yeah nice to see the goals flying in.Hereford toning and the mighty reading on sat.Think MM will be starting with the 1st 11 against reading.If we can come away with a draw i will be well happy.
On a worrying note my season ticket aye arrived yet if it aye here by sat i am going to ring the club.

3-2 win tonight against hereford. largely 2nd 11 won with goals from elliott bennett, bothroyd and dan jones.

Swap with Hartson?

We playing all the same teams in friendlies or something? We played Hereford and Northampton as well and also sent out an almost 'second' team to Hereford

[retired_ehicks84]

we toured ireland, you went 'properly' abroad i believe. what a mighty strike force that would be, hartson & frankowski /o\

[retired_christy23]

meh, they should just retire and get old(er) and fat(ter) together

[retired_corriestout]

Not on their wages, on over £25k a week between them!

Yeah we went on a tour of 2 games

We are actually 2nd and 3rd favourites to win the league with nothing between us. I personally hope we both go up but if Albion don't then I hope you crash and burn as well, no offence!

[retired_christy23]

mate, people don't get paid after they retire

[retired_corriestout]

Yeah, I meant they shouldn't retire because of their wages. I wouldn't retire if they were them

If Hartson did retire AND kept those wages imagine how fat he would get!

3-2 defeat against reading in our final friendly. sounds like we played quite well. goals from olofinjana and bothroyd, who was immediately substituted for apparently making gestures at the bench. well done twatface.

in other news, matt murray is having investigative surgery on his knee. no doubt he will be out for approximately 2 and half years.

yippee. mon the season

[retired_christy23]

did you see the comedy mix-up between henessey and ward (I think) for one of the reading goals? showed it briefly on ssn, not sure if they're repeating it

tbf I think hennessey will do ok standing in for murray, gave a good account of himself in the playoffs and for wales so no reason why he shouldn't be able to handle regular first team football until murray gets fit again. bit worried about our level of backup though, ikeme is still a bit of an unknown quantity, and beyond that we've got lumley in the u18s who's supposed to be promising but he hasn't even had any reserve team football as far as I'm aware. we can only hope that hennessey isn't as fragile as murray is...
