Hughes has carried on where Souness left off- by signing older players. Despite being very old, Djoarkaeff can create and hopefully chip in with a few goals, too.

Charlton take the lead from El Karkouri's header from a corner. Went through brad's legs. I'm losing paticence with Brad!

Team: Freidel Neill Amo ? Gray Emerton Ferguson Flitcroft Pedersen Dickov Stead/ Jansen/ Bothroyd 1-1 scoreline. 100th post by the way!!!!!!

Johansson first, then Amoruso.

I think we are all getting a bit carried away now, Mrs J! We all thought jansen was back to his brilliant best after his superb goal against liverpool last season. We we all wrong. Jansen only notched once after that, which came against Genclebergi in the uefa cup. We didn't see him again after that because Dwight Yorke's very high work rate kept him out of the team. Lets hope Jansen can grab a couple of goals tonight and start getting his confidence back, and then jansen might be back!

The team should be: Enckleman Neill Mcevely Johansson Gresko Thompson Tugay Douglas Pedersen/de pedro Jansen Bothroyd 2-0 Rovers scored by Bothroyd and douglas.

With Sparky in charge, hopefully that can motivate the players and work harder. I'm changing my mind and going for a 1-0 win for us.

3rd choice, B.P! Honestly! When I first heard soness had gone one guy sprung to my mind - mark hughes. I would have liked Dowie or Strachan but trust me, hughes will be a big hit!

Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr........ I don't think Vratty deserves to have a place in the greatest ever left back. I'd definetely go for Le saux.

It willl be Hughes, but we better get him in before the pompey game or we'll face another roll over.

I really don't feel good about this game. Portsmouth are the most in-form team in the league, while we are the complete opposite. Hate to say it, but.................... 2-0 pompey Also we get our first penalty since a very long time ago but rovers take too long to decide who is taking it so the ref gets fed up and gives a goal kick.

Thats because he is.

If only........................................................

In the Newsagents up the road, there are newspaper boards saying ' Souness quits ' and then the shop owner has put words like ' praise the lord ' and stuff like that on. Obviously he isn't a fan of souness's then. Come to think of it, neither am I!

Someone on BBC Radio Lancs mentioned Otto Rehagel. Wouldn't say no to him.

Rik, please NO TEXT SPEAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's obvious now Yorke's gone ( not to mention the signing of bothroyd ) we have a stronger squad. Despite Cole going, we have brought Dickov in and we won't miss Cole. Matteo provides strength at the back while Pedersen will be a star. As for De Pedro, I think he's got to get match fit before he fights pedersen for the left wing spot.

Errrr, no! That was striker Rey Volpato from Padova. As for Bothroyd, i saw him in italy so i'll think he'll be a decent enough player.

I can see it being a repeat of 2 years ago ( 5-1 Newcastle ) unless Brad plays like he did on Saturday.

Anyone know who they are?

Spot on - my team exactly. Not a single person in midfield who can tackle. Can't Ferguson?

Could be worse How about 9-2

We'll get a what?

Knowing Souness pedersen will be our new keeper.
