Is this guy on here?..

 

 

 

I see him at away games all the time. He was once in front of me and he ends up talking at camera so I had to keep moving to avoid getting in his shots. Annoying at a football match.

Sky sports currently having a Leicester love in. 2015/2016 season review currently on and followed by Leicester 5-3 Man U.

New podcast episode from Colin Murray and Elis James. Not listened to it yet so can't vouch for its quality but both of them are usually pretty good.

Only listened to their football ones so far, Wenger v Ferguson and the Rooney ones - they were decent enough. Elis recommended the book by Jonathan Northcroft on the Socially Distant Sports Bar recently so I'd back it to be well researched too

[Jimmy]

They are doing multiple episodes about that season

Is it better than "Leicester City: Thailand Chronicles |  Rimming and Racism"?

Speaking in regards to people that actually do matchday vlogs (not armchair fans like Goldbridge) I think our club gets off lightly as far as YouTube 'fan channels' go. TFW isn't going to win any awards for production or insight but he's harmless enough and puts in the yards to go to games a lot don't bother with (pretty much every away day and a lot of Women's games too, think he has a ST for them?), the other one I watch is MayanTheSilverFox which is just a lad and his dad doing videos together, it's pretty nice.

 

Take that sort of content over some of the ragebait that's trotted out by fans of other clubs. One I do like to watch is Alex Griffin for Ipswich, been doing it for a few years and again, hasn't let the hype get to his head.

the stuff on twitter that comes on my feed that they get the women to do is brutal. one was based around who's the laziest/most annoying/fattest etc i thought, great for morale when they watch it back.

This surely can't be right. The "world famous" Notts Forest having fewer social media followers than Fulham?

You’ve just reminded me of TheTrueFox. What a ****ing gimp he was.

 

Thankfully hounded out.

Matchday vlogs need to be in the bin alongside "can I get your shirt" signs.

Just shows how massive our story was over the past decade that we're "bigger" than the likes of Villa, Newcastle and West Ham online.

The only ones worth bothering with are those from opposition fans after we’ve won.  Watching the camera pan around miserable faces just after we've scored as our fans celebrate in the background is a true balm for the soul.

Gosh he was irritating. 

 

I like to think I'm fairly open to new media but that guy was just a tool. Totally tone deaf to the fans around him. Self indulgent.

Remember that Chelsea fan filming himself celebrating their cup final 'equaliser'? He then carried on filming his look of disappointment as the VAR decision went against them.

Ha ha, yes, and the old boy behind “nah, it’s a goal, it’s a goal”

Remember it? It makes me as emotional and teary-eyed as watching the video of my older child's first steps as a baby.

Leicester Memories

Ahmed Elgahani  · 4h  · 

 

 

One day back in Libya, I received a scholarship to pursue my master’s degree in the UK. At the time, I had no idea about Leicester or its universities. For six months, I sat at my computer, researching British universities, my field of study, and the admission requirements. By chance, I chose De Montfort University, not knowing it was in Leicester.

I first learned about Leicester in 2015/16 through football, a sport I love deeply. I am a devoted A.C. Milan fan, but that season, we all cheered for Leicester City during their historic Premier League campaign. Every goal they scored, every player who played – it was a season for the ages. Our joy knew no bounds at their achievement. From that moment on, Leicester City became my second team, and I still support them to this day.

When I booked my travel tickets, I discovered I would be heading to Leicester for a full year of study with my family. This was to be my first visit to the UK. After a long journey and a layover, we finally arrived in Manchester, where a driver was waiting to take us to Leicester. We stayed at the Holiday Inn for two weeks before finding a year-long rental at Merlin Wharf on Bath Lane, right beside the River Soar.

What an incredible year it was! We had wonderful, kind neighbors, and Leicester was a city filled with warmth and hospitality. My academic journey was intense but fueled by passion. I was studying what I had loved since childhood, and I was driven by a clear goal. I graduated with an outstanding grade and top honors. All the late nights and hard work paid off.

During my time in Leicester, I made friends from all around the world. I also had the opportunity to visit many cities, including London, Manchester, Liverpool, York, Leeds, Birmingham, Hinckley, Loughborough, Coventry, the Peak District, Gloucester, Nottingham, Cheltenham, Bath, Teddington, Churchdown, Stonehenge, Stoneywell, and Market Harborough. I attended several conferences across the UK in my field of mechanical and corrosion engineering, learning so much along the way from the incredible British people.

Leicester, oh, Leicester…

- City Center

- Abbey Park

- Bede Park

- Its Universities

- King Power Stadium

- Royal Infirmary Hospital

- Bradgate Park

- Leicester Library

- Richard III Visitor Center

- St. Martin’s Square

- Leicester Market

- Jubilee Square

- Haymarket

- Highcross

- Railway Station

- London Road

- Oadby

- Nelson Mandela Park

- Newarke Street

- Curve Theatre

... and so much more.

My family and I spent one of the best years of our lives in Leicester. We cherished every single moment.

But then came the sad and tearful farewell. We left for Libya, hopeful that one day, we’ll return to visit Leicester and the UK, perhaps for more studies.

May Leicester and its wonderful people remain safe and secure. Thank you all
