The vacuum created by the summer break can leave us longing for a trip to the King Power Stadium to see our lads take the field. While the World Cup brings some welcome relief, it's not the same as watching the team you love up close and personal.
Drinking a quiet coffee in the city centre watching the good people of Leicester go by, I got to thinking about our magical 2013-14 campaign, and some of the highlights from our best season in years.
A flash of brilliance! Jamie Vardy's long run from just inside the Millwall half and into the penalty area was a personal favourite.
Lions keeper David Forde was left red-faced as Vards hammered the ball between his flailing legs and into the net.
Vardy was 'having a party'. I lost count of how many penalties he won with his pacy attacks.
Of course, David Nugent was never shy in grabbing hold of the ball to take the spot-kick, and more often than not converted without a hitch.
Kasper Schmeichel's goal that was that wasn't ... who remembers that? Was it over the line or not? I know 'officially' it was given to Chris Wood, but it looked in to me.
I often sit behind Schmeichel at matches, and you can see him living every kick win lose or draw. His reaction to 'scoring' that night was priceless.
For a display of fine football, our performance at Birmingham would take some beating. Nugent's pass to Lloyd Dyer for the opener split the Blues defence clean in two and, despite being the visitors, our peerless pairing of Danny Drinkwater and Matty James controlled the game with imperious authority.
Vardy strode into the box and doubled the lead with a low driven rocket into the far corner. It was a record-breaking eighth league win in a row, and an evening to make all others realise we were the real deal.
City 4-1 Derby. Ritchie De, Nugent (2) and Vardy – wallop! I don't think we realised at the time just what a fantastic performance that was.
Derby produced top-two form under Steve McClaren, and we took them apart that evening in ruthless fashion.
'That' goal from Wood against Burnley at Turf Moor wasn't too shabby either. I can remember being behind the goal to the right... long ball from Anthony Knockaert, Wood, one touch, bang. Like a laser-guided missile.
What a goal and what a time to score it. Our main rivals for the title beaten on their own ground!
The squirrel at Loftus Road has to be one of the biggest stand out memories! Okay, I know it wasn't strictly football, but watching the little pest hopping around while a hapless referee looked on and did nothing was hilarious.
Nuge showed some pretty nifty moves to deal with the little rodent, and taking all three points home from Loftus Road against QPR wasn't too bad either.
A clinical finish from Vardy to give us the lead, followed by a textbook away day performance to ensure the victory.
So many wonderful memories, and we all have our personal favourites. Last season was packed with so many, far too many to mention them all here.
Let's hope for a season full of great new memories in the Premier League next time out.
