Last updated : 05 February 2016 By CNS Staff

Coventry City captain Sam Ricketts has praised former Coventry City defender and now Port Vale boss Robert Page.

Ricketts told the Coventry Telegraph at this morning's press conference: "I know Robert Page who I played with for Wales.

He was a better player than he perhaps got credit for as a centre-half.

He’s an honest character and nice to see him doing well.”

Speaking about Page's Vale side, Ricketts said: "They are an honest, hard working team who will fight and scrap for points

"They have got a few forwards who work hard and Leitch-Smith is one of them.
