We'll set up a little ball park in one of the corners and they can play their little hearts out in there :wink:


I'll drop off my 3 year old. What time :D His first match was Shrewsbury at home and he slept through the first half. Didn't think it was that bad myself.


My eldest used to fall asleep when he first started going. It was the Colin Lee era so it's probably understandable.

*Whoo, cat amongs the pigeons* :D


I fell asleep many a time in those days

I really can't decide whether or not to go :?

Does anyone else think £12 is a bit steep for a pre season match?

Tenner would have been a more realistic price, but i guess i have been missing the football enough to pay it

I think we will lose 3-1!

It is Blues first pre season game in England, so they should bring a fair few! A first chance for us and them to see our new signings!

In all fairness to them, they do have good away support. But I doubt whether they will sell all 5,000 tickets.

My only prediction would be that we won't score:

WALSALL 0

4-2 To the blues, i reckon like the villa they will probBably put a very good side out - bar a few.

Attendance im NOT sure, i'd be inclined to think around 4,500.

But if thje blues bring 4 - 5k , then id say probably around 7,409

Well I must start to do the lotto.

I predict Weston for Wrack on the opening day provided he has recovered from injury.

I presume Dann is injured?

I dont understand why people would be sad to lose!

I have just looked at their team and it is premiership class. I will just be happy if we play football that is a good standard to our level! I await the match reports!

Agreed , i was hoping Blues sent a good team out , a gave us a good work out , the score means nothing.

As long as we beat the Villa :wink:

A bit late now, but the game is live on WM.

Caneiro for Butler
Ishy for Sonner (Fox to centre midfield)

Where was Sonko?

According to Talksport Blues dominated the first half but the second was 'more open' mentioning that Mooney, Hall, Caniero, Dobson and Ishy all had chances, the latter producing a fine save out of the keeper.

I await feedback with interest.

Sonko had a sligtly tight hamstring so will be rested until Kiddy game.

So I take it it finished 2-0?

You take it correctly - as it were. 2-0.
