Name the player

[Steven]

Guess which player will do the interview which says "We will be working hard on the training ground to put things right" before the Coventry match.

 

[Durham Fox]

Dublin, desperate times require senior players.

Guess who will be at the half term signing session on Friday?? Usually players who are in the dog house...

Maybury?
Williams?

 

[Leesoh]

Are they not re-signing Stewart, for this, he was quite good at it.

 

[Polar Bear]

Gotta be Stearman - bright young hope, new contract. And maybe Hammond, he seems to be quite popular with the younger support i.e. that mascot who came up from Burnham-on-Sea, "thinks Leicester will win 2-1" - well, he got one part right.

BTW, does anyone understand what the reference to "anti-racist activities" was about? I thought they had rounded up some fascists and were going to give them a kicking in the centre circle. Instead we got a 7-a-side kids' game, which didn't look very multi-ethnic from my seat! I also don't understand what they were collecting money for...

He was the man I voted for. I think you are right, "A fresh start" indeed. :icon_roll

Fresh Start

Stephen Hughes believes City must pick themselves up, dust themselves down and start all over again against Coventry City on Sunday.

The 22-year-old midfielder could not his disappointment following their midweek defeat at the hands of Burnley.

But the former Rangers man says there is no time to dwell ahead of the club's crucial Midlands showdown with the Sky Blues at the Walkers Stadium.

He said: "We just didn't play well enough on Tuesday and it was the same old story.

"Since I arrived in January there have been so many highs and lows but one thing the players haven't been guilty of is getting carried away after one or two decent results.

"The Watford win was a good result but it certainly didn't mean that we had turned the corner.

"We know that we need to put four or five wins in a row together before we can start talking about turning the corner and moving up the table."

Paddy McCarthy, Elvis Hammond and Dion Dublin all went close against the Clarets but former City striker Ade Akinbiyi's second half strike proved to be the difference between the two sides.

"Everyone in the dressing room knows, and no disrespect is meant to Burnley, that we should be getting a positive result at home in front of our own fans against a team like them," added Hughes.

"The fans have every right to be disappointed but we must just pick ourselves up and concentrate on the next match.

"There are always highs and lows in football but we just seem to be having our fair share of lows at this moment in time."

The Foxes are now focused on picking up three points against Micky Adams' men on Sunday.

"It's a massive game for us," he said. "We definitely need to get the three points because nothing else will be good enough.

"The fans have been magnificent so far this season and we just need them to remain firmly behind us.

"I know they want us to kick on and we remain convinced that we can do just that despite our indifferent form so far."

It's the national anti racism week, it happens every season.

I also don't understand what they were collecting money for...

The Asian earthquake appeal. The people collecting the money made it obvious what it was for, and it was publicised before the match.
