Is there any chance at all Barry doesn't start? I already know the answer but thought I'd ask. Sadly a draw would be a good result here.

Southampton is the new Everton

Won the League have they?

 

[witchdoc187]

With all the negativity and lack of expectation we'll probably end up getting a result.

 

[Hellerad]

Hope we slot 11 and each and every Everton players reveals an undershirt that says: Welcome to Everton, Tadic.

 

[McBain]

Batter them like Savs you bloody blue bottlers.

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Can this be stuck in the transfer window thread mods?................oh hang on!nice preview from the bard of GOT,2-1 the toffs,who cares?have we signed anyone?!!!

 

[Jamo Martinez]

good stuff.

We really need Kone to find a burst of form like Jelavic in his first 4 months at the club.

Is that too much to ask?

Thought so.

3-0 to the mighty blues.

 

[Chozz]

Sad times when I'm dreading us playing @ Southampton. How the mighty blues have fallen.

Go on lads, surprise us.

 

[ijjysmith]

Oh god

 

[Moomin]

Not feeling confident, hopefully we can escape with a draw.

 

[coollino]

When's the international break then?

 

[Blue Cheese]

Nice one Chico.

Too early in the season to be proper fuming, opening day fixtures are always a bit iffy. What is frustrating is the Club bumbling around like Mr Bean all pre season again, when it was blatantly obvious what areas need addressing.

Anyway tough game this, I'm already swerving predictions as we are somewhat unpredictable. We play like marmite most of the time either fantastic or utter poo. Or maybe its vegemite, i've heard thats good for making moonshine and we play like we are pissed half the time.

 

[leelead]

Got a feeling we may get something from this. Possibly a 1-0 win in one of those somehow they managed to win games

 

[when i score we riot]

"Isolated like a kurdish city" - relevant, fitting, and certainly a little dark, certified funny that.

 

[Moomin]

If the rumours are true of Chelsea putting in a third bid and United to make an offer I can't see Stones being mentally right for the game.
