    This is what needs building on. We have the COC showing what is good about Hull and this now needs to be the support showing what is good about Hull City.

    There only needs to be one message and that is "We are Hull City". No need for anything else.

    E6 looked rammed yesterday, whereas other E blocks looked quite sparse. Odd.

    That's where they rehoused the north stand people, I think.

    Just picked this up on internet, there were more Derby fans (5300) traveled to WBA yesterday then the entire gate at the KC. (assuming the published gate at KC is inflated)

    Stats, Chazz, just stats.

    Were we in a City wide enthusiasm for CoC?

    Were we in the PL with a wafer thin squad?

    Did more folk have hope?

    You told us all the good things about these owners, would you care to remind us?

    This should be the best period in the Club's history: promotion, local owners, CoC, in a EPL semi for the first time, next round of the FA Cup - with a flimsy squad - and a management / coaching team that seriously challenges all expectation.

    So what went wrong; was it the supporters, you and I?

    It was the lowest ever attendance for an FA Cup game at the KCOM, the last time we had an attendance this low was a 1st round game against Kettering Town at BP.

    And what has it given us, OLM; seriously, what has it given us? This is a tragedy, not a victory.

    The tragedy, for me, is that it had to happen.

    The Tango is a wonderful dance, but it takes two ...

    ... if one is magnanimous, then the other might follow.

    Sorry, but while I admire your optimism I genuinely can't believe Ehab being magnanimous

    Certainly not to a bunch of hooligans

    Everything you hear of him suggests you're probably correct.

    I certainly think the Trust should react to Silva's post match call for their need of support.

    Ehab has publicly said he'll back the manager. Silva's first request appears to have been for a 12th man. We're here, ready & willing. Over to Ehab.

    He doesn't have to be, he simply has to follow a skillful lead; he'll look just as good and we let him. What's to lose?

    For the '12th man' to make a difference it might help if he was actually in the ground.

    I think its over to us. At home games the words Hull City should be seen and heard by the rest of the world. We don't need Ehab's permission to do that.

    We should also be looking at getting the Premier League to enforce their clear intention that clubs have concessions for children, the elderly and the disabled. If that means a change in the rules to give them teeth then so be it.

    From where I'm looking, TOM, the CoC and Hull City AFC are not immediately inseparable, in fact, far from it. It takes more than a soundbite.
