Bolton 0-0 Derby

Just over a week 'til the new season kicks off for us. Who is excited?

Me!

Well excited. My prediction 3-1 opening win.

Before all the doom and gloom merchants turn up I'll get my prediction in. 2-1 to us I reckon. I have a good feeling about it. No shite start this time like the last few seasons. NLSWA.

Lock the thread biggie. Four positive posters in a row is a new record. Lets not spoil it

They'll get pumped.........
































....up on adrenaline and go out and smash Derby about 6-0!!!

Can't see past a draw for this. Which id be happy with as I doubt Clayton, possibly Clough will start.

Unlikely that many of the younger players will feature. All our previous managers have tried to start the season testing the older, more experienced players and only when we get in trouble do they throw the youngsters into the fray. Still I'm hoping Neil will surprise us and do something different to avoid what the bookies seem to think will be a stroll for Derby.

if they are good enough they are old enough.  i'd be very surprised is clough/clayton/vela weren't all starting contenders (yes if they are still with us by then..............)

Clayton certainly won't start, he's played no part in pre season

fair enough, hopefully will get a run out against charlton tomorrow though

5-1 if we get the defence sorted.

it's look more and more promising with the full back situation and this italian fella.

Things finally starting to come together?

looks like it doesn't it boggers, top 6 here we come

Derby will rip is a new one. 

Quite clear when you look at the defensive mayhem we've endured at lower league clubs in pre season.

I didn't know derby county where a military outfit, but enough about how they will do against IS how do you think they will do against us

Typo-pedantry based humour.

I love it!

(Although that is technically my shtick - you do "comedy editing", but I'll let it slide just this once.)
