Your 4fold win may come up, i fancy both Merseyside and Edinburgh clubs today. But my draw coupon is almost buggared already - Portsmouth are 2-0 at half time against Villa. The second goal was an absolute screamer!! And Pompey derserve there lead. This is the first of 9 Prem games live on TV this weekend

Fanny!

Anyone having a flutter? I havent done the draws for a while so may have a treble Villa v Portsmouth Newcastle v Birmingham Norwich v Sheff U

Thats always been my answer. Its never came down to a choice of one or the other, and with the size of our squad we have enough depth to compete in both.

Fraser, thats a day off school for you with Gersnet's permission The fans have to be right up for this one for 90 mins. As Gav says we can go quiet at times, and at the Barca game we seemed to only have about 3 songs (sounded like that on telly). But again as Gav said back in 99/00 the atmosphere lasted 90 mins. But im sure this one will as its almost like a cup final with something at stake rather than a normal group game.

Bit in bold - I hope not!! Aberdeen v Kilmarnock - Draw Celtic v St Mirren - Home win Falkirk v Dundee Utd - Away win Hearts v Motherwell - Home win or maybe draw Inverness v Hibernian - Draw Rangers v Gretna - Match postponed but Home win on the littlewoods pools coupon - remember Grandstand used to do that with cancelled games, they would still read out there prediction.

Dirty N London Bassa's!! :uzi: They have links to Aberdeen and now they sing Hail Hail. They are 1 club ive never had time for.

So maybe he was shite after all!! What happened to the Le Guen that won 3 titles at Lyon.

If you check the Newcastle v Arsenal thread you'll see I was up at 5am my time to watch that game which was now a full 11 hours and 15 mins ago

I was up 9 hours before of the Tull mate, its past tea time here

I was going to post this aswell. Shows that the guy is on another planet when they are sitting 2nd bottom.

Abroad?? It would have been Blackpool mate

Defeat would taste like failure but im optimistic and fancy us to get at least the draw we need. No doubt about it though, Lyon have picked up after there sloppy start and thats one thing we have to be wary of. The longer it stays 0-0 will be equally nailbiting for them. The chosen line up will be interesting. With Darch out then surely there is a shout for a man like Buffel to play behind Cousin to help us get that goal we need?? Ive never lost interest in the Premiership and in the last 2 seasons with the great amount of games i get Ive went onto like it even more. Agreed about Arsenal - I dont think there is a football fan in the world who could not enjoy watching them. I did enjoy Man U last season - I thought they were terrific and I had a nice bet on them winning the league. I think we have agreed on the MAn U hatred thing before. In the 90s they were the team to hate but since 2002/03 there arrogance seemed to disappear andsince then i can now watch them no problem at all. It used to be if they were on TV on a CL wed night, id switch off as soon as they were 1 up. Im hoping Arsenal win it aswell but I think it is a 4 horse race now. Dont rule out Liverpool either. If they win there game in hand then they are level with Man U. Next Sunday (15th Dec) will be a treat - Liverpool v Man U then Arsenal v Chelsea.

Im surprised Jons cheeks are still together with the amount of shit thats been between them, usually runny ones

Will be great to see S Smith back. The Gordon Durie is out on Webster though. He may be a long term replacement for Weir but at the moment im not 100% confident on him. Get him fit and give him a few games then we'll see.

Got that sent to me the other day and could easily have believed it as im I am still waiting for them to try and sneak in the back door somehow.

Woke up at 5am and it was on so just watched it. Arsenal couldnt get it together after the goal at all but Taylor should have been sent off in the last minute when Adebyeor was clean through and he blocked him off.

Fook off picky bassa I couldnt fit in a name, thought about Dale Winton

1 man went to bed, went to bed with Boruc, 1 man with his strap-on on, went to bed with Boruc 2 men went to bed, went to bed with Boruc, 2 men 1 man with his strap-on on, went to bed with Boruc 3 men went to bed, went to bed with Boruc, 3 men 2 men 1 man with his strap-on on, went to bed with Boruc 4 men..... 5 men..... 6 men..... 7 men..... 8 men..... 9 men..... 10 MEN WENT TO BED, WENT TO BED WITH BORUC, 10 MEN 9 MEN 8 MEN 7 MEN 6 MEN 5 MEN 4 MEN 3 MEN 2 MEN 1 MAN WITH HIS STRAP-ON ON WENT TO BED WITH BORUC

I havent noticed that myself, id have said the opposite. But when we are talking about Boyd........:devil:

Naismith to play upfront for me. If we are looking for cover else where then Buffel should come in, he's done enough in reserve games to be given a chance. Id like to see them both play in the next league game

Yeah probably but that means taking Buffel out my team and moving Ferguson there, shifting Thomson in one place and bringing Naismith / Adam in. Or Playing Whittaker / Naismith RM, McCulloch LM and moving Thomson in again with Ferguson going to Buffels place. If its between Naismith, Adam, Whittaker or Buffel then its a 2 way toss between Naismith or Buffel. People will say Naismith probably deserves a start more but id pick Buffel simply because he is more natural in the hole behind the striker and that allows Ferguson to play his natural role more while keeping Hemdani and Thomson in the team. Lyon are going to have to attack us and if Buffel is playing then we could hit them on the break.

They will never fill 30,000 and will struggle to pay for it with hiked up ticket prices turning fans off. It should mean the OF get about 10,000 tickets up there though but that wont happen. On another side its about time there was a ground in Scotland with a 30,000 capacity to play semi finals like Dundee Utd v Hearts rather than playing in a quarter filled Hampden.

Thats a big blow. So do we play Cousin and Naismith upfront or go with 4-5-1. Personally Id look at 4-5-1 with Buffel playing off Cousin. ________________McGregor_________________ Hutton______Weir________Carlos_______Papac McCulloch___Ferguson___Hemdani____Thomson _________________Buffel__________________ _______________Cousin____________________

Reading this makes me want to see Buffel in the first team more and more. He is playing well in every reserve outing and to play in a cold blustery night and not complain shows he must have the right attitude
