Filbo Arrives at New Home

[Blue Maniac]

the Trust wanted to show it's backing for such a fantastic model

Both of you?

Is this model supposed to be based on how Filbert Street looked in a particular year? I ask because of the standing sections and the particular advertisements the maker has chosen. Is it the early 1980s or something?

Both of you?

Why turn this thread in a dig at the Trust, just post positively about a fantastic bit of work from Micky can't you ?

:icon_lol: Bite!

I like the model, I think it's superb. I'm delighted somebody did it.

I believe this man has a disability of some kind

Lifelong obsession with that thing called Leicester City, you mean?

Guilty as charged.

I'm struggling to put a year on this picture.

I'm struggling to put a year on this picture.

It's against Man Utd with Heskey, Clarridge, Taylor and what looks like Drew(!) in the picture.

Against forest, I'm guessing 1996.

A ground the Trust could fill.

Quality model. Brings back many good memories. Muzzys goal against Spurs watching from tthe Carling stand. Julians goal against Spurs watching from the family enclosure. Ayr United in the Anglo Scottish watching from pen 3. Bobby Kellard scrapping watching whilst stood on a box in the pop.

Not sure but I'm going for Parker, Claridge, Taylor, Heskey, Grayson? And some unknown fo*est players?

 

[pork pie fox]

The Forest players look to me like Clough, Woan and Gemmill

Fantastic effort from Micky, i have followed this as a 'lurker' on Bentleys and it has also been in the matchday programme. Hats off to that man, it would be a nice gesture from the club to get him on the pitch with the Birch pre match sometime.

Great job. Being a young Leicester fan from Anglesey taking a visit to Filbo, even just the tiny old club shop, whenever we visited family was like visiting the Nou Camp for me.

 

[Mawsley]

Any truth in the rumours it's going to be used in the new Betelgeuse movie?

 

[alex]

Ahh, how brilliant!! Amazing memories. Steve Thompson's free-kick against Millwall... that's what comes back first for me.

I know it wasn't the greatest performance and we got dicked, but the character of Filbo could be seen the season we were relegated due to a 5-1/0 thumping by Man Utd. For the last 20 minutes of the game, we all knew we were sunk and down, the ground stood and everybody chanted 'Stand Up if you love Leicester'. The noise and atmosphere generated in those miserable minutes completely transcend anything I've heard at the WS/KP.
