    Hello Percival
    Can you tell us all how you feel after today’s result?
    Are you:
    A. Absolutely proud of the team and the great performance to beat one of this season’s favourites on their own ground?
    B. Full of respect for Nigel Pearson and the management team for their tactics and team selection that paved the way for this victory?
    C. Over the moon at the clean sheet against this morning’s leaders who scored 3 in their first game?
    D. Feeling a bit guilty about all of the negative comments you’ve made about NP?
    E. Just overjoyed with a fixed smile on your face.
    F. Pi**ed off?

    A win at Portman Road is no mean feat, we just need to back up our hard work on the road at home which sometimes takes the shine off these away results. How anyone would not be delighted with an away at like you say one of the favourites to go up then you're very hard to please. Ok, we didn't play like Barcelona but we applied ourselves in the right way to grind out an away win in this division. I wouldn't expect him to be ditching all his anti-pearsons/barmby thoughts after one win but if he's not happy with a result and performance like todays then god help us!

    you forgot to give an option of throwing toys out of pram and still having a go at the pearsons because his idol/boyfriend wasn't allowed to play. and if if he had been allowed to play hull would have scored ten. and sack pearson anyway

    Fantastic result today, we could have be looking at six points already if we hadn't been very unlucky last week. Happy to make my 2000th post on a Matty Fryatt goal!

    Comment by Percy below:smiley-finger007: on another thread (I think he's a bit shy to answer my questions):
    "Expected to lose and lose badly today. Pleased we got the win, we now need to follow it up at Leeds and more importantly at home.
    I think this means A, B, C, D and E.

    Will people just **** off with the Percy battering. Some people (myself not included) believe that he's pathetic, boring etc, but let's be honest, so is the fact that every comment he makes is turned into a bad one.

    How can you possibly translate "Expected to lose and lose badly today. Pleased we got the win, we now need to follow it up at Leeds and more importantly at home." into those five options? Take 'F' for example. Yes, his comment clearly shows he's pissed off -_-

    I could have not have worded the comment Percy made any better myself, and, if posted by anyone else, you would have agreed with it and left it at that.

    If you read the original questions F. was Pi**ed off which I didn't include in my analysis of his comment.
    Basically I would just like him to tell us how happy he is at such a brilliant result and give credit where it is due. Why should that be a problem.

    City confuse me! When you expect them to win they don't..when you expect them to lose they win...Sounds as if the boys were a cut above the tractors

    Or G: The issue is with NP's tactics being too negative. This is always going to be more of an issue at home, where teams will come and sit back and wait for our one idea to fail before taking a point or 3 home with them than it is away from home, where the opposition are the ones under pressure to make things happen. The start of this season is no different to the end of last season where we were good away from home but terrible at the KC.

    At least based on my understanding of Percy's problems with NP that's the answer I'd give if I agreed with him and had been the one asked the question.
