With the upcoming game in mind a chap has asked Leicester fans for their memories of visiting the city ground. He intends to write three articles and this is the first

I contributed reminding them about the boost incident. :D Just thought some of you might fancy a read.

Ah, that game was amazing. Can just remember Jack Lester rising like a salmon at the back post and planting a bullet header in the top corner, sending the whole ground absolutely mental! :D

The final whistle went literally 5 seconds after they kicked off too, felt like we'd come away with a 5-0 win!

Remembering that game makes the hair on the back of my neck stand on end. I remember Walker mocking a shot going wide by doing a fake dive towards it to atogonise those of us in the Trent End... He did something resembling it trying to claim a cross which Lester headed home into an empty net and party time started.

I have a very early memory of going to Filbert Street when I was ten or eleven.

I guess it must have been the 66/67 season and we lost 2-1 I think. My first memory is of one of the Leicester goals being scored by Derek Dougan and the thing was that when the corner was taken Dougan was receiving treatment behind the goal of the pitch, anyway the ball pinged around the area a bit but all of sudden Dougan ran from behind the goal to score. Cheating git!

After the final whistle we were turning to walk out when I was hit on the head by a full can of pop thrown by a Leicester fan in the upper tier casing quite a cut. Next came the good bit ; I was teated by the St Johns ambulance who took me down the players tunnel for treatment. Being a young lad the players, from both teams to be fair, all came and had a word so I got to meet all of my Forest heroes. At the time I thought the pain was well worth it!

Can just about remember a match at Filbert St that my old man took me to. Got a feeling it was a 3-3 classic or something, and Ian Bowyer having to go in goal since keeper was injured/sent off.

Ring any bells since cannot find anything on google or have I just imagined the whole thing?!

There is a picture in the History of Nottingham Forest book of Ian Bowyer making a diving save.

I don't think you imagined that happening. lol

Like I said that sums it up for me, I couldn't care less if Leicester were in the Prem yet they wet themselves when we lose in the play-offs. Sums up the rivalry perfectly

Indeed, I was in the A-Block that day and my recollection was at least 6 bars being launched by people, some of them very close to me lol

On the subject of food throwing, several years ago someone from upper BC decided to throw some cheese slices for no good reason whatsoever, bizzare but pretty funny lol
