Ive wondered about this but assume it won't happen. Feel he has the attributes to play there and his weakness in the air and impetuous diving in wouldn't be so exposed.

They said on Sky it was his 4th, but then said one of the 4 was in the Carabao, so I think he's only on 3 with regard to suspension from a league game

So, Charlie Hughes. Sometimes quite good, sometimes not so good. Not in my view anywhere near a Premier league defender at the moment and I wonder when people might see that maybe he isn't free of blame in our hopeless defensive record this season. There are times he goes in like a bull in a...

Genuine question. Do you have any hard evidence for this, or are you just thinking the club are leading us on? I agree the return date keeps going back but Dean Holden suggested yesterday that there had initially been a setback for Oli but that now they felt he was likely to be back for the Boro...

Absolutely. Neither might have scaled the heights of Hughes at his best but they were consistent performers and overall I think we looked much more solid with those two as a CB pairing. On several occasions yesterday, Hughes missed his header, lost his man from a cross. In fairness, our CBs were...

That's an interesting post. Lot of Hull fans probably thinking they would just automatically get the player of 2 years ago. Even then, I'm not sure he'd fit this team which plays at more pace.

I can't imagine any of us think this is easy. They've lost every home game this season on a ground which is normally a fortress and law of averages says it must change soon. I have never seen us get anything there. They might well have a new manager bounce too and we have injuries. At this...

I'd be very surprised if they don't have!

Thanks, will give it a go. if not I'll be relying on Burnsy to paint some pictures.

Are we not on Sky Sports live tonight? I assumed all champ matches would be on , but it doesn't look like it.

It may be worse because we're trying to play more attacking football, but Jones was a very reliable centre back, which is why he's playing for a team top of the table. I don't dislike Egan but I'm not convinced he is any better than Jones. And Mcloughlin was very good as a defensive left back...

Can't quite make my mind up as to whether our defensive frailty is a result of our more attacking approach meaning we're giving the opposition more of the ball, or whether it's about, dare I say it, not having 2 such reliable centre backs as Jones and Mcloughlin. I think it's a bit of both. Also...

For the last 4 seasons, I've watched the Bristol City away game from the disabled section as my sister in law's husband, who lives about a mile from the ground, had a major stroke in 2017 and I go to this game as his 'carer'. So was right on the front row, in line with the penalty area where we...

We won there in first Steve Bruce promotion season, or maybe it was his second. Either way I was there.

Many thanks for the suggestions - all sounds hopeful!
