    Looking at the odds for outright winners of league two, we’re 3rd or 4th favourites at around 14/1. Based on our recruitment both on and off the pitch, proven winning manager, results and performances in the friendlies (sorry @Fordy117@Fordy117 ), I’m quite surprised they’re so long. I stopped backing us a few years ago but having watched the game yesterday and liking the grit and determination, coupled with the team ethic I might be tempted to gamble a quid.

    Think I will take that in an each way accumulator - top 3. Big bucks to be had.

    Thanks for the report. No mention of Sutton? Where was he playing and how did he do? I thought he might be an Adams sort of player.

    I think that has always been the case with Sutton. Where did Adams play him?

    That's because he's a mere amateur when it comes to football. Fordy's knowledge is far superior.

    Based on what I saw last season.....Adams may well find a player in him but technically awful from what I saw.

    Exactly! He knows nothing, it's Steve Bruce we all need to be listening to, right Fordy?

    Are you turning into a very lonely attention seeking Fordy midget for the weekend?

    Who will start alongside Songo? Watt has ability but gives the ball away and free kicks in dangerous areas. Sutton doesn't have Watts technical ability but he's high energy and breaks the lines well.
