Weirdest thing ever to happen at a Leicester game

Recommended Posts

Weird/cool things -

I once had a dream we'd win the game the next day 5-1 and Marshall would score the first. We won 4-1 and Marsh scored exactly as in my dream.

Was sat in the Carling stand vs Forest one year and someone near me shouted out at Cyril Regis - Oi Cyril are you my dad?

Ade Akinbye scoring a goal, that was weird

And that goal that everton scored at Filbo in 95 when Poole handled the ball outside of the box (to retake a freekick) the ref gave hand ball and the everton player lobbed it over Poole and into the goal. One of the strangest goals I've seen.

Remember it Well , Andy Hinchcliffe the scorer

Travelling by coach to an away match some years ago, the coach was stopped by the local police, whereupon everybody on board was searched for weapons etc. Amongst the offending items taken were a plastic knife and fork which one of my mates was going to eat his dinner with. Not exactly 'weird' I know

A policeman tried to take my umbrella off me at the Cobblers in the late 80's - seeing as it was pissing down I told him where to go and went into the County Tavern instead.

I seem to remember Stevie Lynex trying to swim at Filbert Street in the early eighties in a game against Soton (i think) that was abandoned after about 18-19 mins because 2ft of rain fell in about 10 mins!!!

As an irresponsible youngster me and a few mates started a fire in the brim a guys trilby hat.

I thought that was pretty funny at the time.

I used to respect you. :dunno:

I remember that well - I'm sure the match of the day cameras were there

It was 45 years ago - and I was easily led.

My dad saw a Lincoln match where the goalposts literally fell over and the groundstaff had to put them back up.

Ive actually been to Lincoln with a mate who follows Blackpool, it was years back now though. The Blackpool fans invaded the pitch and snapped the crossbar.

It all happens at Sencil Bank. :chant:

Also following Blackpool... At The Bescott, BFC fans running onto the pitch invading Walsall's goalies (forget who he was) goal for his mascot (he put it in the bottom corner of the net) which happened to be a plastic fish. :unsure:

No-one knew what was going on. The linesman gave offside, Parker kicked it to Poole to take the free-kick, he picked it up, a couple of Everton players protested claiming a back-pass, Poole gave the ball to them and Hinchcliffe lobbed it over him into the net.

Strange stuff.

Geezer from Bentlys roof running across the pitch

Wombat running on the pitch to have a go at Walker

I have been in hysterics 3 or 4 times in L1 this season, if Tommeh, Daggers, Ched or JohnBlueFox could remind me why the I am sure it would add to this thread.

Christ was that 14 years ago? I remember at the time I was livid with the ref.

I remember Richard "Smudger" Smith going in goal, that was weird at the time?

I once remember a mate of mine donning a blazer and a pair of Farah slacks and blagging his way into the players entrance and half an hour later seeing him on the pitch with them inspecting it.

Do players still come out half an hour before kick off to inspect the pitch?

I'm never there that early these days.

Just went and asked my Dad what he thought.

He remembers back in about 1973 (when he was like 15) the Three Degrees came out onto the pitch at Filbert Street, and when the kop started cheering them, one of the bolted over to the Kop and started waving and cheering. (I thought it was weird just havng the three degrees at a football match in England!)

And mine.

Remembering back to 2004, and seeing thousands of free, complementary copies of Nuts (or Zoo, cant remember) raining down onto the pitch after we conceded our 4th against Aston Villa... that was a weird sight. (also, seeing LCFC apologise in the next programme issue, becuase of the 'adult' nature of the magazine! :teehee: )

Obviously the CLive Clarke incident,

Mark Davies goal was quite weird when he looked like he was knocked out and the crowd sort of went silent! :o

Doing a lap of the pitch with the Birch and other numerous City celebs on his charity run (I chatted to David Neilson...aka Roy Cropper) back in the Levein era (if you can call it an era!). I narrowly missed boshing into Rob Kelly just outside the dug out. I collected money for a but before kick off...and I never did get the Croppers autograph! I'm sure Conrad was on the bench and Ian Walker was warming up...

I remember the Birch effectively telling us to sod off, but Roy was quite chatty.

Must have been 2004/2005?

Got into raising the money part as my mate from uni used to be Filbert Fox at Filbert Street and knew Roy Cropper as his son went to my halls of residence a few years previous....haha thats what you call connections!!!
