“March 10th ? 1971 Sheffield United 1 Hull City 2. The Battle of Bramall Lane. Sheff U first home defeat of the season, record crowd, three sided ground. I was there.”

“They reckon we kicked em off the park that night, bless em.”

They certainly did that - Ken Knighton should have been put in a cage in Whipsnade Zoo after that disgraceful show........

I remember Blades beating this lot 6-0; a repeat of that would be nice.
 
Hull are literally the footballing equivalent of a chav winning the Euromillions.

They've dined out off that 2008 play-off win for nearly ten years. I don't want to be rude to their fans as the owner is an absolute shithouse, but they are a nothing club that lucked into becoming a Premier League yoyo team.
 
Be good to sing "You're getting Mauled by the Alems" with strange arm movements at them tomorrow in response to that embarrassing video, but then again I'd rather just watch Wilders team hammer this tinpot club and move on to another victory and not make myself look like a nob. (see video)



Where has this sense of grandeur come from? They've had a pretty successful decade bank rolled by a guy who has had enough. They are going to slide back into the 3 and 4th tiers of English football, like a Bradford, Wigan and other rugby league towns have done before when the owners realise its not sustainable.
 
I'll leave it to Hull's most famous adopted 'son'...

What a hole, what witless, crapulous people.”

Cheers Roy.

Strange, last time I drove past the sign it said "Welcome to Withernsea"
 



Which do you feel most appropriate?

Definately your version. I love the Seaside, always have. And I try to find positive points to even the worst places. Now that the Pac Man machine has died, other than the Micro Pub (called The Boathouse I think) it is terrible, unless you like Charity Shops, run down markets and Table Top sales.
 
'Dodgy OB,' cant work this one out? could someone enlighten me please? ???? Old Bollox? Out back?
 
They are very angry people aren't they. Not gone along with the love in that we have had with previous teams. And they think we consider them rivals??!!

You live in Hull FFS, how can you make any comments on any city in the world except Chernobyl and parts of war torn Syria

Especially a city which contains the Bransholme Estate. An estate which makes Parson Cross look like the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

It's Philip Larkin's take on Hull...
Now that you mention it, I do love charity shop's, run down markets and table top sales, the smell of fish also..
Hull is still a hole though. :D

I buy a lot of books from Charity Shops to be fair. The market in Withernsea used to be ok. But we had a walk round the other week, half the decent stalls had gone. All that seemed to be left was the worst kind of tat, and a shop that sold mobile phone covers

Your better off just driving thorough and cracking on until you get to Hornsea, much nicer.
