Opening fixtures:
Forest (A)
Villa (H)
Sunderland (A)
Chelsea (H)
Fulham (A)
Man U (H)
Man City (H)
WHU (A)
L'pool (H)

So not too hard to start off, before it gets noticeably harder?

Getting 9 points from those games would be an excellent return. You'd expect to beat Sunderland. Draws away to Fulham and West Ham would be good results. The rest are European sides (and Man Utd who should be a lot better next season)

He was our best player at Euro 2012 and probably a bit underrated for us as he was involved in some dreadful displays.
But he was solid.
Him and Whelan in Paris absolutely bossed it.

As a pundit, he comes across as a total shaper. That coupled with the clothes range is just a bit….unusual for Irish people I suppose. It’s a bit McGregor I suppose. Or maybe Paul Galvin. We’re not used to it. But as I said, best of luck to him. I hope he succeeds

Thanks Fixer, you sparked a memory there with the Paris comment. It was Andrews who sparked off against Diarra towards the end of the first leg when the French were starting to go all Frenchy and arrogant.

And his missus I'm pretty sure is the designer (she was charged with the Euro 2012 squad outfits) - the comparison with Galvin is a god one.
