I am, just couldn't find that particular match, looking in the wrong place. Found today's though but it was stalling a bit so I went down the £10 route...
Works brilliantly for Sky and BT though.
Today's stream on NWIP was utter garbage! To be fair tho, first one I can remember being like that, so rough and smooth
 
I'm presuming you're staying away because of the Allams ?

It's a difficult one as I'd been going to Elland Road since I was a boy but when Ken Bates put us into administration and shafted all the local businesses, St John's Ambulance etc etc, enough was enough. I'd put up wiith him selling every decent player we had and never re-investing in the side, borrowing against future season ticket sales to fund stadium improvements, even bringing in Chelsea scumbags to manage us but there comes a point when you just can't justify continuing to support the regime. It meant missing out on our L1 promotion campaign, which to some fans was one of the best seasons ever but I had to stick to my beliefs despite living only 10 minutes from the stadium.

Pretty sure my staying away had zero effect...but it made me feel better and I'm glad I stuck to it.

As soon as Bates left I got my ST back but we then had another disastrous period of ownership under GFH from Bahrain and it turned the f**ker had shafted us again. They are still kicking about in the background with a debenture against the club and will most likely get another big pay day at some point.

Sorry for rambling on but you're maybe more of a fan for staying away and it's ridiculous that others doubt your commitment to the club when doing so.

Hope it all works out sooner, rather than later <ok>
My opinion is....for what its worth is you stick by your team whatever the circumstances,owners,players,managers come and go.,....some we like,some we hate,but its in our blood to support hull city ,so for me those who stay away are not genuine..!would they have stayed away if we were still in the premier league?.....probably not,,...so do me a favour "fans" and stay away....

It's very hard, in fact almost impossible to disagree with your sentiments.

There's no way you can come second best in this debate because your 100% loyal and therefore not open to criticism. You've commited yourself to stick with the club come what may and hold the higher moral ground.

But I ask you, can you not at least understand why others have chosen a diffferent way ?

Are they so unworthy that they deserve to be asked to "stay away" and does that mean forever in your eyes ?

Believe me, honestly I get it...I have a certain loathing for fair weather fans as you do, but sometimes when the circumstances are both dire and the consequences far reaching, some people have to rage against the dying of the light. Metaphorically that may seem absurd but surely the slow death of a football club is as painful as any death.

Tbf you can't argue with any of that .. we played well for large parts .. looked good going forward but defended like schoolkids .. shame about Kane who was finally looking the part but good news about Elder being back for Bristol

I saw the first half and unfortunately, we had an electrical storm and the internet went to pot. From what I saw going forward we look a threat, Toral and Honeyman was the pick of the bunch for me. Wilk's, however, is turning into a good buy, he seems to be turning out better than I thought.

Someone has to sort the defence out, particularly of set pieces. They seem to ball watch and wait for the ball to reach them rather than they go to the ball.

Having said that, from the first half and what I have read about the 2nd, we gave it a good go and could have had a goal or two more. If we can tighten up at the back, and play like that going forward we have a chance of getting the 2 wins I think will be enough to keep us up.

Are we doing COTM this month?

Asking for a friend.
 
It's all about opinions isn't it .

No fans are actually going to games anyway at the moment , I'm still trying to decide if I actually miss it that much
