Opening day tomorrow in Liverpool. What a difference a year makes. A year ago this month Joe wrote, "Save my club!" "What club?"


John_W_Henry John W. Henry
Well, we haven't saved anything yet, just set a new course in the deep waters of English football. We feel very, very fortunate to be here.

If Aurelio is injured then Enrique is in line for his debut no?

Are we likely to get early team news on the forum this season now that Sammy Lee has left the club?

[size=36pt]IM SOOOOOO FUCKING EXCITED!!!![/size]


Im gonna have a premier league class wank in a bit.

Really important we get off to a flyer this year,and with an impressive commanding performance to set the tone for the next few games. I fear a scrappy slow start will heap too much pressure early on. Obvious i know but a good win with good performances from the new boys will go a long long way to how we do this season, i think a good win tomorrow could see us go on a nice little run.
Adam is the key for me tomorrow as i think Sunderland will look to defend and hit on the counter. If Adam performs he can pick that defence apart, Suarez should slot straight back in. If those two play well and Enrique has good debut i see us winning well. I am going for 3-0 Suarez Carroll and a debut goal for Adam with a trademark free kick.

 

[iseered]

that would be very nice indeed. i expect a win of course, but i dont expect magical football. i fear it may take some games for all our new boys to gel. i think we will see a fair number of passes into empty space, and at times some nervous hoofing to carroll. welcome to the site!

 

[Hansern]

According to Dave Usher and Tony B, there seems to be starts for Suarez, Kuyt, Spearing and Enrique.
Aqua, Cole and Soto arent in the squad.

 

[Sunny]

It's the first match of the new season and it's on a Saturday, at home, at 3 O Clock. Get in there. I'm all excited. Come on boys, let's have a good start to the season and play like we want it.

 

[Rosco]

It's going to be great.

 

[dmishra]

Super excited. Been thinking about this all week.

 

[23carragold]

Cannot believe I am stuck in work all day. This thread will just about keep me sane.

Keep me updated boys.

 

[Cerberus]

PISSFLAPS!

Our great push for the Premier League title begins today.

[size=36pt]Come On You Mighty Reds!!!!!!!![/size]

 

[FoxForceFive]

Here's how excited I am.

They've just rolled out wifi to every room in our hotel last night. Instead of sitting sunbathing by the pool I'm on the balcony so I can come on here & stream SSN to myself.

Fuck I'm excited, there's a Liverpool fan owned bar right opposite that I will be frequenting from 2pm GMT.

COME ON REDMEN!

Hahaha, I'd love to, but I'd be lying....

TBF the main reason was to put tv shows on for Luke, he watches kids shows whilst we get ready in the morning & evening, we'd have struggled without it, iPad plus Tv out cable plus Jake & the neverland pirates equals peace & quiet!

Besides, what kind of geek would I have been otherwise!

 

[Jürgen4PM]

I've got a good feeling about today, we're going to batter them.

Spearing in for Him who must not be named. Interesting.

 

[23carragold]

We're all being very positive.

*starts to worry*

 

[furyoo]

I'm bloody excited. In Singapore the match starts at 10pm so it's going to make for a great evening. Will be at my fiancee's but this morning I woke up, told myself fuck it and shelled out a bit of dough to watch the match on my phone. Can't wait.


And God bless mobile streaming.

[Jürgen4PM]

Is that the side or just Jono's team?

If it is the actual side then where is Ming?

Getting up At half six in the morning over in Canada to hit the pub to watch it. Now that's dedication.

Knew Jon Fox must have been on Hols, the geek forum is gone to the dogs without him.
