Ricey Posted 9 August 2005 Share Posted 9 August 2005 I personally can't wait for the game to kick off, I've never felt this eager after a 4-1 defeat but my confidence has grown since seeing City on Saturday. It was againt teams like Stoke last seaon at home that we failed to win when really we should of, now is our chance to get things started at Walkers with a bang. Let's get behind the lads, don't boo or jeer, support them and watch them rip little Stoke to pieces! The timing of this Stoke game is perfect for us because the whole club has got over the defeat and are now feeling confident after what was a great performance.

john_lcfc Posted 9 August 2005 Share Posted 9 August 2005 i feel optimistic of a result and think it will be 1-0 to leicester. We need all to sing and get behind the lads especially kopites as the away fans cant here just a few of you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katy Posted 9 August 2005 Share Posted 9 August 2005 I think we will win but it wont be convincing but it will lift spirits. I think it will be a tighter 1-0 but it will be a win and a win is what people look for not how we played. We played Sheff Yoo off the park for long periods and still lost but people wont remember that, only the result. Come on yoooo bluuuuuuuue boyyyyyyyyzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!

Darth Fox Posted 9 August 2005 Share Posted 9 August 2005 I'm not confident to be honest. Not as negative as some of those on the phone in last night but nonetheless I reckon we may struggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 9 August 2005 Share Posted 9 August 2005 Stoke had an amazing defensive record last season and they have signed a very dangerous player in Kolar this season. I'm concerned about him and Harper on the wings, we struggled to stop Ifill on saturday and these two are as quick and tricky as he was. It's essential we win and we need to step up a gear and battle like ****. I would be tempted to play wing backs and snuff out their wingers and central midfield. I know we are playing at home, but on both occasions last season their midfielders won the battle and we can't let that happen. I think if we had Nils, Paddy and Gerrbrand in central defence. Wilcox and Maybury as wing backs and then Williams, Gudjonsson and Sylla in the centre with Momo given licence to roam then we could get some joy and snuff out their main threats. Dave Brammer was class against us last season as was that Russell chap, they need to be stopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuliasz Posted 9 August 2005 Share Posted 9 August 2005 The one thing I am praying is that the fans don't start moaning about De Vries the first mistake he makes or shot he has that doesn't go in. Please please get behind this guy and give him the confidence to do better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted 9 August 2005 Share Posted 9 August 2005 We was brilliant on saturday. I don't care what anyone says, we played well, and you could tell that the players actually cared for once. No disrespect to Stoke, but they aren't nowhere near as good as Sheffield United, we should win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wellman Posted 9 August 2005 Share Posted 9 August 2005 I can't wait for the game. We can't really afford to lose as we have Ipswich on saturday, so the boys should put in a good performance today. I've got a feeling the kop will be singing away tonight as well for some reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muz Posted 9 August 2005 Share Posted 9 August 2005 Im eager to see if we can play the same football as we did on saturday if we do we should win. But im a little worried about Harper on the wing i think he will give us alot of problems and with Sidibie upfront he's going to be a handfull , but i think we'll win 2-1.

In the end I came back to the 1-0 but Levein's team never seem to keep a clean sheet and I am sure Stoke will put Duck Less under severe pressure. At 1-1 with 15 minutes left it becomes a lottery with City worrying about what happened Saturday. Nervous end but 1-1. However, if Henderson plays I think well win 2-1.

Any deviation from Levein's formation will send out the wrong signals. We have enough to win the game tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitesh Posted 9 August 2005 Share Posted 9 August 2005 Im really looking forward to it. Get to see the new signings and i reckon that we can get a good win from tonights game. I just want to see a few goals and a good performance. And i love night games because of the atmosphere! The only nervous thing will be me driving on the motorway for the first time to get to Leicester! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted 9 August 2005 Share Posted 9 August 2005 I'm feeling apprehensive, all truth be told. Part of me says we could and should win this game, but there's a little voice telling me we could also lose. It's certainly not easy being a City fan!
