Match Day Thread Hull City v Blackburn Rovers

Saturday 23rd August 12:30 kick off
Same team same subs barring injuries??

 

Voted as draw (trying to keep grounded), but hoping we can sneak it by a goal.

1-1 or 2-1 to us!

Macca obvs scores for them!

AWOOGA

 

Another 12.30 home game. Won't be able to make it. I've deliberately not checked to see how many of our home fixtures are early kick offs, but if I have the same issue this season as last season then I won't be able to justify keeping my season pass. Made it to 8 games last time around.

 

Although I was a fan of Macca I would get Gelhardt to target and run at him as much as possible as he seemed to struggle against quick and nippy players. 3-0 to the Tigers with McBurnie on the scoresheet again.

 

I heard the news today oh boy, there's more holes in Blackburn Lancashire than there are hotel beds in Portugal.


The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.

 

My grandfather passed away two weeks ago. His family was from Blackburn so there but for the grace of God.. Still nice timing of the fixture though.

 

I live just outside and can concur on both pot and arse.
Seriously though, as most places, there are plenty of decent folk too.

 

Sorry to hear that Syd.
R.I.P. Grandad.

 

Where abouts? I live a few miles away. Saw a young boy last week on a bike at a park/cricket ground with a city top on. Was trying to see who his parents where to say hello however lost site of him. Wasn’t you was it? Edgworth was the cricket ground.

 

No, it wouldn’t have been me but strangely, my Grandson has started playing cricket, amongst many other things and last year when we went to watch him at Brinscall (just off the M65 in between Blackburn, Chorley and Preston) there was a young lad wearing a City shirt and I asked his Dad what the connection was and he was from Hull.

 

4-0 City.

 

5-4 city. We’ve finally got Walterball

 

Gone for a City win again. I think we might just edge it. We’re obviously not going to win every game, but I think with every game we will get more into it and improve.

 

My 72 nd birthday, 2-0

 

Same prediction as last Sunday City 3-1

 

Draw, I think they’ll attack, we’ll attack, hopefully as someone wrote earlier, Gelhardt gets at McL & gives us an edge.
Is McL playing CB or LB there?

 

This has got three nil written all over it.

 

No offence to Macca. But he'd struggle against some of that quick passing and movement we saw the last couple of games.

 

Can see a Blackburn win here. Played two excellent teams so far so will be itching to get a result. Macca will be able to feed them insider info on certain strengths and weaknesses.

1-2

 

Can see Macca struggling against McBurnie. We should be ok on Saturday.
2-1 Tigers
