Fingers crossed. Forgetting @Saddlebrains for the moment, I hope the club stop the leak at source. Must be more than a bit annoying.

So do I on this occasion.

As I say this info was being thrown about 48 hours ago. I never get told anything until night before / morning of

It's two shit options but I would prefer that to Binks.

Couldn't bear another game where he makes one good pass, spends the rest of the time out of position leading to us conceding and getting a 7 on the match ratings.

It's RCB that's why I'm assuming Latibeaudiere in this case. Just annoying if it's true as I'd accepted the keeper situation, but Collins being protected by flat foot Joel is nightmare fuel.

I’ve long accepted that God is a Lesta fan. He’s just smiting them now for sacking off Ranieri years ago.

Torp I can see but the other two doesn’t make sense to me. EMC was taken off as he had ran out of energy and looked fine coming off the pitch.

Thomas was absolutely fine last game. Would have to be some ridiculous bad luck

Dovin and Torp during games, rotten luck but saw how they happened. The rest all happening in presumably low intensity training sessions is bizarre.

Hopefully it’s all BS

I agree

I'm hoping I get absolute shit thrown at me come 7PM this evening. Unlike GIMOC, I hold my hands up when wrong and take the fire

I cant take plaudits when things like transfers are correct and not take the abuse if things are wrong, works both ways

I think some of you on here need to calm down. It’s a fans message board ffs. Opposing teams are not monitoring what goes on on here .
It’s not Bletchley park, and we don’t have any great secrets.
We just chat,take the p*** and hopefully share any info we get coming out of the club.
So just lighten up a little, it’s not a world war.
Oh and I have had a Quick Look at their board, and one twa* thinks a bunch of twa** on here have mentioned something about injuries,which is probably a load of anyway.

Our bench was crap the last time we made the playoffs too

I know your thing is to constantly run around and claim the sky is falling in, but of the players you claim to be injured, only Thomas would make the first XI substantially weaker by his absence

Not trying to take sides here at all, but we did lose the playoff final. Hamer got injured, who did we have to bring on? The likes of Maguire...

Thomas being out injured would be the biggest blow. EMC too but at least we can shuffle the pack in the forward line.

We’re down to standing wounded in central midfield but there should still be sufficient cover, hopefully.

I don't really see the problem in leaking the news a bit early. Each club will have an extensive list of strengths and weaknesses of every single player in the championship. Know how each other set up, styles of play etc etc.

No excuses tonight, we really need to win this game and then we go into Friday knowing WBA need to come at us and win that game to stay in contention. Win tonight and we'll win Friday.

There was a guy sat behind me that said a couple of times Thomas was struggling as he was bent over looking to the bench, at the time I assumed he was just blowing. He's the type of player who would play through a niggle and fair play to him for it, the worry is he may have aggravated something in carrying on though

Torp no surprise - think we all knew that seeing injury.

EMc - been carrying toe type injury, wonder if that’s just got unmanageable?

thomas - huge blow, at both ends. Let’s hope just a knock. concern is who replaces him, do we have to go 532 as can’t play lati in 4 for me.

Maybe it's a ploy by the club, to MAKE Hull believe these players are missing, so they make adjustments.

It will then shock then when Thomas scores a hat-trick from 3 EMC crosses.

More likely a ploy by the club to find the leak.

Dasilva has managed to turn a corner in the last few weeks, figuratively.

It takes Latibeaudiere a few weeks to turn a corner full stop.

Lati is quite good in the air, also he’s not that bad as a CB its at RB, RWB he struggles because he’s slow, but we lose a lot more than a CB in Thomas, as frequently Thomas ventures into the attack and makes a nuisance of himself can’t see Lati doing that, Bobby is very quick at getting back Lati would probably still be on the edge of the box lying on the floor after diving over the ball by the time Hull score

If he has suffered a huge blow at both ends it could be career-threatening.

I would like to think that the rumour is bollocks and Lampard is just trying to fish out the source of the leak.

We know he doesnt like info slipping, as his reaction to when Bielsa spied on his Derby team was telling.

Latis put in some good performances at centre back it’s when he’s played anywhere else he struggles. It’s not that long ago he was getting in the team over Thomas.
