    I saw that last night. I suspect it's more to do with who we were playing tbh.

    I like that even across the pond there is something inherently dull about West Brom.

    Why do more people tune in to watch us playing Man Utd, Liverpool , Chelsea and Arsenal than they do to watch them playing other clubs or each other? Unless the Burnley game skewed the figures?

    It's because we are massive ... and the Yanks have good taste (oh...hang on!)

    Really?
    It could be, but the fact we've had far less matches broadcast than the others at the top but still have had more viewers is a bit odd isn't it?

    We're just massive in the US...live with it

    The mount of games doesn't affect the average, it is the total of viewers divided by the number of games played.

    It's a Hull Tigers thing, no other reason. Name changing marketing geniuses.

    Tigers? Common, lousy name.

    Maybe why some of the new football clubs have called themselves something shorter like City.

    Doh!
    That'll teach me to not comment after a passing glance!

    I think I posted a similar list a while back, along with Hull's very own failed teams with "Americanised" names. I believe I also kept tabs on our capital's finest & world leading brand, "London Tigers'" exploits in the FA Cup.

    Can't recall you doing so, Ben. Wouldn't have posted it if I had.

    The failed Hull teams names was quite funny in an ironic kind of way.

    I read that at first as Grumbling State Tigers. Immediately made me think of this board.

    Every City league game has been on live here in the Frozen North.
    Average number of viewers at least 3.
