Reds Captain Martin Cranie is set to face his former Club Coventry City tomorrow, as the Sky Blues arrive at Oakwell in the FA Cup 3rd Round.
The 27-year-old, who made 120 appearances for City, will come up against his former employers for the very first time tomorrow.
Speaking to our official matchday magazine, U Reds, Cranie said of his former club, "I’m not too sure how I’ll feel when the time comes to kick-off,” said Cranie. “Everybody at the Club; the Manager, staff, players and fans were brilliant with me. It was just unfortunate that we were relegated in the end. I thought we were good enough to stay up. A lot of individual mistakes cost us. We certainly had good enough players but that’s the nature of the Championship.

“It’ll be nice to see a few old faces, although there aren’t a lot of people left from when I was there. But it’s always nice to come up against your former club. A couple of the young lads that were coming through are there."
