Tom

Need to win a couple of league games now or Tony could go into this under a lot of pressure. On the flip side, was the last manager to see us beat them Big Sam? He could really win over any doubters if we put them to the sword

I'll be in disneyworld whilst the tie is played, give em hell!

Honestly would have rather avoided them, just highlights how far we've fallen to face them as massive underdogs

Mulgrew is such a classy player but I've never seen him play a game at the back and not get caught out, he should be in front of the back four but not sure we can accommodate him there or have anyone else to play at the back!

Some decent passing on display there, Mulgrew pathetic for their goal though.

A clean sheet would have been nice but it sounds like we did our bit and their keeper kept it respectable. Job done

Perfect, that's what you want from these games

The captain at the back doesn't seem too amazing at organising the defence

Yes we're going to win the Carribean Cup! edit - no we're not

Bloody hell thats a manic 9 minutes

So is this the league cup or some lower league thingy?

Looks like his twitter may have now been hacked and posting messages he sent to a girl saying how badly he's messed up and wants to kill himself. Not a great 24 hours for him here

Are you bantering?

Problem is keepers like him breed a lack of confidence. Defenders not trusting their keeper is dangerous and Raya has to make sure he has the respect and trust of our lot which isn't always easy for a young lad

And spills a daisy cutter and gets away with it

May mean nothing but Alan's tweet has been deleted

My hope is it's at the rumour stage and Alan mentioned it so the fans got wind and could show their disapproval before it got too far - not that it ever makes a difference Alan is an absolutely top bloke I wish more in the game had his integrity

He could be the best coach in the world (he isn't) but he is forever tainted with the smell of dodgy agents.

Got mine - my dad paid #NAPM

Head of academy then at first opportunity mowbray will be forced out and Ali promoted from within. All part of the plan?

It's come from Alan Myers he has a lot of respect for us so wouldn't do that

Heeeeeeeeee's back! uh oh

So Zelda is amazing, only a few hours in but feels a proper adventure

Got myself a switch on Friday once I came to terms with the fact that I'm buying it almost exclusively as a train zelda machine I'm fine with it! That being said I picked up mario kart and me and the boy have had some fun with it, nice to have 2 controllers (of sorts) out of the box.

Absolutely we all have reason to be negative and suspicious, I'm also reserving the right to be positive about isolated things and take them at face value. For the league we are in I will say for me Dack and Whittingham are the most exciting signings since Rhodes. Both potential risks but both would be welcomed by every other club in the league. I know it's all relative and it's shocking that it is where we are now but I can't recall the last time we actually took a player from a team that wanted to keep hold of them. I'm worried what's around the corner but looking forward to the season as well.
