| Knob End Match Fred 12:41 - Aug 6 with 65106 views | Beckenhamhoop | Getting in very early on this one. I only started one match thread last season and we won 4-0 so here’s hoping my luck continues especially as it’s such a huge fixture. Not just because it’s the first game of the season or because it’s the first game for JS, not just because the pressure is on us to beat a team, at home, that many have tipped to be relegated but because this team needs to win for its fragile confidence. To get its supporters to forget about gardening leave and divided opinions. My anxiety levels are way higher than normal for this game and with the injuries we’ve accumulated so early in the season I don’t think they’re going to drop, especially if Dunne and Cook are unavailable. You wait for months for the season to start and this is what you get; a knot in the pit of your stomach. I’m going for a rollercoaster 3-2 win. Chair with the first. C’mon you soooopahhooooopsah. |  | | |  |

| Knob End Match Fred on 15:36 - Aug 9 with 2351 views | JimmyR | Poku looks a great signing |  | |  |
| Knob End Match Fred on 15:37 - Aug 9 with 2265 views | aston_hoop | Long range effort from Esquerdinha, this has been an eye catching debut from him |  |

Great start for Poku |  | |  |
| Knob End Match Fred on 15:39 - Aug 9 with 2109 views | QPunkR | Really impressed so far, we've looked composed and imaginative. Esquerdinha looking so at home on his first team bow and I'm loving the look of Mbengue already. Morgan not looking out of place at RB and dare I say it, even Madsen having a good game - he even won a header as I live and breathe! |  |

Not strictly true, he's fallen over a couple of times |  |

| Knob End Match Fred on 15:41 - Aug 9 with 2016 views | Match82 | Oooooh that was a little bit special by Dembele! |  | |  |
| Knob End Match Fred on 15:41 - Aug 9 with 2005 views | SW_Ranger | Yesss!!! Deserved that from the work by Dembele |  | |  |
| Knob End Match Fred on 15:41 - Aug 9 with 1981 views | aston_hoop | Superb from Dembele, absolutely brilliant. Shout out Celar for the hold up earlier in the move |  |
|  |
| Knob End Match Fred on 15:42 - Aug 9 with 1983 views | Jigsore | just beautiful from Dembele. like a new signing |  |

| Knob End Match Fred on 15:42 - Aug 9 with 1891 views | Match82 | I have a feeling that OG is going play a big role for us this year |  | |  |
| Knob End Match Fred on 15:43 - Aug 9 with 1807 views | PlanetHonneywood | Although an OG, that was a well worked goal by the Rangers. Well done Rs. |  |

Kicking myself for picking Chair ahead of o.g. for first scorer. I was 50/50. |  | |  |

Starting this season as he began the last |  |

| Knob End Match Fred on 15:48 - Aug 9 with 1475 views | strikerace | Fairly good half. Defending is improving, Chair/Dembele/Poku look good. I think we would be better if we had a striker on the pitch though |  | |  |
