Wait til Big Bazz gets hold of you.

I'll go for another nicked point a la Forest and today.

Weston (please) to get the goal his season so richly deserves.

Nah. We're not allowed to sell any more players until the end of the season, Duke. :evil:

Tough call on Player of the Season I agree.

I've thought for a while that this would be the toughest game of our run in and given our abject form of late I am going for a 4-0 thumping.

Well I believe we have the beating of anyone in this league, but the current starting 11 couldn't beat an egg.

Whatever happens we need some big decisions to give ourselvs a fighting chance, (or should that be a chance of showing any fight?)

Out for me must go Roper, Wrack, and Betty, and probably Dobbo.

In must come ANother centre-half - hopefully a signing but failing that Smith.

Centre-midfield of Bradley and Sonko, Taundry and Holmes on the wings, and Nicholls or Deeney up-front with Mooney, unless we sign a striker.

Bench:

Bossu
Deeney/Nicholls
Ishy
Dobson
Roper

Lets have a go for pity's sake.

I am going to be there - but really think i am on a hiding to nothing.

Please, please Walsall FC give me something to feel proud about!

....but back to reality Southend to win by a couple.

Too right Geordie. Lets, for once, just take the game to the opposition and give them a bloody game. Let them do the worrying. None of this stupid tip-toeing around with snail-paced attacks that DD reverts to everytime he gets a bit paniky.

The is their form of the last 6 games continues, we'll get a draw. Personally, I think they'll just outmuscle us, but a couple of signings could make all the difference.

We're going to scrape a win with a single goal margin by hook or by crook and we can all start believing again just like the Accrington home game this time last year. :)

2-0.

And I'm predicting as has become usual of late, we'll be lucky to get nil.

But Maybe.

Arron Brown might spring a surprise and score a hat-trick...

But no, that won't happen.

Thinking back to how I felt before the Swindon away match and the result that followed I am going for a 2-0 win for the Saddlers. Mooney and Holmes to score.

just a hunch but a 2-0 win to the mighty saddlers - just to dangle the play off carrot in front of us all for another couple of weeks.

Will there be a big contingent on Chat? My first decent chance as my Olds get on the plane home Saturday evening (our time). Look forward to seeing any of you in there as I listen, probably with increasing despair, to SadWorld (presuming it works - imagine having to listen to some plastic cockney commentate!).

A much better performance is on the cards, but where are the goals going to come from?

1-0 defeat.

No Wrack tomorrow (or Dobson I dont think, possibly Sonko missing too). All change in midfield with Taundry coming in for deffo. I assume Ropes might be dropped - hope so!

If we win, I will pop round to Latvian's and dance partially naked as I am a bit shy!
