Not sure on the result but I fancy Samba to score the first goal.
Which end?

It's strange, they're certainly not invincible but their name/the atmosphere generated seems to put us on our guard as fans as much as players. If this was on tomorrow afternoon and our players put on Walsall shirts I'd be a lot more confident. Would be surprised and disappointed to see us lose though and think we might nick it.

I hate Friday games.  Do we ever win on Fridays?

Good chance for a win. But then so was Sheffield Wednesday...

The Sheff Weds game still haunts me, how easily they picked us apart and we had no answer in reply. Tonight we have the problem of a very fast attack against our less than mobile defence.

You could have said the same thing about the 10 we've won.

Pre-match reading...

I certainly don't remember Southgate scoring... ever.
yes, I was there when he scored twice and Harry Kewll scored a belter for Dirty Leeds just after halftime.

Still pretty damned cold up here!

I've been twice. Last season and a game which finished 1-1 with Kachloul scoring I think his only goal for us.

But we lost. And if I’d said it about a game we’d won my post wouldn’t have made sense. Duh.

They looked decent the last game I saw against Boro. Key injuries to our lot, 2-1.
