Excellent video but unfortunately the city does not have the infrastructure or to determination of the right people to steer us towards winning capital of culture.

Turned Liverpool around, hopefully could do similar for us, can only be good news if we won. Most people being very negative about their own home town as usual so cant see us winning.

I moved out of Hull around 9 years ago, and left with very little pride in the city...

However, I have to say that Hull seems to have been making a massive effort to improve itself lately and I definitely have a lot more pride in my home city these days.

Something like this is highlighting the positives of the city, and win or not, making people realise that there are things to be proud of in Hull.

Hull is a great city, coming from Cleethorpes that is saying something!

What a load of $ollocks. Liverpool was already light years ahead of the game before they won it.

The regeneration of the city was in full swing and they built on their strengths and heritage. Big names wanted to be part of it and continue to do so.

Take a trip to Liverpool and ask yourself if we can compete with what they have, the answer is no.

I am not kncking Hull, but as I pointed out, we do not have the people in charge who can take the city in the direction required and build upon our own history and heritage.

Look at the docks area - what a state. Grimsby got the fishing heritage.... they are a back water compared to Hull. There is no vision or desire to take this city forward and I cannot see that changing in the near to mid future.

From the minute the judges drove down Clive Sullivan way and saw the Lord line building they would have made their minds up.

We are a sattelite city and the major investment required will not be forthcoming.

So how did we make the final four, then?

Have you seen who we were up against... not a real coup if Hull did win it.

This is not exactly the same as Liverpool in 2008 who won European capital of culture, this is the UK culture secretary's idea of a prestigious award.

While it may generate a small rise in tourism, it will not benefit in the same way as a European award.

Your not knocking Hull?? Sounds like it to me mate!
I agree with you though we definitely do not have the people in charge with the vision to turn this city into something special. But it does not help when so many of the people who actual live here bring it down so much.

I seriously am not knocking Hull I am just being realistic.

Given the whole Scotland issue at the minute, Dundee are a shoe in for the award.
