    Numerous posters taking a widely misinterpreted comment from MR way too personally. Classic SBT.

    Has to give Taveres a go. Godden is anonymous and we need something more.

    Multiple subs coming on. He just made a good tackle but Eccles needs to come off now. Not a RWB.

    If this isn’t a one off, Doyle is an absolute footballer. Very composed and looks mature for his level of experience. Just completely dummied Evans as if he was going for the ball.

    On the ascendancy as is the atmosphere. 100% our game to win, especially considering the bench. Their 4 is added to the list of absolute twats too.

    Waghorn playing fine as an individual but he’s not a natural 10 at least not on his one. Positioning and movement not right, yet at least. Same with Eccles when attacking. Either too tucked in or too far forward. Positive is we have Palmer, Dabo, Hamer and Taveres (poss Walker) who can all...

    Ched Evans is a massive massive wanker. Hope McFadz crunches him before FT. Looks like he’s in his head which is good.

    Happened very fast but did Wilson even touch him? He did the right thing either way as that’s a definite goal otherwise.

    Absolutely not jumping on that bandwagon as he has ability. But Eccles is not a RWB in a team playing on the back foot. He also seems to only jog to every ball which is weird.

    Absolutely overran in midfield. So so much space. They aren’t even a footballing team and we’re making them look like Brazil.

    Feels like a nervousness both on and off the pitch so far.

    That foul on McFadz is one that’s so blatant with zero intent to get the ball yet still gets no booking. Elbow up too. At least the ref saw it. And I fully expect Fadz to crush their 9 in response.

    How are they still kicking off? Queue outside are mental

    I like Palmer and I still maintain he has ability and will be an asset. But not being able to start two games in a row is absolutely horrific. He’s literally a professional sportsman.

    Genuinely really looking forward to tonight. It’s been a long time since the pre match routine, excitement as we walk down the towpath and then the buzz around the ground. As others have said; I hope it’s that way tonight. We need to re-create the excellent atmosphere of last year and that...

    Club update

    Seven pages on and how many years down the line and we’re still having the same conversation and same old arguments. Interesting there’s some posters loving these threads, who are barely seen on the actual football related ones. If we want to try and take a positive from the statement, it’s...

    Dom Hyam - Blackburn bid ?

    It’s a shit one, but before we completely lose the plot let’s see where we stand on Thursday morning. If we’ve still got Gyokeres and COH, plus a Hyam replacement perhaps the relegation fodder narrative some are keen to push can be dropped. Anyway isn’t defence our weakest area, getting rid of...

    Recommend a beer

    Checked out the selection at Morrisons today in an attempt to find an “interesting” beer in the local area (no decent bottle shops nearby). And how my bank holidays have changes since having kids! Picked up a few semi interesting ones. Had a West Coast Pale by ShinDigger - a new brewery for me...

    Match Thread ⚽️ Hull City vs Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 27th Aug

    Talk of ‘relegation fodder’ and ‘relegation season ahead’ across this forum I assume (and hope) are reactionary comments fuelled by an emotive few days. We have lost two games due to individual errors, and unfortunately from a position where they often directly result in goals. We haven’t been...
