Anyhow, suggest we steer clear of the Bard theme lest we attract some of Somerset's honest men and bonnie lassies into the thread claiming ownership rights etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to sit next to the away fans but had to move as this insult turned me into a seething mess. Not much gets under my skin but that one really hits a nerve ETA - should say I have no issue with Them being referred to as c***s, I'm just upset when I get lumped in as a Tory. I've no issue with being called a c**t though. Edited December 15, 2023 by 19QOS19 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bod Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 So do we turn up full of hope, expectation or trepidation tomorrow? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bod Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 You’d expect we’ll start with the same 11 as last week and hope that we play in the same manner. Our 4th goal was a great example of how much better and dangerous as a team we are when we move the ball forward fast. Gibson battling back and winning the ball, he then lifts his head and pings a 40-yard ball forward to Reilly who again had lost his man and holds it up before laying it off. Suddenly we’re in the middle of the opposition half with players flooding forward to support the attack. The rest from Connelly is just sublime. In previous games we’d either already have conceded or after 10 sideways and backwards passes the ball would have been at the feet of Stones who would have been under serious pressure. Occasionally going long quickly with the right ball and players can work very well. Here’s hoping for more of the same tomorrow against whatever team Edinburgh field. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think by now most of us know which is the correct answer. Tbf, given the turmoil at Embra these days, we deserve zip this season if we can't record a win here.

There's betting for the game now. 1/4 Queens and 8/1 Edinburgh under 20s team. Sums it up really. The standout bet for me is Queens leading at HT/FT which is 4/5. Nearly evens. That's buying money surely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

die hard doonhamer Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 It really should be the same again in terms of starting XI, and hopefully an opportunity to build the confidence. Would be very Queens to lose to what is essentially an U20 side, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjc-1988 Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 This must be one of the most unusual set of circumstances - a team who have recorded one home win out of 8 matches (losing 6 of them) are trading at 1/8 against a team who are only two places and 7 points behind them. If there is one team unreliable enough to lose against an under 20 squad then look no further than QOS. Surely not????? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fae_the_'briggs Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 I know our home form is atrocious but lose/draw this and Marv should def walk. (assuming EFC are fielding as weak a team as being predicted). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
