It's wake up time...we have a pair of complete lightweights up front with nothing to replace them. I know Hughes is supporting them publicly, but i am certain that when he sees their pitiful efforts he must be fuming. Every time i hear the blackburn end singing mccarthy's name when he's performed another poncy flick it drives me mad. i wonder how many filcks Hughes did in his career......he just got on with the job of making the defenders life hell, and doing what he was paid for.

5 out of 10 on today's. Steady.

the real test for our 2 star strikers will be to put in a performance when the opposition actually turn up. i've yet to see them give a hrad time to a defence of any quality. when i see that for several games i'll be convinced. pulling off a few fancy flicks against feeble opposition when you coasting at home doesn't convince me...lets see them do it when we're a goal down against a quality defence.

Ill go for a scrappy 1-0 to Rovers. Good preview Eddie.

Everton away was one of the ties I didnt want. Bring 'em back to Ewood and we'll be fine though.

3pm today

Rog of the rovers, we won after you did the preview again. Do it every week!

Yep he was, but his first touch managed to be even worse.

Good win with a good performance. I am, however, disappointed that we couldnt score a few more after going 2-0 up in the first 20mins.

Yes I got 6 on today's! Much much better for me

Definetely 2 home, can't decide between 1 or 3 away, though.

Great stuff Bob

Wolverine, you can only have 5 subs for a Premiership match.

Welcome to the board Max. Do you like an Italian side?

3 out of 10

Nonda needs sorting out. If Kuqi had scored 1 goal in 13 games, there would be a lynch mob after him. Also, Newcastle are apparently after Okkas.

Our next league game is on December 2, home to Fulham.

1-1

I'll go for 2-1.

I am just glad that the game Tugay will miss is Fulham.....should be able to beat them with or without him.

Just a note on Silva, got him on loan from Inter and he has been keeping Gamst out the team so far. Also, if you are in need of a cheap but good striker then check out Dagoberto, minimum release fee 1.4m.

1-0 19,500

Dissapointing. We didn't create any real chances, but i did think Zurab should have done better with his header off Pedersen's free kick.

This would be a great signing. Unlikely, as other clubs would want him, but you never know

For 8m as well
