I guess Leicester is a dump and so is Coventry, but at least our county is nice. The West Midlands is grim as you’re not part of Warwickshire anymore.

It's such weird behaviour from them.

One or two clinging on to Forest knowing full well Derby will always be their main rivals.
Click to expand...
Even though Forest go on about us all of the time on their forum. Due to them not meeting as much recently the rivalry has become more intense. There wasn’t mich rivalry between Derby and Forest until the
mid 70s.

I will still be here come 2.30 Saturday congratulating you on retainong the M69 Trophy.

Wasn't at that one but did go to the 3-0 cup win (Telfer's ping would have taken a couple of them out if the net wasn't in the way), and 2-0 in the league earlier in the 90s (Dion brace). Absolute smegwarren of a ground. You mention the stagnant water, there were bare lightbulbs hanging from the roof! Lost sight of the ball at every keeper kick. Even Luton would mock that away end.

Godspeed to the SBA going into enemy territory on Sat. Top tip, keep your hands in your pockets on the way to the ground. 3-1 to the Sky Blues.

Last time you beat us at our place. A win for you here will be a law of averages one as you have to beat us at our place one day!

Never seen that video. I used to go with my dad every home game but after that he stopped going regularly as he said that was not how he wanted to enjoy an afternoon out. Still went occasionally for "safer" games but that might be why I remember it better than other games.

Why have they not been docked points yet? Consistently been getting away with financial doping for decades now

Hopefully because they’re leaving it as late as possible to see how many points they need to deduct to fuck them over.

It's really lovely to see all the Cov tops now around Hinckley and especally Burbage. When Leicester won the prem Leicester shirts were everywhere in these areas but all I see now is Cov tops.

Deducting them on the last game of the season to take them out of the Play Offs would be nice

Savage coming out with 'magnificent' over Isaac Moore is completely against my thoughts on Savage.
Perhaps my memeory is clouded by the night in Derby when he got a young Jordan Clarke sent off, I've hated the fucker since, but credit where it's due, he's giving the lad a good shot at the club.

So glad that I’m not the only one who’s held that grudge since then.

Far more likely to be waiting to see how many points to deduct to not fuck them over.

Giving them a points deduction making it look like they're punishing them, but making sure it doesn't impact their season and get them mired in a legal battle.

Not come across this before - I was there too, only game I went to that year (was only 10). Remember a Leicester fan trying to attack the West terrace... he ended up with a broken arm.

Sat in a friends coffee place with Leicester fans talking about how the nazi’s should’ve finished us off. I’m sure every fan base has dickheads - but Jesus, What are people on. There was zero humour to it. People are utter cunts

The only reason the Germans bombed Coventry was they thought Leicester had already been bombed !

Especially as Leicester was also bombed a few days later but the collective half a brain cell probably doesn't even know that.

Words fail me when it comes to situations such as you've described.

I'm inclined to think that the world is infested with ignoramus fuckwits and no amount of discussion, therapy, counselling, brutal inhumane electric shock treatment or any other medical treatments known to mankind will change these scourges on society's mindsets.

EDIT
I'd rather these 'things' didn't breathe the same air as me and walk this earth.

We've never won at their new ground, can remember 3 occasions where we've lost after going ahead as well.

Can see us beating them on all the stats but losing 1-0. Hopefully the other way round.

Thanks for sharing. The most unbalanced highlights I’ve ever watched - 40 mins of a goalless first half and two mins of the second half featuring two goals!

I was too young to appreciate it at the time but Benno really was a fantastic player. Whenever you see old games on The Big Match or whatever he’s always the star man. Would be worth millions today.
