This is the greatest thing I have ever seen...

I don't know why but I fucking love this kit, I'll be buying mine tonight!

[Farmer Reil]

It's nice, but it'd be a bajillion times better if the stripes carried on all the way around, instead of stopping at the shoulder.

[NobBe Nobbs]

It's certainly better than the vomit-coloured kit they wore against us in the Carling Cup. Hell, anything's better than that, even David Seaman's 'explosion in a paint factory' keeper shirt for Euro '96.

[King Ellis]

Your kit sponsor is JJB? Is that like one of those deals they do for pub teams where they sell a teams worth of kit for like £200? Doesn't look too appealing anyway.

[TAFKA Castroneves]

Yeah JJB have gone into manufacturing kits now. So basically you should be able to get your hands on the new City shirt all over the country lads...although I still doubt that!

I personally like the away kit, our home kit is a bit meh really. But our one before then was absolutly awesome so it always was going to be.

Anyone here out of interest seen the Bradford 'keeper Henderson in action? He's set to sign with us and it would be nice to hear what you guys think about him.

Oh, Ori Ori! Ori Ori Ori Orient! I am hoping for a good season, I can feel it this time. We have brought in some quality players but Ling still needs to pick up another striker, someone a bit different to what we have. But still.

EDIT - Stupid quotes.

I'll watch some of it before I have to head off to Brisbane Road for the match against Macclesfield. But good luck against Utd, I wanna see Leicester promoted.

Tommorow it all begins.

Can't wait, c'mon pools.

This is all you need to see opening day, watch it on Sky Sports (Y) and watch the glory that is Mark De Vries

David Connolly had better be fit, the idea of a Dublin/De Vries strikeforce intimidates me.

←

Connolly by himself should be enough to intimidate any defense.

Hoping for wins for Leicester and Bury today, grown to know I like Leicester as much as I can another English club besides Bury.

[RawIsWar]

Leeds are definately going to ride high this season, Kevin Blackwell and Ken Bates have done some magic

[Timmoru Suzuki]

The championships best side cruised to victory against Leicester today, winning 4-1.

[botchedpiledriver]

Sheffield United 4 - 1 Leicester.

It all went to shit in the last ten minutes for Leicster.

Whist I didn't see the game, the claim that Sheff Utd are the best team in your league is laughable.

Considering you finished 8th last season (not even play-off's) and not really improved the squad much (Craig Short? Might as well have a concrete brick), I can't see how the most biased fan of the Blades could claim they have a better side than Wolves, Norwich and Crystal Palace at the least?

Enjoy your win, from what I have read you deserved it but not by the margin by any means. But one game doesn't make a season. Let's see how you go for the next 10 games at the least before we judge who is the 'best team' in the league eh?

[fineintent]

I've got £20 on Norwich, both ways because of Palace, to get automatic promotion. I'm looking out for Watford, who are my second team in a way, but with the players they've let go and brought in, it looks like it'll be a long season. As long as they beat Luton though.

[MDK]

Orient got a jammy win today, I love it! We were all over Macclesfield for the first half and we got a very early goal, about a minute into the match. Then after the break it all went to shit and we conceded a bad goal due to dodgy defending, and then right at the death of the game Easton intercepted a pass and played it thru to Efe Echanomi who scored a one yard screamer. And then he did the best goal celebration in the county, a series of backflips finished off with a tumbling flip

It was great, and the new stand is awesome.

[GA!]

Grimsby 1-1 Oxford... It's a shame that Grimsby conceeded in the 88th minute, but that's football I guess. We're doing better than we were last year (lost opening season 2-0 to Darlington in 2004) so hooray.

[Katsuya]

DAMNIT! Macclesfield lost. BOO!
