A63 is closed in both directions near the Humber Bridge, police incident, reported on Twitter about 30 mins ago.
It was on the screen at the match an hour ago.
Shut between St Andrews Quay and North Ferriby.
Don't panic though. All is fine. I'm only walking distance away and was back home shortly at 10pm.
3 added minutes ??
What happened to the new directive , that didn't last long

First ten I thought we looked decent then rest of first half very poor, everything was done to slow, We then give a poor goal away and it’s a very frustrating first half. Second we went at them more, played the ball around the same but it was done at pace. Another ten minutes I think we would have won it, with the crowd suddenly behind them and we had the momentum. Good to fight back and we get a point but that’s only two points from last two home games which is a disappointing return. We need a result Wednesday now.
Morton looked good. Philogene is raw, needs to improve his decision making. Credit to Coventry they kept Delap and Connolly quite for a large chunk of the game.
How they didn't get at least one red I'll never know. Hopefully that half-way line bust up will see them get a suspension retrospectively.

Philogene and Morton are definite positives , not seen anything from Twine that makes me think he should be starting games
Hull City boss Liam Rose Noire Ball told BBC Radio Humberside:
"We showed character, we created so many chances and, on another day, we win that and score three or four. We have to take that outstanding second-half performance into Leeds on Wednesday.
"It was a really poor goal to concede; I don't like conceding goals from corners. In the lead-up, we didn't defend that phase well enough. One of our players loses his marker for a free header nine yards out. That has to be a blip for us."I said to the lads at half-time that there are going to be times during the season when we go a goal down or concede a poor goal. It happens - it's the Championship - but we didn't just run and fight. We played excellent football. I'm so proud of the players to be 1-0 down and play with bravery and fearlessness."
Coventry City boss Mark Bobins told BBC CWR:
"The manner of the goal we conceded was poor. The lateness is more disappointing. We defended the first phase really well, then stood in.
"We ran out of steam because we kept giving them the ball back, and they moved it better than us in the second half. We did really, really well in the first half.
"We looked threatening, there was some really good play and we kept the ball well. We played through them and they found it really tough."

Well, an hour later than usual. No second yellow then.
Thought if we were better we beat them on another day which says a lot because I thought they were very good defensively and on the break. Admittedly the ref (who I had worries about since he only did about 12 games in the last calendar year) allowed them to foul out the game at points by not bringing out the cards earlier. Subs made a real impact, Christie finally looking fit and Morton bringing some energy to that role normally pin-holed by Seri. Felt the front line was generally quiet for large parts but I do think Coventry played it very well.
The good thing for me is you can see the pieces of the puzzle are there and it's very close to finally clicking. For now though I think we are a team better suited playing away from home.

Philogene looked impressive, was a good battle between him and their right back. Looking forward to seeing more of him
Teams have soon cottoned on to how we play at home and just snuff us out.....Therefore, we'll draw more at home than win...Our away record will be better than our home record...
Just a couple of observations like.

Philogene was excellent, a Theo Whitmore clone, if only the manager had the same amount of nerve to push his team to attack, rather than **** about playing backwards all night, we have the makings of a very good team and Rosenior is so **** scared of losing, like Bruce, that he doesn’t know how to set the team up to attack.
Ive said before, I could easily walk away from the club if this is how we set up every home game, it’s ****ing boring.
Nearly 21k tonight and if not for the Coventry fans, more noise from the morgue would have been heard.

Another typical, unremarkable Slater performance. It amazes me he never gets subbed. I refer back to my previous analogy of the worker who sweeps the same spot on the workshop floor to look busy without doing anything productive.

That quote from Robins there, sums up one of the main reasons we 'fanny about' with the ball so much, we're finishing games so strongly and able to exert pressure on teams cos they're knackered from chasing us round the pitch.
