It would be even better if Hooper gets a season ending injury and Forestieri crocks himself in training

Best two goalkeepers in the Championship on show tonight, both showed why so far. Still gutted we missed out on Westwood a couple of years ago.

It's a fishing trip, obviously, but I might as well ask.
What makes them better than Stockdale?
A fishing trip, or just complete nonsense. Best two keepers were on show at Cardiff last Saturday

Bet Stockdale is better at fishing
Still 0-0. Come on, biggest club in the world, give us a goal!
Fernando Forestieri hits the woodwork (High, Out of box, Right footed, Open play)

Well, that's balanced. I'm not making comparisons with our goalkeeper, but for me, these two tonight are the best in the league. Obviously Stockdale is one of the better ones, along with Marshall of Cardiff and Tom Heaton of Burnley. It's no coincidance that they're playing for teams at the top end of the league and I wouldn't be surprised if Middlesbrough and Derby were jealous of all of them - Konstantopolous and Carson/Grant aren't at the same level.
I think I would pick Marshall (Cardiff) and Westwood (Wednesday).
Who did they say has the best strike record in the Championship? (A few weeks ago it was Bobby Zamora).
Prediction: Hull will up their game in the second half and win by one or two goals.
If they can't up their game, they are not as good as I thought they were.
The other possibility is Hull lose the ball trying to play football and Wedneday get the run of the green and pinch a goal on the break. Less likely.
HT: 0-0

Probably not the best time to bring this up, but anyway, Peter Swan:
The betting scandal, which also involved two other Wednesday players, Tony Kay and David Layne, involved the three betting on Sheffield Wednesday to lose their away match at Ipswich Town F.C. on Saturday 1 December 1962. Ipswich won the match 2–0 with two goals from Ray Crawford. In an interview with The Times newspaper in July 2006, Swan said “We lost the game fair and square, but I still don’t know what I’d have done if we’d been winning. It would have been easy for me to give away a penalty or even score an own goal. Who knows?”. The betting ring was uncovered and publicised by a major article in The People newspaper. Swan was banned on Monday 13 April 1964 just as he was preparing to play against Tottenham that evening, his place in the team being taken by Vic Mobley. Swan received a four-month jail sentence in Lincoln jail and a life ban from football. It is believed that Swan might otherwise have been part of the England squad that won the 1966 World Cup; he was once told by England manager Alf Ramsey that he was "top of the list".

Been a decent first half. Think Wednesday have looked more dangerous but then Hull seem to have a knack of absorbing pressure and winning games.

Hull look tired and it can only get worse in the coming weeks. For a club still receiving parachute payments their squad doesn't look that strong.

Hull going a point farther ahead of us with a superior GD?
