From 5000-1 Outsiders to Premier League Champions: The Complete Story of Leicester City's 140-Year Journey
On 2 May 2016, Leicester City achieved the impossible. Given 5000-1 odds to win the Premier League-odds shorter than finding Elvis alive-they defied every expectation, overcame every obstacle, and proved that miracles can happen. But the story of Leicester City FC doesn't begin or end with that magical season. It spans 140 extraordinary years of triumph, tragedy, resilience, and redemption.
The 100 Greatest Moments in Leicester City History takes you on an unforgettable journey through the club's complete story, from the founding of Leicester Fosse in 1884 to the present day. This comprehensive celebration captures every era: the FA Cup heartbreaks of the 1960s, the Martin O'Neill revolution, the Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha tragedy, the FA Cup glory, and everything in between.
Inside this book, you'll discover:
- The 2015-16 Miracle Season - Experience the complete story of how Claudio Ranieri, Jamie Vardy, Riyad Mahrez, N'Golo Kanté, and an unfashionable squad of cast-offs delivered the greatest sporting upset in history

- The Golden Era of the 1960s - When Leicester City reached three FA Cup finals, conquered Europe, and the Ice Kings played beautiful football that captivated England
- Vichai's Legacy - A moving tribute to the beloved owner whose vision transformed Leicester from a struggling Championship club into world beaters
- The Great Escapes - From avoiding Third Division relegation in 1977 to the miraculous survival of 2015 that set up the title triumph
- Leicester Legends - Gary Lineker's rise from factory worker to England hero, Arthur Chandler's 273 goals, Gordon Banks' wonder saves, and every icon who wore the royal blue
- Modern Heartbreak and Resilience - The painful relegations, Jamie Vardy's emotional departure, and the ongoing fight to return to the top
