davieG Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 Craig Levein has named a strong squad for City's final friendly fixture of the pres-season campaign against Oxford United on Saturday (3pm). And the good news is that new signing Peter Gilbert is included in the travelling party after the young defender was forced to limp out of Wednesday night's defeat at Rushden with a thigh problem. Rab Douglas (pictured) also returns to the squad following a foot problem, but Stephen Hughes (ankle) and David Connolly (groin) are not risked. Foxes fans not making the trip to the Kassam Stadium will be able to follow the game exclusively live on Leicester City World. Our coverage of the fixture starts at 2:55pm, with commentary coming from BBC Radio Leicester's very own John Sinclair. Not got World? Sign up today from just £2.99! Click here for further details.

CITY SQUAD: Douglas, Maybury, McCarthy, Williams, Sylla, Dublin, de Vries, Tiatto, Gilbert, Henderson, Wilcox, Johansson, Gudjonsson, Stearman, Wright, Sheehan, Gerrbrand, O'Grady, Muggleton
Parsons Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 has muggelton been in the first team before? anyone know if he is any good and what position does he play?
PRIOR09 Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 No Porter! Thats disappointing because he is better than O'Grady and is probably our fastest player. Also he has got 1 hell of a shot on him.
filbertway Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 I thought o grady was better than porter. Is porter the short one?
TornadoShaunUK Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 I thought o grady was better than porter. Is porter the short one? 146590[/snapback] short is probably an understatement
step Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 Ogrady will never make it, he was to slow, mentaly and physically. Once porter got his first touch he was up for it, I liked him.

PRIOR09 Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 I know this isnt much to do with the match, but people would probably moan at me if i started a new thread. But who is the best out of O'Grady + Porter + Dodds + Graham + Muggleton? Rank them in order, i think it is like this 1, Porter 2, Muggleton 3, O'Grady 4, Dodds 5, Graham What does everyone else think?
Louise Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 has muggelton been in the first team before?anyone know if he is any good and what position does he play? 146560[/snapback] Ricky Muggleton was involved in the first team last pre-season as well (well, he played against Kettering), he's a striker with quite a good record in the academy games.
Hitesh Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 On FM2005, Porter is the best out of the lot then i would say Graham and Dodds. However, that is a game and probably doesnt mean a great deal. I have only seen O'Grady and Porter so i cant really comment, but from what i have read, Porter seams more promising.
Bluefoxtim Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 has any one got a link for the commentary like we sometimes have?

Hazza Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 Both Muggleton and Dodds went to my college, i don't think Dodds could play for the school team but Muggleton always seemed to be on the scoresheet. I probably should have watched a few in hindsight, although it's nowhere near the standard that they will hopefully reach. I was in the same junior side as Dodds aswell for about 4 years and, without making a big deal out of it because it was at a low level, he really was class then. Not seen enough of all of them to comment who's better though.
Hitesh Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 City: Douglas, Maybury, Gilbert, Gudjonsson, McCarthy, Johansson, Sylla, Williams, Dublin, de Vries, Wilcox. Subs: Gerrbrand, Henderson, Tiatto, Sheehan, Stearman, Wright, O'Grady, Muggleton. Oxford: Turley, Manselll, Robinson, Quinn, Willmott, Ashton, Hackett, Bradbury, Davies, Hargreaves, Hughes. Subs: Basham, Weedon, Molyneaux, Roget, Oldfield, Stirling, Franklyn, Brooks, McCleary, Morgan.
Hitesh Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 Anything happened? 146699[/snapback] Craig David had a chance. Wilcox had a slight knock but is back on. Banbury had a chance for U's but Rab saved i think. We have had a few corners. Nothing much though.
Bluefoxtim Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 can someone give us a link from leicester city world please? Im assuming thats where you are listening from? Got it now
Hitesh Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 Sylla just had a chance. Sounded like it was a good chance and good build up. A diving header was stopped at the foot of the near post.
Anish Posted 30 July 2005 Posted 30 July 2005 I'm switching off. Can't be arsed with this. Terrible commentary and by the sounds of it a poor game.
