I'd like to see Ranger start as it goes. Think both Shola and Lovenkrands are looking a bit leggy lately. And Joey has gone a bit stale on the right, so I would move him inside. Which would mean playing Raylor, but at least his set pieces and crossing are decent.

Would like to see ;

Krul

Simpson Colo Williamson Enrique

Raylor Barton Tiote Jonas

                  Nolan

                Ranger

But will see ;

Krul

Simpson Colo Williamson Enrique

Barton Tiote Nolan Jonas

Shola Lovenkrands.

Probably scrape a 2-1 or something.

shola will put in a performance, at home to a s*** team and due a game to pretend he's any good.

Probably. Same with Lovenkrands. Can see both of these scoring on Saturday. Although I've stuck a fiver on Williamson since the Liverpool home game, surely he's got to soon!?

I've went for 2-1 with all three goals to come from midfielders. Its always an awful game when the brummies come to town. Scrappy and blunt. Still, i'd take any three points right now. The phrase 'still above the mackems' needs to be cemented in place at 5pm on saturday.

I'm thinking 4-1. Don't think I have big enough balls to throw money away two weeks in a row though.

Thinking about it, Ranger has to start this one, for me

 

Why?

 

Because I'm sick of the lack of movement up front. We need to put some pressure on their defence even if it is someone running about like a headless chicken. Otherwise they are going to stand and pick their arses all day with Ameobi and Loven dawdling about.

Who'll be our next player to pick up an injury from this game, and be 'ruled out for the rest of the season'?

My early season prediction of us not winning a home game 1-0 all season looks like coming off.

 

Doubt this one will be that. I'd say 2-1 to us, Lovenkrands and Shola.
