I assume that you will not be taking the mother in law to the match then Newts. I've still got mine here, and I can't get to the match as I live near Bordeaux. Prediction 1-1, and for 2007, similar to 2006, a triumph of hope over expectation.

Re: Sunderland Pre Match Thread

1. we'll win 2-0
2. everybody will be feeling optimisitic for another few days
3. Williams will be a class act
4. Elvis will be able to finish
5. Tiatto will be immense
6. Fryatt will give a shit

and then:
1. We'll lose our next game with a shocking performance.
2. the whole team will be a bag of wank - tiatto headless, fryatt lazy etc etc...
3. kelly will say "we'll have to work hard on the training ground" and "we'll have a look over the video in the next few days"

and we'll realise that we are indeed "CACK"

morning everyone!

Unfortunately she only speaks French. I find the best way is to keep out of her way. If she enters the room, I find an excuse to go somewhere else. This internet thing is a god-send.

Sunderland are in a right mess with injuries - they have only got two first-team defenders available according to this article.

Six Changes For Sunderland Encounter

Leicester City boss Rob Kelly has made six changes to the side that went down at Southampton for the New Year's Day clash against Sunderland.

In come Richard Stearman, Paddy McCarthy, Darren Kenton, James Wesolowski, Chris O'Grady and Matty Fryatt for Alan Maybury, Gareth McAuley, Nisse Johansson, Danny Tiatto, Iain Hume and Elvis Hammond.

Hume, Maybury and Tiatto drop to the bench while Hammond, Johansson and McAuley have failed to make the 16.

Paul Henderson continues in goal, with a back four of Stearman, McCarthy, Patrick Kisnorbo and Kenton playing in front of him.

Stephen Hughes, Wesolowski, Gareth Williams and Levi Porter line up in midfield from right to left, with Fryatt and O'Grady named in attack.

O'Grady makes his first start since City's trip to St Andrew's to take on Birmingham at the end of September, while Kenton comes in following a six week spell on the sidelines with a calf problem.

Danny Cadamarteri, who recently signed for the Foxes until the end of the season, is included on the bench for the first time.

Andy Welsh, who yesterday returned to Sunderland following a loan spell with the Foxes, has been named as a substitute for the visitors.

City: Henderson, Stearman, McCarthy, Kisnorbo, Kenton, Hughes, Wesolowski, Williams, Porter, O'Grady, Fryatt.
Subs: Logan, Maybury, Tiatto, Hume, Cadamarteri.

Sunderland: Ward, Whitehead, Brown, Varga, Nyatanga, Elliott, Miller, Hysen, Wallace, Yorke, Connelly.
Subs: Murphy, Welsh, Leadbitter, Hartley, Fulop.
