Birmingham City v Sunderland
RTE.ie – Aug 15, 2007
Bruce is likely to make just one change to the side which lost 3-2 at Stamford Bridge with Stuart Parnaby set to start in defence in place of Frank Queudrue (ankle). Damien Johnson (hamstring) Martin Taylor (torn stomach muscle) Mat Sadler (Achilles) and Rafael Schmitz (Achilles) remain sidelined. Sunderland goal hero Michael Chopra is expected to recover from a dead leg in time to push for a place in Roy Keane’s starting line-up. Chopra came off the bench to score a dramatic injury-time winner against Tottenham and could start with Keane admitting it is highly likely there will be changes.

Akshay and I landed mid-morning at Birmingham International Airport and Leela was waiting for us.

Akshay and I landed mid-morning at Birmingham International Airport and Leela was waiting for us. It was great to be reunited after so many months of sort of being a single dad. There aren’t many of us in India and Akshay and I have been the odd ones out in the family for long enough thank you!

I’m telling you it was strange driving through streets where everything is so clean and well-ordered. So far I love being over here.
