A Big Test For Me - McPake

Last updated : 13 February 2009 By Covsupport News Service
Coventry City defender James McPake is up for his first taste of FA Cup football when City travel to Blackburn Rovers tomorrow.

"It is a big step up but I've played in big games before and I'm just excited to be honest," McPake said to Sky Blue World.

"It was tough last weekend because Wolves are a good side and that was a step up in itself and I was nervous as you always are when it's your first game. But now to take on a side in the Premier League, I'm just delighted and I want to get started."

The game at Blackburn comes a week after City beat Championship leaders Wolves and the former Livingston man said: "I wouldn't change any of because it's a test for me and a test for the rest of the team. That's the way I like it so I'm really looking forward to seeing how we get on at the weekend."
