SVEN-SATIONAL Posted 12 May 2013 Share Posted 12 May 2013 Watched on Sky, to say I'm gutted is an understatement, but at the final whistle, my 3 year old came up to me, gave me his blue power ranger and said "Don't be upset daddy, we'll always love Leicester." I never thought you could feel proud, happy and sad at the same time. Onwards and upwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SVEN-SATIONAL Posted 12 May 2013 Author Share Posted 12 May 2013 Jesus, I'm actually crying. Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but, yes, I left the room to compose myself! At least there's one for the next generation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SVEN-SATIONAL Posted 12 May 2013 Author Share Posted 12 May 2013 I love the fact he's going to grow up supporting us, but hate the fact he'll see days like today. It's all part of the 'fun' I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spudulike Posted 12 May 2013 Share Posted 12 May 2013 My 'lad' is 20. Hasn't spoken a word since the game finished. No blue Power Ranger, nothing. He's up in his room, probably best not to disturb him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al-aLondon-Foxile Posted 12 May 2013 Share Posted 12 May 2013 My 19yr old son had a few tears :-/ it was a unreal to finish the game like that, complete bonkers. Football brings so many emotions, but I'm glad I've brought my lads up with a real passion for our club. They yearn for the wembley trips I've had and are down today, but we'll bounce back, we will.

HEGGSY Posted 12 May 2013 Share Posted 12 May 2013 I sat with Ashley in the Vicarage road stand and balled my eyes out. It was absolutely horrible and I won't forget this day, although, sadly for all the wrong reasons. But, WE LOVE YOU WE LOVE YOU WE LOVE YOU AND WHERE YOU PLAY WE FOLLOW WE FOLLOW WE FOLLOW BECAUSE WE SUPPORT THE LEICESTER THE LEICESTER THE LEICESTER AND THAT'S THE WAY WE LIKE IT WE LIKE IT WE LIKE IT and we always will boys and girl.

chapero82 Posted 12 May 2013 Share Posted 12 May 2013 As soon as the commentators said we had never lost a play off semi final away and that nobody has scored three past us all season so don't start doing it now, I knew we would lose, curse of the commentator all game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElsieLC Posted 12 May 2013 Share Posted 12 May 2013 With my 9 year old lad in the Soar Point. Could see him welling up at the finish so tried to bale out quickly. Torrents of vented spleen outside the entrance as we got our bikes unlocked. 'Another ****in' French ****er ****ed it up' etc etc That upset the lad more than the result. Same idiot giving the effing had been giving it the 'allez les bleus' at the penalty decision. About an hour and half later he mischievously sang 'might sell Knockaert'...........

SVEN-SATIONAL Posted 12 May 2013 Author Share Posted 12 May 2013 I think it's great that you get to pass on this kind of misery to your kids. But we'd be failures if it was any other way. Imagine supporting Man Utd, it'd be bloody boring. As someone pointed out earlier, days like today make the highs even better. It'll come, just a matter of when, not if. But without my little boy today, I don't know how I'd have handled it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nlukka Posted 12 May 2013 Share Posted 12 May 2013 I'm the only one in my family who supports City, the rest are United 'fans' To make my afternoon worse, I had to sit whilst they 'celebrated' United's success. I now feel physically sick and haven't spoken to anyone in hours. But wouldn't have it any other way.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather walk down to a park and support a team for real, its better than shouting at a tv once a week. We're real fans, we'll bounce back in August.
