We start in Perth, where the last time we avoided defeat was 1986 :-(

My first ever cup final. What a day that was :-)

We always lose at all the grounds :-(

I'd say Joe Root is currently a better player than he ever has been. He should score big runs there. Not worried about the runs so much

Agree on Atkinson and Stokes, but i think you have to play Archer in as many as possible- if he is bowling well. At his best, he is a different...

Not against us, in Australia. Where Mitch ****ing Marsh suddenly turns into Don Bradman :-(

The Who were mods who became rockers. And were a much better band when they did. I'd have been a rocker, if forced to choose. I'm not wearing a...

But anyone who believes the Divine, who created us and of which we are but a small part, doesn't want us {and therefore HIM} to have fun and enjoy...

Oh, I'm deffo a mod vs rockers. Love the Who and can ride a scooter but not a motorbike. Easy choice, before we even mention the clobber. Thing...

May well be something to do with how hard we work them without the ball. They are asked to press relentlessly and retreat and defend. I'd say they...

I want a captain who will help charm the refs. Rice is the best option. Refs like him. Sorry to say it but refs are going to have an issue with...

A mod or a rocker? I genuinely don't know :-)

Agree with that. So maybe just teach him to press well and keep the shape defensively, and just think it will be those moments of magic when they...

Would you have been a Roundhead or a Cavalier, P? Genuinely interested?

He's articulate and intelligent, bit like Odin but speaking in his first language. Well bought up lad so he's polite. Also perhaps the biggest...

TBF, I think thee only time since we started challenging when we saw what the squad was capable of was the half season before the WC after we'd...

Maybe Arsenal forwards aren't built to play professional level football. That's 7 {might even be 8} in 3 months. {Actually only 7, I think - B,...

Right, but he probably will go through the season without getting injured. He usually does. Whereas we cant keep one striker out of three fit...... ...

Face it! We are going to have to win at City. With Michael Oliver refereeing. Win that and you deserve a title. :-)

Oh absolutely. Definitely. Just like last season, and the season before. More chance of me flying to the moon wearing a Spurs shirt.

Well, if nobody else is going to beat them, we will just have to do it ourselves. I wonder if Michael Oliver will referee that game...... :-(

What else are you going to do? Ice skating? Collecting stamps? Civil war reenactment? Have to find something to waste your life on. Football...

We really think we can't beat Spurs? Or Chelsea? Let's see what happens between now and then. At the very least, we should have Martinelli and...

I can't remember:-(

Right. In that split second the game speeded up and he had space, and knew what to do. We know he can do that. He's a very different player to...

Half of them back would be great. Imagine only having three forwards injured- heaven :-) We have no idea yet what this squad is capable of, and...

Don't underestimate the little things. For are equaliser, his pass to MnM was perfectly weighted. That gave MnM time to control the ball and delay...

I'll judge us when we've got everyone back. If we can lose no more to injury and get those crocked back quick, and to their bests, then we can see...

Last season was the big opportunity and we blew it. This season is going to be harder. But I still don't think City are quite there just yet. That...

Flying isnt good for knee or muscular injuries:-( We'd probably lose three more players before we landed.
