What's your favourite Leicester City radio commentary moment?

Recommended Posts

Posted

The one where Stringer got orgasmic when a Leicester player was presented with an unmissable opportunity,only to miss or shoot straight at the keeper.

Oh wait...the one???

Seriously though, Hugh Johns on Star Soccer (ATV's answer to 'On The Ball') when Andy Peake scored v Liverpool in 1980.

"He's beaten one of the greatest keepers in the world from 30 yards"

Can't remember any radio commentaries apart from Mr. Stringer

Opening day of the season: "ITS THEREEEEEEEEEE, oh it hasn't crossed the line, appologies." Stringer vs Cov

"PENALTYYYYYYYYY, oh it's outside the box". Stringer vs Watford in the last minute

Stringer when gradel scored against MK dons

Totally agree! I'd love to find a copy of this somewhere - despite Stringer being a prat a lot of the time (the amount of times I've shouted abuse at the radio when he's called a penalty for us, before changing his mind!) this was a great example of the fun that can be had listening to him commentate!

The other classic, would be either when we secured the League One trophy at Southend ("Biscuits all round!", or something to that effect) or the "peeling carrots" comment about Gallagher's foot!

I find little to get incensed about apart from the shoddy signal I sometimes get - I enjoy the match commentary, especially how they genuinely get excited when we score.

Came in here to suggest that as well. :)

Hello

Just signed up to let you know that I found some gems from the BBC Radio Leicester archives on this link - I should get out more!

Particular highlights are in Part 4, which features the classic Nev Foulger commentary of Claridge's shin (c.2mins 20). Then there's the CC Cup magicfrom about 16.45 on.

Enjoy and up the city!

By the way - if you know the song that's playing behind the Claridge commentary, please let us know, it's doing my head in!

Cheers!

Before I can remember but surely it has to be

"and that could be... the winner from Claridge!!!!!"

Although not radio but yanno.

Stringer's has to be the "it'll be Gradel, right footed, IT'S THERRRRRRRRRE!" or when he said something about giving Fryatt a biscuit. That was nice.

My favourite that I can remember at the moment was when Fryatt scored away at Aston Villa. I just remember something like "Matty Fryatt's through on goal. MATTY FRYATTS JUST MADE IT 1-0 TO LEICESTER!"

I just remember the commentator going crazy and so was I. Especially after what Villa did to us the season before.
