    Honestly, I'm just excited about us playing Leicester. It'll be fun. Have we ever played them before (competitively or not)?

    It is beyond ridiculous for folk moaning about it, playing Liverpool in Dublin was fantastic a few years ago and so will this for playing Barca.
    Exactly mate :50:

    Well the monkeys in charge of the spkfplfplfplsplsplfplfplsplfplfpls are not going to change the start date of our league to help scottish clubs in europe then these sort of games are the next best thing.

    Play half the first 11 and then during the 2nd half make 110 subs with guys we wont see for the rest of the season will see us storm the CL.:50:

    Same man.
    In my mind (not always right) I still chalk him down to one of those players we never utilised properly.
    Gravesen, crosas, scepovic, Rasmussen etc

    Same :(

    Ledley, Crosas, Ki.

    Given time, what a midfield that would have been!

    We played Leicester at Filbert Street in 2002. Monday night game, two days after we clinched the league and week after Queen Mum had died. Superb travelling support, boxing before the game was immense.
