Whatever BBC Leicester corporately believe should reflect Leicester City's return to the Premier League, they are wrong. The creation of what is known as the Blue Army started during Alan's time as a player under Jock Wallace, and that spirit is back under the current regime. Alan is a vital link to that history, an adopted Leicester person and a perfect co-commentator. Local radio has a responsibility to reflect the hopes and fears of the community it serves, as well as informing them. Alan Young does all of this. Leicester City FC will never be as big as Manchester United, and, most fans wouldn't want it to be. It is pretentious, at worst and misguided at best for the poltics of BBC Leicester to believe that the club will be and alter their broadcasting aims to suit. We are a city in the East Midlands with a fantastic sporting history, and an inbuilt stoicism. BBC Leicester needs to reflect that, not pretend to be an offshoot of 5Live
