Leicester City 2 Barnsley 0, Saturday 16 December
This was more like it. Old fashioned football weather - absolutely freezing - and a half decent match. Because it was near Xmas, and because the Tigers were playing, we parked early at Granby Halls, managing to get one of the few spaces left. This meant however that we were in our seats by 2.01pm.
I passed the time trying to call Karon on her mobile (which was switched on!)and watching Ashley stuff five donuts down his mouth.
The game started well and Leicester seemd to be playing the better football. However, a period of long balls and missed passes soon allowed Barnsley to look dangerous. But a great passing move led to a driving shot from Tiatto and Hammond was there to fire in the rebound. It was a similar picture in the second half, our goal once again coming from an excellent flowing move. Levi Porter scored his second in two and looks a real prospect for the future.
With the rugby fans already out of the car park, getting away afterwards was a doddle. So it was off to Tescos for beer and lager!
