    Just to hijack this thread/go off at a tangent, when did fans (of any club) start to wear their club's shirts? All photos/TV of matches in the 70s and previously show fans wearing scarves, so what happened to start fans wearing the team shirts? Probably the advent of sponsorship on shirts, which meant that the clubs could make money from the sponsorship deal, as well as from the fans.

    Oh, and I think we'll win, after a penalty shootout. Fraser is rather good at saving penalties.

    Well seeing Tom Leach speaks to the “horses mouth” weekly, I am certain he knows more than the likes of you and I.

    Looks like Smallbone is involved.

    That defence is ****ing awful. Valery and Lyanco will be compete liabilities. Not happy with that team. Play KWP at RB!!!!!

    Wonder how strong Chelsea have gone. If they go with a strong team I think the 2 cb will struggle

    Should have gone KWP at RB and Perraud at LB. Perraud could have played tonight.

    Not convinced with Lyanco but he needs to play at some point.

    Personally would have preferred Perraud in so KWP could play RB but other than that it’s not far off what I would have expected.

    I feel equally sorry for that team, with Forster behind them tbh.

    Yeesh that line up is not the prettiest of sights. Fingers crossed that we'll all be surprised. That's my best attempt at positivity.
