[Blaarev]

Neck brace, neck strapped. Oxygen

That sounds really bad. Hope he's okay

Shit.

 

[Lako42]

Anything happening? in Egypt having a quick protest and cant get the radio.

 

[Motown Fox]

We are not doing much
But we now have a corner

 

[Jenks]

Sledge OG

 

[Profondo Rosso]

0-1 St Ledger own goal.

 

[Motown Fox]

SSL the new Frank Sinclair(og)??

 

[Motown Fox]

Signing for a Prem team on Monday then.

Well Shakey thinks he's staying.

Shakey: "Tough decision but it's the XI we think can get the away result. Anthony (Knockaert) will have a big role to play this season."

 

[atlantafox]

Pearson out !

 

[Lako42]

Get that little French lad on now. Hes the type of player you might want when a goal down.

Nice, back to the pool I reckon.

Now the test.. how does this line-up score, 5 defenders, 2 holding midfielders, a goalkeeper and 3 others

 

[Miles Away]

It's going to be a very long season.

It doesn't is my guess.

 

[atlantafox]

I think with Yeovil, Barnsley and Huddersfield in the division we can just about avoid relegation

Not created a chance yet have we? Jesus.& my mouth fell open when I saw Knockeart wasn't even on the bench.It seems we now know why Pearson didn't seem to have a Plan B last season.I can only assume he doesn't want one.

Not realise Jeff Schlupp was French I thought he was from Ghana

Plan A was obviously a 0-0 draw. Plan B is to hope for a peno.

 

[Profondo Rosso]

Schmeichel saves a one on one, Boro should've been 2 up.

 

[Motown Fox]

Kasper - well done - kept us in it

 

[Miles Away]

A team built to not concede sloppy goals and to keep things tight go down a goal early. The two players most likely to provide a spark are 1. In the stand and 2. On the bench.

Well arsed off with this already.

Grumble grumble.
