Yes, tbh.

Might just win a bet for the first time in 3 weeks.

I'm not completely dismissing the Villa and Everton games. Just think they tell us little about our prospects for the season.

If we'd got points off our relegation rivals i might be, to some extent.

We played Everton and Villa at exactly the right time. I'm not sure how anyone can look at our first 6 league games and be fully confident of survival.

I still don't have a clue what you were actually disagreeing with in my earlier post. It's common sense, man; either Hughton is scared to drop Nolan or he's daft enough to think he's worth his place in the team. I'd certainly love to hear your alternative.

Owen got plenty of chances on a plate during his last season with us. As Gullit says, his finishing has just gone to s***, he scuffs the ball.

Shola with 68.

Nolan and Colo are our highest rated at the start on mine, both with 77.

That's what he starts at, yes.

God bless Strachan.

What about losing at Goodison and Stamford bridge? I am sure you don't mind that as well... The Chelsea result won't help keep us up.

Unfortunately we'll be here time and time again this season. Needing to pick up points against teams we can't compete with because of negative tactics losing us points against the basement clubs.

Lovenkrands barely has any pace left, sadly. It's not the type of pace that drives a team forward anyway. Ben Arfa has to be there. Lovenkrands would be just as much a passenger as Nolan is, perhaps even moreso.

He touched the ball twice in 46 minutes. Ferguson must be losing it.

Owen still hasn't scored in a league start for Man U, it's laughable how shite he is.

Don't have Fifa 11 yet but he's absolutely incredible by 2014 on 10.

It's worrying than Wolverhampton Wanderers are a better side than us, is my point.

'That lot' in which you billed as a good side and thought we'd be comfortably beaten by? I thought we'd be beaten, yes. Comfortably? I don't remember saying that. They're a better team than us. Seeing them getting destroyed like that is worrying. So then drawing 1-1 away is a pretty good result away to a better team? I think they're pretty s*** to be honest. So are we, and so are Wigan. Independent results and performances don't really change that factor, you could also pick out the Wigan - Blackpool result and say that Wigan are dreadful and there is nothing to worry about. It was a good result, absolutely. Just not sure it was deserved.

No one is seated four minutes before kickoff, so you figure it is something to do with traffic or congestion. They're all seated now, 3 minutes before.

We could easily have been 2-0 down to that lot a few weeks back.

Man City Liverpool Ipswich Man U (dnb) Spurs (dnb) £30 returns £215.

If we lose to this lot in the same manner we lost to Stoke, there'll be hell to pay.

Wigan have a nasty habit of winning games every so often.
