The Hull fans don't deserve Premiership football. They were a disgrace last night, running onto the pitch and confronting the Derby players and getting in the face of the Derby manager. Classless, no marks.
Firstly, I didn't know you'd been temporarily banned (don't tell me I don't want to hear the lurid details how you dropped your daks and crapped all over the floor of your local pub or something). If I had have known I would have filled in your Prediction League forecasts for you - you wouldn't have got any points at all mind but at least you would have been there to be counted. Secondly, you are right about the Hull City fans who do not have a good reputation but they have been brain-washed, brow-beaten and treated like absolute cr@p by the current owners Assem and Ehab Allam (commonly referred to as "King Tut and his Son") who, because they weren't given the KC Stadium and allowed to re-name the Club "Hull Tigers" they threw all their toys out of their pram, spit their dummies and decided to punish the fans by stopping Pensioner Concessions for season tickets and making kids pay full price - YES you heard right! The Club is up for sale but having little or no assets and a debt of about 100 million to King Tut it is unlikely they will get a buyer unless he is deaf, dumb and blind but I would reckon his Guide Dog would smell a rat and prevent the sale going through. Basically they are a decent lot of supporters as many people who have been in distress have found out with the fans rallying round and raising copious amounts of money for people on their arsebones. Last night was disgraceful I agree but after playing the entire game WITHOUT ONE SHOT ON GOAL (absolutely inexcusable) and then the relief of Derby failing to get that other goal they needed was perhaps a little too much for some ardent fans.
Admittedly the Hull owners are a disgrace and Football will be a better place without them. Absolutely agree with that. The rest just sounds like one big excuse you are making for the fans behaviour. Just because your team doesn't have a shot on goal during a game of football, or because you haven't been happy with the way your owners have been running the club, that doesn't give them any right to do that to the Derby players and manager. Especially after winning and they were hurting enough. I found it totally classless, so excuse me for not wanting them to be promoted.
You are not on your own Safc83, I have been on the Hull Boards earlier and everyone is disgusted by the attitude of those fans. No excuses at all. My son, who was there at the game, tells me that the stewards dropped no end of Hull City fans as they tried to get on the pitch. The instigator (who shirt fronted the Derby player, Keogh) has been recognized and he will be banned for life if that's any consolation. I wasn't trying to make an excuse but rather an explanation as, like I said, there is no excuses for that behaviour.
The bloke who shirt-fronted Derby Captain Keogh is a known trouble maker and has a chequered history for bad behaviour: http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/revealed-scumbag-hull-fan-who-7998699 Shame on the prick!
