AN says Hooper's injured. Not that that is a big deal I suppose.
Grabban may feature in the squad.

Yeah I think that Hooper was mentioned as injured last weekned too?
I am all for forgiving and forgetting in this money-driven football world, that we live in, and if Neil says Grabban's ready to be let back into the fold then fine. But I do think that Lafferty, after his form for NI and the clear comments he made about his commitment, deserves to be above him in the pecking order. Ultimately, Neil would probably say that it's about putting out the team that's most likely to get a result, and that might mean Grabban fits the system better than Lafferty, but that's just my feeling. There has to be some sort of credit given to commitment and attitude, even if we accept that footballers cannot be expected to be loyal.
Based on attitude and form, I'd be with you on putting Lafferty ahead of Grabban in the pecking order:
- Jerome
- Mbokani
- Lafferty
- Grabban
- Hooper
Enjoy your 3pts this weekend.![]()
You never know, but I don't think we're holding our collective breath!

Feed2all showing a link to it:What's the point of it being a Sunday fixture if Sky and BT aren't showing it?
Don't get it if you qualify for Europe that should be the leveller to allow us little clubs get an advantageBecause Liverpool played a Europa game on Thursday, so that pushed our game to a Sunday.
It's always been that away and it seems fair to me. Especially if you have to travel abroad, that doesn't give you much time to prepare for the next game. Maybe they could move the Europa games to a Tuesday and Wednesday then keep the Saturday games.Don't get it if you qualify for Europe that should be the leveller to allow us little clubs get an advantage
They have a big enough squad to cope
But doing that would devalue / dilute the Champions League bollocks by which they - and the global football watching public hold such store. Four (4) English "champions"?Maybe they could move the Europa games to a Tuesday and Wednesday then keep the Saturday games.

Don't see how it would devalue the Champions League as what I see no one cares enough about the Eupora league. But I was just saying if people wanted to keep the Saturday fixture they would have to move the Europa games which will never happen anyway.But doing that would devalue / dilute the Champions League bollocks by which they - and the global football watching public hold such store. Four (4) English "champions"?Yeah, right
