  • Hello Football Friends,

    Welcome to the countdown of the seven best players to play for the FOXES. In recent history, Leicester has been lucky, being a foxes supporter has been a dream. The premier league win in 2016 was a shock no-one saw coming. It was truly remarkable to watch such an underdog challenge and defeat the big-boys of the English top-flight. A few of the boys in that title-winning team made this list of LCFC's greatest players.

  • Hello Football Friends, 

    Manchester is well and truly in the football area. 

    Manchester City and Manchester United are dominating the football and the football headlines in the UK ATM. 

    So The Football Hour decided to hire its own chief Manchester football reporter, his name is Dave ‘Dya Know What I mean. Last week was a pilot run and it was a bit tragic. So I've done some tweaking to the feature and this week, we are flying. This is The Football Hour getting to know Dave ‘Dya Know What I Mean'

    Hope you enjoy the new feature, 

    Live Forever, 

    Big Love,

    Alex
