Could somebody please remind me what I have to do if Rovers score a goal???? My memory is not so good these days and it seems like a while since...

[Tom]

Remember Ravanelli? Well not that as you may get kicked out

spray ralgex on ya neck! if you dont it will be hurt from continuosly looking up!

[roversmum]

And probably frighten several thousand supporters away as well, TCO.

Goodness, Abbey, I had forgotten about that. Got a dodgy neck at the moment anyway, hope the wind doesn't change, or I might get stuck with my face in the air.

[ABBEY]

frighten maybe but its the only way zzzzam will see any cups at ewood

Team for me:-

-------------------------Kalinic

----------------------Pedersen

-------Olsson----Grella-----Reid-----Emerton

Chimbonda-----Givet-----Nelsen----Salgado

-----------------------Robinson

Where are our goals going to come from?

No, we want a PROPER 4-4-2 tonight - two wide men, football played as the Lord intended. Not this 4-3-2-1, or 4-4-1-1, or 4-2-3-1,or 4-5-1 balls that just does NOT work - unless like the last 2 wins lady luck is on our side.

For me:

Robbo

Emerton

Nelsen

Givet

Chimbonda

Hoilett

Grella

Reid

Olsson

Di Santo

Kalinic

And just so it's clear - that's two strikers, up-front, all the time! When we get Basturk fit then let's think about 1 up front ....

Couldn't better the thoughts and line-up myself.

[Tom]

Think it would be harsh to drop Pedersen seeing as how he's been one of our biggest threats recently and made one and set up the other in the last home game

[cn174]

3-1 Rovers - don't care who scores.

I told Mark 6-1 before, but I think I was being a tad optimistic! COYB!!

[Tom]

I hate this time before kick off waiting for that unpredictable team news

[RibbleValleyRover]

If Radio Lancs is correct there is going to be some unhappy fans when they hear the team news...

[hollowsr]

Come on you can't say just that, Andrews? Roberts? Rigters???

[RibbleValleyRover]

Come on you can't say just that, Andrews? Roberts? Rigters???

They reckon Diouf, Andrews and Salgado are in the side. Lets see if they are correct...

[Tom]

You're a funny guy RVR

[hollowsr]

Oh god!! Really hope not but think they will be!

[Tom]

Uh oh he's right

ROVERS: Robinson, Salgado, Nelsen ©, Givet, Olsson, Diouf, Emerton, Nzonzi, Andrews, Pedersen, Kalinić.

Subs: Brown (GK), Roberts, Reid, Hoilett, Di Santo, Jones, Chimbonda.

Please God no .... if that's the case a draw will be a fantastic result for us.

EDIT: Just seen the team - Rovers 1 Hull 2.

[hollowsr]

They are:

ROVERS: Robinson, Salgado, Nelsen ©, Givet, Olsson, Diouf, Emerton, Nzonzi, Andrews, Pedersen, Kalinić.

Subs: Brown (GK), Roberts, Reid, Hoilett, Di Santo, Jones, Chimbonda.

[Craigman]

ROVERS: Robinson, Salgado, Nelsen ©, Givet, Olsson, Diouf, Emerton, Nzonzi, Andrews, Pedersen, Kalinić.

Subs: Brown (GK), Roberts, Reid, Hoilett, Di Santo, Jones, Chimbonda.

[Tom]

Fair enough bring Salgado in and put Chimbo on the left but this is just bizarre.

Olsson shines on the left and Pedersen in the middle so lets put Olsson at left back and Pedersen on the left, superb.

Then who could we possibly have on the right to be the most ineffectual, thats right Diouf.

BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE IT'S A SCREAMER

KEITH SODDING ANDREWS

[BuckyRover]

After a positive few weeks Sam has again decided that he would like to be sacked!

I will wait until full time though, still reckon that team can turn Hull over.

KEITH SODDING ANDREWS

Allardyce is absolutely f**king clueless. The sooner he goes, the better. If he seriously thinks that is our best team given the players available, he's not fit to be our manager - simple as.

[hollowsr]

After recent comments surely he can't be thinking of playing Gamst on the left again! I can only hope it will be

Kalinic - Andrews (Keep him out of the way)

Gamst

Diouf N'Zonzi _ Emerton

[neophox]

With the players available I would have played this eleven:

Robinson

Salgado/Chimbonda, Givet, Nelsen, Olsson

Emerton, Nzonzi, Pedersen, Hoilett

Kalinic, Roberts

I just hope Basturk and Dunn is back soon.

I think we'll miss Samba and I am a bit worried about Salgado, time for him to show his class in a rovers shirt.
