Match Day Thread Hull City v Doncaster Rovers

[springtiger]

Im no expert but if I was to hazard a guess.

- I remember them saying they had to rush the install due to the RL games.
- we’ve had a mild and wet summer followed by a very wet winter
- maybe it is true what has been said previously that the ground doesn’t drain and get enough light as is

On the lights. Are they allowed to be out when it’s raining?

Sorry but this autumn winter has been very dry until a little over a week or so ago especially compared to 23 when we had a wet summer autumn and winter , there’s no excuse this year .

Pandur was poor against Leeds. He's the victim of terrible timing in that regard.

he had a game that was below his usual standards, but he still made saves that secured us a point. He most certainly shouldn't be dropped for it

Pandur was poor against Leeds. He's the victim of terrible timing in that regard.

He made one dodgy pass playing out from the back that Simons was also partially to blame for. He made several good saves that ensured we stayed in the game and got a point. He set high standards through his shot-stopping ability this season which has won more points for us than his errors have cost us. Same can’t be said of his predecessor Allsop whose poor shot-stopping cost us points.

I can't think of a single game pandur has cost us points in, but he's certainly the reason we aren't bottom of the league right now

For what it’s worth, Howden told me his concerns months ago about the state the club is in off the field back when Walter was still head coach and I don’t see why he would make this stuff up.

I also think he’s not forthcoming with this info because people on here will call him a bullshitter and having an ‘agenda’ against the owner and his cronies.

Well you’re the biggest drama queen on here and yes HT is a bullshitter. Anyone can say they have inside knowledge of the club but then pretend they can’t reveal what they know because the info is too sensitive.

 

[Tony Angelino]

And the cycle starts again next season when Rushworth returns and we need to find another number 2... it's yet another thing that shows we're completely directionless.

Surely by next season TLT or Cartwright should be ready to be number 2 or why have we even got them

You could argue Derby but that is clutching at straws

Both have had good loans. At some point you have to trust they’re good

Nah, he ****ed up for the second goal too. I like Pandur and I’d be delighted to see him continue and thrive, but I can see why a new manager might want to give someone else a chance.

It’s got absolutely nothing to do with Allsop btw, what a bizarre thing to mention.

I have inside knowledge from your parents that they want you to finally get a job and have a wash.

Knives out for Giles today. In the first half, he was one of the better players and put in some decent crosses but we lack the quality in the box to do anything with them.

Giles wasn’t bought for his defending capabilities. Middlesbrough coveted him because of the number of assists he created. In other words, he’s like a second rate Trent Alexandra. He is more
Important offensively than defensively.
But in a team that is full of substandard players like McLoughlin, his defensive frailties come under the magnifying glass. But what is the answer? Dremeh seems total gash on that side of the pitch and Matty Jacobs was utter gash early season and was responsible for us shipping goals from crosses coming in that side.

'Marty' jacobs might be or might not be the answer
But he wasnt at fault for goals earlier in the season
He wasnt playing

He got dropped because of mistakes in preseason and early doors. I really didn’t imagine all the comments from here st the time claiming he wasn’t good enough to play in this division.

Birmingham love Allsop btw.

He's found his level and good luck to him

Well I had a good day at the game.

Said before I was taking my disabled grandson for his first game. Staff were really good with him, and very helpful.
Wasn’t sure whether he’d want to even go in the ground, let alone stay for long, but he loved the walk up and going in (although we nipped through the disabled access so didn’t have to queue.) and the whole concourse experience when we wandered around there. Free fruit for kids is good too btw.
He did watch his iPad a bit first half, but he uses that to regulate his emotions and it worked really well. Whenever excitement built when we attacked he put his iPad down and watched and clapped along with everyone else.
Used the quiet room at half time which was great, and he enjoyed playing foosball on the concourse.
We left around 75 mins because he’d had enough (not that I disagreed!) but all in all it was a nice day. He is able to tell people he went, same as his brother has, and he enjoyed it, and he’s got his programme which he was reading when we got back.

Game wise I thought we looked ok first half, although still let them have a few easy breaks.
If we scored first half I think we’d win comfortably, but we didn’t so that’s how it goes.

That’s great he enjoyed it. Are these two occasions the first times you have watched a game sober?

In recent decades certainly!

You could argue some of our squad did today

Not quite. Looked no better against a league 2 side than they do in the Championship.

Isn’t that my point
