Hadn't made a prediction because I've been feeling pessimistic all week, but hey-ho the sun is shining and Butler is back.

I'll go for a 1-0 home win with Butler scoring.

Its all gone Pete Tong.

1-2, ball off post, into Claytons back and over the line.

Has our guardian angel gone off for an ice cream, or something?

Been busy today and guess what two things:

1. Walsall losing
2. Saddlers World not working again.

Last chance saloon for both of these I think!

Saddlersworld working ok for me. However, that's probably a bad thing!

Glad I didn't make the 400mile round trip today. I was so close to doing so.

Before the sending off it sounded like we were going to get beat fair and square, anyway.

As it stands, only Gillingham and Leeds below us.

OK, someone explain.... 20 minutes to go, we're losing 1-3 and we need to attack.

So DD takes off Ishy (who seems to have had a good game) and brings on Fox. I don't follow.

I said before the season started that this squad isn't good enough and was shot down in flames when idiots were saying that we were gewin up. lets face facts we are in for a struggle and please don't shout at me and the likes of tinned for telling the truth rather than blind optimism. we have been here before and desperatly need to strengthen the squad.

We're playing 4-3-2. Surely we may as well have a go, and play 3-3-3??

Oooh, it's okay - Carneiro's coming on. Great. The guy wind me up big stylee last week. I aint hanging around to listen to that bag of poo be totally ineffective.

Bye. See you all for the Gills game..

Sonko seems to be a barrel of laughs... coming on as sub, he gets booked in the 76th minute, and then he fouls Robinson 25 seconds later - has the whole team got a death-wish :?:

It appears that Clayton is covering for Ropes - Robinson tried to lob him from 35 yards :lol:
