  .. Wortho game re-arranged (18/09/01)  
 

The Worthington Cup game against Leeds has had to be rearranged after Leeds manager David O'Leary threatened to send out a reserve team in protest at having to play matches so close together.

The game was due to take place on Monday October 8th after ITV again decided that they would screen the game live on their new Digital Sports Channel. O'Leary though was not having any of it and protested to the FA to switch the game to another date due to International matches being played the weekend before.

The game has now been moved to Tuesday October 9th and will NOT be shown on ITV.

Personally FFS feels that City and the FA should not have given in to Leeds. City will now lose bucketful's of cash for not having the game on TV and on a more personal level,l I won't be able to attend as I have to work on Tuesday's. Plus the fact that City may have had an even better chance of progressing had Leeds sent their reserve team.
