Can I join the rush to say how good I thought Dele was in the second half?
What's that, no one has given him any credit???

I'd love them to come and have a go, but I don't think they will. They will be parking the team bus and looking for the sucker punch, like everyone else who visits Wembley this year.
Interesting line up to be fair
I thought that sounded really low so I checked. You're obviously correct.
Turns out the Scottish league record is 118k (Ibrox, Old Firm, 1939).
All British/European attendance records (Internationals, Domestic Cup, European Cup) are held at Hampden at around 146k - 149k.
Unsurprisingly the top 10 International attendance records are all held by Hampden for Scotland vs England games
Any records i've heard quoted in past must have been the British records.
Shocked that the difference is so vast though.
Anyway, hopefully we'll beat it a few times this season. Liverpool and then Scum games at least.
EDIT:
Scottish Junior Cup 77,650 Hampden Park Petershill v Irvine Meadow 19 May 1951
WTF!!!??
EDIT2:
Wikipedia is dangerous
Surely Tripps plays v Cherries, Aurier v Real Tuesday?
We really need to fucking hammer this lot, otherwise if it's a 1-0 affair, the media will just move on to 'it was only little ol' Bournemouth' (and they haven't properly shaken off the Wembley hoodoo).
A nice 4/5-0 will do the world of good.

I got about 45 seconds into this before thinking "You know what, you're a pus covered bellend, I'm not going to listen to your cuntery"
Maybe you can do better...

I’ve never seen us lose at Wembley. Only been 4 times though...confident I’m keeping my unbeaten record today & see us win our first league game of many this season
No. Training with the first team for a week doesn't mean he's ready for a match.
Think how long a pre-season is and how many games are played. He's missed all that. At least 3 weeks intensive first team training and he should be getting a bit sharper.
Really is no point risking him after so long out IMO we have other options right now.
WINKSY!!!
Dele has been good.
We are a bit too slow in buiild up.
Same old story.
They defend en masse and hit long balls up to catch us on the break.
No way have they dominated us. They seem content to sit and defend when we have it.
Nearly worked when they steamed forwards after a long ball up to King.
All it takes is for a misplaced pass and we fuck them.
We just have to be aware.
Keep knocking on the door they can’t defend for ever.

I would put Llorente on straight at ht and just go for it tbh.
He's speaks fluent Russian...who knew...
If Watford beat Woolwich then I'm greasing up later to watch Match of the Day.We win at Wembley - another clean sheet, and we stay third in the league with some key players returning very shortly. Great result and some exciting matches ahead.
Chelsea lose to bottom of the table Palace - concede two goals against the team that haven't scored all season.
United and Liverpool both fail to score and drop points.
West Ham drop points late on too (not that their results mean anything to us, but still always funny).
I'd say it's a good Saturday.
Man City almost hilariously dominant against Stoke, but I really struggle to give a fuck about them. Very much doubt we could catch them in our Wembley year - that squad will be able to win the league on autopilot.
