Danizen Posted 15 August 2014 Share Posted 15 August 2014 http://www.football365.com/big-weekend/9421940/Big-Weekend I like this writer. I posted his write-up of ITKs on here, a while back. He's a Forest fan and knows the football league like the back of his hand. Says that us and QPR have got winnable (but not easy) home games to kick off with. The rest of the article is pretty good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webbo Posted 16 August 2014 Share Posted 16 August 2014 Metro booking pundit tipped Pearson as first man to be sacked this season at 25/1... I'd imagine there are odds on every manager. 25/1 are pretty long odds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilo Posted 16 August 2014 Share Posted 16 August 2014 The excellent Racing Post Big Kick Off tipped us to finish 15th, and also tipped us to win the Championship in last year's edition. I'd certainly take that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad the Fox Posted 16 August 2014 Share Posted 16 August 2014 I think a little research would show that QPR were flat track bullies-they didn't do well against the other top sides last year, which doesn't bode well for a step up in quality. One of the most encouraging things about our squad is that we beat the top teams and ended numerous unbeaten runs, some by sheer quality (Derby and Burnley) and some by grinding it out (QPR, the draw at Forest with 10 men...). I don't fear the Premier League, and trust Nige that a) we won't be daunted by our tough start, and b) we won't worry if we're bottom after 5. I felt that we were a level above last season and the derby and burnley games highlighted that. Especially burnley, which felt like a cup final on the say, and many were expecting a tough game yet we came out and played them off the park. Injuries or no injuries, burnley had no answer to us that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davieG Posted 19 August 2014 Share Posted 19 August 2014 There will not be a worse hair style than that of Remy Cabella (aka “the new Yohan Cabaye and saviour of the Mags”) on display in the Premier League this season and Leicester City deserve to be relegated immediately for having some clown banging a drum all game. - See more at: http://salutsunderland.com/2014/08/leicesters-mad-drummer-cabellas-hair-and-new-fangled-nicknames-test-sixers-nerves/?#sthash.iW0zxJvn.dpuf And now Leicester City pitch up with a smirking clown banging a drum. With the demise of Bolton, Wigan and Portsmouth I thought we had got rid of the skin bashers but it appears that Leicester do not want to be taken seriously as a club, so they have one. By the looks of it, he has his own little alcove where he can inspire the crowd to the heights of apathy with his senseless banging. Crowds make a noise because of what they see and feel, not because some half wit bangs a drum or waves some clappers. - See more at: http://salutsunderland.com/2014/08/leicesters-mad-drummer-cabellas-hair-and-new-fangled-nicknames-test-sixers-nerves/?#sthash.iW0zxJvn.dpuf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one should need a band or a drummer to get them to sing they should be doing it out of pride and love for the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we've spoke about it so much in other threads and nothing has been done. Unfortunately I think it's here's to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo Posted 19 August 2014 Share Posted 19 August 2014 …is anyone actually in favour of the drum? If it were a full marching band style set up with snares and cymbals I wouldn't so much mind Just hearing *DUM* *DUM* *DUMDUMDUMDUM* every now and then (and quite often out of time) is a bit embarrassing.

If the drummer wasn't on an ego trip he'd try to phase it out for the good of a natural atmosphere. But that would mean not being on TV, phone ins, East Midlands news etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo Posted 19 August 2014 Share Posted 19 August 2014 (edited) What is the history of Jobbersworth anyway? How did he get permission to "play" the drum?
