Hull City playing in Europe. I'll repeat that. Hull City playing in Europe. I don't care about the consequences, I don't care which godforsaken ****-hole in Eastern Europe we end up in, Hull city playing in a European competition is ****ing amazing. I've been waiting almost forty years to watch us play a team I've never heard of.
Like you OLM i have followed city for 40 years. Seen some good and bad times but a run in europe would be great for us. Remember going round the kc stadium on sunday opening day in 2001,rain coming down and thinking WOW.Imagine playing top class teams in this great stadium, it is almost here. SO BRING IT ON
I share your sentiments Lammie, I really do. But surely you remember our last European adventure? The 1973 Anglo-Italian cup. Beat both Lazio and Verona 2-1. Drew 0-0 with Bari. Lost to Fiorentina. Still managed to finish bottom of our group due to the most ridiculous system ever conceived. In a mini league against teams that we never even played. http://www.rsssf.com/tablesa/angloit73.html I've been waiting 41 years for a chance of European revenge. Nothing's gonna stop us now.
How about: FL Fart, a Norwegian football club located in Vang. Also called Fotballaget Fart. ZTE, Zalaegerszegi Torna Egylet, a Hungarian football team based in the city of Zalaegerszeg. Jaworznickie Stowarzyszenie Piłkarskie Szczakowianka, also known as Garbarnia Szczakowianka Jaworzno, a Polish soccer team currently playing in the IV Liga. NAC Breda, a Dutch side, full name is: Nooit opgeven altijd doorgaan, Aangenaam door vermaak en nuttig door ontspanning, Combinatie Breda. .
If we draw Dukla Prague I'll be able to wear my away kit. I got it for Christmas, it's all I ever wanted.
Just 'cos your Uncle owned a sports shop. There's no need to boast. You're talking like that bloke who used to hand me my Giro every two weeks. #badmemories
Haha FC Fart quality, my mates changing his stag do to a European away game can't wait. Some old Ex city Pyscho's going though but they're just banter boys now, oh the memories of Lincoln City away...
Am I reading you right CG. You wanna contact ex-deputy chief constable of Greater Manchester Police, John Stalker, just 'cos I guessed that you come from a family of sports equipment salesmen? He is 75 and long since retired you know.
I'll be honest. I couldn't remember. Although it was on the tip of my tongue, so to speak. I googled it. It's Drummer, isn't it?
It was indeed Drummer. At least that was the name of the dog in the advert Stalko did for those sun blinds, for all I know it might have been a dog actor called Drummer with no connection or affiliation with the John. We'll probably never know.
It does feel all rather surreal OLM playing in Europe instead of just playing a European team, like in a friendly match of years past. But along with Siemens, City Of Culture and now this maybe that t-shirt I use to see people wearing 'It's Never Dull In Hull' may have more of a meaning then ever before.
