The only 8pm ko.  Is it on the tv?

No. Teams get to choose their preferred midweek kickoff time at the start of the season.

Most choose 7.45 but Reading chose 8.


we dont do well starting at 7.45 anyway

Or at 3 o'clock.

Or 2, 4, midday...

I am as mad as hell and I can't take it any more.  Why CAN'T we have a midfield of Bunn and Baker?  It's little enough to ask?  So one is a goalie.  So fucking WHAT.  We lose all our games anyway, why can't we get on Question of Sport for having a midfield of Mr Bunn the Baker?  At least some fucking thing to laugh at.  Everton very nearly had Bell, Book and Kendall and look how well they are playing.  Fucking twats the lot of them.

If the player doesn't start, just expand it to fullscreen, and it should start (and Escape key to get out of it)

Wow. Ok.

Well new managers get to try out things to get a look at all players I guess.

Lets hope it works out.

Spoiler for Hiden:
it wont

442 with two wingers. Bacuna has the best delivery a the club. Keep it simple, we should win this.

I've been saying for ages that we're trying to play too intricately. We'll be better off without any of Grealish, Ayew or McCormack in the side IMO. Prove me right lads!

I think you might be right. There is balance there - but, both Jedi and Gary need to put in their performances of the season.

I know that trick Edvard - can't even see a player link to expand.

That team is set up to play survival football, not promotion football. But to be honest that might just be what's required.
