Agreement with wife prevented Leicester fan from witnessing historic title push up close

Simon Lloyd

While we’re not going as far as suggesting this is grounds for divorce, this Leicester fan might well be feeling a little annoyed at his wife.

After Leicester’s latest win – at home victory against struggling Newcastle – re-established their five point lead at the Premier League summit, Kate Diamond shared the following tweet.

In fairness to Kate, a year ago Leicester were staring relegation in the eye.  The Foxes seemed destined for the Championship, and it might have seemed logical to opt out of renewing a season ticket in order to save some cash and spend a bit more time with the family.

The fact that Leicester managed to beat the drop at the tail-end of last season was miraculous enough, but nobody could have forecast what happened next.

Let’s hope for Kate’s sake that her husband doesn’t hold grudges.
