Wighat v. Whites [R]

Really, start a new thread with this and leave it out of the match thread - you can title it "Rush just said the icecaps are growing back, proving 99% of climatologists wrong..."

 

Its about as relevant as the other side discussions here, especially since I was responding to Don's comment. Have a beer & calm down, it was meant in fun.

On a side note, I haven't listened to Rush since I was a teen. No reason to start listening 20 years later, but thanks for the suggestion.

 

In England, 35 degrees and 3 inches of snow is the end of the world.

 

Or if present there, you think the world has already ended.

:banana:

 

Any chance of Barnesy or Dacourt getting a chance to start this match?

Erik the Conqueror most certainly should be in the starting XI. The partnership with AJ looked threatening in almost every build up. Hoping it carries over.

 

If the match is postponed I hope it's before our fans start traveling up there. A draw on the road is never a bad thing, but a win against a team right above us would be a thing of beauty (no matter how ugly the match).

If you put my feet to the fire and told me that the lads could only win one of the next 2 away fixtures I'd take the Swansea match on the 14th.

 

Enough silly humor on this thread -- Don gets to shave his beard.

2-0 Whites.

Remember, you heard it here first.

 

If the Canes can go into San Jose, and beat the Sharks, then the good karma can carry over to the Fulham to break the spell. 2-0, I like the sound of that.

 

Corky, "puppy" in California parlance means non-descript "noun.". No PETA offense was implied by my post...and I love dogs.

1-1. But, a win gets me a shave (straight razor by a barber nonetheless) so WIN!!!

COYW!!

 

Carolina, the 'Canes win v SJ was a fluke. FFC's victory won't be a result of good fortune! But if so, its 3 all the same...

 

We have lineups, so looks like we're on. Dacourt on the bench, but no Barnes. This is start #50 for Clint at FFC.

Line-ups:
Wigan: Kirkland, Melchiot, Scharner, Bramble, Figueroa, Valencia, Brown, Cattermole, N'Zogbia, Mido, Rodallega. Subs: Pollitt, Edman, Watson, Koumas, Zaki, Boyce, De Ridder.

Fulham: Schwarzer, Pantsil, Hangeland, Hughes, Konchesky, Davies, Etuhu, Murphy, Dempsey, Johnson, Zamora. Subs: Zuberbuhler, Nevland, Gera, Dacourt, Gray, Stoor, Kallio.

Referee: Lee Probert (Wiltshire)

 

Oh, please: A shocker from Bramble!

Cross from Demps.. deflection OG from Titus!

 

Given our record at Wigan, I'm pleased to take the point today. Would love to see us break the drought of goals (and wins) on the road, but compared to this time last year, it seems silly to complain.

Glad to hear Dacourt looked good.

 

One point on the road is better than no points on the road.

 

As my English buddy says, "Win at home, draw on the road is a good formula for success." As I type this I'm looking at the picture of me and my boys taking turns hoisting the Stanley Cup! Hope you get to do that sometime, Nevzter.

 

D'oh.

I take it from the above posts that FFC didn't look too sharp? At least it's a point.

 

I'll take the point. I was really happy to see the possession stats so hugely in favor of Fulham.

I spent the morning wathcing the Villa-Rovers match... When Villa won to make it SEVEN STRAIGHT ROAD WINS for the Villans, I ate my hat. How about one in a row Whites, starting w/ Swansea?
