Started by The Gaffer · 9 months ago

  • Absolutely, story of the season for sure and I am an Arsenal fan. Good luck to them - they kept Spurs bottom and all those Spurs fans who enjoyed our defeat last week have been put in their place. Hull dont play well particularly but Geovanni can create magic , he doesnt really do tap in goals! They defend doggedly and break quickly, King is very quick. I hope Hull do more than just stay up - their position is well deserved right now.
  • Story of the season to date. Hope they keep it up.
  • Thank you gentlemen for your kind comments above. We at Hull City have had a rollercoaster of a ride in the last few weeks, gaining 3rd spot in the Premier League.
    We give 101% and make up for any weaknesses with dogged determination, do or die tenacity, and above all play, players who Want to play for Hull City.
    You have seen it on the field and the explosion of feelings on the pitch when we score.
    Thank you gents for your informed comments.
    Kind Regards
    Hull City Supporter
  • I don't think they'll be able to keep up their pace. They have a -1 goal differential, which is more an indication of a middle of the table team rather than a top 4.
  • Too right, Hull City were, a year ago, just another Championship team now they are playing some fantastic footie against the top flight!....In Hull itself people are experiencing the smiling "feel good" factor as Hull sail at the top (for now), I am sure we will experience some defeats but Hull have the right attitude to at least stay uo....and maybe, just maybe flourish!?
  • You just have to look at hull's defensive record away from home. Only conceeded 3 goals in 4 games away. And thats against the likes of Arsenal, Blackburn...

    The only blip so far and the reason our goal differerence is -1, is due to the 5 - 0 defeat to wigan, a game in which the team that played was the same team that won the the play-off final except for one.
