    "....that Southampton and Boro finish in the top six!"

    I think that some managers are in denial here. We are a small fan base and we have to cut our cloth accordingly. While it might be OK for richer people to go betting a pint the most I am prepared to go to is a half. I've had some success in the past with such small quantites of beer and I'm confident I can make this a success. The sooner people realise that we have to bet according to our means the better. It might be inviting and expansive to go betting a whole pint but that way, we'd get slaughtered too quickly. The fans and I are developing, and can learn to live with a half once they get used to the system.

    ....and Leicester and anyone else who beats us no doubt...... trouble is there will be a lot more than six. Mr Hill appears to be a clown in the making.....if not yet in the 'Coco / Charlie Coroli' league.

    A Clown?

    For saying that Boro and Southampton will likely be in the top six??

    I think he's absolutely right on that - want to put a pint on it?

    I think you should reserve your insults until we see whether he is right or not or you could end up looking a tad silly. Personally I think he is right.

    I agree they will be top 6 BUT IF we play like we did in our first 2 games as the norm, or anything other than a massive improvement, we will lose a fair few more. Looking forward to seeing improvement on Saturday.

    No disputing that we were bloody awful against them both and this has to improve but their results against other teams suggest they will be there or thereabouts come the end of the season. See you tomorrow?
