Up the Potters and bring it on. The Irish guy on YouTube - a complete neutral predicted we'd finish 6th. Thinks that will be 100% down to Gale and that he'll score 30 goals and win the championship golden boot! |

I painted my Argentinian team white with Tipp_ex as for some reason they were all black. Am I a racist now,Ted.
I also painted one of my Stoke team black with felt tip to be Garth Crooks.

Looking forward to the season but can't say I share your level of optimism.
I need to see some evidence that points to us being a side that can compete in the upper reaches of the division and sustain that push. Don't forget we pretty much all know what that looks like (assuming we were old enough in 2007).
I felt that briefly during the first third of last season until Souttar got injured. Since then we have been inconsistent at best.
The manager needs to get this team moving which in turn will get the fans moving and build that momentum.

After the recent thread on team formations I found the classic '532' works surprisingly well for Subutteo.
Got me to the final in our local pub charity competition.

I think Gayle will be our top scorer, so if Brown can get 12/13 with Campbell and a few others getting some we could be fine.
