JH Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 What about David Edgar? Good point, I forgot he was still here. Is he injured? If he's not getting a look in with the seniors he should at least be getting some reserve matches shouldn't he? (ah, the Xisco conundrum again...) He's a shocking Premier League player. His performance against Liverpool at Christmas gives me nightmares. League 1 standard at best. Worse than Huntington ever was. Scored the goal that gave us our last home point against Man U tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 I predict lots of booing from the fans at the end of the match to shred any last confidence the team has left after 90 minutes tomorrow. Always the fans fault. If it weren't for that banner, we'd be pushing Everton for that European spot. Robson would probably have stayed another year or two if it wasn't for the fans, tbf Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ember Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 That article says Smith and Geremi likely to play 'major roles'. Crikey we're gonna get smashed off the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Normally I'd be sat hear saying well we drew against Chelsea by defending well but without Beye that back four just doesn't look quite right so really we have no other option than to have a go. I'd rather suffer a heavy defeat gunning for glory than sitting back trying to play games we can't play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ember Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 It's not impossible to get something out of this game, it's just about 98% certain we'll get hammered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisMcQuillan Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 That article says Smith and Geremi likely to play 'major roles'. Crikey we're gonna get smashed off the pitch. I think Geremi could be a useful asset. He's about the only player on the pitch who can drift useful balls over the top for Martins. Shame Man U will close him down too quickly, but if he gives it his all, he might be useful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Immsy7 Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 I'd go with: Harper S.Taylor Colo Bassong Enrique Smith R.Taylor Jonas Martins Lovenkrads Viduka I like it, maybe swap Smith for Geremi...shame it will never happen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 ............................Harper.......................... Saylor......Colo..................Bass..........Ricky .......Raylor............Smith............Ron......... Martins............................................Jonas ............................Duke............................. Oba and Jonas can cut inside and have a pop at goal. Viduka might occasionally hold the ball up which would be handy. The problem we'll have is substitutions. Viduka, Geremi nor Smith will last 90 mins imo.

matta Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 hopefully we can put out a good figure for 90 minutes, finish injury free and get a solid platform to hammer Hull like they won't see a tomorrow again. Owen Martins Løvenkrands Jonas sure should bring pace to a rusty Hull defence line. Maybe even manutd on a good day? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 The only chance of getting a decent result (I'm not sure if I mean points-wise, or keeping the game close) is to go in with the right attitude, which will be a big ask. The players are human beings, and if Man Utd score early on then it's a huge test for anyone, even those of big personalities. If the team can harass their players, and keep their chins up, along with Man Utd not being on top form, then you have chance. A lot of ifs, though.

TêteDeMaure Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 I'm wondering, is it worth getting cold for. I'm also thinking will i at least be encouraged by 1 piece of decent play, pressure? Wouldn't dare even dream of a goal. Don't know which i'd rather, to get fucking hammered as i fully expect, or to be absolutely gutted by a cracking performance and getting beat 1-0.

Guest Ebolarama Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 We won't "go for it". Hughton doesn't know how. We'll sit back, play Geremi and get absolutely fucking crumped. Or just lose one-nil. Either way... yup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BONTEMPI Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Formation i'd go for is Harper S.Taylor Colo Bassong Enrique R.Tayor Jonas Geremi Lovenkrands Martins Viduka At least Jonas would be breaking play up in the middle when we loose the ball and not passing it straight back like butt everytime. What have we got to loose? Lets fuck em Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallihg Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Hope Geremi doesnt start but what choice do we have. It will be embarrasing. Just think how Man U's midfield will be. Geremi is shit and hell be humiliated again and again. Hopefully Smith will be up for this, that might actually reduce the embarrassment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
