I wont be able to make this game as me and big baz senior are going corparte at the home of wolverhampton wanderers. We will be drinking free booze and free food while soaking up the atmosphere inside the super footballing arena that is the molineux. I love the molineux.
Also i know longer describe or think of myself as a true walsall fan. My mate says im not anyway.

You love Molineux? Why? Ignoring all the usual Wolves-related banter, I think it's a terrible ground to watch football at. The stands are set so far back from the pitch that you need a telescope to see what's happening on the far side of the pitch. The empty corners also seem to allow much of the atmosphere to escape. Of the "big" grounds in the West Midlands, Molineux is probably my least favourite - the Hawthorns and Villa Park are much better.

Walsall boss Richard Money should have striker Tommy Mooney and captain Michael Dobson available after injury at the weekend.
And the manager is still itching to field Mooney and fellow veteran Martin Butler as a strike partnership for the first time.
Money said: “We’ve been waiting for the last two or three weeks to get Tommy Mooney back on the pitch and I genuinely believe that when he and Tommy Mooney are playing together they will be a handful for anybody in this division.
“Edrissa Sonko coming back from international duty is a big boost and getting an hour for him on the pitch on Saturday was a big boost for us.
“Hopefully Michael Dobson will be better this week, which will be another boost for us and things are just calming down a bit.”

:lol: Offer Here,
I see their reserves got spanked by Leicester @ home 0-3.
Hughes was surposed to play but had a slight knock, they played ricketts, scoreline tells that story.
They really are struggling are definately there for the taking.
Bottom of the league with 2 REAL WRONG UN"S IN THE SIDE.
Lets batter them.
UTS
:o Offer

I dont know if it really is Baz. Afterall baz never uses punctuation and never starts a sentence with a capital letter, somehow I think someone else is using Baz's log-in details.

Walsall v Oldham
Walsall veteran Ian Roper is available despite suffering a head injury, while Michael Dobson is back in the squad.
Troy Deeney could start up front after coming off the bench to net a winner against Millwall last Saturday.
Oldham's Michael Ricketts has recovered from a groin problem whilst Birmingham loanee Neil Kilkenny is touch and go following a thigh injury.
Lee Hughes is also fit, but goalkeeper Les Pogliacomi is out again because of his recurring knee problem.

I'll go for 2-0 tomorrow, Butler and Mooney to get the goals, leading to claims from DD that we now have "The strike force that excites the fans" that we've been being promised all summer. 6,483 attendance with 629 coming from Oldham and a few Baggies fans tagging along to "welcome" Lee Hughes :wink:

So the bet is you think it will be less than 5,983? Lets make it easier and call it 6,000.

Okay, so less than 6k and you buy me a beer, more than 6k and I buy you one? I'll take that.
