The Decemberists 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2005 I don't even know if Sky do games as low down as League One, I've never needed to check before. In some worrying news, Chris Kamara has predicted we'll get promoted. Suddenly all my confidence has vanished... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deancoles 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2005 They do live stuff from this Div once every few weeks, we've got 2 games so far, at home against Colchester on September 3rd and away at Swindle on 11th November(switched to a Friday night) Kammy's league Table last season was pretty dodgy, Luton were 15th and Bradford 21st, the only decent guess he had was Hull 2nd.

PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2005 I was surprised we were able to get him. Is there anything on the DVD specifically about them falling out? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No but on the extras, whilst Warnock says Cullip was at fault for something, Cullip completely disagrees, and when Warnock goes 'Well I didn't see that...' before turning to someone else, you just hear 'Must not have had your specs on then..' before an odd hush around the dressing room. He later tells Cullip to 'fuck off if you're gonna moan'. It wasn't meant to be, I don't think. I don't think Neil likes anyone who questions his mighty position, but then I'm biased. Tune in to see Warnock's anti-tactics in action against Leicester on sky, in what promises to be an absolutely unwatchable game of non-football. That said, I think united's signings will see them through that one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Decemberists 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2005 Megson's said today that Cullip's someone who'll always have an opinion on everything, and won't be scared to have a go at someone if he think they're at fault for something, so I'd guess he knows what he's getting. Having said that we'll probably sell him in January after he has a fight with Meggo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2005 Leicester are losing. Rallying cry that I hope gets answered, we need all the TSM'er's who aren't at a game today in this thread while the matches are playing.

Addy 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2005 Well, we've got our first result of the new season, and the Blades have just cut through Leicester, 4-1. GREAT start. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I went on Paddy Power and put two bets on this match at half time. £2.50 on David Connolly for next goal [8-1] and £2.50 on Sheff Utd to win 3-1 [14-1]. First bet comes up and I feel a have a chance for the second. Of course United went 3-1 up with 5 minutes left but Leicester fell to pieces and conceded again in the 90th. Fuck. Still bagged 20 odd quid though (then blew £7.50 on the Southampton match). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kylegavin Report post Posted August 7, 2005 Hey all...just come back from holiday. Since I've been away Birmingham have managed to bag Pandiani on a permanent basis aswell as signing BUTT on loan...the new team is as follows: taylor melchiot upson cunningham clapham pennant BUTT izzett dunn forssell heskey sub: vaesen, martin taylor, damien johnson, stan lazaridis, pandiani. I really do have high hopes for this team. I think on the opening day of the Championship season cograts have to be offered to Coventry and Luton, from what I have seen the results achieved have been deserved.

k thx 0 Report post Posted August 7, 2005 Man this cricket stuff is tense. As shallow as it may be, I'll probably follow the championship more than usual this season due to the presence of Southampton. Mainly to see Redknapp slowly unravel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Damn You Helmsley Report post Posted August 7, 2005 Agreed on Harry. The man is simply vile. He expected loyalty from Crouch. Yeah, that's rich coming from you, bud. He'll surely be one of the first managerial casualties of the season, along with Souness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted August 7, 2005 Strachan's got to be in the running. We drew 0-0 at Stoke, as predicted, cos whilst defensively solid they've sold their goalscorer and ours is fucked. They missed a penalty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted August 9, 2005 You know, I'm actually really, really worried. We could be bottom at christmas. I think we'll get a fair few draws, but until Proudlock and Talbot come back we are REALLY gonna struggle for goals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anorak 0 Report post Posted August 9, 2005 I watched the Sheff Utd game in a pub on the Isle of Wight. Sat with an older Birmingham fan who was a nice bloke and after a few pints I was even able to just about shrug off that bizarre defeat. We were the better side for 80 minutes, played all the football and then it just all fell apart in ridiculous fashion. Our midfield looks promising, bossing it on saturday without Hughes and Tiatto but it'll be wasted if a fit Dublin is sat on the bench and De Vries is missing chances left and right. We might have found out already why no premier team stepped in to get Rab Douglas ahead of us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
