    Sun, 01 Dec 2013 14:05 Hull City vs Liverpool (Sky Sports)
    Wed, 04 Dec 19:45 Arsenal vs Hull City
    Mon, 09 Dec 20:00 Swansea vs Hull City (Sky Sports)
    Sat, 14 Dec 17:30 Hull City vs Stoke City (Sky Sports)
    Sat, 21 Dec 15:00 West Brom vs Hull City
    Thur, 26 Dec 12:45 Hull City vs Man Utd (Sky Sports)
    Sat, 28 Dec 15:00 Hull City vs Fulham

    We all know what happens when Sky televise a match. 21 points up for grabs. To be honest I'd take 8 points now if I could.

    There's 10 points for us there. Well placed for the second half of the season, cup semis & a Wembley date.

    This whole "you know what happens on Sky" thing is bogus. People really need to get it out of their heads.

    Always strange results over xmas period.

    I could see us doing Man U 1-0 and then losing to Fulham 2 days later.

    Firstly SB as got to get more pace out wide Hopefully Brady will get back to form, we all know missing Aluko is a big loss so the only thing i can think of is moving Elmo further up and bringing rosy back. Hopefully doing this will give Tom Huddlestone more chance of putting in some penetrating passes in the final third instead of going sideways because Boyd or koren are not quick enough to get forward. I honestly think we will do well to get any points in the next three but really hope i am wrong. One thing for sure i cant see us having much possession against Liverpool or Arsenal so we have to catch them on the break however have we got the forwards with the pace? Anyway i would be happy overall with another six to put us on twenty at the half way point anything extra would be a bonus

    1) Playing on sky doesn't have any input into how we play football
    2) We have played better against bigger teams that don't set out to counter attack and we haven't been able to break down the **** teams e.g Sunderland/Palace

    Most of our games where on Sky last year and we won promotion.

    It's not a thing.

    Take each game as it comes. We'd have had ourselves down to beat Palace and we didn't. We're on target to stay up and some shrewd additions in January will see us through.

    There's some tough games next month but some quite winnable ones too,especially at the KC.

    I hope SB pops Rosie at RB and moves Elmo up,sticks Brady at LW,drops Koren and put Sagbo up front with Gedo.

    We've missed Brady's width....

    We conceded our second goal at home all season yesterday, and we're a week from December.

    You you'll forgive me if I don't soil my dainties just yet.

    Be honest now - how many of you had a sneaking feeling yesterday that Palace of all teams would be the one to beat us first at home. We're like father christmas when it comes to giving out points to those in need. We always have been.

    The greater the challenge, the greater the resistance.

    I said to Chazz on Friday night that I fancied us to take a point against Liverpool. No matter how depressing yesterday was (and I thought we'd win 2-1). I still have a feeling in my water that we'll take a point against Liverpool. I'm going for 10 points in December and that includes all 3 against West Brom. But then having just got married last week I'm probably mentally still on honeymoon! <smooch>: Give it another week of married life and I could be down to 6 points... <yikes>

    For all who noticed my question to Circa (3.414, Pi) yesterday regarding his reference to our owners being a "cancer" who need to go "ASAP", I'm sure you did, it caused quite a stir on Chilt's "Allam Will Walk Away" thread (pages 10-15ish). I hope you also noticed the lack of response from Circa himself, who like Tickler before him chose to ignore their previous vile condemnation of our owners.

    Circa though has now responded via the backdoor. Not man enough to explain his comments of last year or his change of heart this year he has actually responded here, hidden in negative rep to my post regarding December's fixtures.

    "Allam comment" check it out it it's a wonderful measure of the man.

    For the record I don't give a flying **** about rep but do find this extremely funny.

    Reputation Circa? Along with values & principles you wouldn't know what they are even if they slapped you around your sad pathetic chops.

    Have a nice you wonderful people.

    7 points. I'd be pleased to take 1 point from our next 3 games. Hope Davies will get booked against Liverpool so he misses the Arsenal game as I believe he's on 4 yellows.

    Aside from Arsenal away and Man U at home I reckon we can get something from the others. I expect us to turn it on against Liverpool after Saturfays fantastic performance.

    It would be 'typical City' to turn over a top team....

    We'll collect points off at least one of the big teams this season, I'm hoping we get points off United as we failed to get any off them first time around.

    Those games look tricky but you won't go down, your better than teams like Palace, Sunderland and Stoke.
