telegram payer.I've seen him a few times this season so he definitely still goes
It’s a close call and I don’t do every away these days but from my own experience I think Leicester away when Bernardo scored in a 1-0 win in September 2021 just about edged yesterday. It genuinely was non-stop all afternoon that day, whereas yesterday had a quiet spell in the second half.Best away end since covid imo
Mate, working and living in Leicester like I do, to a man they all say the same thing.It’s a close call and I don’t do every away these days but from my own experience I think Leicester away when Bernardo scored in a 1-0 win in September 2021 just about edged yesterday. It genuinely was non-stop all afternoon that day, whereas yesterday had a quiet spell in the second half.
But it’s no coincidence that both games were at Leicester. It’s the best ground in the league for getting an atmosphere going. I probably try 10 times harder at home games to get an atmosphere going than I had to yesterday and that’s in SS1 Block 115 where plenty do join in but all too often the sound doesn’t travel beyond more than a few blocks. Yesterday I was starting songs off and literally within 2-3 seconds the whole away end were at it. Of course, it helps that there were so many like-minded fans prepared to join in but the single tier design of the whole stadium makes it conducive to getting an atmosphere going. As good as we were yesterday, for that reason it surprises me a little that a lot of Leicester fans think we’re the best away fans at their ground as surely other fanbases are equally loud when they go there? Or maybe not?
I’ll be seriously gutted if Leicester go down as it the best away day of the lot for me.
