Hull 1 United 0 - view from the sofa

Wilder needs to be careful. Only so many 30 minute lectures after games before players start tuning you out.

OK, if that doesn't work try this.

CW to lead the team out for the Burton game. After the hand-shaking bullshit, he gets them in a huddle and points out the crowd - around 24k. He then points out the ground. He then asks some of them when the fuck they will ever experience that again.

the FA need to stamp down on this now or people will start using it as a tactic.. protest or not.

Agree. It's not just the fans who have shelled out a fortune, what about Sky and their customers? If, say, at the Brit Awards it had been widely stated that some fans would walk on stage and ruin an act. Security would have been in place and their feet wouldn't have touched.

Too many long balls and cross field long balls, 9 times out of 10 we give the ball away then back on the defensive. We have been good all season with fast, close passing and moving, create space and overlapping, for some reason last night just resorted to kicking it long and high, so service for Billy and Leon was rubbish.
Again corners and free kicks are woeful, week in week out we hit the first man or the ball sales over the top of everyone, surely in training all week we can improve in this area.
Felt embarrassing to watch last night was so poor, after such an exciting and fantastic season so far. Hopefully just a poor night on what looked like a poor pitch.

Weekend ruined, some consolation in that the Dingles are further in the shit

Embarrassed, that's how I felt in the local last night, infact, after watching that, the worst performance I've witnessed yet!!!, I went home straight after the game.
Crap Mr Wilder, bollockings required!

Report sums it up well. From about 10 minutes in it had the look of a one nil defeat written all over it. Away on a freezing night on a bobbly pitch against opposition more up for it than us. No doubt Wilders comments are aimed at getting a reaction but may actually be the reality. We have surprised ourselves getting into this position but the next transfer window will be the real test. Do we up the quality level we bring in (not talking silly signings for ridiculous amounts like the pigs and some others) or do we settle for being a middling championship side.

Shambolic performance. Only Baldock and Blackman get above 5 for me. Fleck and the 3 CBs get a 4.

Tempted to give Leonard and Evans a minus score.
