For today and for the new season. Nothing will test your resolve like the way our season ended last year but I'm optimistic and really looking forward to the game. The club seems to have a plan, although it's not yet complete, and we've addressed some of the issues of ageing players and a short term outlook.
Not convinced we'll win today but with some good recruitment next week there's reason for optimism.
A slightly pointless post but I'm bursting with excitement for the match. COYB
I agree, I am feeling fairly confident (always dangerous) for the coming season, and am hopeful that we will entertain, BUT also defend and dig in this time around.
I think with Krov and Sawyers that our midfield will score more often than last year too!
Boing Boing!
Agree with you both. My kid asked me who would win the league this year and I stated we would. He looked at me in amazement and I told him I was serious. I told him that we have a top manager, and are a couple of players away from a promotion contending team. I told him we need to pull an “Odemwingie” out of the hat for it to happen, but stranger things have happened.
A couple of signings away from me getting excited

I wonder if we have anyone monitoring the car parks, just in case

I was thinking that only this morning. Stating the obvious, I know, but such players are out there somewhere.

Sawyers hit 6 league goals in 127 games for Brentford, Krab has 18 career goals.
We should certainly create more goals, but may need a decent striker or two, can we replace the 50 goals lost from Gayle and JRod......time will tell.

I dunno, I just have a feeling about them pairing up! For once I hope I'm right!

Love the idea of Sawyers, Krav, Edwards and Phillips in the same team.
Edwards to score today.
get in!
