[blunted]

I can imagine a delayed showing in Kyrgyzstan is going to be a ratings blockbuster

My family (males) will watch any football on the box. Even will watch up the park with no affiliation.

Looking at the dots maybe approximate attendance of 16-18k tommorow unless a massive walk up with all DK's exciting transfers.

I genuinely that's a commendable attendance.
Well done our fans who are travelling

 

[CovValleyBoy]

I know Saturday night TV wtf... that one where they sing in a costume...just fk off

 

[Nuskyblue]

,

Just saw the Cardiff goal last night. Can’t think of any of our available players who’d finish that, which is a worry because it wasn’t the hardest.

That's what she said.

Looks like a quick flight out to Kyrgyzstan then. (Anyone know where the hell it is?)

I spent a cold and long winter in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan back in 2004(?).
Lovely views of the Himalayas.
Infrastructure was still very 1960s Soviet at the time.
Smallcountry in between Kazakhstan and China, central Asia.

It was over 17K sold before today

Where did you read that?

I wouldn't object to that starting line up. The Cup should not be top of the agenda

Just not sure they need a rest more than another game practicing what the coaches are teaching.

True but another injury would not help

You wash your mouth out! The club needs a cup run, etc. etc.

A run of 90 minutes is ok by me.

 

[Tommo1993]

Don’t mind us being knocked out at all tomorrow. Keep the game close though, don’t get pumped.

100%

Fuck that. Need to start winning football matches not accept losing them.

 

[Tommo1993]

Fuck that. Need to start winning football matches not accept losing them.

And nobody would care less if we lost tomorrow but beat Bristol C.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

I’d play mostly the first team here. Could experiment a bit with a 5-3-2 while we haven’t got EMC.

Think it’s valuable time for them to keep learning on the pitch

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Collins
Eccles Kitching Binks Dasilva
Torp Allen Rudoni
Tavares BTA Raphael

I’d adapt that to a 5-3-2 personally. Thomas/Lati at RCB and play Simms and BTA up front.

I doubt Rapha is ready to start a game yet.

 

[CovValleyBoy]

City odds on to win.
Sheff Weds a massive almost 3/1.
Extraordinary from the bookies !!!

 

[Tile Hill Phil]

Just think no ECW cup for us in 1987 either . San Siro is on my buc

I’ll never forgive them scouse wankers for getting English clubs banned from Europe. Would love to have seen my club play in Europe

We are unbeaten at home in Europe.
Saw us beat Trakia Plovdiv 2-1 or 2-0 then beat Bayern Munich ( West Germany basically )2-1

Villa v W Ham,and the Hammers fans singing something along the lines of' Big Fat Franky Lampard'

haven't you heard? there's a plane full of incoming transfers, apparently.
i have it on good authority.

I was trying to pick the worst lineup I could tbf

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Thought what if we start like this.

Allows Dasilva and Binks some time. Sakamoto playing there gives Milan a break.

Me too. Luckily didn't see the first Bayern leg.

 

[oscillatewildly]

16-18k will be a good crowd. There will be a decent 'walk up' with people bored on a January Saturday.

Well, you say a 'Saturday' but it will almost be a bloody Sunday (no pun intended and I know anniversaries are close) by the time we kick off.
Anyway, I take it we're all meeting up down the Sword 11.30 tomorrow?

Another week of earning a lot of money from the bookies.

 

[oscillatewildly]

Well that's closer to me now!
We should meet, Wingy.
You'll know who I am - I'll be wearing an original Singers FC all black kit.
Maybe also an original Singers FC blanket as it's still gonna be like an eskimo's fridge tomorrow.

Nah, I was joking mate about the anniversary bit.

 

[Skybluekyle]

Going to the game tomorrow as I've never actually sat in the West Stand.

Do I get my complimentary reacharound before or after the game? Also, do they do a halftime croissant?

Nah - just kick it for a ticket.
Get yourself on the pitch but don't forget your crampons.

Prefer the West Stand .
