    thanks for a smashing match day thread RTB i've gone for a draw, i think playing pre season without recognized strikers, will backfire with the crispness of passing in the box letting us down, i hope for the win but fear we are strengthening too late, as a team needs time to gell, a lesson we have learned a few times already, but hey ho onwards and upwards, here's hoping

    Tough start to the season, but I'm always optimistic so gone for the home win.

    Fantastic thread as always RTB :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Get in there, the first one of the season. Hard game to start with, I've gone for 2-1 to the lads but would probably be happy with a point. Looking forward to a higher standard of game.

    Makes a change, doesn’t it? 90% of games for the last 4 seasons draws would’ve been poor… A point on Sunday would be fine.

    I'm sure they will, but I hope the crowd stick with the Lads all the way through. After the last few years we need to be patient.

    Well off we go in a better league so a bit of apprehension here so I don't mind how many we win by.
    The crowd, manager and squad will be right up for this one so hope the lads can deliver.
    Great thread RTB, nice to have you back HTL

    Yeah - I've probably got too many defenders in the subs, maybe Gooch or Diamond.

    I reckon Neil will play Gooch RB ahead of Hume.

    Same here, I'd play Hume but Neil will go for experience imo
