Can I be the first to say that this is much better than Chippy's efforts. Gone with a 3-1 win to get us off to a good start. Spurs have bought even less players than us so we must win.

 

Much better than Trev's much better than Chippy efforts

 

I think we'll lose against Spurs. They are miles ahead of us. Our battle this season is to beat the teams in the mini-league at the bottom.

 

Just wait for the first update on the Prediction League to be late, just wait!!!

 

Well I'm away this weekend so it won't be done before Tuesday.....

 

Have to say that although this is a great match day thread I didn't rate HDQ's entry in the Headline Game - I certainly won't be voting for "That's not down to me".

 

you somehow expect this but it will be in the manner in which we play that will bother me
as long as we give it a go

 

This may be my favorite things ever!!! Simple minds and that...

 

Sod's law says that Sissoko will play and play a blinder.

 

I'm expecting this to be like the manure start the last time we came up. Take a pasting and hope we can keep it respectable, then on to the hudds game

 

I'm hoping it's more like when we stuffed the Villa at home

 

2.1......respectable defeat

 

Fancy us to get a draw in this one, 1-1 with us opening the scoring.

 

I think it will be a closer affair than the last one but Obi has asked me not to comment about him and Chippy on the open forum and so I will restrict my comments to the football game and that we will win 3-2 with Mitro getting a last minute winner.

 

sorted

 

Amazing how I omitted to mention the obvious.

 

it's got that Ketsbia moment written all over it

 

1-1 for me

Or we're going to get a proper battering....

 

Agreed, or we might sneak a win?
