The nagging doubt about this one is in that we've only played one away game this season and lost it - we weren't beaten, we lost it through our own lack of composure and inability to stick to a game plan.
One rather refreshing thing about the team this season is an ability to look at what's going wrong and correct it - look at the second half performances; the way we bounced back on Sunday after our first defeat; the way we got it back together late on after falling apart for fifteen minutes when Orr went off on Sunday; the discovery of a killer instinct. These are all encouraging signs of improvement and an indication that the coach and senior players are able to address (quickly) the things that are going wrong.
Even if Hull turn up, I think we can beat them because we're defending well and playing with confidence. If they don't turn up, it plays right into our hands. We simply need to pick up where we left off on Sunday, turn the screw, get on top of the game and play for 80 minutes. I don't see why that shouldn't be the case, nor am I reading anything into the pre-season game at our place. In summary I'm confident of a win, but not expecting an easy ride.
