i'd be more inclined to count the minutes down of any pre season friendly in the hope of no injuries.

Hehe

No more sleeps..... it's here

If we get to Wembley, you're gonna be taking hourly cold showers. Is your ticker up to it?

What time is it Mr Wolf?

this is all a bit sad to be perfectly honest, it's a friendly FFS!

St Helens is the only important game on the horizon.

True enough but four months without an FC fix and the prospect of seeing the new players means I am really looking forward to the match.

By all means look forward to it, so you should given you are parting with your time and money to attend, but a count down thread, really?

I hope everyone enjoys a good afternoon, I hope it's a good game, I hope you see some sembence of tactics from FC, I hope the substitutions make sense unlike last season, and most of all I hope we come out of the other end unscathed.

My biggest concern for the game is Morgan's squad and the fact it's unlimited interchanges, it could become a farce after 60 minutes.

Thats down to me mate i have a sad life at the moment to much time on my hands through having to much time off work

So, you're not going then, Standee?

People seem to be forgetting what this game is all about. The result is immaterial. It's all about a great and brave servant to the game and the club. Seeing him run out today after a pretty horrendous couple of years is worth the money itself.

I'm not expecting a super performance, just the beginnings of a team that wants to gel and win.

Standee's just being a tish killjoy.

Oh I know mate, me too, I understand you're excited, you're hoping for a "told you so" display from Agar's team



Solinus, if I want to listen to an ar$ehole, I'll fart.

I'm surprised you have one. It would explain why you're so full of shlt.

Come on you two !!

In a battle of wits, Solinus arrives unarmed.

Anyway, how long left Wolfie?

t minus 5 minutes then i am off for a well earned liquid lunch before the game

no wonder you made comment about the shirt sizes

Well they need ample expansion room in them

Just happy to be going to a game of rugby again after what seems like forever since the last game.
I also think the reason there is such a buzz is because a lot of supporters actually feel we can do well this year as opposed to previous seasons.

3 hours 28 mins

People were fairly positive at the start of the last two seasons if I recall correctly, some were even saying Thorman could be the answer!!!

I view this next season with trepadation, the ingredients are there, the sous chef has arrived, we just need to see if the head chef can blend it all.

(I thought I'd get the first food analogy in of 2010!)

I'l join him then....im not going either due to a variety of reasons.

The wolfie propaganda machine will be in overdrive if we win today



I bet he's already typed stuff into a word document so he can copy and paste them as soon as he gets in

Right, that's it - I'm off to see the lads



Hope the radio coverages are good for those who can't make it.

Cheers
