    With teams stretched to the max this GW, and the impending sword of doom/opportunity that is GW29 approaching, its all going to get interesting.

    Fulham v Stoke kick off at 12.45

    11.20 and no sign of the Stoke team sheet with ten minutes to go.

    I'm following Stoke on twitter just for today. Nowt yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,255 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    As I didn't bring Wilson in I'm now hoping he gets a one point cameo to fook over those who took a chance on it.

    Sorry lads, the last third is dog eat dog :D

    Rumours suggesting he starts. Unconfirmed.

    In a gw where many took a 4 point hit, I took an 8.

    Bale, Sissoko and Giroud for Puncheon, Suarez and Gerrard. Left all 3 on the bench for the Lolz. They'll all come in Monday night.

    Wilson starts for Stoke

    Wilson starts for Stoke

    Click, click, click, click.

    That's the sound of thousands rushing to get him in for the rest of the season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    F**k. Overslept and didn't make the Wilson transfer. Also gone with Federici over Begovic.

    3-0 Fulham please.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 712 ✭✭✭Devia


    Nice one, looks like Cameron starts in midfield

    In QPR's last 10 games vs United, they've lost 9 & drawn one,hopefully RVP fills his boots today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    Ruiz disallowed goal, and he gets a yellow card!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,136 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    Doubled up on Stoke defence.. Doesn't look good at all


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,691 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    Wilson yellow


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    You would think that but Fulham are just swinging balls into the box. Stokes players have the height advantage so it's easy for them. Need to try and play it through.

    A Berbs goal would be immense


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    I'd be surprised if both sides finished this game with 11.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,012 ✭✭✭✭Alfred Borden


    Come on Fulham, need Stoke to concede!

    Rooney has travelled with the United squad.........will he play?

    Why has everyone got the hots for Wilson? Is it cos he's cheap at 3.9? His stats seem pretty ordinary


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,262 ✭✭✭iroced


    Need a Shawcross goal now....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,264 ✭✭✭✭manual_man

    Cheap plus you'd still fancy Stoke to be good for some clean sheets, more likely at home, but still, a bargain imo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,262 ✭✭✭iroced

    Yeah he's cheap and he might help tighten Stoke defense up, at least at home.

    mate of mine transferred in rooney for a 4 pt hit thurs morning heard the news rooney was out so took another 4 pt hit to transfer him back out. God help him if rooney plays and scores big today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,255 ✭✭✭✭Lemlin


    Does anyone still have Berba? I'm sure there has to be a couple of people still have him.

    And Lambert owners watch out. I've put my third striker curse on him. I've had Suarez and RVP banging them in all season but any third striker I've brought in has had a stinker for a few weeks e.g. Giroud, Berba, Tevez, Torres, Fletcher.

    Another 3+ saves from Begovic and a Shea goal would be the right job now.

    Now why doesn't this work when I have the player! can't complain, Wilson yellow and Stoke concede to a goal that wasn't Ruiz. Perfect start.

    Hopefully this game stays as it is now.

    He would of been my transfer had United not been missing in GW29. Typical Fergie. Talks him up all week then rests him.

    That's the team, with Rooney and Scholes in for Nani and Hernandez, that I'd be more or less expecting for Madrid so I can see those lads getting a game today and alot being rested next week.

    Will RVP or Nani be on pens today? I'd expect RVP.

    RVP. But Giggs would be ahead of Nani in the pecking order surely?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,600 ✭✭✭roryc


    Is it too early to get my hopes up about this GW? I can't remember the last time I was positive before the matches, but my mistake of not bringing in Wilson could turn out to be a lucky one.

    RVP > Walcott please!!
