Like Homer Simpson being forced to eat donuts?

Also, good gaming taste you have, that game is a GOAT even if I cba to go back and finish it.

Haha I love that bit in the Simpsons. Couldn’t see the lads having the same appetite for gaming after my sleep deprivation torture.

I absolutely loved TotK. Same as you I seasoned it for ages, then life got in the way so didn’t play it for a few weeks and didn’t want to invest more time getting back into it!

Im not a massive gamer but I like my Switch when I finally get enough free time to use it. Fave games on it are Tears of the Kingdom, Into the Breach, Octopath Traveller 2, Civilisation (which I’m shite at).

personally I would just ignore him

Correct. Didn’t leave on controversial terms, also did very little in his time here. Not worth a boo or clap.

Even at 25K that will probably be the second highest attendance in the championship

Other managers had the same problem and used to go online and get their players off them on a Saturday night.

How did you stop them @eastwoodsdustman ? Hit them with sticks / stop their wages / make them play a game where they wear the consoles as football boots?

It's one of those games that you can play for tens of hours but once you stop you really cba to go back. I did the same with Witcher 3.
Good thing about Switch is you can just play in bed for an hour or so when you fancy it at night, which is about all you have time/energy for when your kid is as mental as mine.

If I had kids I definitely wouldn’t have the time for it. I always feel like I need a spare 3 hours minimum to play anything!

Witcher 3 I’ve got, but I put absolutely no effort into it, played it for an hour and put it down but I should probably persevere as I tend to like open world games.

You need to set aside a good wedge of time or you just won't get into it. Like all open world games imo.

I think I’d actually go same team. Does that sound mad? Is that mad?

Maybe give Simms a start and bring the Hound on against tired legs.

Wouldn’t be surprised to see EMC benched and a bit of rotation in midfield though.

If we lose today I will concede to the term “relegation battle”, which I’ve currently been ignoring on here.

We wernt actaully that poor against WBA and matched them for most of the game. Looking at how many chances we had in the game we actually should have got at least a point if not more but same old story we didnt take our chances and got sucker punched by two shots and two goals. wBA for all their possession were actually pretty poor

I thought we shaded possession in the game but might be wrong. I agree with you generally. I thought West Brom were better last season, but still pretty uninspiring. Now they are well managed and against us, effective without looking impressive. Thought their keeper looked a confident player.

West Brom have a fairly pragmatic approach. They seem happy surrendering the ball and getting behind it. I'd hate to watch that every week

Interesting observation from a Hull fan. Sums our season up


Saturday 12:30 kick off
More of the same from the players needed. More effort more running and definitely need to be more clinical.
I’ve just watched the highlights of cov v wba
And cov missed so many sitters it was ridiculous. Should have won the game easily.
Aren’t players practising finishing these days?

Forgot Hull is actually a really beautiful place. Real historic and cultural importance too thanks to the invention of “chip spice”, which changed the perceptions of a nation.

Cov isn't great but the lack of self awareness from someone who supports fucking Hull is staggering. Loads of those northern shithole towns and cities make Cov look like Monte Carlo.

I’m too much of a prude to know if that’s a real magazine or not, but that would certainly be a good name for Jack Rudoni’s new band.

Cov definitely is a shithole. However if you’re from Hull, you cannot say that because at least Coventry has some
interesting redeeming features. I have a list of towns and cities I would never live in on my phone. Hull is in the top two.
