Dislike Allam and his plans but hope City do well and get promoted as its good for the city and puts Hull back on the map to a certain degree. Football is a global sport and it would be great for us to have Hull in the top tier of both Football and Rugby. There's a lot of conflict between us and them. Some people (from both sets of fans) act like a right set of idiots. Our sports bigger than your sport etc. Football might appeal more to a global audience and the city may have more of a football presence but most of it is irrelevant. As long as all Hull clubs (apart from rovers) do well, I couldn't care less! Come on you Hull!!

I think a lot of it comes not from Allam but from the arrogance of many City fans who seem to think they own the place and treat the rugby with disdain. Rightly or wrongly many Hull fans react to that by meeting like with like.

I'm sure Shannon will be getting the blame for the bald patches in front of the goals though



I'm not bothered if they get promoted or not but if they do i'd not be surprised to see a "For Sale" sign go up.

I commented just before kick off that the pitch looked in great condition. Coincidently there had not been a soccer match on it for two weeks.

After the game it looked like a billiard table with a fresh Baize

Allem wont sell it in the first year, he'll use the income to leverage borrowing elsewhere and then strip any assets he can get his hands on, he'll also want another crack at bullying the council into selling him the KC for peanuts.

Have you been living in a cave for the last few months?

Yeah I agree, I dont get it either.

I read a piece from Adam Pearson a bit ago talking about having a premier league team in the city with the increased revenue that brings. He particularly stated that having say 15 highly paid premier league players and their families in the city is like having 15 small businesses.

As a neutral and a Yorkshireman, the county as a whole needs representation in the top division and if that is Hull City then so be it! Up the Tigers.........

down the tigers

Fook the tigers , up the toffees

But shouldn't that be an anti Allum situation though.
City in the prem can only be great for the city of Hull.

The pitch as it looks today (tweeted by Mike White), doesn't show the goal mouth areas though.
