    Smashing result that and one we grafter for.

    Draw would have been palatable so more bonus points.

    I wonder if were primed in jan if theyll double down, 'alleged' bids for that Orban on deadline day, if true, suggests they just might.

    Give RLB a break lads ffs...we've won 7 out of 10 and folk are on his back about his subs. I'm just enjoying it whilst it lasts and RLB can do what he likes.

    Thought Connolly done well to slow the game down when he came on too. Won about 4 fouls iirc.

    Don't think they allowed to give pens for incidents outside the box

    It was outside the box, Mepham could have been off though.

    Massive win that. Such a tight game and we get what I thought we just about deserved. Excellent at seeing the game out.

    Mepham probably the best signing of the season. He is way above the championship level to be honest. MotM today for me. Thought Neil was excellent today as well. The work he gets through in our defensive play is huge but today he was also setting off our attacking play. Hume was excellent as well today I thought. Good defensively and offered option down the right.

    I don't think the ref got in the way, their player ran into the refs area on the pitch. Think rules are for the ref to stop the game he has to have contact with the ball and he didn't. Their player still has the ball and could've laid it off but he tried to be clever

    Must admit I like the Kappa jacket, without the Hull badge of course.

    Think this was down to who took the chances. They sat back and attempted to hit us on the break and had a few chances which they failed to take. Second half we sat off them a bit and wondered if it was a bit of a ploy to draw them out. This give us the chance to turn the tables and hit them on the break. Isador was brilliant and excited the break away perfectly and the chip to beat their goalkeeper was sublime.

    Hull were a lot better than I expected, though they didn't create that much. Chicken and egg whether our attack was poor or their defence good.

    Cracking mentality from the coaches and players to watch another team overtake us and then go and get the win.

    Haway the lads and enjoy your Sunday folks!

    I’m gonna keep this going, as I have after every game.

    It is mind blowing the level up of Jobe over the close season. The lad isn’t even joking he is just quality at all he does.

    That said, Mepham MOTM but also credit Dan and Mundle, who didn’t get a break but grafted his bollocks off start to end.

    I think Neil was back to some solid form today too. Better on the ball and did more ground work.

    Bellingham stepped up and add some serious combat strength in the second half. Was important as we were starting to drift a touch.
