Enjoyed this post Donnignton. Really nervous about tomorrow as I can't help but feel it's really important.

If we win, we'll really announce our return to the premier league, show we can convert performances in to points and I think we'll kick on.

Draw and we're left in limbo but lose and I think we will really start to be under pressure with the first questions asked.

As much as I don't think Stoke away is an easy game, I feel that questions will be asked if we lose.

Come on Leicester - show we're back and get that win.

Prediction. Debut for Cambiasso, DD returning for Hammond and Schlupp with a more defensive line up. Full time 1-1.

Heart says a solid 0-1 victory with Ulloa continuing his scoring form.

Come on the foxes!

Yes nicely put Donnington.

Pretty much echo what Mersey says. It is early days however a loss would leave us looking at possibly 2 points from 5 games. Tough games or not thats relegation form. Without wanting to go too luis suarez i would bite someones hand off for a point.

We have only conceded 4 goals against, well you know who.We have got two valuable points against quality teams,But and i know its not a popluar comment but i believe our real season starts tommorow.
I want a win but a point at Stoke will mena we only need another 37 points.

As for changes Ferryboy your man Nigel does not change teams often so its so i don't expect many changes so apart from DD nothing else.

I would like Vardy to start for Nug but that ain't going to happen.

be very happy driving back down the A50 with a point but you're right Merseyside, a win would really announce ourselves.

I felt before the season started that we could go to Palace at the end of the month with 0 points and it not be a surprise or a disaster so I feel we've already done well.

Just hope that people lay off the criticism if we do lose tomo. Stoke are a good side.

I remember that afternoon so well - I did cry! I'd just been made redundant, City was relegated and my father would pass away a few months later. 2008 was not a good year!
I would so so love us to beat them but I think it'll be a tough game & we'll be lucky with a point. Fingers & everything else crossed though (& I'd love to see Cambiasso start - still can't believe that!!).

Talk about things coming in 3's! Hope things are better for you now.

You're right about Cambiasso, can't believe it myself even now! There will be some scenes if he gets the winner!

I'll predict a 2-2 draw on this one.

Yes everything is great for me now, thanks. And I am so happy to be proved wrong today - fantastic massive result )

Well, as I predicted (all being at the start of the game) a more defensive lineup including DD and Cambiasso proved the magic formula to my 0-1 hope of victory.

Absolutely cracking 3 points today, even if we were outplayed in the first half.

I was worried when Hamer was starting and he did nothing to calm the nerves in the first 85 minutes although he did make a couple of cracking saves to ensure the win.

I will be pleased when Kasper is back though - hopefully sooner rather than later.

Cambiasso oozed class and his vision, passing and control helped us get back in to it second half. It was great to see him celebrating with the other players at the end - he looks like a cracking signing. I love him already.

And Ulloa - proving the doubters (I include myself in that by the way) wrong. What a great start to his prem career.

Great result with victory dug out. We'll play better than that an continue to pick up results I'm sure.

A happy fox
