    Can't get too excited when we have no game but we need something to discuss so here goes!

    Police are looking forward to the Millwall game at Luton and we also have Blackburn at Arsenal, MK playing Barnsley and the TV game today is Oldham Everton. None of them look particularly striking and this has to be one of the dullest rounds I can remember.

    Get's a bit better tomorrow with Man City Leeds and Chelsea Brentford but nothing to really get the juices flowing.

    Anyone got any predictions?

    Barnard might be playing for Oldham against Everton, there's some Saints involvement for you.

    Good point DTLW! Had forgotten that. Might have to back him to score. He's netted in both matches so far.

    Blackburn at Arsenal is the most likely upset. Or Leeds at City. In fact I think they could all be upsets!

    That's the least likely upset. Luton v Millwall is surely the most likely upset.

    Just checked the fixtures, what a completely uninspiring day of football this is going to be.

    Luton Millwall might be good.

    I can't remember a worse set of fixtures. Nothing to get excited about in the league either. Only slight interest is that Skates could be rock bottom if they lose at home and the monkeyhangers grab a win.

    I don't think the fixtures are that bad. Luton v Millwall could be fiery. Oldham beat Liverpool last time so Oldham v Everton could be good. I will also be interested in how Bournemouth do now they are serious promotion contenders.

    It'll be funny to see Luton and Millwall fans trying to out-thug each other. It's only down the road from me so I'm not sure why I didn't go.

    With all the build up and police attention there probably won't be much more than a few teenagers shouting naughty words.

    Time for Luton v Millwall! I'm really looking forward to this one. Don't get that there are no interesting ties.

    This should be one!

    Can't believe they would put this game on TV. So much audible swearing!
