Not the time to be giving the 2nd XI game time, the first choice line up need as much time as possible to gel together. Same formation as yesterday, THB for JS (forced on us but logical anyway) RS if he can play 90mins or BBD replace CA as central striker, Fraser wide left. It's only the cup but if we could get any sort of win there against the only team currently below us, that could be a huge psychological blow for them as well as a boost for us.

Christ, I saw the thread title and thought my wife had registered so she can nag me on here as well

Manchester United next. There's 3 points in the bag straight away

Typos

Stood behind the goal at the Lazio game and despite being only half full that was exactly what happened. It'll probably take a few games of everyone getting used to their new spot but if the singing gets coordinated properly it has the potential to be one if the best ends in the PL

The new line up have to get used to each other, really can't see us getting 9 today.

Not only that, why are 6 of the 8 even bothering to join them?. Unless they're going to be all played in rotation there's 6 keepers getting paid to stay at home gardening at the weekends

You forgot rushing to get to Radio Rentals on the way down town in time to watch the Final Scores come up on the (cathode ray tube) televisions in the window

If that means he's anything like Oriol Romeu was during his time with us he'll do for me

Just watching those goals videos he sure knows how to time his runs. One of our more exciting signings of recent times.

Business sense would be if hasn't turned us down then you leave it open but when/if a replacement is found at the right price Che will find that offer quickly withdrawn

Is this an indication of a new season of total Cruyff style football?. Everyone plays everywhere so shirt numbers allocated alphabetically?

No the quote was "Adams is a striker who can't see the goal for the trees". Not the same as a transfer to Nottingham

No it's Jimmy Dickinson . Made 764 appearances for them. Presumably had no sense of smell.

Yes we did. I helped take part in a photo shoot, hanging it from the top of the Old Walls, between the swimming baths and what is now the cinema/restuarant part of West Quay, it pretty much reached the ground below. I think it was before the 2005 relegation game but not sure on that. Can't find any pics either

Pssst boys - message from Lallana and the boss ... We're putting the band back together

No. Makes great saves (although still prone to more than the odd gash) but is crap with his feet. That's why ManU let him go. The latter seems to be the priority to play in our system, otherwise we'd never have got Baz in in the first place. Which also makes me think the McCarthy has been resignrd as back up, he'll do in an emergency (as he proved) but someone else needed long term.

Just don't let him have anything to do with the half time "refreshments"

Why all the talk about Broja? He had a few good games for us then attitude completely changed as soon as we were taken over by a Serbian. No way will he be coming back (and from what I've seen since he left he's no improvement on what we already have anyway)

1st July tomorrow. New financial year. New kit/sponsor announcement(s) ??

Any trouble, kettle the away fans, shut the gates on them, stewards police and everyone else can safely stand outside the fence laughing as the police dogs are let loose to crawl in under the gates and have their fun 🤣

If I was Che's agent I'd be concerned about that bit 😂

Which one would you put your money on to score in a 1 on 1 with the keeper?. Or when unexpectedly finding the ball at his feet in the 6 yard box?

It was a lot to type, it took me a while 😂

I think we managed that ourselves without needing any help from them. First away - Everton, before they get a chance to sort themselves out First home - Fulham. Probably the quietest away fans so the new Red Wall can break theselves in gently. Xmas. - Nice and local, Brentford, Palace Chelsea, Brighton, any of those would be good Final game - Bournemouth, so we can laugh at their (unlikely) relegation
