The Humberside Kingston upon Hull Tiger cubs are playing the Stoke-on-Trent pottery city chaps on Saturday with a 5:30pm kick-orf. Mike Dean is the special guest referee for this, so he will no doubt star in this referee's match. Give it some beans Mike, i know i do!

I wish you success in achieving that personal goal, but I'm predicting a 3-1 victory for the Stoke Pottery Lions.

I rarely get this feeling but I think we'll win.
Normally I expect the worse but I can't help thinking we are coming into a bit of form.....hopefully at just the right time.

Do you reckon the protests will have a negative effect on the Hull players ? I do hope so

Bragging rights for the 'Best Club on the Trent' up for grabs tomorrow. Go on Stoke.
I have every confidence, but little certainty that we'll give 'em a thraping. Hoping Kenny has a run out at some point, stoke up the atmosphere with a rousing rendition of 'Steve Bruce is a ...'.

Stoke have only played 2 away matches against teams in the bottom half of the table so far this season (WH won, F lost). So this is another test of how good Stoke really are this season.
Come on the Potters!

Got to be Assiadi if only for his heroics against chelsea Could say the same about Pennant and West ham, I'd probably lean more towards Pennant because at least we know he has a good game in him at Prem level, but I think Hughes will go with Assaidi though.

We (should really) always beat hull! Let's hope bego start in goal. Who would be the keeper on the bench if tommy starts and begovic is out of the game all together? butland is at barnsley still right? My tip: 0-0, maybe 1-0 stoke. ireland with the goal and that.

It'd be better if injuries/suspensions had less of an influence over squad choice.... But it's all part of the unpredictable journey. An interesting test of the squad..
I'd shake it at 'em.....
--------Bego/Sorro ---Cameron Ryan Wilson ------Whelan N'Zonzi ---Jones------- Adam --Ireland Crouch Assaidi
or thereabouts, congest their penalty area with a floating front five. Muniesa in reserve and such....
Go on.*

I just hope that we don't uphold the trend of reserving our shittest form for televised games (Liverpool last year excepted). A back to back win in some style would go a long way to settling people down and giving us a strong platform for a difficult group of Christmas games.

I'd like a line-up of:
Bego
Cameron - Shawcross - Huth - Pieters
Whelan - Nzonzi
Mike Dean
Arnie Ireland Assiadi
Crouch

With injuries and suspensions MH can't pick what he thinks is his best team.
This cuts both ways there will be some players keen to take their opportunity and play for a regular place in the side (or in the squad with the transfer window approaching), or there may be players who think they are so important to the side they can't be dropped.
I hope it's the former and Stoke play well, but if it's the latter, I hope MH takes due note and gets rid of the offenders and replaces with quality players that want to make an effort.
