So Mackie it is then!

4/1 Lambert to be first goal scorer....lump on

[Norths]

Would love to see this as a front 4 but we know HR will never go all out attack.

Swp-------Hoilett------Townsend
--------Adel or Remy------------

[stanistheman]

Bothroyd played in the reserves in midweek. Is he maybe thinking of starting with him?

Unless he has been injured, Bothroyd should have been playing since Remy got injured if not alongside him before. He has played in the FA Cup and scored, so why not against West Ham, Norwich Swansea and Man Utd?
As for starting Mackie tomorrow, Redknapp must be nuts. He hasn't scored since Villa which was 12 league games ago.

If only Zamora and Remy could have remained fit together i think we would have had a real chance.

[jmelanie]

Did Harry say last week it was going to be the combination of Remy and Zamora that would save the season. Ah well.

[LoftusRoadLad]

Where has "in Harry we trust" gone ?

Where has "in Harry we trust" gone ?

i'm afraid in my eyes it never arrived

I think Harry thought the same. The only problem is Zamora is really not fit and Remy has had injuries in the past which seem bound to return.

"In Harry we rust"

[BUSHRANGER1982]

Have to say, I'm not surprised Zamora's out for tomorrow.
Didn't look too good before being substituted against Utd, Vidic crashed into Bobby every chance he got, knowing our lad had picked up a knock.
Wouldn't be surprised if that dirty dog Vidic, exasperated what would have been an otherwise light knock.
Tomorrow, given that Bobby is out, has to be Bothroyd and Remy up top in my opinion.

[jmelanie]

Does anybody know if Bothroyd was injured and that is why he hasn't been playing.

[vblockranger]

dunno...personally thought he wasnt playing because he is sh1t but who knows.

[BUSHRANGER1982]

Does anybody know if Bothroyd was injured and that is why he hasn't been playing.

As vblock just said, could be that Jay is down the pecking order due to his inconsistant displays, and isn't out due to injuries, which I believe is the case.
There is a very good forward in Jay Bothroyd, and if we get the Jay that went off to a standing ovation at West Brom in the cup, at Southampton tomorrow, we have a chance.

[Rangers77]

ABM. Anyone but Mackie.....

[Bigdave]

Dont have much luck do we, get Big bob half fit and playable from his hip injury and he does his ankle.
