if Ronaldo is reading this he will have just jizzed in his trousers. Vuckic starts!

My high school P.E teacher was best man at Martin Taylor's wedding.

Nolan and Gezza won't be up to another 90 mins like.

Not so much a footballer, but a "footballing connection" is that my dads mate used to be in a band with Barry Moat over 20 years ago.

Too late...

Sorry but Ben Foster will be told NSG & Gorilla are our two best ones. Our third best is just dumping everyones bags in the goalmouth. Then, probably Foster would come into the equation as a fourth pick.

To be fair to Hughton, I think LuaLua would have replaced Gezza at some point were it not for the fact we had to use up a sub to remove Simpson after his injury.

I want LuaLua to have a good game above all else, gives Hughton an excuse to play him wide right instead of putting a CM there.

GK: Krul RB: Tavernier CB: S.Taylor CB: Tozer LB: Kadar RM: LuaLua CM: Butt CM: Donaldson LM: Guthrie ST: Ranger ST: Lovenkrands Subs: Soderberg, Baheng, Vuckic, Barton, Coloccini, Inman, Ferguson

I'm astounded we didn't follow our recipe from the last however many seasons: naff team in first cup game, PL team and defeat in the second.

Aye, I work with his auntie.

So where does he play, right back?

Who told you that, binnsy? Very unexpected tbh.

No Vuckic... should get a seat on the bench at the least tomorrow night

Aye, but there's a montage of Kevin Lisbie that makes him look fucking prolific.

After the hour? He was hunched over after about 20 mins on Saturday. After the teams came out of the tunnel, he sprinted over to the Gallowgate and applauded, and then breathed in and out heavily several times.

I don't know how Nolan has played 90 minutes so many times. He's blowing out of his arse not long after the hour, baffling how he doesn't get subbed

Starts for Kadar, Krul, LuaLua and Ranger please. Bench cameos for Vuckic, and maybe Donaldson or Baheng if we can afford to.

I don't have a clue what fraser is on about here, not a bladdy clue.

Hope so.

He made three changes from the team beaten by Blackpool; this included dropping Butt. Which big players is he accommodating? Nolan. He could play 4-4-2 and accommodate Nolan. What he did was play 4-5-1 or 4-4-1-1 (imo it was 4-5-1) for 60 minutes and then made the changes that got the win; can't see much wrong with that. And why did he play 4-5-1? To accomodate 'senior pro' Kev, opposed to starting a proper striker in Ranger and going 4-4-2 from the outset.

How is that old school btw? You can be quite the annoying little twerp can't you.

Agree. I'm not part of the Ranger wankwagon but I think at the moment, he should partner Carroll. I agree that Lovenkrands is better as a striker but we have literally no-one else for the left hand side without wasting a central midfielder out there.

No. It was a very below-par performance, with shit tactical nous as the formation up top was woeful, that was rescued by Hughton finally realising that 4-4-2 > 4-5-1 at home.
