Review:
This match was played after the previous game was abandoned due to Leicester player Clive Clarke collapsing at half-time. We were winning 1-0 on that occasion and Leicester allowed us to score direct from tonight's kick-off, with goalkeeper Paul Smith taking the ball down the pitch and scoring into an empty net.
