If we win he's even shitter.

We found this formation when Bent was out and played our best, he hasn't played it since.

That's a good team, in my opinion. Should be good enough to beat Blackburn if we go for it.

Thats the team I wanted that I posted in the pre-match thread, with the exception of Herd for Clark who I assume isn't fit.  Happy with that, but I was quite happy with the team he picked at Wigan, didn't stop him employing awful tactics.

Just to clarify, by 'a good team' I mean it's the right one to pick in the circumstances! I don't think it's that good in and of itself.

Anyway, I was surprisingly confident we'd win this, then I saw that Risso was going to this one, which seems to herald a stinker of a performance.

Ah, he's bound to get some luck sometime, and so are we. 3-0 to us.

Sadly, we'll play like frightened rabbits and good players will look awful.
i hope we scrape a draw.

Well, actually i hope we win 8-0 but realistically I hope we draw.
