I'm tired of pretending to be 'realistic'. I'm tired of talking about 'making progress' and 'challenging for the top four'. I'm tired of being a balanced fan, trying to offer informed, balanced opinions. The realistic thing about football is that things often happen that aren't realistic.

All the talking, the bullshit, the balanced analysis, and the prediction giving is over. It's game on time and we'll continue doing unrealistic things in football, so let's go out and batter this lot. Not because they're cunts, not because we hate them, but because they're in our way. You're not going to stop this train, boys, so either get out of the way or you'll be run down.

Thank God the summer is over, talking can start on the pitch instead of on the internet. Boots on, it's time to win.

 

[Ryan]

This is the day most of you get to see how good Joe Allen ready is, followed by a chalkboard analysis from me.

You don't know how lucky you are.

 

[C/O]

Ryan, you're really putting your neck out on this one.
Not that there's much doubt he'll be great, more that you're talking about him a lot.

 

[Dahuge]

I think we'll win this, there will be a few scary moments but overall a fairly comfortable 1-2 win for us.

 

[Fabio]

0-2

POW

Can't wait. Will watch him like a hawk. If he plays.

 

[Ossi]

Where's Enrique? Injured?

[Squiggles]

Prison?

1 - 4 my usual first day grossly optimistic prediction

but honestly, I just want to see us play some attractive football this season

suarez 2, gerrard and borini

 

[Fabio]

Everyone thinks suarez will get 2

I think borini is more likely to get it done as he's such a poacher

 

[hmmmmm1]

Hope we can start the season we a clean sheet.

Borini to score

 

[mark1975]

Tough game I reckon, 2-1 to us. Downing and a defender, ass man to come on and tear them a new one.

 

[Modo]

No offence, but wouldn't it be better if this thread was locked until the game started and keep all pre match talk/banter in the other WBA - Liverpool thread.

 

[Markeh]

suarez is due a double it's his day

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

1-1

 

[Vlads Quiff]

I like Outlaws gung-ho post, as I have said on many occasions supporting any team, particularly Liverpool is not a logical controlled thing- thank Christ


We have to get points in the bag in this one given the couple of games coming up at home.
I think we will too 0-3

Yawn

I like Outlaws gung-ho post

I'm just tired of trying to be objective. I want our team to go there, get off the bus and kick down the fucking door of the stadium before checking whether or not it's unlocked. We're here now, so fuck off out of it. I want a Suarez shaped hole in the defender.

I feel like we've been going through the motions since 2009. I want brute force and intelligence.

 

[Fabio]

Nahh

 

[Modo]

Well then, carry on.

1 hour and 18 minutes to go!!!!!

Shut up ya girl.

 

[Fabio]

MODO tell me, what are your expectations for this game?

 

[Ryan]

Ryan, you're really putting your neck out on this one.
Not that there's much doubt he'll be great, more that you're talking about him a lot.

I've been banging on about him for about 2 years though mate, so this ain't new.

He's my type of player hence my excitement I guess.

 

[Outlaw]

Shut up ya girl.

Fuck this, I'm tellin'.

 

[Ossi]

I'm feeling wild and crazy. 0-5.

 

[tombrown]

I think we need a proper match thread before the games starts.

No offence, but wouldn't it be better if this thread was locked until the game started and keep all pre match talk/banter in the other WBA - Liverpool thread.

Make your mind up! 🙂

 

[Fabio]

As I said somewhere else, i dreamt 1-5/0-5 to us, but honda and kagawa scored

sooooooooo

not betting on that
