I thought he always had a threatening shot on him when he laced one to be honest. His first City goal, away at Oxford in League One during covid, was an absolute beauty of a volley on his left foot. He just wasn't good enough at the more subtle stuff; keeping the ball in tight spaces and his passing in general weren't anywhere near as good as his shooting.
10,000 neglecting their parental responsibilities, abusing their kids, knocking their wives about & singing “Tigers Tigers rah rah rah” Would you give them all jobs?
Well, fair point, but we were neck and neck in the table, just like us and Charlton now, and Leicester were thought to be a 'top side'. I'm just surprised that some posters seem to be almost playing for a draw, and that was before we knew who was fit or not. I just think we're good enough for a win if we turn up again.
No Charlton aren't Real Madrid , but they've got a very good recent record , similar to ours should be a very good game I don't think I've come away from a game this season and thought "That was a bit boring"
Dave Dewberrys Hull City supporting credentials were 100% in all the time I knew him through my support of the club. He had some great ideas, raised a lot of money for the club, formed the Action Group from which the TSA sprung up. Through the Action Group he got ordinary fans into the Board meetings who could actually cast votes on club decisions. No other fans group have managed that since. He put the club in the headlines when we were bottom of the FL ladder and he himself sought out Don Robinson and went to his house to persuade him to buy into the club. He got close to buying a stake himself by uncovering the worth of the non voting shares and persuading local businessman Paul Dixon, who later sponsored Grimsby Town, Ian Blakey, who later became a director and Don Robinson who later became chairman. Equal shares worth £10k each, all three were in, the fourth share was to be himself and as many Action Group members who could chip in to make up the other £10k. The club moved the goal posts when they realised Dewberry had the backing. To answer your 'neglecting his parental responsibility'? I for one knew nothing what happened behind his front door at that time and I don't think many people did until Michelle's book came out some years later. As Dave disappeared from the area a long time ago, he isn't around to put his side of the story. I don't know it and neither do you. But my comments stand. At the height of DD's Hull City supporting time he had more ideas and raised more cash for the club then the commercial department were doing.
I am still laughing at the thought of Brains or anyone else with him chanting Tigers Tigers Rah Rah Rah like some buffoon does.
You better explain who Brains is because those casting judgement wouldn't know the bloke in question if he was sat next to them on one of Simon Grays buses.
Yes, not losing games. They then lost to us. They now have 1 win in 7 and their supporters are pretty frustrated. Perspective is a funny thing! This is all getting a bit nitpicky, I merely questioned the observation that they were in form, they were performing reasonably average.
