Giles was touted as a really good attacking left-back who can be a bit suspect with the defensive parts. We've pretty much asked him to defend in often really isolated situations and not utilised the strong points of his game at all really.
Was caused by our incessant pressure at that point. Boro were on their knees. Allsop cannot save shots near his body.
today was a must win game for both and it was a really enjoyable game to watch let's be honest, we did'nt lose the play offs today really a fit delap today though.. would have been so good
They were absolutely there for the taking tonight. 7 wins at home out of 20 games played. That's the kind of form that'd normally get you relegated, not promoted.
I think at the moment, that's exactly what we are capable of. We've been complaining that we don't have a striker, or we don't score enough goals, yet the bigger problem, in my opinion, has been at the other end. We've had seven games this season we haven't scored in. We've kept a grand total of eight clean sheets out of 41, which roughly means we concede in 4 out of every 5 games we play in. That's not Allsop being ****, that's defensive liability (though he doesn't exactly cover himself in glory). I don't want to single anybody out in particular, but there are two players in our backline that just aren't cutting it for me and they haven't been for a while now.
Win at QPR is a must, as well as the game in hand against Coventry. Norwich have to lose twice for us to have a chance.
I think I predicted 8th -10th. I guess it's just whether you think that's a good season or not. That was a ****ing good game of football though, against the form side. We performed. C'est la Vie.
I get that sentiment but our attendances have increased significantly this season and last in no small part due to Acun encouraging people in Hull who may not even be supporters of City previously to attend. There’s been a heavy emphasis and incentive for parents to bring their kids. I can’t really blame them for giving this one a miss. Even I had to leave around the 88th minute tonight due to the delayed kickoff so I could get the bus and I never leave before the final whistle.
we played really well today, bar the first 20 mins we created 18 chances and 7 on target their keeper made a wonder save a defender cleared a shot off the line and some poor finishing should have won us the game alsopp cost 1 goal, almost 2 with the palming it right to their striker today showed the potential of the system its not possible to play with max tempo for all 90, players tire, momentum changes, but when we need a breather and/or the opposition ups their tempo, controlling the ball slows the game down and puts in our hands we upped the tempo quite a lot today and created the chances boro are a good team who also needed to win, like i said, in and of itself, this was a great game of football and shows why the championship is good we had no one to bring on really, shocking bench inexperiened team and inexperienced manager we need some good recruitment in the summer
