Leicester City produced a performance full of promise despite suffering a 2-1 friendly defeat to Sunderland at the Walkers Stadium.

They rallied well after falling behind to a Fraizer Campbell goal for the Black Cats and were level at half-time through midfielder Andy King.

Sunderland keeper Simon Mignolet made stunning saves to deny DJ Campbell and Steve Howard.

But it was a slip by City keeper Chris Weale which enabled the visitors to score what proved to be the winner as a deflected shot from Jordan Henderson spun off his hand and into the net.

    “Yes you are dead right just ignore the dipstick.

    Just a stirrer and not worth bothering about all his idiot friends that pour out of the cavity between his ears.

    I have been in for a bit of stick but hey I love it. I urinate myself laughing at the jobless fat loser and all the alias's. Get lost Fred the red, get backr to Trent-side and catch a few Roach with you retarded mates Sid and Tony. Try not to fall in (I wish) Up with our blue boys!!”

    “I am on leave Fred if you must know. Frony use pounds not dollars. Fred - Shut Up. OBAO please note for the record, I am only responding to my name being brought up.

    As for the Result and Match reports - keep it up, and by the sounds of it, only a mistake separated the two teams which could be construed as encouraging.”

    “Well, well Fred looks like you have been properly exposed this weekend. Attacking City fans who want to have intelligent discussions about the club. Time to leave the forum to City fans who support the club and want to look forward to the new season. Have you got your Boro ticket yet?”

    “Well done Fred a new low for you backing yourself up eg Sid. Thing is I have a long memory and Sid used exactly the same phrase as you did a couple of months ago to imply I was a Cov fan. I know you struggle with difficult concepts like people being foxes fans who don't live in Leicester. Sometimes people have to move for work, you know that 4 letter word that brings you out in a rash. Now today, please leave us City fans alone to discuss our club and not show up your alarming lack of knowledge.”

    “Thanks for the info guys. I thinkk we will do ok against Palace. I agree I think Paulo will start with Fryatt and big Steve.

    Good depth on the bench for City, so if all fails (which I doubt) it should be a valuable 3 away points for Leicester.

    Come on City we are right behind you.

    A true blue supporter from down under.

    “Our atention is drawn to sid- a new comer to the site. clearly sids literary skills will not qualify him for a booker prize but if he was to win an award for this week it will be for the most uncouth member of the site- thanks for your contribution Fred- sorry sid


    The details of the competition organised by Fred will be repeated in tomorrow BAWS”
