    I believe we have a sucky system (technical term) to draw water from the surface, so rare to have it cancelled (unless truly torrential). They'll probably water the pitch before the game anyway <laugh>

    Steve Bruce in today's echo shows why we have so much faith in his abilities. He recognises the success of Southampton as a whole. Expect City to play a technical game today.
    I don't expect to see a goal fest, in fact I doubt if there will be any goals from open play.

    Read that...he seems especially impressed by JWP, but also by Southampton as a whole. I am also impressed by Hull...I made the assumption that they would struggle based on nothing at all. Am expecting a tough game....we may need to score a few goals in this game.

    According to the rainfall radar ( http://www.raintoday.co.uk/ ) there's about an hour or so of rain left. Should be fine.

    It's been pretty relentless this morning. Hopefully it will quit before I have to travel to the game

    I hope you are right... I think Hull will try to park the bus today and will be difficult to breakdown. I think we might just edge it from a set piece, but I can see this one fizzling out into a draw.

    The forecast suggests it will clear up later.

    I have a gut feeling that a pitch inspection will take place and that the game wont happen.
    I hope that im wrong :cry:

    You are wrong. This is St Mary's we're talking about, not a crappy League 2 pitch.

    A five man defence won't be too much of an issue, especially if that means Hull are going to drop a man out of midfield. We could run them ragged if so.
