Brighton factually.....
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.

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

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.

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.

Silly old bat
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.

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.

And a helicopter crash.

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.

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.
