Novo could start tonight, I'd like to see him up front with Boyd. Who knows, it might just work!

All over! Colchester 2-1 Preston. The run is over!

Aggh! Don't say that! I was at that game, we looked good when we took the lead, but then we just threw the game away. Hopefully we can keep it tight at the back and hit them on the break (this is presuming that we play the favoured 4-5-1 formation). I'd like to see us take the game to Pana and go at them from the very start, but alas that's not the way that WS wants us to play in Europe this season

Colchester are winning 1-0! Preston down to 10 men. I hope you didn't put the bet on...

I would have no qualms about Kirk Broadfoot playing in this game tomorrow. He has finally been given a run and deserves the opportunity. As someone said it would be a big kick in the teeth to him if he was dropped.

Do it! You know you want to...

D'oh! They were the most obvious ones that I forgot!

Preston are getting their form back. it could be worth a punt!

Arsene Wenger gets his team to play attractive attacking football. All the players are skillful and with good technical abilities. He can take a rough raw talent and within a couple of season he can turn them into a real gem. He also has an good eye for spotting talented youngsters and nurturing them (Fabregas, Flamini, Toure etc). The guy is a genius! I'm not an Arsenal fan, but I do remember Arsenal during the George Graham days, and they were awful. 1-0 to the Arsenal, with Donkey Adams booting everything that came near him into touch. Wenger came in and changed the whole mentality of the team, and the club. Now I'm not saying that Fergie is shit, but Wenger has now got Arsenal churning out talented youngsters every season. Whereas ManYoo's conveyor belt of talent seems to have slowed down, and Fergie tneds to spend a fortune on players (Hargreaves, Tevez, Carrick etc). Wenger dips into the transfer funds very rarely and only occassionaly gets it wrong (Baptista & Reyes).

It is proving to be one of the more frustrating things about watching Rangers in europe this season. Why do we play so defensively at home? Surely we should go out and attack them to try to guarantee an advantage in the second leg? As another poster has said Boyd can only prove himself worthy when given the chance.

I thought Crouch had scored in the first half, but the useless big twit put it wide!

Yeah I liked them too.

Liverpool first team squad with 53 players listed in it! But bear in mind about 10 of these guys are out on loan. Still a massive first team squad tho!

Not at the moment! Skertl had a good game tho, he has learned from the H&W game which is one plus point.

The thing is that ManYoo were shite last weekend against Spurs too, so that blows his theory out of the water.

Excuses excuses from Quieroz Boo hoo hoo! Poor ManYoo...

Altogether now. "You can stick your Kenny Miller up your arse!"

Exactly! I used to hate Arsenal (back in the George Graham era) but their style of play under Wenger is so easy on the eye, and he seems to be able to nuture talent well. Arsenal are lucky to have him!

Fecking right I would! His record is fantastic, and he can turn a donkey into a world class player (Adebayor).

Rafa hasn't been given the same level of cash as MU or Chelski recently, and with the Yanks effing about this season he only got Torres. Who is a better manager than Rafa who is available? Mourinho, is there anyone else who could do a better job? If that is true then they need to get rid of all the crap players in the summer. What is the point in having so many?

As long as Adebayor scores tomorrow I don't care. He's my FF captain.

That is being very generous Gav! They have been sh*t ever since they beat Marseille to qualify for the UCL knockout stage. A wee win today would go a long way to getting the season back on track tho!

And as usual they have all the chances but can't take any of them! Really wish Torres had been fit for this game, he's the only striker at the club who is showing any sort of form.

Well we can take advantage of it too. Pay �£750k for Cousin and then punt him for �£3million! Nice!

I just checked there and Santa Cruz cost Blackburn �£3.5million. He is a world class player and he cost less than Burnley want for a young unproven player from the Championship! FFS! The British transfer market is a crazy place!
