ramjam1884 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Anyone else stuck on the M1 feel slightly aggrieved at what were clearly foxy fans having a dig? for anyone not travelling that way - 2 bridges had banners on, first one was something like ‘ for PL football, try jct 21’ and then ‘failure since 2007’. wasnt around a the time but some mates at work have mentioned the same banner fest when we lost to Leicester years ago. Theyre still very angry at them for that... banter. but I just don’t get this one. not being funny but we’re hardly doing them any harm or threat right now so who’s rattled their cage.

DarkFruitsRam7 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Leicester are utterly irrelevant. They’re a bit like Burton in that they try and drum up rivalries with teams who couldn’t give a duck about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheltenhamRam Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 They’ve no real rivals, always tried to stoke it up between us or Forest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I found it amusing that someone could be arsed to go to that length. On the stroke of full-time “Barbara, do we still have them spare bedsheets?” Sad really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duracell Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Yeah Leicester always get really weird with us. As Burton says, they try and get a reaction out of other clubs so they can pretend they have a rivalry. They’ve even tried it on with Spurs since 15/16 season. Shows how little we care that many of our fans were happy for them when they won the Prem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I laughed as I pointed them out. Fair play, we’d do the same if the tables were turned. oh! Big shout out the the rams flags on the bridge way down the M1! I saw yer! ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Do they not try to have a beef with cov city as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenBr Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 We wouldnt do the same as them, because they are just another team to us. Despite sky sports efforts to pretend its a local Derby it isnt. Not for us at least. We didnt care when they went down to League 1 and we still dont care now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I saw them. It took them longer to do than it took me to forget about them. I think I'd rather stay home and watch telly tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsy1884 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I live in leicester and have a full set of season tickets holder in laws there is a real polarity. Some really hate Derby and evy what forest and us have. Others wish us well and wanted us to go up to have a bit more of a local rivalry again. I think generally they are a bit lonely and just want someone to play with. No more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like unpopular kids in the playground, desperate for a mate and nobody will play with them. Funny lot the foxes around me, won the league yet still crave OUR attention.

NW Leicestershire is the worst. I have always lived here and there was never a leicester fan in sight until they won the league now they are everywhere.
