    A draw would be a good result and the minimum required. All three points are preferable but a point wouldn't be too bad.

    We will have a very tough game against forest next week so a win would certainly help.

    The one thing I'm clinging onto is motivation. If the players can't be pumped up by this weekend's result and the prospect of gaining back 2nd spot then I don't know what will and we don't deserve to go up

    We do deserve to go up though. This season so far,we've got where we are by playing proper football. Beautiful game stuff whenever we could.

    If we can go up playing the way we've tried to all season,i'll be a proud man. Time wasting,diving,dirty fouls and bad officialdom,we've seen it all. On top of that,some of our best players have been long term injuries.

    We need some luck,and we're due some. Cross them fingers !

    I think we deserve to go up too, we don't get as many penalties as some teams get. Maybe we'll get one tomorrow for once.

    Well some people will argue that our poor goal scored/conceded ratio implies we are punching above our weight as we have not been as convincing as other teams.

    Looking back I think with 10 games left we should be delighted with where we are.

    I do agree we are probably one of the unluckiest teams in the league.

    What will Gedo and Fathi make of playing in a snow storm?

    They don't seem the kind who'd be affected by adverse weather conditions, I'd be more worried about someone like Cam or Cairney if they were playing.

    I just know if we concentrate and we handle the nerves we can do this!

    I'm starting to become slightly more positive for tomorrows game, which is bound to be a bad thing.

    Just looked in their last 2 home games Burnley drew with Barnsley and lost to Huddersfield, who I consider to be the worst footballing side in the league. Maybe, just maybe, we'll smash them and make up for the last 7 all at once. 6-1 City I reckon ...

    With all of the top 6 losing (that played) over the weekend except Palace it all adds up be a great night for Hull City. Win @ Burnley and it sets up nicely the Forest game on saturday. Win that and we enter the final International Break as a top 2 club. Then watch all the fuss about Udders travel and tickets unfold even further.

    It does get quite cold in Egypt, I have been there and it was down to 6 degrees in the evening.
