    Thought Darren Bent was not eligible for this match as he was cup-tied? And also heard a whisper earlier on that Gary Gardener was going to make the bench tonight?

    After all the hype from GH about ‘lowest ebb’ ‘putting things right’ and then he names this side !!! beggars belief – not amused and certainly confused by this thinking
