Sounds like your spirit has been broken my friend. :(
 
DLA those ****ers need to try alot harder because that was pathetic, we ran them all over town. I agree abut safe standing though, and I was at Hillsbrough sadly. I will never forget, trust me I've tried but it was those evil fences not standing up.
 
If your a fester fan, anything other than a graveyard is bound to be atmospheric to them. They have always had crap support and no firm to speak about
 
Apparently the powers that be at Leicester got 22 or so complaints that the "Fosse boys" were making too much noise and have asked to them to quiet down or risk being thrown out! :D

You can't blame the fans for trying but their club seems almost as batty as ours on occasion.

Foxes fans' loud support for the noisy Fosse Boys
By Peter Warzynski

Foxes fans have backed a group of supporters who fell foul of the club when they tried to boost the atmosphere at the Walkers Stadium.

The Fosse Boys, a group of about 50 fans, sang, chanted, waved flags and paraded banners from a section of the Kop at Leicester City's first home game of the season against Middlesbrough.

But they may have to tone down their support, or face being banned from the ground.

Hundreds of Leicester City fans have now shown their support for the group.

The club said health and safety regulations meant they must sit down during matches.

Officials also said spectators had complained about their vocal antics.

However, a club spokesman yesterday said they have no objections to the 50-strong group making a noise, as long as they are sitting down.

But Fosse Boys member Dominic Manning said: "We think their controlling of spectator enjoyment is overzealous.

"They are creating problems where they don't exist. Part of supporting your club sometimes involves getting out of your seat.

"We consider our support to be conducted in a sensible and positive manner."

More than 20 people left messages on the Mercury's website yesterday backing the band of diehard fans.

Steve, of Blaby, said: "Unbelievable. The graveyard that is the Walkers Stadium on match days needs this initiative as the club have not done anything themselves."

Rick, of Nottingham, said: "I'm a Forest fan but I'm fully behind the Fosse Boys. A loud and vibrant atmosphere is best for both sets of fans and best for the game in general."

Despite the strong backing from other supporters, some spectators say their enjoyment of the game should not be marred by other fans.

Colin, of Leicester, said: "I reserve the right to do exactly what I want in my seat, so long as it doesn't spoil the enjoyment of others.

"If that means sitting quietly concentrating on the game, no-one has the right to criticise me." A Facebook group called Support the Fosse Boys has been set up to rally fans.

The page has more than 200 members, who say they will not be subdued by the club.

Supporter Gareth Jamie Lloyd wrote: "I think it is disgusting the club are trying to ban them. I implore people to move over to them on Saturday to join in with them."

Leicester City Football Club failed to provide a statement in time for going to press.



I like how the're actively trying to prevent any atmos at the walkers :)
 
Sounds like the sheep's 'Barmy Army'. Difficult to say that without laughing..
