Start with the team that ended the Leicester game. Minus Randolph.

Hull's home form is actually pretty good, they've only lost to Stoke outside of the top six there this season and given a few clubs a really good game there. Probably be happy with a point, given the injuries we've got and that we need to try and steady ourselves a bit.

Adrian back in in goal for a chance, as Randolph's form has deteriorated for me. Otherwise the only tricky choice is at left back - rest of the team almost picks itself, just a case of how they are arranged..

------------------ Adrian ----------------
Byram - Fonte - Kouyate - Cresswell/Masuaku
-------------- Nordtveit ----------------
---------- Noble - Lanzini -----------
Feghouli ---------------------- Ayew
---------------- Carroll -----------------

Win this and we're safe which won't be bad with 8 games still to go. Injury crisis so it will be tough.

I honestly think Slav will be in trouble if we lose this one.

I'd play Snodgrass against his old team. Normally a given that an ex-player comes back and scores.

They will be massively up for this. They need to win to stay in touch. I will be amazed if they don't come out all guns blazing looking to exploit the fact that our defence/midfield will be as disorganised as ever to start with. I fear they will be two up by half time.
We've actually had some decent away performances against 'lesser' teams (Swansea, Southampton, Boro) where we've conceded one but won. It's obvious but if we can hold on for the first 30-45 minutes then they will get tired and nervous. They key will be to a) sort out our set pieces and b) get Lanzini on the ball. Ayew needs to be like Antonio and carry the ball. I would keep Carroll to come off the bench but he's so useful defending set pieces that I'm sure Bilic will start him.

There's normally a few of us in Admiral of the Humber, really near station.

Some cracking pubs in the old town if you're into your ale and that as well. Black Boy worth a visit.

Will be a very difficult game so we will need as much passion and fight as we can get for this. Adrian, the Ginger Pele and Noble all back for this one for me.

Here's a fun game.

Which team is better, our available team, or our 'unavailable for reasons including sale, injury and God knows what else.' team.

Randolph
Byram Fonte Kouyate Masuaku
Noble Fernandes
Feghouli Lanzini Ayew
Carroll

Adrian
Arbeloa Reid Oxford Ogbonna
Obiang Cullen
Antonio Calleri Payet
Martinez

I think our available team would edge it, but the unavailable team have a better defence and game changers in that side.

I would snap someone's hand off for a draw and that is a sad indictment of where we are at right now.

Injuries may force Slaven's hand selection wise and whilst generally, we have played with more freedom away from home, Hull are no mugs at home and this will be a tough match. A win would be massive but a draw will not be a bad result.

These guys love hitting balls in behind, watched them a few times this year on the box. I think without Reid we will be in the ****, especially if Cresswell is still playing like he is smoking 50 Benson & Hedges everyday.

I see Markovic destroying Cresswell if he plays and If we play Collins and Fonte together N'diaye and Hernandez will be too pacey for them.
Avoid defeat here and we stay up easily.

Hull City 1-1 West Ham

I think we'll knick it only for the fact that they seem to have had worse decisions from the officials this year than anybody else!

I'm with others in that I would gladly take a point if offered now, as I think that would just about confirm us staying up for the season. Hull could be without Huddlestone which will be a huge miss for them in the middle of the park and would help with our injury concerns as well. If they appeal his decision however, I could see them winning it because I wouldn't have considered that a red card offense.

Head says 2-1 loss, heart says 2-1 win, which will probably even out into a 1-1 draw!
