Hi Lads, Congrats on the win today. I'm the owner of the new English-Egyptian football website: kingfut.com. I've been following Hull since the Allams came in, but due to lack of Championship coverage in Egypt, we don't get to watch the Tigers regularly. Now that Elmo has joined, Egyptians are supportive of Hull City are very interested in reading about Elmo's performances. I was wondering if someone would be interested in writing short posts on a weekly basis for kingfut.com, mainly match summaries with a detailed Elmo-watch. Here's our profile on Elmohamady btw: http://www.kingfut.com/2012/07/05/player-profile-ahmed-elmohamady/ I will be checking these forums regularly but you can also reach me by email: [email protected] or twitter: @egyft & @king_fut.
He had a very good first game today in our 3-1 win over Bolton and knocked one of our better players Liam Rosenior out of the starting line up. Good luck with the website....nice name
Mabrook on the website, just need to change the colour of shirt to Black and amber now in the picture.
Thanks guys! I'd gladly replace the photo when I get my hands on him in action with the tigers. Looking to really build Hull's Egyptian fan base. If you find any pics or videos, would be very much appreciated if you could link me to them!
How about putting Hull City as a tab at the top on the homepage. That would be great to see and this would raise the profile of the mighty Tigers with people in Egypt.!
We want to have a section dedicated to Hull City, but we need writers for it - who are supporters of the club. Hence this thread!
Welcome to the site, Apthh. How big a player is Elmohamady in Egypt? We used to have Zaki here and our chairmen, of course was born there. But it's only now we've come across this. Is Elmohamady a big icon in Eygpt?
Thanks Golaccio! I woudn't call Elmo an icon in Egypt, yet. But he's one of the few Egyptians in England (and throughout Europe), and of course an international so he's got a lot of support! Amr Zaki was a bigger 'icon' because of his crazy spell with Wigan, but Elmo is a true professional and plays his heart out so we love him!
Here's a short summary on the site for Hull's win this weekend, mainly focused on Elmo. Let me know what you lads think, and if you have highlights of the game for me to add I'd greatly appreciate a link! http://www.kingfut.com/2012/09/03/pharaohs-abroad-weekend-recap-2/
I've only heard good things from City fans when asked about Elmo's City debut. Good going forward and bombed up and down the wing all day. He also got the ball and passed it to Simpson, who set up Quinn for the third goal. Other than spelling Rosenior wrong, not that important really, the article is pretty accurate mate. Good site by the way. The more media coverage for City the better.
