If he's playing Bigi for the first time in yonks when Marveaux is fit and available then I have big issues with it. You're right about that, bear in mind Marveaux was sat on his arse and couldn't move towards the end of the Fulham game though. Bigi shouldn't be there ahead of Marveaux but I trust Bigi to play well. Williamson will be a disaster like he has all season long.

Bigi I'm not so worried about, Williamson is the major clanger here.

Needs to keep a clean sheet and starts Williamson cheers Al.

This will be like Brighton all over again. Oh, let's play a shit side and then bring on Marveaux after 70 to win it... even though by then we'll be out of the tie.

If he starts, we're out.

Rubin were minging in that first half, if they'd played like the second half all game they might well be through

All you optimists... odds as high as 20/1 kicking about for NUFC 2-0.

58p here. What did you get? I got 100/1.

Fuck, if that had gone in, I'd have fancied Rubin like

No way will that actually happen imo.

Sigh, time is going slowly. Can't wait for the magic 7pm team news milestone.

Rondon FGS for the Rubin/Chelsea game.

Enjoy the game! Was I supposed to read that in the voice of the matchday PA announcer?

Yeah. 5PM Get in

Are Chelsea on ITV before we are? That could yet save me.

I really wish I was at work today, I've got the whole day to while away in anticipation of this game.

Cisse FGS at 5/1 (DD/HH) tonight will be my bigger bet. Small stakes on NUFC 2-0 and all the English sides to score 2+.
