Can I predict their third coming from a penalty, courtesy of Alan Hutton?

should have named unchanged team , we had a good balance but gabby is better in the middle and benty although a finisher contributes little in build up play.

Got to feel sorry for Carlos. The perfect excuse for McLeish to persevere with his four favourites at the back for the rest of the season.

We have four absolute liabilities for defenders. Warnock, Collins, Dune and Hutton

2-0 down to a side that's not won away all season, and he brings on ASBO Hutton? Fucking seriously?

Its sad watching a team that have such a paucity of resources in terms of players and money completely out pass and out play us. Their coaching is simply far better.

What's Clark done to be replaced?

We need three goals, so replace Warnock with Clark at LB and bring on Albrighton.

So negative attack from Zogbia. First he plays the ball 10 yards behind Gabby, then later runs the ball out.

This is the usual Zogbia 2nd half?

Blackburn beat United.

Chelsea were as bad as they'll be all year, I'm not sure we can use it as an indicator of this team not being shite.

Its easier to motivate yourself against a top team rather than a 'lesser' team?
