Match Day Thread Hull City v Luton

Just gone to hulldailymail.co.uk and there was 1 Super League, 1 Hull City v Luton and 1 RL World Cup. No pop ups or delays obvs, as I don't allow them.

I recall reading somewhere that it tailors your views to what your browsing history on the site is.

I don't have a browsing history on that site so I guess that is the vanilla experience.

 

I don’t browse RL. Just put up the main page. And there are far more RL stores than that.

 

Not for me there weren't, hence me posting it. You're an egg-chasing fan. Go on, admit it

 

Always been a larger more affluent city though so evidently ended up carrying both, and I also think success has a lot to do with it. I remember being asked as a youngster why I went to watch 2nd or 3rd rate football when I could watch top tier rugby league - they didn't seem to understand the equasion of being a big fish in a tiny pond and it being ****.

 

They still don't.

 

Tbh it feels like since the funeral and international break we’re back to lockdown days

 

You'd prefer that we had use of a smaller stadium just because you hate Rugby League so much ?

 

That was straight from my daughter’s mouth, besides I can’t spell Marbella

 

You'll be sorry when Vern knocks on the door!

 

In an attempt to bring the MDT back onto the purpose it was intended.

Shota Arveladze admits he's been impressed with what he's seen from youngster Jim Simms in the early weeks of the season, and hasn't ruled out involving him on the first team scene in the near future.

Simms has blazed a goal trail for the Tigers Under-21 development side this season, netting seven goals in as many games including a hat-trick in the 5-0 win over Watford.

That eye for a goal and the impressive way he's settled into life at City following his summer move from Oldham Athletic has seen him train with Arveladze's first team at Cottingham, and hold his own.

City are struggling for forward options after losing Benjamin Tetteh to a hamstring injury for four months, and with Mallik Wilks sold to Sheffield Wednesday late in the transfer window, Arveladze has been left with just Oscar Estupinan and Tyler Smith as out-and-out attackers.

The 18-year-old was not involved on Tuesday night when City's youngsters drew 1-1 with league leaders Sheffield United at York City's LNER Stadium, and Arveladze was coy over the possibility of Simms being part of the matchday squad against Luton Town at the MKM Stadium on Friday evening.


"Jimmy is the next player that we will like to have and he's a striker," the City head coach told Hull Live. "We're struggling with options and you want him to participate, to give him a good feeling, to see him and how good he is.

"It's about when is the right time? This is a process that probably every coach goes through. He can only win here when he comes to the first team.

"I cannot say much, not because I don't want to give anything away - we will come to the game and see what options we have. We'll see how Oscar is and how the other ones feel and make a decision.

"It's not about the first day or day two, it's about giving him a feeling that there's a good connection between the first team and the Under-23 team when they come and train with us. We use the younger players when we do 10 against 10 games like we did yesterday (Tuesday), some of them will go back and some of them will stay with us.

"It's not new. It's going to be tough and they have to understand that it's not like playing with the Under-19s, and 21s anymore. It's about points, the games and the level which is something they have to continue to realise, but he's looked good in training.

Prepare your anuses, we've a rogering coming our way

Hull City 0-3 Luton Town

 

Back to winning ways...1-0

UTT.

 

You have no interest in the main page, the one you are always copying and pasting articles on Hull city centre from?

 

Don’t remember FC fans, led by Karl Hutchinson, Leeds United supporting editor of their fanzine, calling for a 15,000 stadium with terracing (something which would have stopped City progressing up the leagues) as that was big enough for rugby league and Hull City would never fill a bigger stadium?

 

Just save the City page as a favourite. Cuts out all the rest.

 

Any thoughts as why you get a different page! Does your front page of the Guardian differ to everyone else’s?

 

Not the point. It is the impression it gives to anyone reading it that this is a rugby obsessed city. We have a game tonight and the first mention of sport on the front page is of FC’s injury problems last season. Would th local paper in Leeds, Bradford or Huddersfield have a story like that about their rugby team when the football club had a game that night?
