good luck to nige picking a team for this one. Marshall Lenihan Hector Clark clackstone Hamilton Meyler Batty Irvine Evandro Dicko No idea really what we'll do. No injuries hopefully. Dour 1-0 to us. These sides have not met in the FA Cup since February 1954 when Hull won a fourth-round replay at Boothferry Park. Hull have progressed from five of their last six FA Cup third round ties, with their only failure in that time a 2-0 defeat away at Arsenal in 2014-15. Tony Mowbray has only been eliminated once in six previous FA Cup third round ties after losing to Burton Albion in 2010-11 as Middlesbrough boss. Nigel Adkins, meanwhile, has not won in the third round of the FA Cup since beating Coventry in January 2012 as Southampton boss - he has lost each of his last three third-round ties.
If Marshal is in goal I expect us to lose. By a lot. For the first time I can remember I’m not bothered by an FA cup run. Might change if we went on one I guess but not expecting one.
Can't see us getting much from this one, best hope is bringing them back to the KCOM for a replay IMO. I hope I am wrong, as a win could be just what the doctor ordered. (Not Assam Allam reference there)
Good news. Fingers crossed for him. Will Keane is set to make a return to action with the Tigers’ U23s on Monday night. The 24-year-old striker hasn’t played for 14 months after suffering a serious knee injury against Southampton in November 2016, but after careful rehabilitation he is ready to get his boots back on. Although Keane is only likely to play for around 20 minutes of the Professional Development League fixture against Crewe Alexandra at North Ferriby, it is a huge step for the former Manchester United striker and Head Coach Nigel Adkins is pleased to see him progressing well. “Will will start the game and the plan is for him to play around 20 minutes,” said Adkins. “That is all part of his planned rehabilitation and that is really encouraging for him. He’s been training with the group and he’s looked good. “I’ll have the opportunity to look at some of the younger players in that game as well and see them in a match situation rather than just in training.”
Won’t we need L**ds to win if we lose because if they lost we’d still play the league game? Anyway a non league away day with Scarbs is a great option if that does occur
