Diary Of A Foxes Fan


Saturday 26th April 2008

8.30 Wake up. Debate with self whether to wear Leicester City shirt today. Decide against it as having hair cut and would be too itchy.

9.30 Arrive at hairdressers. Watch as my head is trussed in foil like a turkey. Read the 4-4-2 magazine I bought a couple of weeks ago. Learn about Eric Cantona and the drama and about the significance of the 1990 FA cup semi-finals. Wonder who Reading are playing today.

12.30 Call round to see if my son is awake to have a cup of tea and chat about football. No reply. Think about how important today's match is but don't let self get too optimistic for fear of later disappointment

13.30 Drive over to meet parents listening to Talk Sport to find out score in Chelsea/Man U match. 1 - 1. Take them into town to help choose a ring for my daughter's 21st birthday next week.

16.00 Talk to lover on mobile phone whilst buying a chai latte. He informs me Chelsea won 2 - 1. No news on Reading or Leicester.

16.30 Drive parents home. Hear on radio there has been a goal at The Walkers. Sheffield Wednesday 2 -1 up.

17.00 Leave parents house. Learn Leicester lost. Heart sinks. Feel anger and disappointment but no real surprise. Hear Reading drew Wigan nil nil.

18.00 Screw new coat hooks on door and do a bit of 'wenching' whilst listening to the very irritating Terry Christian and Jason Cundy on Talk Sport discussing various Premiership matches.

19.30 Discuss the football of the day with my lover whilst eating a plateful of delicious prawns rice and peas fried in sesame oil.

20.00 Further communicate with my lover listening to Rhodri Morgan in the background quizzing a 14 year old boy about football who got 9 points.

22.00 Post on blog then settle down to watch Match of the Day.

Hey areallaticfromthesouth - welcome! All lessons in football gratefully received.
I'm not sure about Hollow Way. I was a believer but have you seen how bad Leicester are at the moment? It's enough to break your heart.
Link returned.

Feed the Birds!!!

LOL You are learning. THE ARSE LOL

Next one to get to grips with is ManUre not Man Utd.

You have to admit Ian Holloway is quality when he is interviewed or on Soccer AM
