New Year, New Football Thread
Apologies if lack of sleep means this is a trainwreck, but here goes;
Pompey appear to be fucked, and I'm not winding you up. No-one seems sure whats going to happen, but its been a slippery slope since ''Arry's' overspending and the new owners haven't settled things. Another fire sale seems imminent, and with that more loan signings. Hard to see them staying up but lets hope they manage to steady the ship and avoid administration/'doing a Leeds'.
Speaking of Leeds, they're back in the limelight as they play the champions on Sunday. Rumours have it Beckford might face the Evans brothers, with Neville and Giggs also likely to start. Porkchop-face has promised to respect Leeds by playing a strong midfield and attack, but still anything could happen in the WWF. Its on the TV.
Who do your team play this weekend? Are you a scouser or a brummie expecting a struggle against 'manned up' championship team? A sunderland fan expecting goals but knowing you can't keep hold of a lead to save your life? Or maybe you aren't even in the cup. Far too many games to do predictions for, so how about y'all pick three possible upsets;
Forest vs Birmingham
Bolton vs Lincoln
MK Dons vs Burnley
Also thee transfer window opens its fat gob soon. Theres a thread here to talk about that though;
