A fox for life Posted 11 July 2014 Posted 11 July 2014 Just reminiscing over last season and bizarrely for me ONE of my favorite moments was at the 79th minute I think it was when Brighton just spanked a forth goal in and about 5000 people got up and started heading for the exit. suddenly this act of idiosy by a glory hunting few sparked probably the noisiest 15 mins of the season at the KP as the loyal supporters rallied against the people leaving and sent abuse to the stair wells. Just like a reaction to a dirty tackle or a poor refereeing decision it juvinated the crowd. After the anger subsided I loved that the whole kop finally stood in unison and it sent shivers down my spine with how loud we were, anyone else have any memories where a loss has had been memorable. (I'm sure Wycombe and Man utd will come up)
Stuliasz Posted 11 July 2014 Posted 11 July 2014 Can't say our fans turning on each other is a classic moment for me. The atmosphere for the last ten minutes in that game was pretty good though.

A fox for life Posted 11 July 2014 Author Posted 11 July 2014 Ha ha definitely not a classic but fascinating end to an inedible run that saw us promoted
Larry_LCFC Posted 11 July 2014 Posted 11 July 2014 Oh good, this debate again. My dick is bigger than your dick. Yawn Was a pretty good atmosphere let me add, but please don't turn this into a plastics argument!

Deucalion Posted 11 July 2014 Posted 11 July 2014 David Pleat and looking at relegation to Division Three - Going home and away. The dire years in the Championship before relegation - Season tickets League One - Season ticket Had a break after relegation from the Prem with Taylor until the last year of Craig Levein. Partly due to living away from Leicester and being short of cash. But...I've been pretty consistent in going down the football regardless of how successful we have been. I also don't think it makes me better than anyone else.
Mark_w Posted 11 July 2014 Posted 11 July 2014 I love autocorrect I honestly can't remember the last time we had a good edible run.
paulsherwood1 Posted 11 July 2014 Posted 11 July 2014 Poor post. Sums up today's 'younger' fan. Is it really such a spine tingling moment when fans turn on fans? I would have said steve claridge at wembley, or the equaliser at wembley vs Swindon or the winner vs boro at Hillsborough... I actually stayed for the whole game vs Brighton, but my over riding feelings were complete embarrassment that our fans in the kop sang what they did. Yes, we had a bigger than normal crowd ( of leicester fans remember, supporting the same team ), how do you know the ones who left were 'plastic'? We don't have plastic fans. If you support leicester, you support leicester. Simple as that. Just because you are a young lad who can go to every game, doesn't make you any better than the family man with 3 kids who can only get to two games, but has travelled the length and breadth of the country following city when they were shit. What a terrible, terrible post!
sdb Posted 11 July 2014 Posted 11 July 2014 It's shit and the kind of thing that makes the team's achievements all the better. Fans who are desperate to moan at anything, including each other! This chat was tried behind me on the last day - so cringeworthy. It was by a bunch of 14 year olds who wouldn't have even been around when I was watching us most weeks. Let me tell you, between 04 and 09 we were really, really, really shit, and those clowns were starting primary school and not watching Nathan Blake spoon over shot after shot following ricochets off Elvis Hammond's willy.
Ian W LCFC Posted 11 July 2014 Posted 11 July 2014 The atmosphere was very good though in that last 10 minutes. I did enjoy that game actually, if it wasn't for the last 10 minutes it had the potential to be one of the worst games of the season. But it is now actually quite memorable.
Fox42 Posted 11 July 2014 Posted 11 July 2014 If everyone stayed for the last ten minutes, we'd have had no atmosphere for the whole match. So let's raise our glasses and thank those who decided enough was enough and left the building.
Hirsty The Blue 94 Posted 11 July 2014 Posted 11 July 2014 Last 10 minutes against Brighton was superb. Just because everybody who stayed was pissed off by everybody who left. The argument has been done to death though about leaving early etc.Another one was the Holloway 'shoes off' match, can't remember who it was against but we were 3-0 down I think so the fans just started pissing about.
Harry - LCFC Posted 11 July 2014 Posted 11 July 2014 The 4-0 down chant was the one. Definitely my favourite song that I've been involved in. Felt so invigorating being able to stand there and defy the negativity that had been there that evening. Don't think goading your own fans is anything to celebrate to be honest. That said, those that left should have stayed. They let themselves down that night.

Yawn Was a pretty good atmosphere let me add, but please don't turn this into a plastics argument! Got nothing to do with being a plastic or not. You're just a bit of a prat if you couldn't hack another 10 minutes to applaud our side that just won promotion.

Sheff Utd away in 2008, the first away game I took my little brother to. We were on the third row back and getting absolutely soaked by the rain as there was a gap from where they extended the roof. James Beattie scored a hat trick in the first half and my little brother started crying saying that he wanted his Mummy. The bloke in front turned around and said, I know mate, I want my Mummy too. To be fair to the lad, he had only just turned two (my little brother, not the bloke in front.......)
Livid Posted 12 July 2014 Posted 12 July 2014 If I should lie on my death bed tomorrow and look back on a lifetime of supporting this great club I shall fondly reminisce not of our Wembley wins, Cup triumphs, or great games i've seen in the last few decades, no it will be those last ten minutes of a pointless 4-0 home defeat, where we decided to turn on our own. What a way to go! Well no I won't because I sodded off with 10 minutes to go. I could go off on one but I'll leave it there. Like I said we should never turn on our own.
Captain... Posted 12 July 2014 Posted 12 July 2014 Wow, it does appear that nobody actually read the original post, not one person, the post is about enjoying a defeat for whatever reason not plastic fans.
Bayfox Posted 12 July 2014 Posted 12 July 2014 Well I started going under pleat and I've been there ever since. So I have seen some shit. In amongst the good times. Wycombe and the following 18 months was pretty odd looking back. From top of the league and beating liverpool to relegation. Rob kelly, cl, hollowhead it's not been great at the walkers. But for a defeat that made me proud to be a city fan and gave me a spine tingle. I give you cardiff away play-off semi final. Not whilst we were shit granted. But anyone there that night knows both the players and fans gave everything and left nothing in our lockers.
promised land Posted 12 July 2014 Posted 12 July 2014 Wow, it does appear that nobody actually read the original post, not one person, the post is about enjoying a defeat for whatever reason not plastic fans. I think you should reread it, it's about giving abuse to fans leaving in the stair wells as he calls them 'glory hunters' and the fans that stay 'loyal supporters'. Personally I think the OP should pull his head out of his arse.
