Can someone explain to me why im contemplating spending 10 pounds to watch us lose?

I'm probably going to use my refund from Tuesday to fund this one.

May as well.

I may as well punch myself in the face and put a tenner in the shredder. Effect is the same.

Live in hope eh....

This game has a Theo hat trick written all over it.

I'm just waiting for his smug text after the game ? he's already told me his scoring today and to be honest ... I think we all believe him

Ordinarily I really, really dislike it when one of our former players scores against us e.g. Matt Harold but if Theo scores against us I won't feel that at all. He seemed such a nice bloke, he always tried his best and he was disgracefully treated by some of our idiot fans and he should still be in our team. So go ahead and score Theo - but I really, really want us to win today so 2-1 will do (2 superb free kicks by Clifford).

Be interesting to see if macca, white or Akinola are involved today.

I doutbt it and I can see a defeat coming today but I really hope we can start scrapping some wins from somewhere.

Please put a smile on my face at 17:00 today. Something that I haven't experienced since Bristol Rovers at home in March. I am so concerned about our survival this year though, we cannot wait until January to strengthen, we will be too far away from anyone by then.

 

[dusterman]

Worrall always had a good and unexpected leap. I fully expect him to score a far post header.

You almost nailed that prediction within the first two minutes! Impressive...

 

[Paulie Walnuts]

ffs

 

[Bearded Shrimper]

got vision. make it worth my while Blues

 

[Strykr]

We winning yet?

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

We winning yet?

Nearly. Just had 3 crosses.

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

Fair prediction.
I am surprised people are sticking with the Elvis and Egbri right side when it doesn't work. We continue to concede lots from attacks and crosses down that side and we don't have the same threat going forward down that side. The pairing doesn't have an understanding.
Similarly Dieng in midfield? Really? How often did that work well?
Or 3 CB?
Emile on his own?

Eh!
Goal from down Elvis side?
Eh,
Dieng tired and how did 2nd goal happen?
FFS it isn't hard really, just watch the game.
