Hopefully Avram doesn't have us worked out. But we've moved a lot further than his era now.

Worked out? He has barely worked out how to tie his laces up :)

This has turned into an important match for us on the back of 4 games without a win, plus added that United have now caught us up although we have the game in hand. We need to see a professional concentrated performance tonight and hopefully a good few goals too...

Tbh, I dont see why should everyone take a pot shot at him. He is a nice guy, hasnt done bad to the Club, it wasnt his fault Jose was the Manager before him, It wasnt his fault Roman asked him to take charge of Chelsea, it wasnt his fault JT volunteered to take the PK after Anelka refused and it asnt his fault JT slipped. I dont rate him as a manager but as a person he seems a nice guy. And I hope the crowd shows some sort of respect for him.

portsmouth H tonight and west ham A saturday, the bottom 2 clubs, anything less than 6 points from these 2 games will just be totally unacceptable.

at one stage we were 8 points clear of man ure, after last night they are now level, please dont make old mauve nose's prediction come true, and that they will be top by the new year and then kick on from there....(the arrogant bastard)

regards: JBD
