isaidno Posted 2 August 2008 Author Posted 2 August 2008 2-0 up werent we? Yep, Kevin Phillips scored a cracker for Southampton, Dickov (pen) and sir Les for us
The Stig Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 In the last 14 sessons, Leicester have only won 3 times on the opening day, so don't get your hopes up for saturday 07-08 Blackpool 0-1 - All the hype turned to disapointment, even more so than normal. Again, story of the season. 06-07 Luton 0-2 - No way of putting it. Bad preformance, bad season. 05-06 Sheffield Utd 1-4 - Bad luck but no progress show. Story of the season. 04-05 West Ham 0-0 - Unspectacular. Story of the season. 03-04 Southampton 2-2 - Gave away a 2 goal lead. Story of the season. 02-03 Watford 2-0 01-02 Bolton 0-5 00-01 Aston Villa 0-0 99-00 Arsenal 1-2 98-99 Man Utd 2-2 97-98 Villa 1-0 96-97 Sunderland 0-0 95-96 Sunderland 1-0 94-95 Newcastle 1-3 The first game tells a story. To be honest I didn't follow City as much prior to 2002 but I'm sure there was more similarities.
morris1234 Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 and we have the whole ' first game curse' dont we, what was it?? no manager had won their first cometitive game for us in ages or something like that? it obviously popped up a couple of times last season with the different managers! but didnt holloway win his first for us (bristol 2-0) or is the 'curse' for the first game of the season?
Fox You Forest Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 03-04 Southampton 2 - 2 Now that one pissed me off. Two cracking goals from Southampton that game.
The Stig Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 03-04 Southampton 2 - 2 Now that one pissed me off. God I felt like crying. I was on Cloud 9 when we were two goals up. Really buzzing, then crushed!
Asha Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 Curses Purses. Either way we would of been shit these last few years.
Tilley Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 04-05 West Ham 0-0 Lilian Nalis hit the bar in this match, about all that happened to be honest 2-0 up werent we? We were indeed. Two cracking goals from Southampton that game. Too right, what a player Kevin Phillips is. God I felt like crying. I was on Cloud 9 when we were two goals up. Really buzzing, then crushed! Me too, summed up our season that game did.
lavrentis Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 Yep, Kevin Phillips scored a cracker for Southampton, Dickov (pen) and sir Les for us Wasn't us against Middlesborough the same but they beat us 4-3, I have a bad memory
lcfcrinaldi Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 Negativity isnt going to do us a favour, we deserve to be excited about the first game of the season after last season. We also deserve to be optimistic and say we are going to kill the dons 5-0.
ASH17LCFC Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 In the last 14 sessons, Leicester have only won 3 times on the opening day, so don't get your hopes up for saturday 07-08 Blackpool 0-1 - Too much hype and was abit smash and grab but even then you could we needed a goal scorer. 06-07 Luton 0-2 - Why Kelly isn't a manager 05-06 Sheffield Utd 1-4 - To be honest we were robbed by a dodey ref, one stage we looked like winning 04-05 West Ham 0-0 - West Ham where favorites with us, so a point looked good 03-04 Southampton 2-2 - The story of our season. 02-03 Watford 2-0 - First game at the walkers and we had a good side 01-02 Bolton 0-5 - Taylor 00-01 Aston Villa 0-0 - We played pretty poor and Ade did have a 1 on 1 and guess what ?! 99-00 Arsenal 1-2 - Was 1-1 till Frank turned into a Arsenal player 98-99 Man Utd 2-2 - Dodgey Ref, was 2-0 and he added about 20 mins injury time and Beckham scored a free kick 97-98 ]Villa 1-0 - Super Ian Marshall, we got off to a cracking start that season beat Liverpool next game 96-97 Sunderland 0-0 - Remember going to this, was Keller Debut and Heskey and Robins played up top 95-96 Sunderland 1-0 - I'm pretty sure this was 2-1 and Corcia and Robins scored 94-95 Newcastle 1-3 - Draper missed a penalty
Asha Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 Wasn't us against Middlesborough the same but they beat us 4-3, I have a bad memory We were 3-1 up at Middlesbrough that year, and in the 93rd minute Maccarone scored for them, and a minute later Curtis wanked the ball into his own goal. So it were 3-3.
Finchy Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 02-03 Watford 2-095-96 Sunderland 1-0 02-03 - Promotion 95-96 - Promotion So, if we do win on Saturday
Tevez Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 02-03 - Promotion 95-96 - Promotion So, if we do win on Saturday , Great Spot.
sdb Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 2-2 draw at Old Trafford was devestating!! Injury time Beckham; what i'd give to feel gutted at drawing there now!
ASH17LCFC Posted 2 August 2008 Posted 2 August 2008 2-2 draw at Old Trafford was devestating!! Injury time Beckham; what i'd give to feel gutted at drawing there now! Worst thing about that i think Izzet scored in about the 75 min and i was like 2 season on the trot !!! The i think Keller went off and then Teddy scored via a deflection and then injury time went on for aggggges and then twato scored.
