From a Hull Fan

[gonad]

We should have won this game. Your front two where terrible, so glad we got rid of Pieking, when he left i thought he would be one to come back and haunt us, but now, we robbed you out of 250k. Think he'll be at somewhere like Morcombe in a couple of years (Shame because he has undoubted ability).
Feels like two points dropped for me, i was fearing this game and thought we might get tonked. But the posession we had was quite unbelievable at times. If Campbell was fit your centre backs would have shit thereselves. Don't think either of us will go up but theres nowt between us.
Read further down about your midfield having played all 4 games and looked tired. Well so have ours and you had an extra day to prepare for this one. Also someone said we are a poor team, With the exception of Fuller i wouldn't take a single player from your team over ours.
Good luck Stokies.

P.S. That was never a pen.

[smigchop]

unfortunatley true. you were much the better side but for some reason didn't go for the kill when it was kindo on a plate for you. we were wank today.

I thought that we made Dull look good today....

[potters 22]

And if fuller had played you defence would still be wrapped in knots.
Easy to say IF that or IF this,was parkins 1st start of season and prob only start.
We need 2 or 3 new faces to freshen things up then we have graet chance of play-offs.

[serpico]

You can't come to any conclusions after watching us once, but i agree our front pairing today was woeful, to be fair to Parkin he's hardly played all season, he's had the odd game here and there and made one or two short sub appearances but ever had a real run in the side, which is disappointing because he did show some promise last season, mama never scores many goals as he is usually played as a 5th midfielder/striker, performance wise we're a bit hit and miss but we keep getting results.

[fingers]

The difference today {besides fuller} was the way we started and it seem to set the tempo for the whole match for us.Hull came flying out of the traps and seemed alot more up for it.

[bayernoatcake]

Never a pen but Fuller would have murdered Your centre backs. They let the ball bounce too dangerously luckily for You Parkin and Pericard were on the end of them! As it happens the only player of Yours I'd have is Folan.

PS Phil Brown is a cunt!

[Jamo on the wing]

Totally agree smigchop, we were so poor up front that their centre halves had their pipe and slippers out and as a result the ball kept coming back and putting us under pressure. Hull weren't very good at all, we were very poor today and a good side would have beaten us.
Hull aren't that good though that's why they settled for a point when a win was there for the taking.

[stokiesteve1966]

IN TRUTH WE LOOKED FUCKED, THEY LOOKED TOTALLY KNACKERED.

[AlanHansen]

I agree with the Phil Brown comment.

Utter shit. We had an off day today, teams do have them, but we are 4th in this league for a reason, the reason being we have a good set of players, with the odd exception ( Pericard, Parkin too name a few ).

Fuller is a massive part of our team, but don't all teams play and build a team round their best player ?

You forgot to mention that we are a team full of ugly giants who bully teams too, because the last team said that who didn't win, so we will too use this excuse because we couldn't beat big bad Stoke..........only kidding yourselves

[gonad]

I thought the best player on the pitch today was Bryan Hughes, gave your full back a torrid time.

[Jamo on the wing]

I'd have given Wright a torrid time, Hughes didn't have to do much did he?

[gonad]

But Hughes is a right footed Centre midfielder playing out of position!! We do need to side a good left sided player as Pederson will never be fit.

[fingers]

Brown is a very arrogant man and sat behind him today in the john smiths proved what i have thought about him for along time SMUG BASTARD.

[markscfc72]

he was forever on the pitch, where was the 4th official!

[gonad]

Listen, i have no problems with your style of play. If it gets results then fair play. What have you got against Brown Phil? Arn't all oposition managers wankers?

[stokecityscott]

Wouldnt have a player from our team?


OK the only player i would have from yours is, Folan other that that you had nothing.

Shawcross, Cort, Lawrence would walk in to your team.

[leicspotter]

I thought Windass was the fourth official!?

[bayernoatcake]

No not all-just the arrogant, mouthy cunts that think they own the place and keep chirping at the ref. All in all he's an orange cunt. And since when do Hull play in Wolves shirts?

He his old enough to be the 4th officials dad

;D

[bayernoatcake]

Windass made me laugh when he was pulling faces at Delap for one of the long throws.

[Olgrligm]

I thought Brown was quite good fun really, nice bit of banter.

[s8to]

Thought Brown was a bit of sport TBH

Have to say once Hull scored there wasnt enough time to waste, they were ecstatic with the draw..

We didnt help ourselves just lumping it forward with 2 of the the most immobile forwards you will ever see in a red an white shirt.. As for Wright he was very poor (send him back TP..!!)

Never thought I'd agree with TP but we did have the lonnngggg trip to plymouth, drugs test after the game and looonnnnnggg trip back to contend with against your 2 home games.

Hull really deserved the 3 points today even though we had the best goal scoring efforts (porkin's shot saved, lawrences shot saved) - we looked tired and not up for it

P.s. Why were your players playing it into the corner on 80 minutes? With a bit more attack minded play you would have easily beaten us

[blackpoolred]

Yes along with the Barnsley game that was our worst home performance of the season. Hull played some lovely stuff and we were lucky to get away with a point.
I have to say though that while your last 2 games have been at home over the xmas period, ours have been in north yorkshire and the south coast - fixture list was hardly fair to Stoke, we probably had to travel more than any team in all 4 divisions. The lads had absolutely nothing to give today, other than nerve & sinew - that proved just enough to get us a point.

Good luck to Hull for the rest of the sesason

[Deleted]

Quite funny this thread -a Hull fan tries to have a go - and we all agree with him.

I suppose it shows how far we've come i.e. we expect to beat the likes of Hull City. Stoke looked tired and jaded and limited yesterday, hull city exposed that even so, with Fuller -playing poorly stoke would still have won

end of, I suppose.

"Jon Pieking"

;D

[goodjobson]

You saw us play as poorly as we have since the first half of the Barnsley home game. Teams do play bad once in a while, the main thing is you pick up points when you are on a bad run.

If we had played the way we did against WBA yesterday, i.e., to our full potential, you would have seen a different game.

[Stick It On Cort's Head]

i would have hughes and livermore, perhaps elliot aswell as squad player

folan is just a donkey, simo shouldve come for the cross
