Come on lads, it's only Liverpool.




Re Mill Road.
It reopens 2 hours after kickoff, yes?

If that's right does that mean the last bus out of Dodge will be about 4pm?

Well we really should be banking the 3 points now on this one after all it's only Liverpool and we should be racking up the goals scored too!! Oh hang on a minute that was my dream last night..more than likely another afternoon at the Amex spent with my head in my hands tutting and sighing over another defeat,wondering why I got involved in football in the first place...but you never know,stranger things can and do happen,I would jump at a rare 1-1 draw right now.

Dean, Hooper, Attwell and Massey-Ellis all lined up against us:moo:

I don't even know why I'm bothering to go. The actual team lineups are irrelevant. Liverpool could play eleven fans straight off the train and those four would make sure we lose.

Come on, let’s not be doom and gloom merchants over this....of course only a nut would bank on us winning this but that is not to say we won’t do better than of late and maybe sneak a point....
Overall the performance last week was better than of late , apart from a silly five minutes, so let’s look forward to a good game.
After all, it is Saturday, right now the sun is shining and we have a game to follow..... can’t be bad !

Looking forward to it. Hopefully we’ll get some mojo back and it’s a decent contest.

I wonder if them dick heads who get in the king and queen will go to the Amex with their autograph books and wait for the Liverpool coach to arrive before making their way back to the pub to watch it?
