Good awning.
With the weather as unpredictable as it has demonstrated itself to be of late a stout piece of reliable tarpaulin may prove itself invaluable.
And then there was Stoke.
The first question in any interrogation is to the questioner who needs to ask his or herself (ooh stop, it’s not lunchtime yet) how important the matter is. The much ‘debated’ issue of fielding children over adults has been somewhat at the fore on here of late.
Stoke were put up as prime example of a side that caught out, spreading themselves too thinly. By contrast, BMJ’s Fulham by stark contrast proved that offering up your first team need not necessarily court disaster as they drew with FC Twente and then pulled off a historic draw against the free scoring and merciless Manchester City.
So who will play? Stoke are neither a bunch of well meaning sweaties, nor a shower of faceless Greeks.
Judging by Arry’s latest comments what we will get is something between the first team and the yoofsters. Gomes, Pav, VdV, Dos Santos and presumably anyone else Arry can’t reach using the power of …trifficness.
Prediction?
Minus PNB and Ade we will struggle. This isn’t at all me being Mr MiseryGuts, rather me being Mr OpinionBasedOnHowWeWhereBeforeTheyLanded so 0-0.

I’d be fascinated to know why Steve Perryman has only just be inducted into the Hall of Fame? Is there really a probation period in which you mustn’t dis da club?

Just saw our last pen and it was pretty weak but someone had to miss.
Strange all our other guys apart from Pav took such good pens when you consider we can’t score one for love or money when awarded in the normal course of a game.
dont know why they dont play these early rounds with straight pens first.what a waste of time.
7-6 sounds like a scorcher of a game ,what happened to HHs 0-0 banker then :hae:
HH’s 0-0 copped, so I am going to assume he has plenty of readies to spend at the offie which should allow him to drown his sorrows in style.
Can we leave Pav out there until he gets one in the net? Although the cleaners will probably want to lock up by around 1 in the morning.
You’ve been very quiet tonight, unlike MS who has been posting for England!
I resent the association with England!
But after the farce of initially trying to post the Stoke line-up, I figured I may as well go the whole hog :-D
I’d like to complain about the absence of stats in said posting… Along with preference for Steak & Chips or Curry & Lager ‘Shoot profiles’ style.
I saw the problem you had with that and hope HH will give you a mention in despatches for your sterling efforts!

Ahh, been working unfortunately. Tried keeping up with events but doing the VAT kind of ended up a more entertaining proposition :blink:
Sounds like I missed quite an evening.
Well, if you need the VAT doing the next time we play the kids in the Carling Cup and you really don’t want to miss the game, I’ll swap with you :silly:
Bugger off, it’s mine… I’m not letting you pinch the fun on cup night!
:cwy: It’s almost like you knew what I was going to say before I said it.
I would say with all certainty that the words ‘credit note’ will be on the lips of the Investec bigwigs in the morning.
‘refund’ is the word I’d be speaking
Kerrrrrrrching! :-D :-D :-D
I take it G2S has given Harry some selection problems ahead of the weekend… Does he select the Mars Bar or the Snickers when he sends him to the petrol station at half time?
You cant, I just spat beer all over my keyboard!!
It reaches the parts other beers cannot reach
Astro is doing his Martin Peters impersonation again, always several minutes ahead of his time.
It’s about time HH put a stop to Astro’s rauchiness!
Look out… Behind you!!! :ninja:
testing ………. testing ………..
I’ll try going back a year to warn ‘arry he’s gonna fuck up our league campaign ;-)
I trust you are using your super powers only for good!
Thats me done for the evening, time to dream of 3 points against Wigan this weekend.
I’m going to attempt to go back and tie Pav’s laces together before the weekend. That might do some good.
