Leicester came to play at the Ricoh, and little Jim made his first visit of the season to witness our new style team play with skill, passion and create a succession of golden opportunities.
Well, that was the optimistic prediction.
Didn't quite turn out like that. One way traffic for much of the game, and we were lucky to escape with a point. Chef limped off early doors, to be relaced by Comedy Roadshow, back in Aidy's thoughts after being in the doghouse for a while. A cracking cross was buried neatly by Plattini to give us a totally undeserved lead.
Second half saw Leicester continue to play nice attacking football, and we ended with that dynamic "three holding player midfield" of Mrs Doyle, Clingon and Centre Circle Carsley. Needless to say, we didn't threaten much, and didn't have another shot on target.
A point we didn't deserve, good atmosphere for most of it, and onwards to the third world on Tuesday night.
