Kilworthfox Posted 31 July 2007 Posted 31 July 2007 Cheers for that.I think I know the reasons why, but has there been any official word on why this has been done? NO there has not. They have done it to know who is exactly where, so they can tackle issues like standing drinking smoking n all the stuff which football used to be about
Bellend Sebastian Posted 31 July 2007 Posted 31 July 2007 Minimise trouble I presume. I'm sure you're right. I've been in that section since the first season there, and although it's been getting gradually worse since then, there was a big influx of wannabe hooligans (average age about 15) after the Mandaric takeover. Presumably their pocket money won't stretch to season tickets

Tis getting gradually worse,lets hope the season tickets only resolves it and keeps the decent atmosphere we enjoy there now and again.!
Simi Posted 31 July 2007 Posted 31 July 2007 Too true my friend!Tis getting gradually worse,lets hope the season tickets only resolves it and keeps the decent atmosphere we enjoy there now and again.! But I doubt it will keep the atmosphere. Hooligans or not, they sing at the end of the day. Fair enough, shitty songs directed at the away fans. Better than nothing I feel.
samingram_uk Posted 31 July 2007 Posted 31 July 2007 NO there has not.They have done it to know who is exactly where, so they can tackle issues like standing drinking smoking n all the stuff which football used to be about So no more standing at the top of L1?

Better than nothing I feel. Fair point...hope you are wrong about the atmosphere cos its a fair crack in L1,just needs a few boys to grow up abit.

Better than nothing I feel. I actually don't agree mate, I hate the St Georges songs and IRA related crap, FFS we are Leicester! Only If we are playing Cardiff should we sing about being English! I was actually quite shocked by some of the "scroats" songs vs Notts County racism songs are not acceptable! N1 is all about singing LCFC songs, L1 sing about LCFC but also outside issues which should be left outside
Simi Posted 31 July 2007 Posted 31 July 2007 Fair point...hope you are wrong about the atmosphere cos its a fair crack in L1,just needs a few boys to grow up abit. Time will tell. This is the sort of thing that I wanted to be bought up and the Q&A last night. Not the same regurgitated question about money been made available over and over. Something that the club hasn't really clarified. I know lcfc_jme emailed the club asking them a question of this sort. Shame it wasn't looked at.

Don't know if im qualified enough to say but i do disaprove about singing' No surrender to the IRA' to fcuking Ipswich fans(for example). And although i have been told of a couple of racist incidents hopefully the vast majority of decent folk can nip that in the bud
Bellend Sebastian Posted 31 July 2007 Posted 31 July 2007 They have done it to know who is exactly where, so they can tackle issues like standing drinking smoking n all the stuff which football used to be about Neither of those things used to bother me, as it used to be just the back half a dozen rows or so that would stand up, and I can cope with the smoking as it's pretty much open air, isn't it? I've sat in the same seat for all but the first season in the Walkers and all of a sudden this season every couple of games we will have a random teenager, often completely on their own, usually with a shocking skin complaint, standing up right in front of us despite the fact that every single person on their row and the row behind is sat down. I'd be less bothered if they actually watched the game or knew any songs, but they seem to pay money just to stare at the away fans and randomly swear at them, or stand with their back towards the pitch gazing open mouthed in awe (or confusion) at their tracksuited brethren further up the stand. Was I like that at their age? I hope not. I was too drunk to behave badly, usually Rant over, thanks for reading (if you did)

They are unacceptable, but killing of the few singers we have is not the way forward. I agree, when songs like that are sung, i just stop and think, why the hell... N is the place for you then mate .
samingram_uk Posted 31 July 2007 Posted 31 July 2007 N is the place for you then mate . 'tis bit late, L1, Row NN Seat 294
Kilworthfox Posted 31 July 2007 Posted 31 July 2007 I agree, when songs like that are sung, i just stop and think, why the hell... Well thats why I won't sit over there due to the stupidity and ill educated mind set of the boys over there in the Stone Island gear, come on lads who they fooling? 1 what do they actually know of the history of Northern Ireland? 2 who are they to start the chants at our non white players! 3 Why can't they just support the team? Is it so difficult? I am part of Leicester City's mighty proud blue army who are proud to sing OUR songs! Not an imitation hooligan who wears a checked hat and a extortionate & poor fashion taste woolly top
Kilworthfox Posted 31 July 2007 Posted 31 July 2007 'tis bit late, L1, Row NN Seat 294 you can move any time you want I moved along with many others half way through the season to N from the Kop and I will only go back if N is abandoned
samingram_uk Posted 31 July 2007 Posted 31 July 2007 you can move any time you want I moved along with many others half way through the season to N from the Kop and I will only go back if N is abandoned well i give it a couple of games, and see where we go from their on.

Kilworthfox Posted 31 July 2007 Posted 31 July 2007 well i give it a couple of games, and see where we go from their on. oh shit thats what i'm doing! do you wanna swap after 2?
