Leicester City supporter Irene Holiday had more than one reason to celebrate her 100th birthday last Saturday.

Irene, who has been following the Foxes since the 1930s, was overjoyed to receive here telegram from the Queen at the Wood Hayes Residential Home on Hinckley Road upon reaching the remarkable milestone.

There were further celebrations later in the day when Filbert Fox and Club Ambassador Alan Birchenall popped along to say hello.

Birch said: "A few of the residents joked that she was about the only person around these days who can still remember me playing! "We had a good old sing song and everyone joined in. Irene was the life and soul of the party. We all had a great time.

"She loves the club with all her heart and it's great to know that she is still backing us after all these years."
Irene was presented with a shirt from the club on the day - signed by all the players and staff at the club.

Care home manager Lynne Horsley added: "It was great of Alan and Filbert to pop along. It certainly cheered everyone up - especially Irene!"

She didn't get a telegram from the queen!

It's okay, she got an email from the club instead, asking her to renew her season ticket as soon as possible

I doubt it. Most people would have seen it on the Official Site yesterday and therefore already have known what the story was about.

I would - I love younger women

You're just an animal, aren't you

At a guess I would say it's because this part of the forum is open to all ages. :icon_roll

I've seen worse on this part of the forum. I guess you have to be in the "inner circle" for your post to stay? :icon_wink

Perhaps you should report those posts then, as a service to the community.

Indeed. I hope I can still raise my arm if I get to be 100.

It'll be the only thing you can raise.

Can't you see Filbert pulling the string that's attached round her wrist?
