***Official Hull v City match thread***

[Hutch's Shoulder]

In the absence of something better, I’ll have a go at starting the thread…..

For the avoidance of doubt this game is against Hull, not Roma or Porto, and we are away, i.e. it is played in Hull, not Manchester.

It’s a traditional, but unusual, 3pm Saturday K.O. at the KC Stadium, and the lizard-in-disguise (referee) will be Anthony Taylor.

Last season we won 2-0 with 10 men, in what I thought was one of our best all-round performances and where the heart of the side shone through; Manuel says he hopes for the same this year (I assume he means the win not the 10). Hull are still City not Tigers, but have conceded nine goals in their previous four matches in all competitions, and thrown away winning positions in a pair of 2-2 draws in the League……. meanwhile City have 2 points from the last nine in the PL so a win is essential for us.

Definitely out are Fernando and Jovetic, although they are expected back next week, and Nasri with a groin strain (no date expected back given by the boss today). Spanish Dave and Sergio are fit, and Zabba is back from suspension. Vincent will return at the heart of the defence, but will the Mangler or MDM be his partner? My money is on a back five of Hart, Zabba, VK, MDM and Clichy, but the mid-field is harder to call.

Thanks for the intro, and the team selection will be an interesting one with Roma to play on Tuesday. Team for tomorrow with that in mind:
Hart
Zaba Kompany MDM Clichy
Fern frank
Milner Yaya silva
Sergio

Hull are a good side with one or two dangerous players but I'm going for 2-1 to the might Blues

Just saw Steve Bruce was drinking picking up some new ideas for tomorrow's in a bar in Manchester. Here's hoping he'll be drinking for sorrow tomorrow eve

Are you sure you want to play Gnégnéri?

And I would play 4-4-2, Dzeko has just got his shooting boots back from the cleaners.

Do you have any other devices to use such as laptop, windows PC or android (don't bother mentioning Apple products).

Does your phone bend in your pocket and lock up at the slightest hint you've swiped and tapped at the same time?

You may have an iPhone6.

Sorry PBL, can't help for today! But going forward you need to buy yourself one of these

http://www.expansys.com.au and search Minix Neo 8 (or those here in the UK go to Amazon)

No idea how much that equates to in sterling but seems cheaper than what I paid for mine here in blighty when it launched in July. Fooking cracking piece of kit and haven't failed to watch one of our games yet. Although primarily bought for the footie, I use it for movies and TV shows, with access to all the latest movies, even those still in cinema here in the UK.
I just plug it into whichever tv I 'allowe to use' at the time and off I go. It is small enough to take anywhere that has wifi connection. So when I go away on business I just plug it into the hotel tv

I can give you a link at the half but I need my PC, and I am using my iPhone at the moment.

[Pretty Boy Lee]

Not used to this me. I have pay tv but am away on the gold coast for a football tournament and forgot the fuxking laptop.

Rank amateur.

Also do I need an account to watch a silly dickhead who forgot his computer version?
