Hull City 0 Bloody Bolton 1

It’s taken this long to write up the report for this match, because it’s taken me so long to get used to the result.
On the one hand, I’m remembering my view at the start of the season that one bloody win in the whole bloody season would have been great.  Buuuuut, I’ve completely got swept up [...]

Manchester Utd 4 Hull City 3 – thoughts on the match

Well, well, well…
That was a title I didn’t expect to type.  At half time I was saying I’d be “happy” if it went to 5-1, because at least we’d scored at Old Trafford.
Watching it live through an online streaming thing makes you feel a bit dizzy and sick after a while and it’s hard to [...]

Hull City v West Ham Utd at the KC – 1.0 to City

I almost didnt’t dare to publish the London 0 Hull 4 prediction in my last post
Soooooo proud.  Can only think of incoherent, celebratory guff.
Rode our luck at times, but Michael Turner proved to be awesome once again.
Surely now people will stop dismissing us as relegation fodder.  Sure, it can all still go wrong, but you explain [...]

Arsenal v Hull City – we win :)

CAN’T STOP SAYING OH MY GOD
This feels better than winning the World Cup, the FA Cup, going to No 1, getting an Oscar etc etc.
Highlights:
Alan Shearer saying:  That was the goal of the season and let’s just talk about how well Hull City played – they were magnificent:  
Arsene Wenger’s post-match interview – he thinks it’s [...]

Just a draw – Everton v Hull City

Don’t let anyone tell you that it was crap to end up with “just a draw”.
Some perspective people:  Everton finished 5th last season.  That’s 5th.  They are also the only football team to have broken into the “top 4″ in recent years.
Also they have some more than decent players (everyone wishing Cahill is injured – just a [...]

Blackburn Rovers v Hull City match report

Listened to the match on the radio.
Can get match commentaries on Radio Humberside, but not on the digital version – bloody stupid! Gggggrrrrrrr…..
There was a lot of apprehension about today’s game – especially as George Boateng is out with an injury and Blackburn looked pretty darn good last season.
I always hated Paul Ince in his playing days at ManU (one of [...]

Should have started this a few weeks ago

So here’s a quick re-cap
1st game of the season:  Home v Fulham
Fab atmosphere.  Eardrums blown off when everyone cheered for Deano.
Jimmy Bullard surprisingly doesn’t look as old in “real life”.
Not having a season ticket we’re up in the North Stand – for this game not too high up and pretty close to the goal - great view.
1st experience [...]
