[Football] An Irrational Hatred of Leicester City

[Cheeky Monkey]

I've always had one, dating back to the 1990s. Maybe it's not so irrational...

Its a meh football club that would have remained quite meh if it wasnt for that PL win.

 

[Justice]

Vardy FC init.

 

[Insel affe]

We have had some very good wins over them, I can’t see what the issue is, one in 94 I think we knocked em outta a cup 2-0 at Filbert Street ? I’m sure I went to that.

Bit rich, pretty sure the vast majority of neutral fans would say we were much more of a meh football club than Leicester if they had to choose considering the history of the two clubs!

Goal music and those clackers every game though... Awful.

And a helicopter crash.

And they are adding a further 8,000 seats to the KP, do they actually need them?

I had a real dislike of the club when I lived up that way and worked in Leicester. All my workmates were Foxes and Of course I got a lot of patronising stick from them . We were a smaller club then although we were in the same league often but struggling, whereas they were major

My feelings against them are waning now since I retired and moved back. Pity about last night though.. the narrowest Of margins.

They cheated their way to the Premier League by writing off debts. It was because of Leicester the punishment of deducting points by going into admin was introduced.
They, apart from Leeds, are the most homophobic club, I’ve ever come across.

Not hatred, but irrational dislike. Confirmed in the stadium build. Which was twenty years ago apparently. So in football terms still plenty of life left in this one.

 

[Super Steve Earle]

The match thread revealed more of an irrational hatred of Connolly than Leicester City.

I know of a few hundred of us who don't have an irrational hatred of Leicester, summed up in 3 words:-

Stuart.

Munday

Ah, you mean that mis-hit cross that ended up going in?

Not even close to the goal line in my memory - very strange place to cross from. Might have to dig out the video later

They absolutely did cheat their way to the Prem by writing off their debts. And then massively gambled on FFP when they were in the Championship years later. It really annoys me when people bang on about how great it was for football that Leicester won the league. The same people will then complain about Chelsea, Man City and Newcastle take overs ruining football. Leicester are just another example of what's wrong with football.

They’re certainly the closest thing to a real life Harchester United, aren’t they? Helicopter crashes, 5000/1 title wins, star striker signed from non-league, Wagatha Christie, youth team sex scandals, the list goes on.

An interesting coincidence given that Leicester were generally the team used to create the footage for Harchester’s games.

 

[Dr Q]

team meh, but an irrational dislike of dodgy scrap metal merchant look-a-likey Vardy!

 

[Gabbafella]

Don't really care about Leicester, my old boss and a current colleague both supporters and are genuine footy blokes.
It's that plucked parrot looking **** Vardy I can't stand. Something very dislikeable about him.

There was a thread on here, years ago, "admiring" a "fit" female Leicester supporter, complete with photos.
