Was just about to say that. On the ball to say the least!

Used to like Forest till the Championship. Bunch of arrogant arseholes. From my own experience, West Ham are a canny bunch, as are Man City and WBA. Blackburn are bastards like.

16/1 for Blackburn is a cracking price. Building a canny squad. Then again their club is ran by idiots and the Manager isn't much better.

Who the hell did Smith come off the bench against? Seriously don't remember him last season.

Probably going to look a tit here. But what film is that f***er off? Edit: Remember I saw him on that Christmas Harold and Kumar. Funny.

Cabaye is even fit in virtual form

After Coloccini and Krul, Jonas was probably player of the season in my eyes. Proper underrated, I love the bloke me.

He was unreal that day full stop. Looked classy, can't say I've seen him since like.

PAOK. Exact same, black and white too.

A lot down to grass roots this. In Europe, I'm sure I've read that youngsters are kept on small sized pitches until 15/16. At 11 in this country youngsters are put on full sized pitches, this kind of encourages the hoof it mentality in my opinion. Obviously professional coaching when players are picked up by clubs has some kind of bearing, but kids are often told they are 'too small, too lightweight' etc.

England are shite.

Remember how good Dorrans was in our Championship season man. Just shows a lot of the players can't actually make the step up.

Take it thats what Douglas is on about for tomorrows journal? I can imagine if a bid got accepted he would be keen all of a sudden.

20th September 4th and 25th October 8th and 22nd November 6th December Play-offs are 23rd and 30th of August. Nice one!

Going over for the quarters arnt they? Either way, they definitely aren't there.

Would surprise me if it wasn't on tele to be honest. I imagine there will be 4 or maybe even 5 with a Monday night game. (3 Sky- 12.45 Sat, 1pm/4pm Sun) and 1 ESPN (5.15 Sat). We'd probably get stitched with the Monday game. Can see Man City/Southampton definitely being on as well.

Sorry to be a lazy bastard but has anyone got a link to the Group game fixtures? Probably tempting fate like!

Me Uncle is mates with Bobby Kerr, and apparently MONg has been to told to sell before he buys, and Agbonlahor is top target. God knows if it's true, me Uncles a pisshead.

Southampton away probably.

Think that's lush. Not keen on the big white patch but think its still lovely.

Probably Chelsea if it goes tits up with Di Matteo.

Aye, obviously take it with a pinch of salt but he's normally quite accurate.

Go through his profile, its not a fake, and he's from up here too. I'm not saying it's definitely true obviously but he has been pretty accurate in advance before. Has a major problem with Allardyce and Gartside which is funny to read, also Redknapp.
