Leicester Fosse (1884-1919)
“Leicester Fosse”时期（1884年-1919年）

The club was founded in 1884 as Leicester Fosse because it played on a field by the Fosse Road. Before moving to Filbert Street in 1891, the club played at five different grounds. The club joined the Football Association in 1890. It joined in the Midland League in 1891, and after finishing second was elected to the Division Two of the Football League in 1894. The first ever league game was a 4–3 defeat at Grimsby, but a week later at Filbert Street the club recorded its first league win against Rotherham. The club's largest win to date, 13–0 against Notts Olympic in a FA Cup qualifying game was also recorded in that season.
俱乐部以“Leicester Fosse”的名义成立于1884年，这个名字的由来是当时球队征战的球场临近名为Fosse的马路。辗转五个球场之后，球队终于在1891年将主场定在榛子街。
Leicester Fosse于1890年加入了英足总；1891年球队加入了中部地区联赛，并于1894年以第二名的成绩入选全国的第二级别联赛。
全国联赛首战，球队在格里姆斯比遭遇了3-4的惜败，不过一周之后球队就在榛子街对阵Rotherham时迎来了联赛首胜。就在这个赛季，球队创造了队史至今最大比分的胜利，即英足总杯资格赛13-0狂胜Notts Olympic一战。

In 1904, the club successfully re-applied for membership of the Football League. In 1908 the club finished as Second Division runners-up and reached the First Division, but went back down again after just one season. In 1909, the club recorded its worst ever defeat, a 12–0 drubbing against Nottingham Forest.
1904年，球队惊险完成保级。（注：这句是意译，其实当年莱斯特是第二级别联赛最后一名，但通过Re-election即类似于升降级附加赛的机制得以保级，反倒是当年的倒数第三保级失败，失去了全国联赛的参赛资格） 1908年，球队以第二名的好成绩成功升级，但不幸地遭遇一季游。1909年球队0-12完败于诺丁汉森林，这也是队史至今的最大比分失利。

In 1925, the club were champions of Division Two under the management of Peter Hodge. Hodge's signings included Arthur Chandler, one of City's most famous players from this period, scoring a club record 273 goals between 1923 and 1935 and Adam Black, who has the club record for league appearances, 528. In 1929, the club recorded its highest ever finish in the Football League, finishing second to Sheffield Wednesday. The club's highest every attendance was in 1928, 47,298 against Tottenham Hotspur into the FA Cup Fifth Round. The 1930s were less successful, with the club being relegated in 1935, although finishing first in Division Two in 1937, only to be relegated from Division One again in 1939. In 1939, the Football League was suspended due to the war, and just like in 1915–1919, City were forced along with other clubs to play in regional leagues.
1925年，在Peter Hodge的执教下，莱斯特城获得了第二级别联赛冠军。在他的时代，球队签下了Arthur Chandler和Adam Black：Chandler是这一时期莱斯特城最著名的球员之一，1923年到1935年，他打进273球，创下俱乐部记录；而Black则为俱乐部出场528次，创队史之最。
1929年，俱乐部走上了至今为止的历史巅峰，荣获第一级别联赛第二名，仅次于谢菲尔德星期三。1928年英足总杯第五轮对阵托特纳姆热刺时，莱斯特城迎来了史上最高上座率——47298人。
20世纪的30年代，莱斯特城走了下坡路。1935年俱乐部惨遭降级，尽管1937年获得第二级别联赛冠军强势回归，却只能在1939年再度降级。那一年联赛也再度搁置。莱斯特城和其他球队一样，又一次被迫参加地区联赛。
