12.30? What a shitty time to kick off!

Anyway I'd happily take a 0-0 but I think there's also a chance we could win this. The defence has been solid for two months and without Viera Jay Jay and Youri are going to run the midfield. Everything depends on how well Pedersen plays but to be honest I'd feel more comfortable with Andre or Facey up front. We're bound to create a hatful of chances but we need to convert them!

Gardner in for Charlton due to injury

I think it'll be 1-0, I won't say who to.

Thank you Bolton! Okocha is a joy to watch. That little scoop/lift he did to evade a defender and then the rainbow off the short corner. What a gem.

2-2

Jay Jay's been doing that for months, it's great


The bad news is we've lost Laville for the Boro game, two yellow cards for two fouls; pathetic. If he went the Henry should have gone, not that either should have been booked in the first place.

We won't get the credit we deserve for this game but our form in the last 8 or so games has been outstanding. I'd say we're at least a mid table Premiership team now but people only see our league position, suppose it means they underestimate us. Since Laville turned up and Jay Jay settled in we've looked solid, all we lack is true threat to the opposition's goal. Speaking of which I see we were most dangerous when Pedersen was off and Andre and Ballesta were on. I have we can keep Andre and perhaps Ballesta too, I get the feeling they may be the missing links once they're settled in. Much like Okocha.

I don't want to start speculating on next season before this one's over but I'm concerned about the board... I leave it at that for now.

If I'd posted yesterday I would have been on a high but we obviously still have much work to do after the West Ham game today. Thanks Schmeichel. Great to see him cuddling Trevor Brooking after the game. Obviously really down about the goal and his team losing.
Still, important to remember that we STILL have the advantage. The next game will be weird because so much will depend on what has happened before in the game West ham have against Chelsea. Unreal preparation.
We are playing so well though and just need to maintain it for 2 more games even though I would hate it to go to the last game.
We all know how special Okocha is and it seems amazing that some people are only just switching on to this.
Lavilles red card a disgrace but everybody knows this. If everyone got sent off who made 2 fouls in a game the game would die tomorrow.
I can't stand the tension so I don't know how the players manage!
Anyway, Prenn, tried to follow the Cubase /Cakewalk talk on another website but got a bit lost. Sorry!

Oh, I know he is incredible. I don't care if you know already or not, the rainbow over the defender is amazing!

Great to see you appreciated it from Cathcart Towers. Hope there is chance to revel in 1 or 2 more before seasons end although we will only be able to truly savour once we know we are safe.

Leeds must be relegated!



I don't see West Ham getting out of this. They need to get a win against Chelsea, I can't see that happening. All we have to do is pick up a point. I think Boro may be 3 in the bag but my money is on Southampton; anyone want to get injured before the FA Cup final? Thought not.
