County took the lead with 16 minutes on the clock. An attempted back-header by defender McAuley fell into the path of Michael Malcolm, and the striker made no mistake in forcing the ball past the helpless Henderson from around the penalty spot.

City almost hit straight back on 20 minutes. Johnson delivered a neat corner from the right, but Kisnorbo's powerful header fell just wide of Spencer's right-hand upright.
The Foxes redressed the balance on 34 minutes. Chris O'Grady turned sharply in the area and fired off a shot that Spencer was only able to palm into the path of Hammond, and the City striker couldn't miss from two yards out.

City almost took the lead with just two minutes of the half remaining, but Hammond's header from a Hughes bouncing shot hit the bar and bounced to safety.
jessel said:Kisnorbo is suspended for first two matches, more likely to be McCarthy, Maybury, Stearman, Nils- thats my predictions
joe501 said:ah yeah I thought it was McCarthy who was suspended. Would still pick Kenton, McAuley, and Gerrbrand ahead of Stearman at CB, unless he has bulked up considerably over the summer he is still far too lightweight.
