As a Suffering cows fan I will not be too upset to see the tits win .
if they do hopefully it’s the final nail in the coffin of that useless bald headed F##ks coaching career with us .

Is it likely to be wet up there with the tropical cyclone/shitty weather?

I'm looking at thd total match points, over/unders.

Probably safe to assume it is going to be sodden.

If the Cows find a way to lose this, Dracula needs to be back in his tomb by Monday.
