Yes please MA. I'm a stats geek, so like all this shit.
Edit - safe to say the stats don't make for pretty reading here, though.

As they will tend to be against the "bigger" clubs. It's a useful packet we put together though. I'm happy to share it.

I'd start My Gran over Benaloune & she died in 1980.

Right...I'm here seeking a bit of a lift from all the doom & gloom. So I'm going to have a glass half full moment.
I'll start with this:
**** Utd.
They overachieved massively last season & everyone knows it. Including them. They'd have been 10 points worse off without De Gea pulling off miracles & I'm not backing him to do it 2 seasons in a row.
Also, it's Mr Happy's 3rd season & we all know what that means.
He's made it to this position twice in the Prem & both times he's been sacked by Xmas.
Those other 2 occasions he came into the season as defending champion. This time he comes in having won **** all so will have even less goodwill.
The signs are already there that he's starting to piss everyone off.
I'm hoping history repeats itself & we see the back of the odious shitehawk for good.
It's highly possible that the damage won't kick in until later in the season but it's worth taking a chance & getting at the ****s from the off. We really should have turned Arsenal over in last year's opener. Lets put that right this time around.
We're 8/1 for the win!
Fill your boots lads.

8/1 is bloody good odds.

It isn't, we don't win at old trafford.
One ground where we usually turn up beaten before we get off the coach based on performances.
Really hope that changes tomorrow

To be fair to Lako, he did say "usually" and that was 20 years ago.
(Wonders where 20 years has gone)

Nothing compares to seeing it at the ground. But a distant second best is a cheerful landlord, a pretty barmaid, a pint esch half and above all good company. Ignore the Day Pass Mike and go to a favourite pub.
