I would say wait to the CC games and early FA Cup games AND when the CL starts to get into full swing we'll see them all getting more league appearances. I'm still worried slightly but we want a good start and I'd rather have a good start like last season, we'll be fine with our youth

Made the decision, I'm getting "Saloman the Destroyer, 21" on my next shirt This thread is funny though lol, cheer him, don't cheer him, who cares just stop making a big deal of it, lets start ripping into Paolo instead

They usually get a decent turn out, everyone will be back from holiday by then! Most people sell their tickets for group games I think too

5 loyalty points though...I'll go to all of them I only went to games properly last season, and now the good times are over! haha the double made up for it

I'm pretty sure Kakuta is injured till mid sept...that's what espn or something had up anyway for our current injuries, no wait Eurosport I think

I want to see us play him more though, could've came on later on but surely when the champs league etc kicks in he'll be featuring for us a lot more, fantastic player

JT Is injured too

Studge looks frustrated, BUT I'm confident he'll be starting all our CC and FA Cup games. and as the table takes more shape he'll get more chances

Glad he doesn't play for England imo, maybe after this he'll retire from the national team and also good that he'll be fit vs Ctiy. On his game today - he's allowed to have a bad game one every 3 or so years....

Lol just realising Marsielle and "Moscow" >_> The names mean more than the teams damn! I'm ok with the group so far...I look forward to being at the bridge for the games

In all fairness, we are at home, the problems USUALLY come away from home, early goal will be vital though, Stoke will go for us imo and Fuller will try something funny. JT and Alex are such a good combination of brick wall + brick wall though

I'm not going to the game lol...I would've if friend thought about it but cba..I see it as a face value investment of a point! and obviously helping out someone that needs it :]

No worries dude, I'll messave you closer to the time too to remind you :-)

We'll lose the game 5 - 0, we're too old to win the league and need a whole new squad!!!! jk... I'll be at the game, hoping for a thumping in all fairness and my throat better clear up for the weekend vs their fans!!

My last home game as a temporary Season Ticket holder XD Feeling good about a win against them and people can stop saying we're only beating lower level sides, Arsenal forgetting that Wigan smashed em 3 - 1 or whatever it was lol

Just got it, you should be ok

I like the drum lol, gets the crowd going! We prefer to just bang around things in the stadium though

That drum went really quiet in the end! I think Thomas Cook cancelling the travel made the turnout better lol

The almighty Leyton Orient are my local team Ex-Chelsea player Lee Sawyer plays there too, next season or later on this year I'm going to go to some games - we might get releagated from league 1 this season

I don't think that's true, what side were you sitting on? right side was great (i was on the left) up to about 20 mins it did get quiet, but still nothing like how it can get at some games. Good turn out too

Good to see that, it's their fault he got that worse injury in the first place so if he can have a good year with us he'll rejoin them imo.

I was at the game, i love away games, so much more better than home games! (crowd wise lol)

This is what it comes down to so much, it's because he's not up there with the best players in the world whereas the rest of the starting XI are, and that's the root of peoples hate for him, I don't mind though, if the club felt he should go then they would've sold him

Great man, leaving with grace and I respect him even more now, always loved a bit of Ballack! ;-) On Joe Cole: my love for him turns more into hate everyday, sad eh

Honestly speaking, I don't think Josh has gone through puberty yet, his body just isn't able at the moment lol. Well that's what it looks like anyway It's early day lads, we'l see how we're looking with the youth halfway through the season to really guage if there's a change with Carlo and youth or not, our younger players should be getting regular sub appearances up until December
