Yeah and we play in Europe against Bayern Munich etc and would have played in the Cup Winners Cup if it wasn't for those Bastard's Liverpool fans.

Now I’ve forgotten how you qualified to play Bayern.

Now I think about it I used to know a lad who supported Leicester and Rangers, other than that genuinely never met one. Met a couple of Cov fans since I moved to London a decade ago funnily enough, but never Leicester.

We are not claiming to be one of the biggest clubs in England like Leicester.

That was nothing to do with the comment. The point made was that we (apparently) have a huge fanbase compared to Leicester.

We are similar sized cities and have vaguely similar historical attendances, give or take a coupe of thousand.

The fanbases are pretty similar.

My boss is a Fester fan , always giving it we’re bigger than you , your just as shit as Derby . It’s only the last few years they did ok but let’s be honest they’re in the same league as us for a reason … they just wasn’t good enough to stay in the EPL . Like us , and that’s why they’re in the championship. So it pisses me off them six fingered Inbreds think they’re bigger and better than us . Mutants the lot of them

Neither.

Yet, having worked all over the country, I meet/see loads of Sunderland, Leeds, Newcastle fans/shirts. Don't tend to see/meet Leicester unless you visit the small towns and villages they mostly come from.

I spend half my working week in Leicester, been to a few Leicester/ Cov games with them. Most are ok but some are VERY delusional think they are up there with inter, Liverpool, Man City etc. what does make me laugh is they never understand why any player would leave - McGuire for Man U ‘ why’ ah because he thinks he will get more trophies. Maybe that hasn’t worked but Maress (spelling) to Man City certainly did.

I'd hate to burst your bubble but Forest and Derby fan bases are not bigger then Leicester.

From European football statistics from the year 1889 to 2023, Leicester rank 17th overall in English football with an average attendance of 19,764, Derby are next ranked 20th with 18,598, Forest are ranked at 22nd with 18,548 and Coventry rank at 25th with an average attendance of 17,196.

Let's not get into our social media following or popularity dwarfs all 3 of your clubs combined on all platforms, we're ranked 7th overall in England.

Leicester shirt sales are also top 10 in England.

A quick Google search will confirm all this thank you. FACTS.

Hence why they both hate each other and see Leicester as a 2nd rival.

Clueless, Leicester and Forest was the original derby, until the Cloughie thing between the two clubs is where Derby became Forest main rivals.

Thank you, but the fact is Leicester City have alway been the best supported club in the East Midlands. Forest especially have this myth their massive, no their a provincial club nothing more.

Imagine writing this back in 2010 before Leicester had actually won a major trophy and not Mickey Mouse cups.

Edit...

The bit about arguing who's bigger out of the three East Mids clubs is funny. Do you think the general population really see Leicester as bigger than those two?

I bet you wish you could win a Mickey mouse cup right now hahahaha. Did Sarries not win anything at the Ricoh hahaha.

I know I'm new here but why are some lot from Leicester flapping their gums on a Cov fans forum, even in the early hours of the morning! Sounds a bit obsessed...

Not only reading comments, but also taking the time to create an account on their side would make me feel dirty. Nah, could never be me.

Admin need to get on top and remove some of these Leicester accounts - it’s ruining the forum. Some of the Leicester lot will actually engage fairly, whilst others like Hackneyfox and this new plum Vixs are here just on the wind-up.
