This has to be the latest start ever to an official match day thread.

Outta interested, why are there black dots down the left hand side of your post?

They are bullet points, used to draw attention to salient information.

Just looking at bets for today, was a little surprised to see us as slim favorites? We're the away team just outside the relegation zone?!

Why would anyone play defence minded Holla ahead of attack minded Forster Caskey?

agreed. Hoping to see the best out of all three of them if we play JFC in front of the ince/holla brickwall.
