For Watford fans it's 10 miles to Wembley, 29 mins by car. You could bike it in an hour. Home for Look North* (* or local equivalent)
I'm with you - Leeds are certainly a delusional set of twats but, rather them to get an automatic slot than the pig bastard Shoreham scum from Sheffield.
I thought that, and by heart still thinks that However my head says let Blunts go up because they’ll come straight back down whereas TWS might just invest enough to stay there. Lose Lose though Hopefully they’ll both be docked points for something and all their first team players will be banned for a few games too
Yep its like which man do you want your wife to run off with. For me Leeds to stay down as too many from the area support them and therefore are due more suffering.
The absolute perfect scenario, when coupled to WBA taking 2nd spot and us beating the Blades in the semi-final. I'd die a happy man.
Mathmatically we can't catch Norwich, Sheff U or Leeds, so I want them all to beat our play-off rivals and do us a favour or three.
Gotta love Tom's goal, sheer class Agree re: pigs and TWS but those Bristol fans I met at the play-off final were fine, even congratulated our group on the win - despite us being in their end!
We all have our reasons for why we don't care for a certain club. I absolutely despise TWS. For me it's all about having to defend myself to Leeds fans as a kid.There were so many of the ****ers. Who do you support? Hull City. Hull City? They're ****! Well yeah we're ****, but you asked me which team I supported. I don't remember one single Pigs fan. Manure fans, Liverbirds and I remember there was an Arsenal fan. There was no Sheffield fans though. If TWS go up, trust me, we'll never hear the end of it.
I had plenty of Leeds fans, Liverpool fans and Man U fans around me at school. I was one of the few City fans. I say few, me and one other kid. I didn't understand how you could support a team from a City you've never been to, but whatever. When we moved to the KC, there was suddenly a lot more onus on taking the piss out of me, but I just told them they didn't matter. I despise York, simply because their fans were utter ****s and seeing them in the same league as North Ferriby brought me nothing but joy. I always considered our biggest rivals to be Scunny, Grimsby and Lincoln, the latter of which really, really don't like us. Boston also have a bee in their bonnet about City for some reason unknown to me, nothing of note ever happened while I've been a City fan, anybody know why they hate us so much? I went to watch Ferriby play Boston and they still sing songs about us now.
Such as what? Down in the Hull slums... or We only 'ate Allam's Tigers. or ...asked my mother, what should I be? Should I Boston or should I be 'ull? or My old man, said be an 'ull City fan, I said ... Arf.
If that's all it is, that's pathetic. Ugh. ****house ground as well. Although, standing for away fans. Something to do with us being fish shagging bastards or something. I dunno. It was a few years ago and I've slept since then. But we aren't popular there, believe me.
Whereas I always considered it to a barometer of how **** we'd become that we ven had to play these mickey mouse resentful clubs from south of the river? Neighbours (stretching it a bit) maybe, 'rivals'?...gtf, never in a million years. I genuinely pity those who started watching City in the 90s and had these tinpot teams as their frame of reference.
Right. Cool story bro. Back on planet Earth, rivals are generally considered reciprocal. Leeds/Sheffield don't see us as rivals. Grimsby and Scunthorpe do. Also, Grimsby spent a decent chunk of my time supporting the club above us in the footballing pyramid. The term "Yorkshire Derby" doesn't suggest a rivalry, it just means two teams from the same area are playing each other. Hull City vs Bridlington is technically a Yorkshire derby, it doesn't mean it actually matters to either set of fans, it's just something the media say to drum up interest. Pitying younger fans. **** a pot noodle.
