    He also picked up that yellow card which may have influenced it

    Another full weeks training with the team and more time to get ideas across and tweaks to the formation and roles.

    Plus we might have some new faces in by Friday

    We have a good team already ...

    ... it would only take two good signings, and a win on Friday, to fire everyone up.

    Balls to writing the entire season off in January ffs.

    We do have a good team that needs a couple of signing so existing players can be rested or rotated.

    Ideally a cf and a CM. I'd also like a fb as with cirkin and Huggins injured we are a little light.

    Agree mate. DCM to help Neil and possibly allow Ekwah to play further up the pitch. Big striker to give us an alternative way of playing if needed and FB for injuries

    That, jogging , has been going on for months. No player, Pritchard, Ballard and Hume being exceptions. Even Hume yesterday began to show signs...

    Is that the same Hull who we beat 3 weeks ago under our current manager?

    What’s that got to do with it? We’re favourites next Friday and rightly so but my point was Hull will fancy their chances - of course they will, we’ve been poor of late.

    I watched the game. They dominated the ball but didn’t create much. Tidy enough in possession. Reminded me a bit of us.

    Hull is an absolutely huge game, arguably the biggest game of the season so far. People can say it won't happen but I fear for Beale if we get beat. I have never seen negativity like this around a manager/coach before and that includes Parkinson. Desperate for 3 points.

    I think, after seeing yesterday we need a new spine. CDM, plus a playmaker (attacking midfielder), plus a person who can stick the ball in the net. it's frustrating that we have a load of young talent who make daft mistakes. Id lay off Beale though as he has at his disposal players he inherited. These same players though will mature and learn - so lets remember we are still there or thereabouts and hope we mature quicker than anticipated
