I got dragged to see the live version of 'Allo 'Allo once. Worst night of my life, trying to force a smile for two hours when I was dying inside.

I recommend watching La La Land, for a thoroughly miserable 6 hours (it felt like 6 hours anyway).

Talk Talk?

I did like that stupid policeman in Allo Allo. He was the best one in it.

Good Moaning. People who leave the motch early are all wonkers.

If you like that sort of thing i suggest the theatre to watch "The play that goes wrong"  I have seen it 3 times and each time it gets funnier and funnier - comedic timing at its finest

Was very clever the way they did that

               Martinez
Cash   Carlos   Chambers  Digne
                 Bouba
         Sanson     McGinn
     Buendia          Coutinho
               Watkins

This for me.

I think its okay to show our hand and put on a performance with SG's preferred starting line up

[Risso]

               Martinez
Cash   Carlos   Chambers  Digne
                 Bouba
         Sanson     McGinn
     Buendia          Coutinho
               Watkins

This for me. 

I think he'll almost certainly start with Bailey.

[Mister E]

I just don't think he sees having both Coutinho and Buendia starting together in the same side.
 
I would much prefer if he went with the team Risso selected. However, I expect he will go with:

                       Martinez

          Cash  Carlos    Mings   Digne

            McGinn Kamara Ramsey

                Bailey   Coutinho

                     Watkins

this is the most likely starting line-up

[Keeno]

Has Bailey ever had a start within our strongest XI? Really looking forward to seeing if he can carry on the form from the United game.

I think his pace and the runs he makes inside the fullback off the right will give Countinho/Buendia the option they need to split defences with their passing.

Did we play Rennes 20-odd years ago during one of our halcyon summer InterToto-BlessTheRainsDownInAfrica campaigns?
