Voll Blau Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 Market harborough. Lest-tarr. Maaaaakidarbrah actually fella.
TOMBlcfc Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 Just saying to those who are saying it's wrong and it should be in the leicester accent. It's 'les-tah' because that's how it's said in the song (treat) and not how it is pronounced just as a word. Personally i love the t shirts and am currently wearing my own with pride
PAPA LAZAROU Posted 2 July 2014 Posted 2 July 2014 LES-TUH That case it should be Less --Tuh not les as in lesbian or les as in French. ?

danny. Posted 4 July 2014 Posted 4 July 2014 The Leicester/Lestah/Lestoh/Lestuh accent varies quite a bit, I'm from south Leicester and sound quite different to someone from say East Goscote, Thurmaston, or Glenfield. I would say 'LestAh', but have heard 'LestOh' and 'LestUh' also. And, even rarer, the odd 'Leicester'.
pen_3 Posted 4 July 2014 Author Posted 4 July 2014 Blimey there are some very highly strung people on this board, remember it's a just tee shirt. UP THE CITY!
Gary Eatfood Posted 4 July 2014 Posted 4 July 2014 Okay I'll concede that perhaps not the worst in the Midlands, that's reserved for Dudley. But it is still awful, before it worked in the states I knew that we talked in slang but in my head it was the british equivalent of a South American "Texan drawl", a poor analogy but with the words we pronounce all melding together..... Kind of "Oh-rite-ma'e-goo-in-shop-d'ya-won-owt?" (Alright mate? I am going to the shops, do you want anything?) Problem was in the US nobody could understand me, so I ended up talking like them and picking up their accent so so I could get by without repeating myself one hundred times a day. Anyway, after an extended time away, I came home and could actually hear our accent, I realised how terrible it really is, I was actually embarrassed listening to my family speak because they just sounded like idiots. We sound like an amplified version of Vicky Pollard. How anybody from other areas of the country think we sound I don't know. I know people abuse scoucers, mancs, brummies etc but at least theirs has a bit of character to them - ours is so shit nobody even parodies it! I wouldn't say a Leicester accent is shit, it's just non-descript. To Northerners we sound Southern and to Southerners we sound Northern. One thing I do know is that I pronounce Leicester as Leicester and definitely not Les-Tah.

Brooksy Posted 4 July 2014 Posted 4 July 2014 Blimey there are some very highly strung people on this board, remember it's a just tee shirt. UP THE CITY! Why are you charging 15 quid for it then?
The Doctor Posted 5 July 2014 Posted 5 July 2014 Blimey there are some very highly strung people on this board, remember it's a just tee shirt. UP THE CITY! I highly doubt that t-shirt has any concept of justice, let alone the ability to hand it down. Still, why are you charging £15 for it? You're a con-artist, trying to milk money from other people despite doing nothing.

The Doctor Posted 5 July 2014 Posted 5 July 2014 YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY ONE.... I REPEAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY ONE - UP THE CITY. New City shirt available soon only £45.00. No we don't, and you also don't have to charge £15 for a blue t-shirt with 6 letters printed on it. So why are you? How are you justifying that price?
