Hull City thread

I must say it was a fantastic feeling going up to a friend this morning who has been telling me all week spurs were going to win 6-0 and saying "you're so s*** its unbelievable" revenge is sweet.

What a goal once more from the Brazilian maestro

Cracking free kick and an awesome result Hull City Tigers....

For you to beat both of my London rivals is all the sweeter from Stamford Bridge.....

Cheers

When you beat teams they get less points therefore when we (Hull) beat them they're teams that get less points. This stat means nothing substantial.

Oh yeah, and we can only beat the team we play. Arsenal are in that mix as are Spurs and Newcastle. Two good teams that we met at a good time eg when they're crap.Toffeeman2008-10-06 20:42:22

1-0 and in 3rd! enough said.

Just like my Hull city team on football manager, have made a great start to the premier league including a two nil win over Liverpool. They just need to sign this Dagoberto guy from some Brazillian club and Steve Thompson of Burnley. Oh and Dom Matteo!

 

Surely at the midpoint, when everyone has played everyone once then everyone will be level in this table. Or is it not that simple?

Only in Italy, Spain and Germany (possibly others, but I don't cover other countries). England doesn't follow a regimented fixture schedule where everyone plays each other once by the mid-point of the season, so the "level point" only arrives at the end of the season. (As an interesting digression: Italy, Spain and Germany actually go so far as to have the second round of fixtures be played in the exact same order as the first round.)

The conclusion I have made is that we have been extremely lucky so far. Arsenal did everything but win whereas the Spurs match was 'kicking in' for them in the second half but they couldn't score. We are in a 'false' position and we should enjoy it whilst we can. I have predicted our opposition to win, and actually marked them as a 'banker', in all the prediction leagues I am in - I have been WRONG 6 times out of seven! We can, however, draw from these results in that we can probably now attract the sort of 'quality' players we need. We still lack pace up front and Wigan showed up our vulnerability. Could anyone have possibly expected such a glorious start to our Premier League life? I doubt it. I for one am relishing our success and loving every second of it.

As I mentioned on a previous post, I sent my ex-boss a 'sympathy' card with the words SPURS 0 HULL CITY 1 emblazoned on the inside. He had spent years rubbishing my support of a 'nonentity' team like Hull City.

Good stuff OZ Tiger and I dont think Hull are finished turning over a few more Premiership teams. The club has gotten off to a solid start and built up much needed points whilst others have struggling.

looks like we might sign our loaned defender Zayatte in the Jan window

Tribal Football is a joke, be careful what you believe off that site...

Im still waiting for the Under 23 Nigieran Manager who was replacing Megson on April 24th to show up...

We didn't have any until our second season... that ended well.

If we hadn't found a new owner last year we could easily have been either of them.

Some article about Hull City on BBC

CMON U 'ULL   !!!

A win tonight and I'll still be sleeping all day tomorrow

a tough night for you Harry H

Great stuff Hull, it just keeps going!

another one bites the dust. and that congolese striker does look good! that volley from outside the box was awesome. what are the chances of getting him?

What's Hull's upcoming fixture list like? Still have Chelsea, Man U and Liverpool to play twice. Eventually the fairytale start will end but for now it must be brilliant for you long suffering Tigers fans.

Phil Brown learnt well under Big Sam 

Again, we were incredibly lucky but the Gods must still be with us. I thought the bubble had burst when Wigan hammered us but we seem to have gone from strength to strength - at the moment it is London NIL- Hull City FOUR! Cousin is without doubt a talented and formidable player and the entire side compliment each other by sheer teamwork and effort.

just watched a tape of the win v W Ham

just found this on a report of the game from a west ham site:

Still similing . Cant help it.

SiNZ's computer thingy has us down for a 1-1 draw at the Hawthorns (or whatever it's called these days)

cheers hull,

As a ManU fan, please don't abuse me, I have to say its great to see Hull do so well because it shows that the jump from the Championship to the Premiership is as big as some might suggest. Good on you boys!....but be cautious of '2nd-season-itis' and don't over spend on useless has beens. Though sayig that: Giovanni = great piece of business

one of my oldest friends is a manu fan, a kiwi who moved to England to follow the football

sterling result guys! your team is defying the odds again and again.
