Pun free Leicester thread

Post by bwfcdan94 » Thu Dec 26, 2013 5:22 pm

So Leicester on Sunday who's in. I heard today that the floodlight were broken from 3:05 today right until 3:50pm during the game between Leicester and Reading and that it was therefore nearly called off! Fingers crossed we can get something (and hope the flood lights wont go out) and I will be held completely responsible having set up this thread if we lose.
The above post is complete bollox/garbage/nonsense, please point this out to me at any and every occasion possible.

I guess with Danns and McNaughton going back the manager will have Leicester pick from.

I thought it said fun free.

Then I realised how much the truth hurts.

I was in Portugal at a mate's, and getting on everybody's nerves by listening to Bolton play Leicester. It was a crazy game with two of ours sent off by Mike Riley in the first half. We were two down and......(rather than rely on memory, I dug it out) it was frantic stuff. A lot of you will remember it well, some may not, but here's the reports which doesn't tell the half of it.
Fxcking Dennis Wise squaring up to anybody...I ask you..

^ If memory serves that was the game where the two managers were hooked up to heart monitors during the game as an experiment for some TV program. I remember the game well! Frantic stuff.

It says that Ricketts equalised with a header..

For some reason, I remember it being a little cheeky back heel

That was the day I decided that the ref's were not just not fond of Bolton, but positively biased (well, post Barry Knight, that is).

Any respect I had for Harry Bassett went out of the window too.

I'd never had any respect for Robbie Savage, little shit, but he was sent on the pitch that day to wind people up & our players were daft enough to take the bait. He was substituted after about 25min, job done, if I recall.

Utterly disgraceful game.

I can remember singing "Nine men, we only need nine men" at the end to a shell shocked Leicester end. One of the most exciting matches I've ever been to.
