Donny won just 1 match in their last 19 last season which was relegation form and have just 3 wins in 2011. There was a 0-6, a 2-5 and 6 matches where the opposition scored 3 times. Our attack will certainly need no second invitation to run riot:albion2:

They were plagued with injuries and have since improved their team.

2-2 in my book. One of ours will be a penalty and both of theirs will be defensive errors.

They still have plenty of injuries - Brian Stock, Adam Lockwood, James Chambers, Shelton Martis, Mark Wilson and Martin Woods all out injured which is good news for us, less so for them.

Who are those players? Seriously.

It's a shame we'll not be required to get out of 3rd gear in our first match. It will be like a ramp-up event for the players.

Hope Gus Poyet is as uninformed.

There are no predictable games in this division - anyone can beat anyone else on their day. Those of you predicting a Brighton victory have a 1 in 3 chance of being correct, but it may not be as easy as some of you think.

We'll have to counter the effect of the first proper fixture at the Amex, newly promoted side etc, but a new season is a new season - didn't Norwich lose 1-7 at home on opening day in 2009/10 and then win their division after 46 games?

Looking forward to Saturday nonetheless.

You're probably right... but it wont be easy.
As for top 6... who knows... look what happened at Norwich. This is a crazy league and anybody can beat anybody. You'll see.

I am not saying Doncaster are a poor team, but you have zero chance of taking any points back to Yorkshire on Saturday. Spurs got lucky on Saturday, it won't be the same for your boys. Enjoy the day and the atmosphere!

Best team in Yorkshire?

Will we score a hatful against Barnsley? Leeds possibly !

Is Chris Brown likely to start and how do you rate him?

That's what I figure. It will be a close run thing with 52 pts perhaps 55 pts to escape relegation.
