I feel the same - not looking forward to all the manically checking the phone every 5 mins up to 1755 CET (or worse checking #twitterwhites constantly) , then having my hopes dashed AGAIN.
Another part of the footy fatigue this time around is the fact that the Olympics have been spectacular (I doff (doth?) my cap to GB, truly stunning, even for this biased observer) and a GREAT European Championship was only a month ago. Plus, when you compare the Olympic athletes with the shower of overpaid c**ts in footy... All of the friendlies I ignore completely but IN SAYING THAT, NW is the promotion king in this division and you have to trust him - even if not the prettiest. Hope springs eternal.... Greetings from a hot Madrid. BMW PS Good to know both Richard Walker - along with David Natton - is back with the unmissable match reports.

I've donated my £10 to the list today, I am coming back to the list for match reports. But if Colin goes with Becchio as his main striker I will have another hissy fit and throw my toys out of the pram ( again). The bloke can't play footy. Are we getting Humphries back ? I hate the twat but we did leave the list together and I feel a bit of a fraud coming back without him. Can someone send him a msg ?
