crisp monster Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 Supporting Leicester is never that easy and travelling to away games usually has a feeling of ' we'll do well to get a point there ' So was wondering following the inevitable away day blues, what was your best defeat - there's plenty to choose from! I'll start the ball rolling with the 7-1 @ Hillsborough in the league cup - don't know the year ( 89 ish?) Bobby Davidson's late goal sent the city fans bonkers Wednesday were a very good side in those days but our fans were great Edit - not counting play off and cup finals @ Wembley
steveherbe Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 As stated on another topic, 6-1 at Pompey wasnt great. Mind you, the 4-0 demolition of Bristol City this year helped to repair the damage.
Guest MattP Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 Felt quote proud after Frank Burrows took Allen's bunch of rejects to Chelsea in the 4-3 at the bridge. The 2-2 at Old Trafford was horrendous after the abuse we had thrown at Beckham, felt like a defeat but it was brilliant up until that 96th minute equaliser. Being selfish personal point of view the night Fulham scored late to beat is in the cup at the cottage, it was the last one I needed in an accy for £760 and I was well aware of it.

Harry - LCFC Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 Chelsea 5-2 last season. Felt like our fans dominated Stamford Bridge throughout the match. It was also a pretty eventful day otherwise, getting up at 6:00 to catch the train, my mate getting called a "fvcking northern monkey" by some overweight west-Londoner. Good times.
Lakes fox Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 Blackburn when we were 5-0 down an brought it back to 5-3 class game with a very good Chris Sutton
crisp monster Posted 28 February 2013 Author Posted 28 February 2013 It was 1992. Cheers - only 3 years out!
Leicesterpool Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 Our 2-3 defeat to West Ham last season, awful first half but a bit of a fight back second half and of course we we're without a manager!

Bobby Davidson's late goal sent the city fans bonkers Wednesday were a very good side in those days but our fans were great Edit - not counting play off and cup finals @ Wembley I was at that one...a good evening out. What about losing 5-1 away to Man U in the league cup. I think it was this game that Speedie squared up to Peter Schmeichel. Another good laugh with no pressure because we had lost very early on. My worst away game was probably losing 5-1 to Hull on a Friday night at Boothferry Park in freezing drizzle. Ricky Hill was on goal at one point and passed the ball to the wing. Horrendous performance. Worst thing was, we stopped for a bag of chips afterwards and had some pissed up Leicester fan insisting we let him into our car as his mates had left him.

Being selfish personal point of view the night Fulham scored late to beat is in the cup at the cottage, it was the last one I needed in an accy for £760 and I was well aware of it. Was really struggling to think of a good away defeat, but yeah Chelsea in the Cup was a cracking game.
The Year Of The Fox Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 Again, Cardiff away in the playoffs. I've suggested it in this thread, the worst ever games and best ever games thread. It really was that type of game
skinnydipper Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 Shoes off was a good day out considering it was game over after 25 minutes and we got spanked 3-0.
deanolegend1989 Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 Cardiff away playoffs. Proudest I felt to be a Leicester fan in defeat. Brilliant fighting spirit and deserved so much better! Other games we didnt win but was so proud of our lot: Manchester Utd 2-2 Leicester 98/99. Tottenham 4-4 Leicester 03/04. Stoke 0-0 Leicester 08/09(Ok some of you may be like but tbh such a crap team we were we showed great spirit and battered a Stoke team who ended up being promoted. That wernt the game that took us down). Arsenal 2-1 Leicester 03/04. Chelsea 4-3 Leicester 07/08.

I was @ both of them as well Could be wrong but didnt Schmeichel hack our forward down in the box @ 1-0 to them. Free kick given outside the box and a yellow card. The free kick got charged down, straight down our end, 2-0 :-( Could be wrong though
Bluetintedspecs Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 Newcastle Away 93 amazing atmosphere got drubbed 7-1 in their promotion party, our fans were brilliant and it was noise from them that made hair stand up on back of your neck! Amazing experience and great fro our fans too never stopped singing!

Free kick given outside the box and a yellow card. The free kick got charged down, straight down our end, 2-0 :-( Could be wrong though Something like that, yeah. There was a time when I could remember every goal and scorer, but not anymore. It's more like odd things stand out rather than all the details.
He's not bald Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 Got to be against Harlow Town circa 1980, think it was an FA cup replay, really funny because I seem to remember you could just walk up a grass bank from the road to watch the game, and we got chased at the end, turned out ok because I'm pretty sure we got promoted the same season!
kingfox Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 Our 2-3 defeat to West Ham last season, awful first half but a bit of a fight back second half and of course we we're without a manager! Same as LeicesterPool. Because it's the only away match I've been to, where we have lost
Alexikokopops Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 I came on to post Chelsea 4-3 (and the plethora of "Cheryl Cole's a slapper..." chants we had on the tube after), and the "shoes off" 3-0 loss to Sheffield United, but looks like I've been beaten to it
Dan Posted 28 February 2013 Posted 28 February 2013 6-1 at Portsmouth. The game was so farcical we just made the most of it.
AKCJ Posted 1 March 2013 Posted 1 March 2013 The 3-2 away to Forest was decent. I know it was Forest and all. But we were both teams scrapping for playoffs so there was a very good turnout and we both really went for it. I went absolutely mental when we went straight up the other end after conceding. Shame Weale ****ed it up though
Uncle Albert Posted 1 March 2013 Posted 1 March 2013 Sheff United lost 3-0, Beattie hat-trick in the first half. "Shoes off.." 4-3 Carling Cup v Chelsea. 3-2 or 4-3 v Fulham FA Cup - Danny Cadimatri du du du.
Guest Basildon Fox Posted 1 March 2013 Posted 1 March 2013 Has to be the Ipswich 3-2 defeat in 91 in the last away game of the season. Absolute carnage!! Also Derby in and around the Xmas period in 1993 was a corker too. Ended up in some pub not too far away from the BBG and was all Leicester. We were 2-1 down Coatsworth was sent off. We then made it 2-2 and all the fans went mental. Just a shame that they then scored again to win it.
ScoutMan Posted 1 March 2013 Posted 1 March 2013 Man Utd away 03/04 lost 1-0 to a goal by Gary Neville. Real postive performance and great atmosphere.
Kitchandro Posted 1 March 2013 Posted 1 March 2013 Most away defeats hit harder than home ones for me so it's difficult to remember a good one. The Forest 5-1 was strangely one of the better ones, we'd lost it by half time and we knew it, but the fans were great and just stuck two fingers up to the world that day. Great sense of humour. The journey home was pretty funny as well, my mate was driving like a nutter. A special mention to Peterborough last season actually - simply because it was the first and probably the only time I'll experience terracing.
