We have the story of this season, it started at the final whistle, the last game of last season. The fences put in front of us we have had to jump over this season has made it so incredible. Yes some of it was our own making but come on, you have to be impressed, **** Wrexham Hollywood, the only story is…
Hull city Ullywood, the eye of the tiger !!! now that’s a series I’d watch.
Shame acun didn't go ahead with the doco!
 
**** me, I’m starting to get a bit nervy. Planned to set off for my 74 mile drive to the hotel at 8:30am But want to go now. In my mind I can see that I could get to the Fer Ark pub, have a couple of pints, get to Wembley Way and just stand there waiting for the day to build.

For the 2008 play off, I drove to Hull on the Friday, stayed with family and then six of us in my car (one in the boot) drove down to Harrow, parked at a pub (The Landlord actually paid me one of his outstanding parking fines and gave us all a lift to the station).
I drove back to Hull after the game and came back on the Monday.

This feels so similar.

Except one big difference.

What the club is doing for its supporters.

Does anyone remember being in a pub and the whole squad walked past. I think it was the FA Cup?

Just brilliant.
 
Everyone will have noticed but the news on this has largely been about Southampton, barely a mention of Hull and now even less about Boro. The supporters inconvenienced not at all.

Been out newsed by arse winning the league, Villa win a cup in Europe and now the England squad is announced.

Maybe tomorrow will be our newsworthy day.

Thoughts for all those no longer here to share our excitement and pride. My personal thoughts are with my mate Phil, all those years driving the length and breadth of the country to watch City and dreaming of being at Wembley. That knowing, passionate hug we gave each other in 2008 meant we didn’t need words. Thankfully we made three more trips together but he’s not here for this one. More than anyone, I’ll be thinking of Phil tomorrow as the teams run out.
