Looking back at Leicester City’s now defunct former home Filbert Street

We continue our look at Leicester City’s former home Filbert Street with fans giving their memories on various moments at the ground…

agreed. Brings back fond memories of me as a kid going with my Dad walking to the ground so excited , then as I got older going with my mates standing in the kop. I am so glad I got to experience Filbert Street.

Throwback Thursday Week 9 Summer 2002 As we said goodbye to good old Filbert Street we moved in to the brand new Walkers Stadium (now called the King Power Stadium). Great memories Filbert Street gave us and more great memories and history made at the Walkers/King Power Stadium…..despite plenty of downers over the years. #throwbackthursday #throwback #lcfc #lcfcfamily #leicesterfans #leicestercityfc #leicestercity #leicester #kingpower #kingpowerstadium #walkersstadium #filbertstreet #oldandnew #outwiththeoldandinwiththenew #footballstadiums

Fond memories of Filbert Street. It's starting to feel like a distant memory, one we don't want to forget… it wasn't all perfect, but it was our home for a long time, and for many of us older Foxes it was magic ! pic.twitter.com/dZ3Tq4U3v6

Some social media users still had their old seats…

A mere 16 years after @LCFC left Filbert Street I have finally done something with my old seats. Well a clever carpenter did. Thanks Monty! A little bit of my football history ?⚽️? pic.twitter.com/13uP8lACDx
