Reoccuring Themes...
After looking back to last nights events it made me realise how many times we lose 1-0 at home and how few times we win 1-0 away from home.

Haven't seen one yet so here we go. Very good performance, was Lambert even on the pitch?????? Dervitte looked a good signing and Bazza is good at LB because it allows him to bomb forward.
