He hardly even touched the ball in the second half, not sure how you work that one out.

These got lost at the bottom of a page, so I'll repost (with a slight amendment) Harper 7 Simpson 4.5 Coloccini 5 S.Taylor 6 Enrique 6.5 Jonas 7 Smith 5 Nolan 5 Guthrie 6 Ameobi 4 Lovenkrands 6 Carroll 5 R.Taylor 5.5

No worse than Colo tbf to him.

Lovenkrands is such a brave bloke, fair play to him. And what a header.

£28 plus stakes.

For £500,000? Yes. Was poor tonight though.

Aye, back to good old vintage Shola, fucking shite for the main.

Clearly channeling Allardyce's spirit; that was one of his favourite soundbites.

Lovenkrands to score at 2/1 - £10 Nolan to hit the woodwork at 9/1 - £2 Half time draw, full time draw at 4/1 - £2 Newcastle to win 3-0 at 22/1 - £1

There was an article posted earlier today saying he was making himself available, turns out it was right.

Excellent line-up, good to see Carroll benched and Lovenkrands deserves praise for just starting the game.

Are we talking in a season, or this match?

I'm fairly sure that's what he'll go for. Personally I'd go with Guthrie in the centre with Smith, and Shola up front with Nolan. However, there's about as much chance of that happening as there is of Skirge starting the match at centre-back.

Then who do you want instead? Ameobi and Nolan Ameobi and Ranger either or. edit: assuming Lovenkrands doesn't start the game.

I'm going to be well fucked off if it's Carroll and Shola up front.

Good post. I think that often, people tend to remember their bad or slightly over the top reports and forget the good ones that are far more frequent.

Kinnear. Although I was fairly certain he wasn't a manager, but a Rab C Nesbitt impersonator.

It would be brilliant if we offered a deal till the end of the season, followed by a coaching role next season.

Good post.

Craig Moore will probably be next.

It's one of those that you'd have to actually see him in a game to be sure what you're getting, in terms of his fitness.

Do Hull have a striker who's scored more than twice? Off the top of my head: Ghilas 1 Hesselink 2 Fagan 1 or 2 Folan 0 Altidore 0

Go into work half an hour early to make up the time?
