Sutton on Hull
Note the YPs evening paper referred to 'United's trip to Humberside' .. why Humberside not the East Riding or East Yorkshire..

They hate the fact that they got mullered by another Yorkshire side.. typical wessies. They are 'Leeds United after all' and not 'Leicester, Hull or Cardiff' - see subsequent deluded posts. You couldn't make it up..

PS Thread should read Yorkshire Evening Post - a ****e evening paper that makes the HDM look good..

On friday evening the Hull edition of Look North was referring to Leeds as Hull City's Yorkshire rivals. For years Leeds played in the old first division and the premiership while Hull swanned about in the lower leagues. Rivals? They weren't even mentioned in the same breath.

The bloke who said it must live in Humberside as well if he knows what it said on our local news.

Twats.

The clue is in his username "Grimsbywhite" Probably North Lincolnshire
 
I liked the first few paragraphs:

Back in September, Millwall visited the KC Stadium and tried their hand at mirroring Hull’s tactics. They were duly murdered, conceding four goals before half-time.

Leeds United survived for longer on Saturday but the disparity between their version of 3-5-2 and the model adopted so seamlessly by Hull was largely identical. United’s trip to Humberside took them to the cleaners on a wet and depressing afternoon.

Rather than be magnanimous, Steve Bruce decided to tell it like it was. Hull’s manager talked of “smashing” Leeds and admitted to chiding some of his players for “showboating” after City’s second goal in the 55th minute sucked all semblance of life from United. “I had a word with a few of them,” he said afterwards. “We should have gone in for the kill.”

Bruce’s gripe referred to the scoreline but he knew that his players had gone in for the kill from the earliest minutes of an uneven derby. Hull will go far this season and further still if a bona fide goalscorer is added to their squad next month. Had Bruce fielded one on Saturday, the result would have been a bloodbath

Come on 'Ull!
 
Humberside (pron.: /ˈhʌmbərsaɪd/) was a non-metropolitan and ceremonial county in Northern England from 1 April 1974 until 1 April 1996.
It was abolished on 1 April 1996, with four unitary authorities being formed: North Lincolnshire, North East Lincolnshire, Kingston upon Hull and East Riding of Yorkshire. The name has continued in use as a geographic term and in the names of institutions such as Humberside Police and Humberside Fire and Rescue Service.

Eureka!

That word Humberside should have been extinguished along with the cretins that thought it up
 
It is still a geographic term, yes, but even the newly elected Tory Police Commissioner wants to change it to Humber Police. Note also the economic region is Yorkshire & Humber to include parts of the south bank.

My point is YEP could have referred to us as East Yorkshire being fellow Yorkshiremen but mischievously IMHO chose to refer to us as Humberside after being mullered at the KC.

so why you reading it ???/ i dont stick my cock in the fire and complain its hot , then moan about it on here ffs!
 
Bloody Hell I can't believe how touchy some of you are about the name "Humberside", just take it on the chin or better still ignore it.
That was the most complimentary article I've read about City this season and it also had the added spice of hammering Leeds.
What do you want, jam on it?
 
There still seem to be some people incapable of distinguishing the discontinued administrative county of Humberside, and the geographical region of Humberside that pre-dated it.

I don't like you.

But your stance on this tedious subject is spot on. Well done and happy new year.
 
I think it's a pretty **** article. Even ignoring the schoolboy error of using Humberside, the entire report suggests it's disgraceful that the mighty Leeds could lose to Hull City. It's not complimentary at all, it just says they were **** so we won basically.

A bit like Warnock after the game whose 'compliments' were that we are the most organised team in the league. Cheers Colin. Not brilliant football, dragging your boys around the park and creating chances with ease, no, we were just 'organised'.
