How far are you kept away from away fans?
Is it a health requirement demanded by the away clubs?
Losing 6k because of segregation is ridiculous.

Please be careful what you post, that reads like something that might pull Tony into the thread.

Cheeky bleeder!! I was born and bred in Rugby, but I had sensible parents who used to go to the City in the '30's

Is it to keep your mothers and sisters safe?
You must have the strictest safety group in the country. What did Wasps get?
What’s the point of a ground that ‘holds’ 32609 if you can’t even get close to that?
Click to expand...

We do have the strictest safety group in Europe.

We have blocks in our stadium that are exclusively for over 18s as they won't allow children in.

We have an stand which holds nearly 7000 people but can currently seat 4500 due to segregation both in the stand and concourse.

We've 'sold out' 5/6 times in the past 6 months and have had as many as 5000 empty seats in those matches.

It was metaphorical.

Leicester were a team i would see on Central Soccer Sunday when they showed Div2 matches, and on the ITV Central highlights shows. But at that time they didn't feature as rivals in my eyes (bearing in mind i was only in my early teens).

I do recall a Leicester vs Derby cup match from around that era. It might have been League Cup as i'm sure it was two legs. Cracking atmosphere at the Baseball Ground.

Their own fans say it now. It's exactly what I hope we never turn into.

It's brilliant having success but suddenly having an influx of halfhearted fans who stand in silence for 90 minutes is not as good as having a hardcore who get behind the side.

I know a Leicester fan well and he's said their matches are strange this season. Great football and runaway success but generally silent stands, people leaving very early and an influx of fans from a different demographic that you'd associate with a working class city.

Good to have you back. Great club and of course we envy your recent history. Let’s be honest we shouldn’t be breathing the same air as you guys.
If you are at the CBS arena next Sunday you will find that we are a different club to the one you will have previously experienced and we have a team we are proud of.
let’s hope we get to play you next season.
On the IQ issue is that because you are from a CV postcode? That makes sense.

I'm pretty sure I've been watching Hackney get a rise out of some of our dimmer fans for about 20 years now, I reckon he must have sex tapes of the various forum admin to stay unbanned, but the banter is fun usually. This, though, this is a war crime.

looks like they've fucked off now the wind up has failed.

I still like the old fave, to the Adams family tune,

your father is your brother,
your sister is your mother,
you all fuck one another,
the Lesta family.

Central Soccer Sunday used to always be either Leicester or Port Vale from how I remember it.

That annoying gimp Gary Newbon always sat there with a smirk on his face

Astley Fox, very small ‘hamlet’ between Fillongley and Arbury /Stockingford. The village had a bad case of Arson when someone burned the castle down a few decades ago. Looks like he’s retained the Ars part.

Didn't they invent some ultras thing because of how sterile the atmosphere was. Bovrils and blankets all over the gaff
