Yes indeed, I spoke to Jack Rudoni in corporate before the game and I asked him if he is injured and he replied with, no I'm being rested.

Not what Lampard said. Either way if he is carrying any minor injury surely its better not to risk him

Rudoni has a knock and should be fine for Hull.

No he hasn't, I asked him directly he was rested.

 

[Gint11]

We created lots of clear cut chances?

Yeah but generally from last season, and shades of both games, we have high possession stats and low ‘shots on goal’

I’m optimistic we’ll be fine but I am concerned we play a lot of ‘middle of the park’ possession and often turn back then trying to get in and behind. We’ve seen games with 70% possession and 2 shots on target.

I’m concerned on a striker options. We need Wright or Simms firing.

If that's what Lampard said then someone's telling Porky's,

Lampard said he had a small calf strain and should be back in training on Monday.

Yeah and Jack Rudoni told me he was rested and not injured.

It's obviously the way the manager wants to play it,at home at least anyway but that was a poor lapse.
Let's face it he won't be afforded that amount of time week in week out,other than that he will be alright I'm sure,if he was blaming Sheaf as was suggested on here have a word,he was available and he would have had to come and take it from him.

Maybe Frank is trying to keep hull guessing on his fitness and Jack hasn’t read the script

Yep not bad for a friendly

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

He had 3 really, there was one in the first half which was a bit less clear cut

You mean the one that hit the post ?

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

He had a slight knock and precautionary to not play

He got something on that one I think didn't he?

 

[David O'Day]

to be fair i think some of the was designed to make them press us so me would try a tweaked build up shape

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

Saw the St Pauli team getting on their team bus carrying lots of sausages ! Where are they off to next !

Yes he did ok - BTA movement today was good - imagine if he could finish

This was their final pre season game. Well, the 1st round German cup is next but effectively is pre season also

Two honourable draws against two decent teams . I can live with that, gonna be different in the league when it means more but we are not a bunch of duffers.
Clinical striker still needed to be at the top end of the table but hey ho !

Bangor?

I think you're telling porkies.

 

[long way home]

With Rudoni two things can be true, may have a little niggle so resting him was the best option.

We’re 1 injury away from bidwell starting at centre half

Surely Lati?

 

[fernandopartridge]

You mean the one that hit the post ?

Yes, think it might have been the outside of the post

 

[Jonny]

He got a slight touch on it, enough to direct it onto the post. Top quality save.

 

[shmmeee]

Bangor?

No we’re just friends.

Their commentator almost said an English word, aluminium.

They picked that part of the game up when they made the subs.

Yeah and Jack Rudoni told me he was rested and not injured.

And if he told you he was injured you report that to the forum and a public meltdown ensues. Can't win really can they?

 

[stevefloyd]

He looked like he didn’t care when he scored albeit it’s pre season

to be fair he was probably as shocked as all of us he had actually scored !

 

[Jamesimus]

This is just how he is, he’s a chill guy.

Simms goal was simmsilar to his header @Sheff Wed away. I don't understand why he can't do simmsilar most matches.
