...but the bank holiday week-end weather is looking rather warm and dry. Well, when I say warm I mean mid to high teens Celsius for the East Riding area. Jet stream is forecast to move further north bringing warmer air. Celebrational barbecue weather indeed. Now, if we just had something to celebrate at the week-end...............
Well we're guaranteed our equal highest ever finish at this level. Or did we finish 2nd when only 1 went up around 65 years ago or omething?!?

I've got something to celebrate this weekend. It's my birthday! And everyone else should be celebrating it too!
Strange that the weather will be fine and dry all over England and Wales except for dark clouds of pessimism located over the Leicester area....
Odds on the latter are pretty ruddy slim though arent they? And Id rather play you than Florist and Id rather play Palace than anyone....
Are they? Odds on the former are pretty ruddy slim but you girls still think it's gonna happen Oh, and i'd rather play you than Watford. Watford did the double over us in first gear and we got four points off you lot in the same style
Yeah to be fair, Watford are far better than Hull, (though apparently the table does not lie!) so would definitely want to play Hull not Watford. Then again its all academic as we will finish 8th! hahaha!
The table doesnt lie - all teams in every country in every league have good days and bad days and over the 9 months the table says which team had more of the former and fewer of the latter. If they finish 2nd then they're better than us, simple as.
As I have said before, I do not fancy our chances in the play-offs what-so-ever, we will be totally shot of confidence missing out on the autos, and we are already totally shot of form.
IF, and it's a big IF, we are in the play-offs does anyone know if Aluko would be anywhere near fit? Anyone been to training and can see what involvement, if any, he has had?
I'm guessing none me old chum, bum. If aluko was anywhere near training we'd sure have heard about it by now.
Didn't realise it was a Bank Holiday, cheers pal got a free monday coming, hopefully a happy one too fingers crossed!
