    He was hardly prolific himself. Averaging 2 goals a season (Rose record per game is pretty much the same) and the fact Blackburn are in that list with us doesn't really back up he is particularly a force in the air.

    Set Pieces

    Shooting from a corner gets a big thumbs up from the crowd, short corners get a massively negative reaction, yet the likelihood of scoring from a short corner would absolutely dwarf that of a direct shot. Most fans just like to see spectacular and have zero logic. Same as when someone is like 35...

    The Social Power of football fans

    I have filled in. As a bit of feedback I must say I found question 16 difficult as there are only two available slots and you have to choose between Racism, Sexism and homophobia.

    Mitrovic

    Whilst I think Fernandes was out of line and lucky to escape punishment, they are not the same incident. Also, just because they get something wrong once, it doesn't mean they should continue to get it wrong based on consistency, it's a daft suggestion.

    South Stand home end?

    I am probably missing something and I am not exactly a hooligan so can't say I go looking for it, but I've been to 100ish grounds and the CBS is the only one I know of (it could be bias because it's the one I hear the most about) that has fans/safety groups so obsessed with the location of the...

    Never thought I’d say this…

    Hamer was way below his usual standards. Eccles does a lot of busy off the ball work, but I really think he's a significant drop off with the ball. The difference between first and second half was stark in how well we managed to move the ball from defense to midfield. Sheaf is essential to that...

    Too tired to give the players any ratings. People who organise roadworks, closures and diversions - 1/10 Think that might be the last time I put myself through the turmoil of an M6 midweek away day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    23/24 Season Tickets

    I guess it's the nature of society and everyone being a different situation, but I find it hard to stomach that my old man pays much, much less than me (a Dad to a kid in full time nursery care) despite the fact his wealth absolutely dwarfs mine. I am equally aware there are some pensioners who...

    Sky Blues Tavern and the Anecdote

    I waited 25 minutes for a beer at about 1.45ish yesterday. Not sure how bad it used to be, but was pretty tragic yesterday Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hull Ratings

    Clearly it was just me as pretty much everyone disagrees. Can only say how I feel. It’s not like I don’t rate him, I just thought yesterday his passing wasn’t sharp which upset our rhythm and on 2+ occasions he dived into make a tackle in the attacking third when he really didn’t need to which...

    Hull Ratings

    Weirdly was nowhere near as convinced by Eccles as many (if not all) on here. Work rate was great but passing was poor and his best contribution was making up for a terrible mistake. Overly commits too much. Hamer was unreal first half, not as good second half. Was a pretty good performance all...

    Hope it hasn’t been covered already, but do any of the American based posters on here know whether the game is likely to be shown? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Every week a certain member of this forum takes every possible opportunity to make out Palmer was somehow shit because he’s got himself too deep in one of his usual “hot takes.” Looking forward to hearing todays Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Timewasting

    Largely because someone will get sent off for something silly and there will be media outrage about how we're ruining the game and getting people sent off for no reason. We are our own worst enemy. We are not consistent. You will hear the same people say 'They just need to let the game flow'...

    Unpopular Opinions

    There are too many penalties given in games. The media have managed to convince the public that every minor infringement in the penalty box is a penalty through over analysis/critique. Everyone constantly calls for a ridiculously unjust punishment for the majority of incidents. If we're going to...

    Yep and the awful fumble in the first few minutes which should have resulted in us conceding. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Someone’s given Wilson a 7 which truly bewilders me. Can only assume they didn’t go. Was all over the place tonight. Not on his own mind. Hard to single out anyone for praise, perhaps Hamer & sheaf. We were really poor against a better side who didn’t have to get out of second gear Sent from...
