Barcodes - Top of the League

[Bootle Buck]

They will be parading the trophy at their second game. An additional 23,000 XXXL shirts have just been made for the occasion. It's bigger than the Michael Owen signing.

...and the Jackie Milburn stand is being renamed "Top of the League 12th August 2007 stand".

My Geordie mate has already had the league table laminated and framed.

[Bootle Buck]

This might even eclipse their historic Texaco Cup victory.

[Romario]

I think they'll do well this season actually. Viduka, Martins, Owen and Smith is a tastly enough front line. Fat head I'm sure will make them harder to beat too.

However, after a few injuries to that lot they will have to rely on their ever reliable defence

The have a very good keeper and with some organisation they will be difficult to beat.

They could make the top 4 this year if they don't get many injuries IMO

as usual with them, the only way is down

Newcastle boss Sam Allardyce is considering a £4m swoop for Everton skipper Phil Neville. (Express)

Don't think they have a snowball's chance in hell of getting in the top 4.

 

Do think they will be better this season though.

everton got there recently, and everton have a better squad and a better manager, it will depend on one of the top four slipping up badly though

[IgPig]

I'd much rather have the barcodes squad than Evertons, and I suspect Allardyce will prove a much better manager than Moyes with a bit of money. He probably has already given Bolton's recent finishing positions Vs the amount of money he had.

 

If I was the supporter of some tedious mid table club, I'd prefer Allardyce managing it, of the two.

Allardyce is a far better manager than Moyes. The guy may be a loud mouth gum chewing knobski, but he's a good manager.

thats what i meant, don't know why i wrote everton twice

What I found interesting from Saturday's performance is that they did it without SEVEN decent enough players.

 

The following didn't feature:

 

Duff

Solano

Dyer

Barton

Given

Owen

Emre

 

Definitely worth a shout for 5th/6th if those players return and stay fit (the big issue though).

solano and Dyer could both be off soon. Emre isn't all that.

 

Barton and Owen will strengthen them considerably though. I forgot Duff existed.
