Christian Fuchs has good reason to be thankful for Leicester City's great escape of 2015. A decade later, the Austrian is fighting for survival – but to stay in the Football League. Fuchs took charge of Newport County last November, with the Exiles four points adrift at the foot of the League Two table. Winless in his first seven games in charge, Newport were still there at Christmas but have since clawed their way out of the relegation zone. County are 22nd in League Two, one point clear of the bottom two of Barrow and Harrogate Town, who Fuchs' side host on Saturday.
