First post on here - just had to register!
I live in Leicester (originally from Rugby), but moved here as my wife is from the city. She doesn't give a monkeys about football but all her family are Leicester fans and me being the Cov season ticket holder regularly gets abuse at family gatherings!
I honestly think that Leicester fans seeing Cov in the top flight for 30+ years has made them hate us more than we hate them. (A visa versa with the Villa and Cov I think).
I actually think this city is great and very under-rated. HOWEVER - I really want Leicester to slip up, I don't think I could bare them getting into the Champions league let alone win the Prem. It's unthinkable. Yes part of me actually thinks fair play to them. But ultimately I just can't want anything other than relegation for them! And this is where the penny drops - We (Cov) are now in the same position as Leicester used to be - I really hope we don't have to watch the foxes in the top division for 30 years while we wallow down in the lower leagues.
