So, how do you fancy your odds for this game?
Truth told, I think it's going to be a poor affair on both parts. We've been playing well at home, but our away form is generally bad, and we've got our first-choice centre-back out and what looks like four of our main midfielders (certainly three of them would be in my first team). Also, our left-back's a bit wobbly at the moment, looking good one game and having a 'mare the next.
Our strikers are looking good (Vine's on fire), but naturally they need the service. I fear a 1-1 bore draw may well be on the cards, but looking at the relative positions, you'd probably be happier with that than us, especially after we beat Birmingham this weekend.
That said, one the few occasions I predict misery for Luton, they generally go and have a stormer, so here's hoping I'm wrong.
Any thoughts, Hull peoples?

Hmm, no Hull peoples, Neko Looks like Luton may be struggling here. No Emmanuel or Brko, Robinson and Edwards doubtful. Maybe settle for a point?

I know at least Alex is a Hull boy, so I was hoping for some input from him At any rate, yes, it does look like a draw is on the cards. I'm quietly hoping for them to pull a win out of the bag though - I'm not even gonna be in the country on Saturday, so I need something to cheer about before then!

Will be happy with a messy one nil win to be honest, lots of injuries or sickness absentees, but hope we dig in and get the 3 points

A messy 1-0 win would delight me! 3pts are 3pts, whether it's a masterclass or a scrap! Assuming all four of those midfielders are out, though, who would our midfield consist of? Morgan, certainly, and I guess Perrett and Bell... not too bright a thought, is it? Maybe Feeney on the wing?

Hull 0 - 4 Lu'un.
And i'm being optimistic.

Well that was a disappointing game in general.
Poor following from Lu'un, even though it was a mid-week game, still a terrible following.
There would have been more atmosphere at a funeral than the KC this evening.
Referee had it in for City, every decision went Lu'un's way.
City had a goal disallowed right at the end for no apparent reason. Would love to know the reason.
Overall, a pretty even match in truth. Both teams had chances to steal the game, and both played some good football at times.
On balance, a draw would have been a fair result, however the goal disallowed soured it.

Hi Alex. Strange about the Luton following, it's usually pretty good, although midweek it's a long journey to Hull (and back!). I haven't seen the Luton team yet, but all the pre-match talk suggested that our first choice midfield four would all be missing. So, in those circumstances, a draw will do (for us). The BBC site says your 'goal' was disallowed for a foul, obviously I can't say, but I can understand that you feel it soured your overall feelings about the game. Best of luck for the rest of the season (except March 13th, of course )

Thank you very much Derek The 'goal' was one of those where it is launched to the back post, headed back, then knocked in. The only thing i can think is that Francey at the back post perhaps used the defender as leverage to head it back but i honestly couldn't see much in it! You generally looked a good team, and with presumably a better 4 players in the middle, you're certainly a team that should be pushing for play-offs. Good luck to yourselves as well

Hull 0-0 Luton I wouldn't watch, no offence but two uninteresting teams to me
