Harper Simpson Coloccini Williamson Van Aanholt Smith Nolan Routledge Jonas Carroll Best Is the team i expect, with perhaps the possible inclusion of Hall instead of Williamson. Of course we'd all like to see Guthrie instead of Nolan and Lovenkrands instead of Best but it's very unlikely. How long has Enrique got left BTW? 2/3 weeks now?

Ratings; Routledge and Colo- 7 Everyone else- 5 or under. Don't give a fuck that we fluked it. We have a home game next and we are top of the league.

In fairness Hall has had two decent games from what i've read, he was certainly good against Cardiff. Hope Loven takes his chance. P.S Jonas has been shit away all season.

Harper Simpson Colo Williamson Enrique Smith Guthrie Routledge Jonas Nolan Ameobi 0-0/1-1

The one change a few would have made, as you say. Doubt it would have had a HUGE baring on the result though.

If Hughton got found out, then so did half of the fans on here. However, he could have made better subs.

Its natural frustration man. Nothing to be surprised at. We are probably all asking how the hell it could have happened. Has to keep the same team again for me (barring injuries). Keep the continuity. I'd change the side, i'd drop Nolan, Hall and Best.

Why on earth shouldn't we dicuss it then, you wally? Because we're not allowed to discuss anything on this forum. We can't be negative because we're in the top two, we can't be negative because we're unbeaten in 16, we just have to accept it because we can't win all the time. Being negative is fine, in context. Acting like the world is over because we have beaten once in 16 games is quite frankly stupid. Yes we have been fairly poor away from home but we were picking up points so it didn't matter. Now we have lost we need to review things and start a fresh. No whinging, just good old fashioned hard work.

in those 16 games there was one decent performance. But plenty of points. No wait... points are not important.

They're top because they're better than us. Don't blame referees, blame our inability to beat teams when we have them on the rack and our inability to go away and perform. Something like 6 pens in their last 9 games. Then the decisions we've had against us. We're complete opposites in luck currently. Im sure if we were getting endless pens we'd do better away from home also. To get pens you need players with pace and a degree of skill. Yes theyve won them all purely through their outstanding ability. Give me a break. It's sour grapes. You run at people with pace, you win pens. If you employ one-paced fucking plodders up front, you get nowt. Simple.

I hoped that we would pick the same team and, of course, now i wish we had not. I wonder how many others will be honest.

But...but...but...we're top of the table? And unbeaten? Surely that means we're good? We are second and yes it does mean we are fairly good. It's one thing saying we could improve our away form, it's another saying it's shit.

Yep, can point the finger at Hughton for many things as manager but the starting line-up tonight is hardly one of them. This.

Aye because a 1-0 defeat would feel sooo much better than a 3-0 defeat. When was the last time we were beaten 1-0 away from home in the league. Disappointed with our away form are you?

You can't say that mate, obviously if something goes wrong everything is f***ing s***. We have fluked the entire season and in reality should be mid table. Those of us with sense have known for a long time that we're stupidly reliant on the first choice defence. You too i'm sure. You are embarrassing. You can't have been fucking impressed with this season? I was talking about him sucking his own balls. Anyone who compliments their own knowledge wants a slap.

It's crazy. Nowt wrong with disapointment but fucking hell...

Erm Cardiff? Oh well, 3-0 we're f***ed! Maybe Hughton's usual negative away tactics aren't as bad as some people think? We all know Cardiff was a massive one-off. Isn't every 5-1 a massive one off? Stupid fucking comment.

How the fuck can we beat Cardiff 5-1 and then potentially lose 2-0 against Derby?

Lovenkrands and Ameobi on up front would shake things up. Derby will get very nervous.

Still got 45. Keep faith.

We should go at them now. Fuck sake.

Nowt to be scared of by the sounds of it. Couple of subs late on will win it for us.

Need shots at goal.
