davieG Posted 27 July 2005 Share Posted 27 July 2005 Boss On Injury Latest David ConnollyCraig Levein today revealed some positive news on the injury front as his squad continue to prepare for the Championship kick-off against Sheffield United on August 6. The City boss was without a number of key first team players for his side's friendly clash against Inter Milan at the Walkers Stadium on Monday night. But Levein is confident that he will have the majority of his players fit and available once again for Leicester's final pre-season friendly game against Oxford United on Saturday afternoon. He said: "David Connolly has been rested of late, mainly because of a concern over a groin strain. But I'd imagine he will play against Oxford United on Saturday. "Rab Douglas has had an injection in his foot, but I am also confident that he will be fit for Saturday. "Stephen Hughes did some ball work on Tuesday morning, but he is still a little bit sore. I had hoped he would play against Rushden but it doesn't look like that is going to be possible. He is probably one for Saturday as well. "Patrick Kisnorbo is improving. We have now got to the bottom of his cartilage problem and he has had an operation. The plan is that he will be back playing in a fortnight. "Joey Gudjonsson is over in Iceland at the moment on compassionate leave and he will return on Thursday. "All in all we should have a fairly fit and healthy squad come the weekend."

Ric Flair Posted 27 July 2005 Share Posted 27 July 2005 His dad applied for the city job when Adams left. Hope it's not him, that would be terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted 27 July 2005 Share Posted 27 July 2005 Gudjon Thordarson is Notts County's manager and Joey's father, I've just had a quick look on the Notts County site and there is nothing about him being ill, this interview from him was put up there on Monday.
