I'm deluded?
Let's look at your club, shall we?
Coventry City, the sole club of Coventry, one of the most populous cities in the country, currently drawing 13,000 for home games and only 15,000 home fans for your biggest game of the season.
You may be bottom of the table but Leicester City, drew 20,000 in League One with the country's biggest Rugby Union team on our doorstep.
really surprised more festa fans havent been here before now,it not like their boards were invaded by cov fans when they were heading for relegation..but as someone said, their disappointment this season far outweighs ours in terms of pre season optimism..where as most cov fans were expecting relegation this year,festa were saying they would be promoted by xmas....:facepalm:
We lose nearly every week, have heartbreak every week, concede in the last minute more times than I can count, have players who can barely cut it at this level, have the leagues most ignorant owners who don't give a shit and who have invested no money in players at all. It's a miracle a single person turns up.
Leicester are the exact opposite on most of those points eg. 10's of millions of pounds to spend, good players etc.
Yep you already been there done that.So you just assumed I was in the majority? I don't care that much, I do hate Peterborough more than you, but that's for personal reasons.
Haha! I was already preparing to reply to another post! :facepalm:
We're not going down is what I was trying to say. :wave:
We've down it like that before.
But fair enough, I get your point. You can't honestly say you'd turn down the chance if it was given to Coventry though...
Yep you already been there done that.
Leiecester finishing mid table is a bigger failure than Coventry getting relegated in line with pre season expectations. Ask any City fan on the first day of the season we were all saying we were in almighty struggle this season.
Ask a Leicester fan and you were going to walk the league :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
How is that working out for you?
We were supposed to be runaway leaders.
You have no idea how frustrating it is being a Leicester fan.
Barring this season, Coventry just sat in mid table.
Right now we're begging for money from any source, trying to get by on kids and free loans-so of course I wouldn't complain if someone pumped tens of millions into the club. What it does though is it makes fans of clubs like yours arrogant, complacent, and seemingly oblivious to the fact that you're only where you are because you won the Thai lottery. I think our game at the start of the season summed it all up pretty well-your squad assembled at a cost of over £10 million scraped past our team of youth players and scraps of last season's players; to think what the result would've been if we'd had spent even a quarter of your resources. Fair play to you for trying to offer a reasoned argument re rivalry, but most of us here know where we stand with other Midlands clubs and aren't that fussed either way.
Now on yer bike!
If it's so frustrating being a Leicester fan, I can assure it is 25 times worse being a cov fan! You must be so frustrated with all those millions of pounds you have available to spend...
So....what you are saying is Leicester have spent 20 million pounds or so in transfers to be exactly where they are now?Terribly. I thought we'd finish second.
I'm hardly embarrassed to have believed in my club, most neutrals held the same opinion.
Fact of the matter is. Next season we'll be playing Blackburn and you'll be playing Cheltenham.
We bought names not players.
You mean the £10million we've wasted. Having to watch 25,000 fans be subjected to mediocre performances when we've been promised promotion.
Having no stability whatsoever... every season. Not just this one. All of them.
So....what you are saying is Leicester have spent 20 million pounds or so in transfers to be exactly where they are now?
This is what I mean in Leicester's failure being worse than our own given expectations and available resources.
Great business, your owners could give SISU a run for there money with a record like that.
... from the same family?:laugh:25,000 fans All of them.
I will never see Leicester as a rival, I see Birmingham city and wolves bigger rivalries then leicester
Clarke, Banks, Shilton, Linneker??? oh yeah, I remember them - they had to f*ck off to make their name with BIG clubs
Leicester are only better of than us financially because they cheated the fecking system on administration about 8 or 9 years ago. You got away with poor financial management and administration scot free.
