If you're a Leicester fan and remember the Jock Wallace era, then you'll understand the description. Great footage Mark and good quality. Thanks for the upload.

Frank O'Farrell signed Bobby Kellard from Bristol City and he was really tough midfield player who could pass the ball too.Then Frank left to manage Man United and Jimmy Bloomfield came to manage us from Orient and first thing he did was to get rid of Kellard to Crystal Palace. I could never understand that because Kellard was the leader on the pitch that we lacked.

Some of my favourites here: Bobby Kellard, Rodney Fern, John Farrington, Len Glover, Graham Cross, Steve Whitworth & David Nish. This must have been the old Second Division winning season 1970/71.

Love the sound at 3:17... I thought some ambient house track was about to start.

Gives an impression of fit flyers for players, definately useful on the pitch.

I get the bit with the hill but otherwise what dreadful training conditions. I think things have changed somewhat.

All we see is 90 mins on the pitch. What the players go through in a week is hurrendous

Not in the second part as too young. Try on 45 or so seconds, dark shorts and white shirt. See link under Jock Wallace. Trust me!! www.leicestermercury.co.uk/sport/football/gallery/leicester-city-fc-managers-through-1824326
