Was it an opening day fixture when Bolton put out a team of foetuses and we drew?

If I was playing Football Manager then I think it would tell me Haji isn't match fit so I'd start EMC. Plus I would choose a midfield 3 of Eccles, Torp and Rudoni. But Sir Robins is the man so if it's Haji and Allen then I'm right behind him, well until the final whistle and a 3-0 defeat, then it's cries of I told you so.

I'd take 7 points from August though.

3 goals disallowed, all of them looked perfectly fine, then they nearly nicked it at the end.

Long shot but does anyone have a spare ticket. Eldest plays football Saturdays so didn’t get a ticket for him but he’s got an injury now and can’t play tomorrow so wants to go to the game

I was at that game, game wasn’t even confirmed as going ahead until the night before.

We had 3 goals chalked off for offside 2 of which I’m sure were on.

Fucking hell. Cannot believe the season starts tomorrow. I thought it was going to drag but it didn't seem like 5 minutes ago that we lost the Euro's final.

Very excited for the game and the rest of the season. Hope we can start tomorrow with a bang and set the tone!

A very comfortable and professional 2-0 win.

Going to have a little nibble on either Thomas or Binks 1st goal scorer as just have a feeling with Rudoni’s deliveries we’re going to do well from set pieces this season.

It’s never easy at Stoke but it’s certainly do-able. I feel we’ve got plenty of goals in us this year. I think Rudoni will be a big factor in games.

Picked up an injury in early pre-season, not an issue as he wouldn't be ahead of Sakamoto anyway.

He's back in training, and may get some minutes against Brizzle in the cup. Although we shouldn't expect too much too soon from him as he's untested in British football and is still very much a younster.

Facts related to in game comments such as ‘let’s give up, relegate us now.’ Totally hysterical and throwing in the towel - but as always I look forward to more in game nonsense from the usuals.

Before we turn things around and score in the last minute - with the hystericals nowhere to be seen for the next 7 days.

I'd be very happy with a clean sheet to start the season off well.
No flappy giveaways.

Don’t think anyone would disagree that Jamie Allen is a desperately short midfielder.

Also, your username inspires confidence.

ah ok, I see what you did there…..

It’s a season old, and also ironic considering all the bedwetting on here

I also don’t know how to change it

The midfield choices just aren't balanced. I suspect Robins doesn't trust Palmer, Torp or Rudoni enough defensively (yet) to start 2 of them together so as soon as Sheaf is out, in comes Allen.

That won’t be far out, although I think Allen will start instead of Torp and will captain the side.

My main concern is your suggested formation. Either we are going to play facing our own goal or it’s a 3-2-4-1 formation with Simms in goal and Dovin as the lone striker.
