With a couple of decent signings, who knows.

Without a couple of decent signings, we'll get beat 2 or 3 nil.

I just hope the trains are running on Saturday. I need 3 or 4 Hobgoblins in the Saddlers Club for anasthetic purposes.

Walsall 2 - 1 Swindon

Walsall to score first 2 goals before half time, Swindon to score theirs early in the second half. Attendance 3,651. Grigg and Butler on the score sheet in that order.

On another note, Swindon have had their transfer embargo lifted and I would expect them to arrive with reinforcements due to their injury and suspension list.

Up the Saddlers (let's run this drastically bad run)!

Go for it, £100 bet essential, I've also been offered 4-1 odds by Betfred for Lincoln to beat us on Tuesday, some serious money to be made this weekend lads....NOT that I would ever bet against my team of course!
Think Swindon should hit 5 at least, we will probably reply in injury time with a Grigg goal, after Swindon fall asleep with boredom.

5-1 away win is 100 to 1, at Corals

5-1 with Grigg scoring in 90th minute, is 54000 to 1

Predictions 1H - 1D - 8A [so far] Oh dear, why all the pessimism, what on earth has Smith done to deserve this lack of faith after our improbably good start to the season? Anybody might think that there is a secret club who couldn't wait for him to fail.

I'm hoping for a resounding home win as usual and Smith to be manager for ever and ever in the hope that I don't get labelled as a member of this mysterious mythical club despite recent results, our squad of midgets and no plan B. PERIOD

You seem to have discovered a new word. Is PERIOD the new FACT?

Apparently it, well the physical product of it, has been used as a misnomer by some to label anyone who dares to question 'Smiths way or none' and quite frankly I do find it amusing.

Feel free to adopt it whenever either you are frustrated that others can't see your point of view or to mock others in a childish way.

Maybe its that time of the month when we can actually score more than the other team and win?

Although we did miss that period in October. That's worrying.

I will be keeping abreast of the score by text message at Twickenham. I really hope it's not a repeat of Tuesday night, but I've got a bad feeling about this...

Smith is interviewed in the Express & Star today and says that the club have taken inspiration from Bradley Wiggins' Olympic triumph by getting on their bikes for a team bonding session.

Let's hope this men's trial cycle does the trick.

Not great timing, Wiggins has just been knocked off his bike, take that how you like.

Anyone care to hazard a guess at what the team will be?

I'll go for:

Grof
Taundry Holden Butler Benning
Mantom Chambers Baxendale Paterson Hemmings
Grigg

NB. I don't necessarily want that to be the team, but that's my prediction.
