Free talk Friday anyone?

Pre-Match threads rarely get much attention, especially for smaller teams and with little going on in the club at the moment, and it's friday - so, hey - What have you been up to this week?

How old are you? At 28 this has happened to me a few times. Seldom quite as bad as today, though.

This week was my second week back at college, we started proper lessons again and I forgot how fucking tiring it is. Instead of doing the work I'm supposed to do I'm having a friday night beer and watching It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. It's not been a bad week though, It's nice actually having stuff to do during the day. I'm pretty sure we will get a win tomorrow. It won't be easy and we will have to play well but I'm sure that the performance in the cup was a slight blip. I'm gonna predict a 2-0 win for us. It'd be great if Jarvis could play but he can't, it's nice to see him play well. Hopfully he'll come back next year and challenge for a postion.

Come on you Irons! Lets see if we can get another home win!

What's up lads? I've been drinking red wine and watching 'suits' all night. It's pretty decent.
Norwich are decent on the road, so it'll be a tough test tomorrow, but if we can avoid the individual errors that have hurt us previously we should be able win this easily enough.
Fucking pumped for the rugby though, can't wait to be a smug twat to my Welsh relatives.

Expecting a win. Doesn't have to be convincing, Norwich aren't shit, but 3 points is a must. 2-1 Zarate & Lanzini.

Why were we so easily undone by Leicester?

Been late to the game, technically Saturday but Friday where I live (top left corner of the U.S. Of A - Oregon). Just watched Mad Max on DVD on a 4K UHD TV. Bit drunk off 3 tall boy IPA's and a pint of Pumpkin beer as it is the season.

Hoping for a win tomorrow and maybe I'll grab myself a nice fruit tart or at the least a good cup of coffee to go along with it. Still playing FIFA 15 cause I'm a cheap bastard and I'm canceling my PS+ in October cause I'm trying to do different stuff with my life including beating old games for my Wii U and PS3 a.k.a. Red Dead Redemption

EDIT: couldn't decide on an FPL captain, considered Martial with Man U but ended on Payet cause who wants to root for Man U : \
