I'm still hoping that the singers and drum are at the halfway line tomorrow. Do we have any new songs ? I think it will be a draw ( also feeling a little cautious )

Wasn't it Burton who brought more flags than fans down last season?

Really cannot wait for this one, just wish I didn't live 5 hours drive away because I'd love to see the atmosphere today. Got me GullsPlayer ready for some terrible local radio!

I haven't been this excited about the start of the season for ages.
I just have a good feeling about today - it appears that the "feel-good" factor has arrived at the club, and Dinger has made some shrewd signings in my opinion. Would love to see us win, and win well, with some of the new signings getting assists and on the scoresheet.
I guess all will be revealed at 4.45.
Can't wait!!

We set up the flags yesterday with some in the middle and some down the end. We're planning on taking the drum down the end for the first half, then probably coming back to the middle for the second half.
Buzzing for this one!

I'd better not. Sod's law I'd be right for once and I'd have to live with the guilt of jinxing the team and go into hiding for fear of a yellow mob. It just doesn't bear thinking about. :no:

Seems right to me, only Nico in from the team I predicted in the 'Probable Line Up vs. The Brewers' thread a couple weeks back.
Ling has said in a couple of interviews it is up to Danny Stevens to show some consistency and KEEP his place in the team, which indicated he would be starting the first game. Not a huge deal that Kee doesn't start, good player to bring on if we need a goal.
