    Oh well, at least I get my £90 x 2 back.

    The Daily Mirror on the left leg and the Express or Sun or Mail on the right.

    SCG Meeting

    Why not just resign your membership if that's how you feel? :slap:

    The Ashes

    :thinking about:I have tickets for Saturday so hoping it lasts that long

    Squad Numbers

    I would expect at least 18 men and then about a dozen boys TBF. We are about 3 men short at the moment IMO.

    Yet another striker(s) update

    :guitar2:It would certainly divide opinion.

    Squad Numbers

    Managers pick the team. Managers can set the tone by measures like what the players wear etc. This would include squad numbers for me because players are likely to want the same numbers and then you have to adjudicate. A minor detail but some managers like to manage the small details.

    Squad Numbers

    I know, it's so annoying when people use an Internet forum to express an inoffensive opinion. :claping hands:

    Squad Numbers

    Conor at 6? Should be Ricketts. Wafer thin squad and a sobering read for the happy clappy optimists atm. Good to see the kids are not given numbers yet. Hope TM can find a few uncut diamonds in the loan market.

    Stokes and Tudgay

    If they get any longer they will be knickerbockers. A return to Singers F.C.

    Stokes and Tudgay

    Shorts, they are called shorts, not longs or plus twos. :facepalm:

    Stokes and Tudgay

    Those are are proper shorts. We could do with those players too. :claping hands:

    Stokes and Tudgay

    The real issue is what the hell is going on with the size of shorts this year? Are we playing US college basketball? They are at least 2 sizes too big and look ridiculous.

    Wigan (H)

    15% of Brits on holiday in August so our gate will be at least 10% down on the same fixture in any other month. So 11,000 tops.

    Wigan (H)

    Middle of six weeks school,college, and univ holidays. It remains a daft time to start the season. It was much better when the season began on the last Saturday in August. Everything about football was better then, of course. :claping hands::guitar2:

    Loan Target

    Parachute payments are due to football in this country being a corrupt cartel.

    Starting XI Now

    Would save a lot in goal

    Starting XI Now

    Of course it is worse. Defence and midfield no stronger and attack weaker. Ricketts for Pennington? Ward and Barton replaced by Vincelot and Swanson = looks no better to me but hope to be proven wrong.

    Starting XI Now

    Good point. However, they are not going to be replaced unless TM is after 8 or 9 new players which seems unlikely.
