I thought that overall it was a really good day out. The lads were lucky IMO to get a draw, and I was happy to leave with a point, despite telling my mates before the match that I wouldn't be. We started out the better side and we thoroughly deserved the goal, our best player Stearman finishing off a smart move. I thought we were going to run away with the match at this point, but soon after Stern John equalised. And Cov controlled the game from there on. Stearman, Johansson, Kisnorbo and Gerrbrand were rocks at the back, they were excellent at keeping McSheffrey, Adebola, John, Scowcroft et al at bay. A second Cov goal IMO was imminent, and it came, fortunately being ruled out for offside. I thought that Henderson had another commanding game, but despite this, I still do not trust him for corners. Half time in the concourses was mental, well played to all the City fans for really packing it out. Second half was the same as the first, with Cov dominating, and I thought chances of us sneaking away with a point were gone when Kisnorbo got sent off for a very late, rash challenge. The move that surprised me the most was to bring Hume and Fryatt off for Hughes and Elvis. I would have thought we would have gone for the win, but maybe RK was happy with the point. I only found out after the game that they both weren't 100%, so I think it could have proved to be a good decision. Elvis ran but didn't provide much else to the game. I was relieved when the final whistle went, happy we had held on to the point.
The support today was fantastic. The atmosphere could IMO have been better, but then again I was sat in a crap part of the ground, so I probably missed a lot of the noise. 5,000 City fans were electrifying, especially when the twat Wise was near.
With performances like that on the pitch and in the stands, it can only be a matter of time before the good times roll on back to this great football club of ours.
Leicester till I die.
