Yeah but it's my first day of the season today.

The Rangers seem to be playing some decent stuff under Warburton.
They look a lot fitter and appear to be actually trying to win matches.

Taking my two boys down to see Colchester v Blackpool today. Had a reasonable pre season until we got stuffed 3-0 at home by Leyton Orient so not sure what to expect this afternoon.

First game I will be going to is dirty Leeds next Sunday. Not sure why we are playing on a Sunday when not on tv.
Still need a striker, but the rest of the team is shaping up. Predict we will finish 10th with the current team, but a decent striker .......:mmm:

Unbelievable Jeff.
Fulham get a point away from home. Madness and clearly a lull before a very big storm no doubt. Still above reading so early season bragging rights at work cometh Monday

Mixed emotions about today's game v Blackpool. For the first twenty minutes they were much the better side and we could've been 3 before we scored the first equaliser. Stood off them just before half time to let them score again but felt we were the better team in the second half and had a couple of good chances to win it.
Overall happy enough with a draw which was probably a fair result. And the added bonus is that we played better today than any time I saw us play last season.

I had no idea what to expect form today's game, I haven't even heard of most of our team, so a draw away is a decent result, good to see in Mark Cullen we have someone who knows where the goal is.

Redshaw also looked very good for you guys. Won't be at all surprised to see you cahllenging for the play off places. Not sure who you have to come in to the team but you did seem to be lacking in height up front today.
Would like to see us bring in another forward before the transfer window closes as we still haven't replaced Freddie Sears after letting him go to Ipswich last season.
Was amusing today that the stewards were asked by the linesmen not to wear orange bibs to avoid any clash/mistakes with the Blackpool shirts. Not sure if they realised that the new Col U away kit is orange and there were hundreds of them in the stands today.

Good start for the MK Dons. Top tier team in the making. 
Hopefully win a few quid off them again this season, I've done very well from their efforts the last couple of seasons (Man U game in particular netting a small fortune).
Away the Dons.

Nice win away at Blackburn for Wolves, even though we were very fortunate with the winner.
Anybody seen the football league highlights on channel 5? What an absolute mess. I don't understand how you can mess up a show where you just need to show the goals...but they've certainly managed it

That new show on channel 5 is one of the worst pieces of sports broadcasting I've ever seen!! There was nothing wrong with the one on the BBC but that seemed to come under a lot of criticism for some reason?
Absolutley no need for a live studio audience and the wooden league tables at the end were a joke! Hopefully they take all the criticism on board and change it. Twitter was in meltdown last night with league fans.

My only gripe with the bbc version was the time at which it was shown. Far too late.
Nobody had anything positive to say at all on twitter, I'd be very surprised if it isn't completely revamped within weeks

Can't wait for the season to start next Saturday.
I missed it. Was it really that bad?

It was terrible. I go to most Leeds games so dont watch it to see their goals but I have a genuine interest in all the leagues in the football league so I like to see all the goals across the 3 leagues but I doubt I'll be watching it again.

Good start for BWFC yesterday, unlucky not to win after hitting the bar 3 times but still a solid start.
Got some bite back in the team now and some good youngsters. Looking forward to seeing how we develop over the season
