Will you be in the country Arro?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately not, hoping to be back in September but that's more hope than anything else 😔

Rarely comment as I don't get to see the games (only brief highlights) but I used to have a season ticket for 8 years before moving to Melbourne in 09. How far have we come, well people used to laugh when I told them I supported Leicester, not anymore....if fact when my son goes to school in his LCFC shirt all the kids know recognise the club straight away.

Agree though I'm a bag of nerves and find myself waking up at 4am to check the scores....

Mate use cricfree and watch every game or download these apps ustream and livestream and you can watch most on your phone now because you'll find live Sky games on that

I was wearing my City shirt in Brizzy the other day and I had people wanting to talk to me about how well we're doing and they're rooting for us. We're not Lychester anymore ha ha 😂

Cheers Arro might just get to see the run in to the premiership title now!

No worries mate, you'll 100% be able to do that with that website and those apps, every game is live to stream 👍

All major LCFC facebook sites have ruined by plastics - does that mean we are a big club now?

A future pub quiz question on our change of fortunes which looks like it will happen:
'Which team has taken part in both the Champions League and the Johnstones Paint Trophy?'
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Leeds United?

How about which team has won League One, the Championship and the Premier League and name the player that won all three?

You haven't won it yet

I know what you mean Dunge. I wouldn't change this season for the world, but there are many things that have come with success that I don't like:

1. No games on a Saturday. Ever.
2. Pressure. Horrible pressure.
3. Nerves. I feel sick all the time now. It was so much easier when I was just depressed.
4. Forums. We can no longer chat between the 8 of us about our club. We have to accommodate other fans who support different clubs. I miss the days of JG having a moan and then 3 of us moaning back.
5. Plastics. All these plastic fans we now have. You're not hardcore like me. I was there during the David pleat era you know!
6. Attention. Stop talking about us media people. It makes me nervous again.
7. Atrogance. All of a sudden we're arrogant. Think we're one of the big boys. Eating ahead of ourselves. When actually we just feel sick. Sick with nerves.
8. Nerves.
9. People want our players. Why did nobody want Beckford?? But now Mahrez everyone wants. Fickle.
10. Nerves. It's awful.

Bring back Pleat, Administration and League 1. Then we can prove we're real fans again 😉👍

I have a slight tear in my eye Mersey reminiscing about those days.
Bring back Larry May, Steve Worthington, Jock Wallace and queuing for 30 minutes for a slash!!
