I agree it won't be a cake walk. Monstar being a prime example last season

plenty of high balls into the box and very direct

I think that’s the exact opposite of how they play.

After yesterday performance I can't see a win, they play at a fast pace which we don't seem comfortable with

2-0 and top 8. We really need a rest, be a tough game though.

Played for Villa and Celtic
I'll go first - Stiliyan Petrov!

Frank McAvennie

Dion Dublin
Alan Thompson
Tommy Johnson
Chris Sutton


Diddier Agathe

Isn't that what Whigfield says at the beginning of 'Saturday night'?

That made me laugh 😂

Yeah, me too, probably more than it should have done.

Me three, and with the added value of actually then saying it in my head to confirm it's accuracy.

You "can't see a win" against a team for whom only one player would be make our starting eleven (one of their two centre-backs, obviously)?

That strikes me as strangely despondent.

No, But they are, of course, really easy to activate and use. I suspect the late delivery is a very deliberate ploy to make it as difficult as possible for the green and white army to descend upon our fabled ground.

Thank you for your kind offer, but you really aren't my type.

I've enough shit to worry about in life without trying to find a negative in everything. The tickets will be issued, everyone will get in, we'll watch the game and hopefully life will be lovely by 10pm on Wednesday.

I'm sorry if my optimistic view of life isn't to your taste, I just happen to believe in what I post. As I'm sure your miserable take reflects yours.
