Pre-Match View From Hull — The View From

"Love a night game against this lot." "This Friday against sheff Utd hopefully see a much better hull , hopefully Walter has got them gelled after a 2 week break" "Is it a good time to play Sheff Utd with their impending takeover as a distraction and a poor end to their transfer window? I

Morning Roygbiv cheers mate always a good read.

 

[FinBlade]

This one seems bit hostile

“66% of adults in Sheffield are heavier than they should be. 100% of adults in Sheffield are ****s.
City 3-0 Fat ****s.”

 

[Harry's Game]

“66% of adults in Sheffield are heavier than they should be. 100% of adults in Sheffield are ****s.
City 3-0 Fat ****s.”


This type of erudite comment is why Hull was proudly the European City of Culture the other year…

 

[Tickhill Blade]

“Other than the FA Cup game at ours when did we last beat this lot at home?. That said, tbf, we don’t play them that often.”

1-0 in 2018 wasn't that when Wilder had a rant at the players after the game?

 

[knowsnowt]

Fat bummers.

 

[Down the Channels]

Not far off, hopefully!
Cost about £50m ish I think.
What is theirs worth though? Won’t be peanuts , they have some decent players that could have good value.
Daft comment to make by them.

“I hope that Walter has ‘now how he wants them to play’ I still feel there is more to impart his ideas in such a short time (especially to a ‘Blunts’ squad) who are far from novices in this League!-and more have a rivalry than they think with E.Yorks!”

What is this rivalry they talk of ? Apart from the match in the early 70s when the ref called all 20 outfield players into the centre circle to give them a good talking to, I can’t recall why we should be rivals. To me they are an east coast irrelevance.

 

[Westran]

Have you thought about putting this behind a paywall? Or doing a Roys View from Anel's mum and dad?

 

[programmechap]

I saw something the other day that suggested our squad was the 86th most expensive in the world! Burnley and Boro also in the top 100.

 

[Cappy]

“Season starts at Stoke“

That’s the stuff dreams are made of

“66% of adults in Sheffield are heavier than they should be. 100% of adults in Sheffield are ****s”



Cheers Roy

Adkins was Hull boss at the time as well

It was a genuine rivalry from about 1979 to 1986, due to playing them a lot, Keith Edwards moving between the teams, and one very, very close promotion race.

They hated us more than the other way around.

That's our only league defeat away at Hull in just shy of 40 years. Previous one was 8th October 1983.

Our record against Humberside Jungle Cats in my lifetime (that 4-1 defeat was when I was 3 weeks old) is pretty exceptional: P24 W14 D7 L3. Since football began in 1992 it's even better: P14 W10 D2 L2.

It's similar with another semi local side, Bradford. We usually have little trouble against them.

Lots more draws with Bratfut. Same timeframes: since the start of 1983/84: P30 W15 D11 L4. Since 1992: P20 W11 D8 L1.

Cheers Roy.

The 'View from' is one of the few reliable signs that the world is still turning.

I did have a sneaky thought in anticipation of it dropping this morning, but couldn't work out how to oraganise the conspiracy.
How long would it take for Roy to start questioning if the world was still turning if nobody came along and claimed the 'first'? 30 minutes? 3 hours? Still no 'first' responder. Roy furiously hitting refresh wondering if the internet has been cancelled.

Unfortunately, I was at that 4-1 defeat!

 

[Blade for Sale]

I've got Bradford mates who still cling to the Johnstones Paint (or whatever it was called) match when they beat us on pens at BL in front of about 3500 fans in something like 2013.

Having been to Ull they're hardly Kate Moss there either!

 

[Stretch]

I am not sure why they hate us, but I can honestly say that I never liked them anyway.

A bunch of of gobby, obnoxious cunts.

Hope we stuff them.

 

[Caveblade]

Blunts - Yawn
Rivalry - not unless you live locally
Most expensive squad - uneducated
Crying on Wembley Way - No

Thanks Roy

when did this happen ? Takeover done have I just lost 6 months

“66% of adults in Sheffield are heavier than they should be."

The use of heavier is weird...

Not fat, not overweight, not obese, just heavier.

We are a city of bodybuilders is what I am taking from that.
