    Ugbo to score though. FFS!!!
    He will only make the bench as we can name 9 subs and looks like we have some injuries. I would have Ojo, Evans and Tanner ahead of him.

    We'll have none of this if you please!!! There are very few who can ridicule another's prediction!!! Especially from regular relegation fodder!!!!

    And a former Prediction League winner I'll have you know. Twice I think. Ask Sheepy. And H Bomb if you can find him. :emoticon-0148-yes:

    I hope he's right too.
    I also have other hopes for him!

    But in that final sentence, haven't you done exactly what you said shouldn't be done in the previous sentences? <confused>

    Justice for BfB!

    Ban the speaker - just stop Hoyle

    Hear hear, the treatment of the Bridgend One (or B.O. as we know him) stinks....

    Fair point. You really don't want to be around after my Thursday night club run, usually 8 or 9k. My running kit makes its own way home while I have a beer.

    That statement I made was a fact. Relegated two seasons ago and reprieved- by me....and at my expense. Bottom 3 all last season and pulled himself out with a couple of last gasp results!!!
    And anyway......don't argue with league management.....arbitrary penalties can ensue!!!!
    However, with the renewed optimism around the club, we who cannot predict losses should rise.

    I didn't realise this was a dictatorship. <whistle>

    In modern day democracies the population are perfectly entitled to question the decisions of those in charge.

    By the way, the statement I made about being a former Prediction League Champion was also correct.

    I stand to be corrected if wrong but I can't see Ugbo scoring at Leeds - or playing for that matter.

    But let's not fall out before the season starts. Save it for later when things get really contentious. <yikes>

    As Churchill once said "Let's not allow democracy to get in the way of progress!!!"
    As an analogy, have we, as a club, ever got away with questioning the decisions of the EFL?
    But there's no question of falling out!!!

    I’ve been looking at a few articles which predict us to finish 20th this season. I hope not. Still hoping to finish in top half.
    Worryingly some have the Jacks finishing 7th. It will be interesting to see how the championship pans out.

    As always, it will be a tough old championship season.
    I think once our enhanced goal threat has been tapped in to, we'll be safe enough. I'm still hopeful of a top half finish, especially if we get the dynamic CM that has been alluded to.

    I think it might be another season where two of the three relegated go back up via the autos and the rest going for a play off spot.
    I've got a sneaking suspicion that the Wurzels may do something this season.

    Most of the ones I've been talking to at 5 a-side and work are noisily optimistic to say the least.

    Then again, some of them are so insular that they hadn't even noticed we'd signed Rambo, so they probably don't have a clue as to what's been going on with their divisional rivals to be able to gauge things realistically.

    Going to be a topsy turvy season for many of us for sure.

    My concern is letting them in - I reckon blank sheets will be like gold dust with the standard of our keepers notwithstanding concerns over McGuiness.

    Seems City will need to score at least 3 to have a chance of winning<whistle>

    We will not be playing like a side 8-1 with the bookmakers. Wait and see
