Some of the people being linked with the job for them include Ray Graydon and Colin Calderwood.

Hopefully they won't have a new manager in place by Saturday, as that would probably give them a big boost.

This should be a reasonably comfortable win for us, but I have visions of us buggering it up and drawing 1-1.

I think a loss here would have the Anti Mcliesh out in full voice and deservedly so.

Brings back memorys of the Tote End and Ray Graydon, those were the days.

I wouldn't tinker with the side too much after the shambles v Swansea

I'd leave Cuellar , Collins and Gabby out and play Clark at CB with Albrighton, Bannan and Hutton coming in

This is our only chance of silverware so treat the competition with the respect it deserves (unlike Monsieur Houllier last season) and try to win it!

I'll go 0-3 Bent (2) and N'Zogbia

Rest gabby, petrov, cuellar for albrighton, Gardner, Hutton and we should still have more than enough.

Comfortable win against a poor team with no manager. No excuses.

Even with a team of reserves and kids  - lose this and he should have the grace to resign

Nothing against Rovers, but they are utterly dreadful. This should be a comfortable win.
