hated him though. :unsure:

Date: Tuesday 6th April 1999

Venue: Filbert Street

Leicester City - 2 (Savage 63') (Cottee 71')

Aston Villa - 2 (Hendrie 2') (Joachim 49')

Great game... I didn't really know what the hell was going on as at the time I really wasn't that into football. However since then I have NEVER looked back! From two down to come back... although I couldn't see much, it was a hell of an atmosphere in the kop!

Same as the first game of the 98/99 season at Old Trafford. Heskey and Cottee put us 2-0 up with Cottee's being on the 76th minute just for Man Utd to peg it back to 2-2 by the final whistle! Beckham scoring in the LAST seconds... :cry:

Was a good season though... finished 10th in the league under Martin (Leicester Legend) O'Neill!

Mid 70s.

Villa at home.

In the East Stand with my Dad.

There was a pitch invasion and fighting inside and outside the ground.

Can't remember the result.

My first game was the FA Cup Third Round match at Filbert Street against Crystal Palace in 1992 (I think). Brian Little's first season. Gary Mills floated a lovely free kick in the area in the last minute and Richard Smith lashed it in to give us 1-0 win!

I cant remember my first game but what I can remember clearly was my transformation from glory hunter to real football fan lol. I went from being a Liverpool fan as a kid being brought up in London and then Cambridgshire and then moved to Leicester aged 14, went to a game aged 16 and got so hooked after my first game that despite moving out of Leicester aged 18 that the club is set firmly in the blood! Being behind the goal in penn 3 singing my heart out with the lads at Filbo is something that all Leicester fans should have at least had one go at. I just hope that the same feeling is recreated for the young lads and lasses who turn up at the Walkers.
