I remember going to Filbert Street in the late 80's. There were thousands of Forest fans herded from the train station down a wide street (Wellford Road)surrounded by factory buildings. Some Forest fans took it upon themselves to put several windows through but the police would never have been able to pick out the culprits. The atmosphere was electric and it felt like you were part of an army marching into battle. I can't remember who won the game but I do remember that we were next to their fans on the terrace and it rained coins on us for the entire duration of the game! Happy days...

Doesn't mean we hate them or there's a rivalry. I don't stretch back to the mid eighties in terms of age, but have been on terraces all over the country following the Reds, as I said above, some of our fans do treat Leicester a little differently, in my experience I would say the majority do not. C'est la vie. For someone who'd rather talk to a "proper" football fan, you spend an awful lot of time on here :) I’m not denying games can be highly charged, they have been for us recently again, ooh, Sheffield United, Bristol City and all manner of teams.

No fighting at rugby? Lady on Blue Army must have missed the recent Hull derby in rugby league......(granted it was the exception, but it still happened). 2. Fox 4 life; you are basing your arguement on a TV highlights show from the 80's and a bloke you remember talking to? I hope that if you've ever heard us sing "There's only one decent Lester" that you don't think it's about your team......... 3. I've never understood a word Smoulds has said in any interview!

Or is your lack of basic grammar and punctuation down to one too many blows to the head during a heated rivalry 'debate'? fox 4 life - it’s a shame you missed so many English language classes at school to attend those ‘pre-Prem’ games you seem so fond of!

We've been a joke for the last few years, let's face it! As I said, some Forest fans probably would bait Leicester fans, I wouldn't bother personally. You're generalising rather a lot regarding one or two former colleagues - that said, I work with all sorts of different football fans and we *all* gloat/take the piss out of each other. That doesn't equate to rivalry, just general banter I think! We’re very much used to the piss being taken out of us! We’ve been a joke for the last few years, let’s face it!
