****ing hell and they think Hull is rough Stink of Belle Isle or Seacroft, or Kippax, or Armleh, or Miggeh...
Well that game had everything, mistakes, hitting the post, leading 1.0 and should have been 2 , however suddenly it’s 3.1 down and at that point I can’t imagine many in that stadium who thought we would come back. But we did and seeing that equaliser go in what a feeling. Great atmosphere and walking away with a point felt like a win. A couple of weeks now to hopefully strengthen which we all know we need but tonight even though I had good intentions my dry January is over on day four. Enjoy.
If Acun was there I suspect he was saying "well thats more like it" cos he got the exciting pulsating play that he craves (that we all want I hope). Great game, super performance, well taken goals and blimey we scored from a corner. The whole team played their part but what a response from Kamara. Looking to see Vaughan play the full match against Donny. Lets see what he has got we saw glimpses of it today. And for those that say he needs to work in the gym to bulk up then he has in the last two games shown that he is not going to be knocked off the ball so easy this season-in fact it looks like he will do a fair bit of dishing it out to the opposition given the chance.
Walter made him pass to defence only who were often in ****e positions and our midfielders used to sit on the half way line. Don’t know what else he could have done. He’s found quite a few good quick throw outs since Selles came in.
Remember how **** we felt after the last minute Boro goal, well that's exactly what the White ****e feel now - love it!!
'I needed to prove a point' - Kamarapublished at 18:18 18:18 please log in to view this image IMAGE SOURCE, GETTY IMAGES Image caption, Abu Kamara's brace against Leeds were his first goals for Hull City Hull City forward Abu Kamara says he had a point to prove - after scoring twice in their 3-3 draw with Championship leaders Leeds United. In a week in which the forward was forced to apologise for a social media post on Portsmouth's Instagram account, Kamara opened the scoring before lashing home a late equaliser at the MKM Stadium. "It feels great – I've had a tough period of time but to come away with the two goals fills me with confidence to push on and do more," he told BBC Radio Humberside. "I needed to prove a point today and there were times I was thinking 'Shall I hide away from it?', but I'm not that kind of person." The 21-year-old spent last season on loan at Portsmouth before completing a £4.5m move from Norwich City in August. "It's been very difficult but the support around me from the team and manager, just knowing they have my back has made it easier," he said. "Scoring my first goals for the club is massive and to open my account in a Yorkshire derby feels great."
That was a lot of fun in the end. I really didn't want to be there at 3-1. It seemed like just a case of how many more they'd score at one point, and the typically humble Leeds support started having their fun dishing out all the jibes. We were totally penned in and our own goal kicks became terrifying. We have a real problem getting out of our half against decent sides and I think Pandur's kicking is a big part of that. Another big part is that not enough of our attackers can take the ball with their back to goal without getting easily forced off it, which is a huge part of the job of every attacker in the modern game. Burstow in particular needs to work on that. I still don't really understand how we did get back in it. Hilarious error from Meslier and Joãonny on the spot to finish. I was surprised we even got that high up the pitch as we weren't doing at all for the previous 15 minutes or so. Then equalising from a corner of all things with that Kamara volley. All seemed so unlikely. Two really brilliant strikes from him. We knew he had a good left foot but it's nice to finally see it put to use effectively. Some great defending too. Pandur's save with his head at 3-2 was massive. Even Fin Burns made a brilliant defensive header in the dying seconds. Jacob did another brilliant one earlier on, again showing how brave he is and how good he is at defending the back post under crosses. He was a good choice for this game, a proper scrapper. Leaving him out in the cold was another ridiculous Tim Walter thing. We got lucky in some ways but we made our luck. We're not perfect because of that result, and it could've easily ended up being a comfortable defeat. Leeds will be kicking themselves for not seeing it out. But we are competitive and we're fighting. We've had two very hard games this week and we've stood up to them. It gets easier from now on.
We’ve come away from these run of tough games with 4 points and nearly made it through undefeated. No way that happens under Walter.
If carlsberg did performances against mega arch rivals, they’d have given us another goal. But I’m happy with that. By eck did we need that after that bullshit against the smoggy ****s the other day.
Personally think our limitations playing out from the back are mainly due to the capability on the ball of a number of our back 4, a lack of confidence/technique (delete as appropriate) to play through the lines....think of how many times there's been a tough pass on this year but instead one of them has chosen to turn and play backwards instead.
You’re forgetting Alfie Jones flopping fish on the floor to get his arm out the way of the ball to avoid giving away a penalty, guess you won’t have seen that from the stands. That along with the Pandur facial save were the best moments of the game.
