Excellent thread BBBW.

I am now thoroughly assured of a comfortable win tonight. Why so pessimistic with your prediction tho'?

I am confident of us scoring 4 goals, they will score somewhat less - 4-1. Greer to finally notch his first.

edit- That's more like it!

 

[Poyetry In Motion]

Excellent title. I am now confident of a 1-0 win for the flairmeisters

 

[larus]

All's well with the world. Going for a 3-0 for us tonight. CMS, Noone and KLL.

Just for the Leeds match:

Ankergren
Calderon Greer Dunk Painter
Navarro Dicker Bridcutt Harley
Barnes Lua lua

Subs: Sparrow, Vincelot, Vicente, Mackail-Smith, Brezovan,

I want Lua lua on right from the start trying to make things happen, rather than just waiting around for breaks. Of course, he will lose the ball a few times, but that's attacking football.

Where's Noone?!

I hope we save Vicente for a full 60 mins against Palace so we can totally outclass/embarrass them .. Mha ha ahha ahhahaha!!!

Where's Noone?!

It's funny how many people are doing these teams and due to the quantity of quality players in the squad, are forgetting to include someone. Saw a couple who missed Bridcutt yesterday.

 

[perseus]

Where's Noone?!

A good point. He should be on the bench as Buckley in injured Noone is rested for the Palace match. I don't think Leeds are as bad as they seem and they need to be rattled or else it will be 0-0.

 

[Sitch]

4-1 Albion

Harley, Barnes x2, Own goal.

 

[sparky999]

starting to think that the short time between liverpool and tonights game could be in our favour......

i know there will be a few changes etc, but we played so well towards the end of the game wednesday, that im kinda hoping we kick off tonights game at the same pace....!

what do people think...?

ive got 3-1 brighton, noone to score first.... he seems hungry for it atm...

 

[Marc1901]

Premier league referee tonight.

2-0 Albion

 

[daveinprague]

My headache after consuming 4 whole beers (well, small beers) on wednesday has gone, so im ready to start again...
