Main forum purleeeeze!

We'll be there, new ground for Kev - doesn't seem right to be starting the season with a cup tie, but hey ho...come on you BLUES! Someone tell them the history with Barry Fry, which might give them a bit more incentive!

 

[MK Shrimper]

To be honest...meh.

Can't remember the last time we had an away game for the first game of the season so making the most of this one! Have family in P'boro so leaving Surrey in the next hour...much like you TB very much buzzing!

Can't see us getting anything. Champ side and strong at home. No keeper in place and no centre midfield of note. Not a great start to the season. Important not to get spanked though with Saturday in mind. Looking forward to the game though.

I fear a heavy defeat. We just look too lightweight in midfield, need a brick sh*thouse to break play up and collect the ball from the defence. Without Mohsni there is no height in the attacking areas either. People may deride Luggys style of play last season but we got 83 points. I wonder if Moshni and Grant's absence this season will hit us hard.

Other teams got promoted without playing that style, so its not the only way to get points. Im much more interested in getting a midfielder who can use the ball, we have been seriously lacking in passing ability.

We still have Barry Corr (hopefully) if we need to be more direct.

Tonight for me is another friendly, would be good to get a good performance to take into Saturday.

I think we're going to get hammered. But each time last season we went into an away when I really thought we'd get hammered we picked up a win. So I'll go 1-0 to Southend.

I'm looking forward to the game, as it's a new ground for me, but I'm not as excited as normal. I think it down to a mix of the Olympics, and the fact Luggy seems to be treating this fixture with 0 importance.

We will lose tonight, hoping it's not too heavily.

Beef if i'm reading you right you need to change that ending to "we ARE going to get hammered" as when you thought it last season we won
