Just read Zigic is missing again for the big game against Barnsley tomorrow night. Quite concerned about this injury he has picked up. Nearly a month has passed since the injury occured and ever since, he has been doubtful for the upcoming matches but not to be seen on match day. Let's hope he can get fit ASAP for the run in.
We need a fully fit Marlon King back too. The game against Hull, he struggled big time and we need him fit and firing.
What do people think Hughton will do tomorrow night regarding the problematic left side of midfield? Got a feeling Redmond will start and Elliott to play off King (if fit) or Rooney.

Its got to the point now where if we dont have two fit strikers Redmond will start. Any news on Ndaw?? Not sure he would go for Jervis starting a game along side Rooney.
I think Burke will be back in for sure. KRO

N'Daw is apparently missing too.
Think Jervis will again be on the bench.
Burke has to be one of the first names on the team sheet.
Heres hoping we can get some bodies in!! KRO

Don't think Redmond will start
With Fahey, Gomis and Mutch in such good form, expect us to go 4-51 with Elliott and Burke on the wings and either King or Rooney up front.
I thought Rooney did OK on Saturday in a thankless role, he needs to work on either keeping the ball a bit better or releasing it earlier though. Bring Jervis on agin for last 20 mins

Hopefully Mutch will play centrally, he looks lost when he plays out wide and he looks so much better in the central areas.
We do though desperately need more options up top.
But hopefully we can grind another result tomorrow.

If only one up top I would have redmond and burke wide with Fahey and mutch in the middle and Elliot playing off the front man. Not sure elliot has got the pace to play out wide but is good as a link man. KRO

I think it will be a tough game tomorrow, they have been playing well at home recently. I really hope that Mutch does not play on the left, he is so much better in the middle.
Any news on Carr?
I think he will go with
Myhill
Spector
Davies
Caldwell
Murphy
Burke
Fahey
Mutch
N'Daw (if fit, I really don't like Gomis, would rather play Elliot in ther if N'Daw is not fit)
Redmond
King

This is a silly thought and hopefully has no bearing on the actual situation at all, but.....
Zigic scores and helps us win the League Cup, get's loads of media attention ~immediately goes missing injured, and for the rest of the season.
Zigic scores four goals in a game, get loads of media attention, raises his profile for potential buyers, again ~ immediately goes missing injured.
i think I am making something up here, but it will not shift from my head.
Sorry Nicola, please prove me absolutely wrong.

Lets hope this has no truth to it. But it is very familiar to last season. Just as he is getting into his groove, scoring goals and being a pain for defenders, he goes missing again.
Lets just hope he is there on Saturday and for the run in because its looking more and more likely that were struggling to get anyone in on loan! KRO

What about going for a loanee from Portsmouth ? Looks like they are desperate to stay afloat. Anyone worth loaning to pay their wages and help them out ? Poor helping the poor but anyone worthwhile ?
