    I've got Van Aanholt (takes set pieces) and Zaha. Stick with it.

    Gotta feeling Newcastle might sneak a win today.

    Expecting a comfortable win for United.

    The last time Toon played the Spuds they ****ing tonked them 5-1 and pooch said he wanted to kill his players <laugh>

    Would be a right laugh if the same thing happened today.

    Indeed, it would be hilarious. Don't think it'll happen though.

    Nah it won't be a thrashing, just got a feeling they might sneak a 1-0 and there will be talk of Spurs crisis.

    On another note, some of @StanDMan's comments on your match thread are hilarious <laugh>

    Yeah can't see it either tbh. Would be funny as **** if they lose though after all the guff HIAG has been spouting about them being title challengers this season.

    The defending in the first games of the season have been diabolical. But it's not a total surprise that mistakes are made on the first day whilst teams are a bit rusty.

    I'd expect Arsenal, Chelsea and some of the others to tighten up a bit as the season progresses. Can't same the same for Liverpool though, I think they are going to ship goals all season.

    I've predicted a Newcastle win on the prediction thread.

    Stan wears his heart on his sleeve and is not a stranger to puzzling comments. I try to look at it from his perspective but I get all dizzy <double>

    No surprise wart, first game at home in front of a very partisan crowd will probably see them play really well. I think you have your work cut out and you do have previous there.

    United and West Ham to play out a dire draw, Spurs to win.

    Hoddle is a god likes this.

  15. So, that's you predicting an easy Toon win, today, and revelling in a Spurs loss.

    I really do hope, for your sake, that this doesn't come back to haunt you, mate.
    <ok>

  16. Can see us challenging again, this season, along with City, if we get off to a decent start to this season.

  18. I would pull out a net for you to leap into, Libby, but I'm distracted by the imminent start of our first game.

  19. So, what do you lads think the score will be?

    I'm going for 1-3.

    Pixie has predicted a Spurs tonking, so he's probably going for something like 5-2.

    What about the rest of you?
