Two games in and already the results are all to pot. Leicester's 2-0 home defeat to Reading was great news, whilst a home defeat for Ispwich suggests their opening day result was misleading. McClaren is already under pressure at Forest and the Leeds fans will be calling for a new manager before you know it!
Sure Southampton, Brighton and Derby have all bagged six points from six but does anybody expect any of them to stay the course? In the case of the two promoted teams, they are high on adrenaline and Derby just aren't good enough.
The 1-0 reverse against Cardiff may not be the kick in our promotion cobblers that I thought it would prove. A 1-0 victory at Doncaster doesn't exactly set the pulses racing but Nolan scored, Cole is on his way back, Carew and McCartney will be available soon and Tomkins, for one, is looking very impressive at the back.
It's game on! Doctor Evil is off and running, typically with a 1-0 away victory!
dont forget winston reid and collison
ReplyDeleteThat picture's all wrong mate, but along with the title - LMAO. I don't even wanna imagine what you typed into Google Fan(ny)Man.
ReplyDeleteIt feels nice to win for a change (no matter how unconvincingly it sounded). Desperately need a finisher though! Still, it's a positive result and we've gotta start somewhere eh? So onward and upward you nervy IRONS!
Dave, that picture is so right!
ReplyDeleteYou're in danger of sounding optimistic.
ReplyDeleteAnd please stop using pictures of my mum for your blog.
If that's your mum, I'll give you a tenner to buy a bottle of tizer and some fish and chips providing you stay out of the house for a couple of hours.
ReplyDeleteNot the best performance by the sounds of it but a wins a win and it's good to be back eh? :)
ReplyDeleteI meant the picture from the 'Nightmare Never Ends' blog. She said make it two fish and chips and you can have her for free.
ReplyDeleteLOL, I think your Mum has eaten the entire chip shop!
ReplyDeleteIt's a huge relief Tommy! Now lets hope Carew has brought his shooting boots with him!
