I can understand why the fans believe that the players are demoralised. Captain and vice captain and the other two no shows will have been spreading a negative attitude in training and walking away yesterday will make it difficult for the manager to galvanise the rest of them in such a short period of time.Lincsaddick said:great preview and as welcome as a glass of water for a man lost in the Sahara.
We'll win this and go on to avoid relegation. I'd like to see McGeady and Hemed start, however the 5 subs rule gives all managers scope to mix and match more as the game pans out.
Chatting to a Hull fan last week, his take is that the players are demoralised. City's situation, though not as precarious as ours is not good as the owner's family have cut investment and can't wait to sell up.
Let's hope my contact is right on the money.
(For anyone in the area who can't get TV coverage etc, the game will be broadcast on BBC Radio Humberside, though I am not sure that can be picked up on the internet)
Hull City 0 v CAFC 2
Many of us would have experienced a good player leaving and it effects you. You feel let down. You feel negative about your chances of winning without them.
Time and training gets you back up there. They haven’t got that.
IF we win this, they may well stay in the bottom three. Massive game.3 -
Have to admit you look at the players that Hull have left and you have to question where their Championship talent / experience comes from
Its very much a squad of players that have tended to be successful in League One - I know we're very much the same but we do have a handful of players with that bit extra that you need in the Championship
Matthews - Williams - Pratley - McGeady the names Im thinking of... Whilst we may not get a win on Saturday (no guarantees) Id still question if its a matter of time before Hull do drop into the bottom three, especially when they lose Wilks
One fan I spoke to on twitter yesterday said that with Kingsley refusing to play they've now only got the one Full-Back and no wingers - Of course they'll have kids who will have to step up but as we saw during our worst period of the season, kids have a lot of effort and enthusiasm etc. but the lack of experience will be telling3 -
Probably (definitely) an element of blind faith, but I've got a feeling McGeady could be really important for us over the next 9 games.bazjonster said:

Would potentially be a game changer if these three lived up to their potential.So hard to predict, but I’m fed up of doom and gloom, so I’m going for an unlikely 2-1 win.
No doubt I'll be eating my words in a few weeks...6 -
Mcgeady on paper has all the attributes to be a real game changer, it all comes down to how much he wants, hopefully Bows has been able to get in his head.11

I sincerely hope you’re right but I’m the complete opposite. I think he’s a spent force and will hop from club to club for the next couple years for a pension doing the minimum required to keep fit, again, would love to be wrong.CAFCOlly said:

McGeady is still contracted to Sunderland for next season isn't he?5
-
I'd be happy not to lose this game and would settle for a point, having said that it going to be strange for both sides so let's nick it, 0-1 Bonne with something special.0
-
We are we with McGeady and what can we reasonably expect for the next nine games? With five subs allowed I think he could be very useful playing in short bursts.
He has had a really chequered career but what gives me some hope was his season with Preston a couple of years ago where he won their player of the year.
I recently listened to an interview with him for the Preston Official Website where he said that he wanted to continue playing for as long as possible. He indicated that he would rather play 'than sit at Sunderland and just collect my money '.
I suspect it is very unlikely that he would move here full time or that we could afford him but this is an opportunity for him to be in the shop window.
For this reason I think he will be motivated. The question is has he still got the ability.4 -
It's weird, this talking about football lark.7
-
I think some of our players will benefit from no crowd (Aneke, McGeady, Hemed etc.) as a lot of people are so quick to get their backs, they can just focus on playing football6

If McGeady makes me eat my words, I'll...have eaten my words3

The extended break makes you forget just how shyte we were before it. I’m hoping that the Taylor scenario will have galvanised the others rather than the opposite. Hull look to have been even more badly affected by recalcitrants and if anything their form was even more shyte than ours before the cease fire. For a gloomy bugger I’m feeling surprisingly confident about this one. 2-1 Charlton. COYR.0

Sunderland mate said McGeady will be your best player. He hasn't been, but now perhaps he can show it. One nil Charlton, McGeady.

Mate of mine has put £100 on us to win this weekend.
I'm confident we can win, but not that confident.

2-1 to cafc. Bonne and sarr in stoppage time.Maddison red for them.Come on you reds1

I've got a feeling something strange will happen.
Large will bundle over their goalie and the ball will bounce in the goal off Golfie's bum while his looking for his lost contact lens.4 -
Maddison won't be involved.0

I've got no idea how we'll line up or what players Bowyer will pick as it's such a unique situation. Before the break it would have been one struggling team (us) vs a team even more out of form (Hull). 3 months off is a complete wildcard, time for some players to come back fit and sharp and for others to go off the boil.
I expect it to be really cagey with both teams desperate not to concede, as we've struggled to score while Hull have shown a tendency to collapse once behind.5 -
I think the game will be higher scoring than we might expect normally due to rustiness on both sides. If we can score first we will win. 4-2 Addicks Bonne 2 Williams PearceCan't wait to get going again!0

Let alone score 4 against Hull.4 -
2-0 Charlton....Lets just go for it!!
Bonne x 22 -
You're right of course. 1-0 Vs Hull and 7 draws two being score draws and one 18-0 defeat should see us safe.blackpool72 said:
