Early shift today late shift tomorrow. So like a problem gambler putting his last few shekels on a 50 team accumulator in the vain hope he will recoup his losses. I have purchased a match pass for tonight hoping that tonight there will be a positive response after the last two games.

I’m much the same. A week or two ago I would’ve felt really confident going into this. We’d just hammered Plymouth and Wigan had lost about 30 in a row. Since then we’ve taken a downturn in form again and Wigan have beaten two good sides. Could be a tough one.

If the 50 team acca comes in just get Ladbroke to sign the business over to you as settlement.
Tonight the first goal will be important. If they get it I can see them putting men behind the ball, wether the goal is early or late. If we get it then I think we will score mote. Like Accy got three in the second half.
So a nil all draw it is then!
Actually I would take that, for the defense’s sake, as long as we compete well and use some width.

Not allowed to gamble it gave me too much of a buzz. Although I suppose this is a bit like gambling hence my comment.
Maybe we should start with Baah and go for it.

Passed the team coach on way up Roch Valley Way at 4:30pm, leaving it a bit late with the earlier kick off, traffic in Death Valley was quite heavy back to Sinister island

Well recently we haven't started playing until around the 30m mark, so we might not notice a difference anyway?

So is it a back 3 or Big Jim in the middle with Bonesy and Roberts down the left?

If only we could play that team twice ðŸ˜‚

Back 4 Roberts at left back I reckon.

I would reckon a back 4 too. BBM must really have lost faith in Bola if he's brining in McNulty ahead of him at LB (or Roberts could be playing there). I did wonder whether McShane would get a game.

Nice to see Baah start. A bit of pace and direct running.

Does this mean McNulty has been out shining McShane in training then? Chosen as the sub over him on Saturday and in the starting 11 today ðŸ¤”

McShane is probably not 100%. Looks like Bola will go back in January I don't think he's a bad defender we just need more going forward especially when the two centre backs have been so strong. Not sure how I feel about Roberts at left back I don't think we'll be getting the most out of him individually but let's hope it has the right effect on the team setup. Excited and apprehensive about Baah starting don't think he's ever had a good full 90. Maybe we're after a fast start.

Most likely something to do with his concussion.

When I was your age, I used to enjoy the odd game of tennis. Or was it golf?
