    I agree with this, though it's very inconsistent at the moment.

    I don't mind our build up being a little more cautious, if it prevents so many counters where teams seemingly score against us with their first chance. But at the moment, we still look wide open. I don't like to single out players but Jobe doesn't seem to know what his role is and he's not putting in a shift on the defensive side.

    The full back personnel are leaving us a little unbalanced but they're doing their best to support the attacks. Seelt is pushing a bit too far forward if anything and not making himself available for a simple pass.

    Pritch and Clarke are the key men as ever but there's plenty to like in Neil and Ekwah's work so far.

    Three times the shots.

    Two corners to nil.

    Five bookings to Hull.

    Great move there.

    Are we playing to get as many of them sent off as possible?

    How few players will Hull have to have left before we look like doing anything? 9? 8?

    That was so much better, better pace on passes and keeping the width - thats how we have to play 2nd half

    I don’t particularly mean our performance, I mean the game in general.

    Hull are rotten.
