Bluefoxtim Posted 6 January 2006 Share Posted 6 January 2006 From OS http://www.lcfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/...~764667,00.html City legend Gary Lineker is looking forward to watching two of his former sides lock horns in the FA Cup on Sunday. Lineker, who fronted the consortium that bought his hometown club out of administration in February 2003, will be fronting the BBC television coverage of the game between Leicester City and Tottenham Hotspur at the Walkers Stadium. And the former England striker admitted that although he hoped for an upset, in Spurs the Foxes would be coming up against formidable opposition. "Both clubs are playing attractive football so it should an entertaining game - I'm excited," he told the FA.com website. "I'm still involved with Leicester and we have come through a difficult period financially where they were on the brink to an extent, I think the best we can hope for is a draw and the rewards of a replay. "Leicester will pull through because they play the game the right way, I'm hopeful that the league form will improve but this could be a welcome distraction for everyone involved at the club. "Having said that it will be tough against Tottenham because they have built up a very good squad of players and they're on form right now. Martin Jol has really turned them into a consistent team. "I grew up with The FA Cup as the big event of every season, it was the one match that everyone could watch live on TV. Of course that has changed now, but for me The FA Cup will always be special." We play attractive football? am i missing something? I wonder if they have all the leicester flags in the studio again like they did against blackburn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_wilson101 Posted 6 January 2006 Share Posted 6 January 2006 To be fair we have been creating chances and haven't been playing too badly in general - just lots of appalling defensive mistakes and no-one to put away the chances we're creating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smoffy Posted 7 January 2006 Share Posted 7 January 2006 Need a striker from somewhere, but do not know where. Please sommeone do the decent thing and get rid of Levein before it's too late annd we fall into the lower division. Who can recall the heady days of top ten finishes in the Prem and Europe and beating Man Utd at Trafford courtesy of Cottee I remember sliding the ball under Schmeicals legs, oh for the glory days again when we can all be proud not like this shower of s@!t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SystonFox Posted 8 January 2006 Share Posted 8 January 2006 i think Lineker will be wearing a City Scarf and a Spurs Scarf due to his allegiance for both sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
