"I've mentioned a number of times that I have a problem with Leicester, now you can discuss or ignore what you like. Failing that you can divert attention by saying "wasn't me guv" which hardly adds to the conversation."

And I'm pointing out that the problem you have with Leicester is about what our board did at the time and what you perceive to be an injustice against the creditors, which is just the kind of thing we had a problem with as well because we as fans didn't particularly enjoy going into administration! What you still haven't explained is why you still have a chip on your shoulder against Leicester City itself rather than the people who actually perpetrated it all - such as Peter Taylor, who none of us can stand anyway.

I don't think you'll find many of us who like the possibility of administration for anyone in football, but rather than getting all sanctimonious about it now, I'd be interested to know what you would have done as a Leicester fan at the time. Are you saying that, had you been born a Leicester fan, you would have walked away from the club in disgust or started a campaign against the spending of too much money by the board? Why don't you tell the average Leicester City fan what s/he's done wrong other than support the club? (and in many cases give money to save the club when all this happened.)

Because no matter how many times you try to spell it out, I don't see why your problem with Leicester actually makes sense or is rational.

Or it could be said that other teams couldn't match our bid rather than we out bid them. I mean did we say to the player go find out what others will give you and we will better it? Or maybe players agent said LCFC will offer this can you offer more? And the other club said we can only offer x plus , etc etc.
But onto more important things brought up by Nev.
Isn't Thomas still in Loughborough?

It is true; they're usually easy to spot by their reluctance/inability to come up with any sort of point to contradict what the other is saying.

Use of the word "fact" on its own as a sentence is usually another indicator.

Dungeon Master, again, you seem to think I have a problem with you and other fans, I don't. Now forgive me for being a football fan and bearing grudges, I don't think I'm alone and me not liking a club hardly matters when all is said and done. I'll say it again it was a little jibe that started this ball rolling.

I'd have felt the same as most fans I'm sure but don't think I'd hide behind saying it wasn't me that ripped off creditors. Yours is the first thing resembling an admission that the club did wrong! Why do I have to tell fans that they've done wrong when they haven't?

I'm ashamed of things my club has done, in fact one thing was the racist abuse of your fans by ours during past games. Possibly more to be ashamed of as it was something fans (albeit a minority) did rather than the club. I have no problem admitting a fault.

"Or it could be said that other teams couldn't match our bid rather than we out bid them" erm, could you explain what the difference is?

They couldn't match your bid = you outbid them. Doesn't it?

Well, the club did wrong - depending on what your definition of the club is.

The entity of Leicester City didn't - Leicester City being an idea with no power to do right or wrong, just to be a name for a football team in Leicester.
The fans didn't - beyond letting the spending at the time happen, and I challenge any set of fans not to have done the same at the time.
The current owners certainly didn't.

This is what I'm saying: That the ones who did wrong were the people who used to be involved with the club, the ones in charge at the time. If you want to be angry with them, fine. Frankly, they should live with the decisions they made and they deserve it. But my point is that against the Leicester fans on here is only attacking those who don't deserve it. I'm sure I speak for Leicester City the entity when I request that you might have a think about it and drop the grudge.

As for racist chanting against our fans from your fans, I don't think we have that much of a moral high ground. We have a Japanese player who we consistently chant things to that is technically insulting.

I disagree - I'd pay £6,000,000 for Carlton Cole!

The thing is DM, it's just banter and I know the fans did nothing wrong. That doesn't stop Derby fans being abused for giving away free tickets and signing Burton cast-offs, Forest for having pink seats in the stand, Leicester for their dodgy financial history (and trying to get into a menage-a-trois with Derby and Forest but having to settle for Coventry), etc.

Again, it was an off the cuff comment which was reacted to before people got personal so I answered.

Well said Lloydypoos. Very diplomatic, and, I have to say very eloquently put...

Fair enough. I've just seen too many times comments like that (not always from you or anything, but like that) which suggest personal guilt or criminality of Leicester fans. I also get the impression that the media view of Leicester holds that to be true (that we're all immoral). Whenever we get mentioned in the media at the moment it's "Big-spending Leicester City" and how rubbish and fickle our fans are. So perhaps similarly I should be having this argument/debate with the Daily Mirror and the turncoat Steve Claridge rather than you.

As for us trying to get into a menage-a-trois with you and Derby... Have you seen Coventry recently!? Who'd want to settle for that?

Can't blame you, and when I say you I mean you personally.

We met in a secluded field, the sun nearly kissing the evening horizon. The warm breeze was full of that earthy, musky scent that only those fortunate enough to live outside the urban rat race know, and a quiet whispering of leaves in the weeping willow overhead added the final touch to the most romantic scene.

We lay there, both naked. I knew I had to have her, and have her now. Without a word being spoken, I moved to a position of dominance. I could feel instantly that this was what she was waiting for as she frantically thrust her pelvis at my approaching organ. I moved slowly at first, inch by inch, until I was fully inside her. Then as the tension rose, we threw caution to the wind and abandoned ourselves to
the moment. Although inexperienced, she approached every change of position with enthusiasm, moaning with despair every time I withdrew to prevent myself ending it all too soon. As the sexual tension heightened towards the inevitable mind blowing climax, it was all I could do to hold out any longer. Finally, the moment we had been building up to was upon us, and passed all too quickly.

Breathlessly we rolled together in the now damp grass. As the last deep orange glow of the long setting sun melted into the darkness of approaching night, we lay there still entwined in an amorous embrace. I kissed her long and lovingly, and whispered reassuringly how good she had been.

She tenderly and sensuously licked my inner ear then whispered,

‘Baaa’ and rejoined the flock.

And to think that Charles Dickens is to blame for all this....
