It’s time for Monday Night Football to bedazzle our television screens once more as we look forward to Blackpool hosting West Brom. Not many people would have expected that sentiment even at the beginning of the season, but this has the making of a great game, and if the past is any indication we’ll be in for a hum dinger of a game as the two respective fixtures last season saw 10 goals in total.

Nil-nil is clearly on the cards then now that’s jinxed, and the team news let’s us know that Charlie Adam has recovered from his stitched up ankle to pass muster for Blackpool while Elliot Grandin comes in for Marlon Harewood. On the back of his two goal haul at Leicester (damn him), Simon Cox comes in with Pablo Ibanez for the injured duo of James Morrison and Jonas Olsson for the traveling West Brom. Peter Odemwingie is nowhere to be seen, still…

Blackpool XI: Gilks; Eardley, Evatt, Cathcart, Crainey; Vaughan, Adam, Grandin; Taylor-Fletcher, Varney, Campbell

West Brom XI: Carson; Jara, Tamas, Ibanez, Shorey; Scharner, Mulumbu; Brunt, Cox, Thomas; Fortuné

If you’re looking for some matchday banter then join our floodlight Dugout Discussion as West Brom look to break into the Champions League places (not a typo) and Blackpool look for their first home victory of the season.

    Hope yet in my H2H, I doubt it though. If Carsson gets himself sent off before 60 mins and concedes another one then I draw. If he concedes 3 more and gets sent off I win.... Come on Blackpool make it 4-0. Adam to miss the resultant penalty with some other bloke knocking in the rebound.... Ideal scenario, but now I have jinxed it.

        Malouda. As you would still have exposure to Chelsea's attacking points through Didier.

        No harm in a few budget defenders. Simpson, Elmo (poor fixtures), Coleman (possible rotation risk). Top up with Boateng, Alex, Baines. Maybe even Konchesky.

        Most people are languishing on less than 55 points and here you are with 91 points moaning.

        You chose Fabregas like all of us did because he was the logical choice. I have no regrets, and I'd have done the same everytime. If we could see the future, then we'd all have Nolan captained.

        Saying that you're pissed you captained him with your gameweek score is quite a dick move. Really.
