mrmojorisin75 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I wonder if the players were gathered for the draw this morning and what the reactions was. Anybody know some wild dogs that can give us some inside info? no idea why but this had me belly laughing... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David28 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 You rememember incorrectly. It was at Turf Moor. Allright. But at least I got the team right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Overall I'm quite happy with our fixtures, not too one sided and nicely spread out. Good couple of game in May for us to try and get 6 points from in our relegation battle, at least there will be hope. Glad we face Sunderland at home first as well, hopefully we can get something from that game taking the pressure off us a bit when we visit there, getting beat at theirs then having to face them at SJP with nothing to lose would have been a struggle and certainly a defeat for us. Also Manu away, gets it out of the way, Rio's out, plus lots of gutted players from the WC, especially Rooney means we could nick a point again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David28 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 owen to score, guaranteed, we are already 1-0 down Alan Smith to score as well. So it's already 1-1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 owen to score, guaranteed, we are already 1-0 down I hope he gets a warm welcome from our fans... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keefaz Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Does the logic about having an easy run-in stand up? I mean, maybe we're playing atrociously and our confidence is totally shot by the end of the season? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, maybe we're playing atrociously and our confidence is totally shot by the end of the season? i don't think there is an easy run in for struggling teams at the bottom, many results at that time actually come against teams higher up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phil K Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Watching BBC when they mentioned newly promoted West Brom will play Chelsea...and the runners-up, Newcastle will play Manchester United. So - BBC weren't happy about us winning the Championship and relegated us to 2nd, eh ? (Typical BBC) TBF I think they meant runners-up Man U will play also promoted... Mind - poor Blackpool - first game v Wigan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenham Mag Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Hughton was on SSN being asked about the fixtures. Said he "remained confident" that "the right players will arrive in the summer". 'Right' is such a subjective word. Does he define L.Best as the 'right player?' A statement like this slightly annoys me. He's speaking in puns. We're getting Wright-phillips, Bradley.

Decky Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Un-fucking-believable, Rooney will probably net his token goal or 2 against us with Owen getting at least 1 as well. Oh and Scholes will get his too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 You won't have to wait long for Jermaine to knock a couple past you. When the Merseyside brown sweets line up against the Tyneside thieving birds I expect Beckford not to playing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Its a mixed bag for me. Would've preferred a winnable first match and a nice run-in, however the run-in is half-impossible, half-winnable. Lets hope we're safe before those. The big shocker (in a nice way) is Boxing Day, and theres not a lot you can say about the rest. Lets rape the Premiership (Souness and Pardew style!)

MW Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Not happy with lots of the fixture dates, quite a few i fancied i won't be able to make. Fulham midweek is annoying, always a good day out. At least the 2 mackem games il be able to get to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Any idea when Sky usually do their first round of fucking about with everything? Not sure if I should wait for that before booking all the home games off work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should reply: Because you are an inconsiderate twat, and even if people turn up they are going to hate you and celebrate your pending divorce.
