Good afternoon fight fans.
Bolt On in the FACUP make it is then. And before any examination of our own can of worms transpires we need to stare long and hard into the face of the opposition. Well, in actual fact, not too long. The Wanderers have had an abysmal season.
The Trotters sit fourth from bottom only as the suicide wish has been stronger in a hopeless Wigan, a Wolves side that when in free fall was actually sabotaged by their own board and a QPR mob that are literally a bonfire of vanities.
‘Form goes out the window in the Cup!’
I’m split as how to reply to such a call. Split between answering, ‘That’s rubbish’ or ‘So what?’
The bottom line is that they have played some of the most uninspiring Premiership football this season. So are they up for doing a ‘Birmingham’ or up for staying in the division? Again, who cares, as I do not recognise this mob as a credible obstacle.
Above is my selection. But this is wholly dependent upon the players being deployed to their strengths. Without being cute, you can take those players, stick Brad up front in a 451 and it doesn’t work.
Predictions?
Arry is many things but ‘unaware of the grief he will have personally aimed at him should we go out of the Cup’ isn’t one of them. It will be interesting to put it mildly to see just how we do. Tomorrow. We ought to win. We bloody well will win. So 3-0 for me.
Cudicini
Walker
Kaboul
King
Benny
Krankie
Parker
The Croat
Bale
Defoe

VDV to come on for last 25 mins. Predict 3-1.
“We’d be way over expectations if we finished in the top four”…. just the sort of inspirational leadership we need from our “motivator of men” at this moment in time with the scum and the Chavs fired up an chasing our tail. Troutchops once again preparing the way to justify his failure in order that the Redknapp ego does not suffer when he hopes he gets the FA call. Tbh if we fail to get CL then if I was the FA I would tell him to trot off and Levy should do the same.Now that would be justice of some sort
:daumen:
Just seen the ‘punching above our weight’ comment.
Is there another Spurs team because I swear the one I support had ‘no reason why we can’t win the title’ only a few short weeks ago.
My head is spinning, and not in a good way.

It’s pretty worrying that the manager has started lowering expectations as it seemed that our season was off down the swanny.
Pley the players where they should be, like we did at the start of the season, when we were ripping the shit out of teams
The only one who has been punching above his weight for the past few years is Arry ‘I am a one in thirty’ Redschnapps…..
:winke:
I go with that harts, how can we be punching above our weight when we’ve the second best squad in the country?
bale on the left modric in the middle is the main thing for me we have the squad to support our best players in their best positions!
A midfield with kranjaer, modric and bale just does not work. Kranjaer while decent does not give you width. Would have been good to have pienaar around now..even Townsend or falque would be good, and the forgotten man dos santos
dos santos – what has he ever done for us? Cue Monty Python type responses.
The aqueduct?
Schools, and roads?
Keeping the local hostelries profitable?
And the wine…
