Steven Posted 16 May 2005 Posted 16 May 2005 Pre-Season Fixtures AnnouncedLeicester City will travel to Kettering Town, Notts County and Rushden & Diamonds during pre-season. The squad are scheduled to report back for training on Friday July 1 and will then take on Kettering at Rockingham Road on Sunday July 10, before also visiting the Magpies on Monday July 25 and Rushden two days later (Wednesday July 27). And manager Craig Levein is already looking forward to City's pre-season preparations. He said: "The pre-season helps because it is the best chance you have got to put your best team together and get to work with the players without having to worry about results. "The important thing is that, towards the end of pre-season, you are very near your strongest team and can spend a lot of time getting them ready for the season. "Then you don't need to do much, just the odd change here and there, and we haven't been able to do that since I arrived back in November." Further friendly dates will be announced over the coming days when all details have been finalised. The Championship season kicks off on Saturday August 6.
