I think it's between us, Leicester and Hull. I think Barnsley have easily the better fixtures and seem to be able to grind out results. As for the world cup ... absolute bollocks to say their dead on their feet! This world cup has been a farce on so many levels, shit organisation, over priced tickets 1 game in 5 days and you call that dead on your feet ... absolute tosh. Someone said previously that you can't have a one day and a five day captain .. why? They are two totally different games. Vaughan is a very good test captain and, when he regains his form with Yorkshire (Which he has to be allowed to do) he can carry on with the Test captaincy. He was rushed back anyway. Graveney hasn't got a clue and I think after 5 years of excellent work Fletcher has lost the plot. Get Moody in. Now, I see Southamptons top striker is looking doubtful for Saturday ... If we can nick anything there it could be HUGE.
