Hull City
Posted by Christopher Farman on 01/02/2009

Hull City manager Phil Brown is set to make 7 changes for the FA Cup 3rd Round home tie with Newcastle United. Brown will once again ring the changes after his side's 3rd straight league loss.

Boaz Myhill will be rested, therefore Tony Warner will make his debut in goal. Paul McShane will move to centre back to replace Kamil Zayatte, with Nathan Doyle filling in at right back. They'll be a new look midfield 4, with Stelios on the right, Geovanni on the left, and Dean Marney and George Boateng in the middle. Craig Fagan will return to the strating line-up following a four month lay off thanks to Newcastle's Danny Guthrie.

The Magpies are currently dealing with an injury crisis. Mark Viduka, Habib Beye, Joey Barton, Claudio Cacapa and Obafemi Martins are all out. Meanwhile, Jose Enrique, Nicky Butt, and Shola Ameobi are doubtful.

AUTHOR-NAME-HERE Welcome to my new blog. I've been watching Hull City for over ten years now, and have seen the club rise from a lower league laughing stock, locked out of their own ground, to Premier League upstarts turning over Arsenal at the Emirates. Hopefully you'll find my views on the Tigers interesting, so feel free to join the debate. Come on you Hull!
