About as good as it gets!
No question of fielding a weakened team - all our teams are weakened teams , by definition. Kelly knows that he is under severe pressure - Fulham are a very beatable side away in the Cup and most Championship sides would fancy a crack at them at home. So let's not here about 'no expectations' etc.
Four Changes For Cup Clash
Rob Kelly has made four changes to his starting line up for the FA Cup third round clash against Fulham at the Walkers Stadium.
In come Gareth McAuley, Alan Maybury, Danny Tiatto and Iain Hume for Richard Stearman, Darren Kenton, James Wesolowski and Chris O'Grady.
Paul Henderson continues in goal, with a back four of McAuley, Patrick Kisnorbo, Paddy McCarthy and Maybury playing in front of him from right to left.
Stephen Hughes, Gareth Williams, Tiatto and Levi Porter make up the Leicester midfield, with Matty Fryatt and Iain Hume starting the game in attack.
Young striker Louis Dodds, who recently returned to the club following a successful loan spell with Northwich Victoria, is named on the bench.
Former Italian international Vicenzo Montella, who signed on loan from Roma on Thursday, makes the bench for the visitors.
City: Henderson, McAuley, Kisnorbo, McCarthy ©, Maybury, Hughes, Tiatto, Williams, Porter, Hume, Fryatt.
Subs: Logan, Stearman, Wesolowski, Cadamarteri, Dodds.
Fulham: Lastuvka, Rosenior, Pearce, Bocanegra, Omozusi, Routledge, Brown ©, Volz, Radzinski, Helguson, McBride.
Subs: Montella, Warner, Runstrom, John, McBride.

I can already hear the 5.30 routine of ' we will be working hard on the training ground to put things right' and ' they were a bit too good for us' followed by ' i can't complain they gave me absolutely everything '.
where is Weso?
appears on page 2 of his book of excuses
My vcash is on Fulham, so our chances have just improved somewhat
just emptied my account on a fulham win.
When do you think the first fulham goal will sail in? 9 mins I say
More like 9 secs:icon_lol: .
I expect it to be boring as feck with Fulham scoring within the last 10 mins of the first half. With the crowd on his back RK will suddenly wake up and realize that playing 8-1-1 dosent win you football games. Tiatto will be sent off and Fulham will pop in a couple more after kelly tells his players that you are allowed to cross the half way line.
Will we get a shot on goal?
