Moreton Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Described as the 'Big One' by the Leicester Mercury City will face their toughest test so far in their Pre-Season preparations as they play Birmingham City at the Walkers. I predict a 2-2 draw.
Ric Flair Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 What are the odds that Bill Anderson uses the phrase 'partizan crowd' in his report tomorrow? I think we'll lose 3-1 personally. I hope Gradel is given a chance to hurt them though, that Murphy won't know what's hit him.
C-man Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 I'm actually looking forward to it... Like Barcelona and Inter
mmarkie Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 3-1 to Leicester with DJ,Howard and Tunchev scoring for us.
Unabomber Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Haven't really got a clue how it could go, depends on the defence really because if they aren't up to it they could score alot.
mmarkie Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Haven't really got a clue how it could go, depends on the defence really because if they aren't up to it they could score alot. We've got Alex Tunchev in now so we'll be ok him and Hobbs at the back
Guest Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Big one??? But for a couple of sloppily conceded late goals and some poor misses from our strikers last season this would be a regular league fixture this season. Anyway, rant over, I'm predicting 2-2
Kilworthfox Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 "mouth watering""eagerly anticipated" Spot on mate! I will be so excited I will have to stay at home and possibly water my plants
Tommy G Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 We've got Alex Tunchev in now so we'll be ok him and Hobbs at the back Have you got shares in Tunchev?
Unabomber Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 We've got Alex Tunchev in now so we'll be ok him and Hobbs at the back Are you his agent?
C-man Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Think we'll win and several posters on this board will say we'll storm League One 'cos we beat Brum.
Tommy G Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Initially, I thought this was a thread about Sappleton's manhood
bigneville Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Couldn't care to be honest on the actual outcome of the game. A few things i'm looking forward to or getting out of the game are below. A clean sheet would be great - highly unexpected but great. A chance to see our possible starting midfield against Championship opposition to see how well they are working together, in preparation for MK Dons. A pretty good chance of seeing who Pearson has in mind for his starting line up for the opening league game. Another chance for our strikers to gain confidence, by scoring against higher level opposition Confirmation that fitness levels are at the expected level. See how the squad deal with trying to play football against a quality level of opposition. Other than the main points above, the result doesnt really mean much to myself. It's all about what we get out of the game for me.
Phlashman Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 3-2 City. People say Pre-season games don't matter but I think if we win tonight it could be a good confidence boost.

Samilktray Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Any one got an idea of attendance for this? Or more importantly how many away fans there bringing ?
Tommy G Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Any one got an idea of attendance for this?Or more importantly how many away fans there bringing ? I think someone said 5,500?
Simi Posted 29 July 2008 Posted 29 July 2008 Any one got an idea of attendance for this?Or more importantly how many away fans there bringing ? Estimated 5,500. Birmingham fans cannot afford to go to Leicester.
