It's quite a giggle that the Daily Mail called the 3-5-2 formation 'on trend', given that it was Bruce who started it in the Prem. So much for the dinosaur tag he had before he joined us! A total turnaround.
P.S. - The London Evening Standard : http://www.standard.co.uk/sport/foo...rdinand-despite-hull-city-defeat-9673608.html ....and the HDM: http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Hull...er-eclipses/story-22758645-detail/story.html?
"Impressive"? (My arse.....) http://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/2896/premier-league/2014/08/17/5039836/-?
Hull boss Bruce was disappointed with Pawson’s decision to award QPR a penalty late on and believes the rule regarding handball needs to be clarified. “The referees have got to get together and realise they’re making a mockery of it - it’s supposed to be deliberate,” Bruce said. “Chester has got his hand by his side, the ball is a yard away and probably travelling at 50 miles per hour - what’s he supposed to do? “We need to stop all this nonsense and have a bit of common sense.” Bruce is absolutely spot on here. Thanks for posting links BTW.
"We need ten wins this season and now it's nine. That's one a month. It sounds easy but it's harder than you think," said Bruce.
I'll take 5 points from next 4 games. Where do I sign? Stoke (h) W Villa (a) D wHU (h) D Newcastle(a) L Owt more is a bonus.
Daily mail report is actually very good (surprisingly!) They give man of the match to Robertson, so kudos to them for actually being arsed to watch the match! Can imagine most papers and pundits will have just looked at it and gone, Chester scored we'll give it him......also show distance covered stats, our lads covered 2.7 miles more than them, good work, those 2 Trencin games helped out there i reckon MINS PLD KM MILES QPR total 112.8 70.1 Joey Barton 90 12.3 7.6 Jordon Mutch 90 12.3 7.6 Loic Remy 90 10.9 6.8 Hull City total 117.1 72.8 Jake Livermore 90 12.1 7.5 Nikica Jelavic 90 11.8 7.3 Tom Huddlestone 90 11.6 7.2
Robertson had a great debut but still myself and many others on the MOTM 123 thread gave it to Chezzy as I thought he was the best player on the pitch regardless of scoring

Chester and Robertson both got in the Daily Mail's team of the day, while Chester and McGregor got in the BBC's team of the day. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...tml?ITO=1490&ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490 http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b007t9y1 (scroll to the bottom of the page for this one)
Just read the match report in Sunday Times by none other than Brian Glanville. Of course it's a 'DQPR lose' rather than 'HCFC win' report. Every game report has marks out of 10 for both sides / each player's performance. Except one team. Can you guess which one?
Quick question. When you refer to Alan McGregor as 'Greegsy' is that pronounced as it's spelt or as 'Greg-say'?
You'll love the write up we got from the Mirror by the way. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/match-reports/leicester-city-2-2-everton-foxes-4059886
We also featured in the cartoon 'Striker' in the Sunday Star (I think) Quinn, Snodgrass, Alex Bruce and McGregor. All of our players wearing yesterdays kit. But we lost 2-0.
