Match Day Thread Hull City U21's v Crewe U21's.

I think the reason the west of most British towns are posher than the east is the fact that in the Industrial Revolution most stinky factories were built in the east so that the prevailing wind would take all the nasty fumes away from the towns and cities, rather than into them.

 

Thought Dicko had a good game, and Clappison was solid after a 5/6 week absence due to injury.

 

I'd agree with that Tucks, because my late father-in-law always said the same thing.

 

Opposite in Sydney, East is where it's at, all the millionaire mansions are over that way, and the West is the more run down area.

 

Prevailing winds. Think where the treatment works is located in relation to Hull. Saltend.

 

Prevailing wind.

 

North East of USA, South East of UK.
With Hull it's because people don't have to travel around Hull to get to the rest of the country and east of Hull has the winds from the North Sea.

 

Do you remember when Hull Fish Meal & Oil Co. used to pump out there waste water - stinking of fish? You could smell it all over central/north hull, but not out west.

 

I don't remember that but I know that there was a strong fish smell along Hedon Road.

 

It's certainly true that's why many towns developed are as they are. The failing is that the south westerley's tend to be warmer, so can carry more, and at a relatively greater height, so it gets more diluted.

The north easterly, being colder, can't carry as much or as high and dump it nearer the source. So the west tend to be at a greater health risk over all due to higher maximums.

 

More importantly, what the hell have they done to his right arm over the past year?

 

I think that is my head between the ball and his head, and yes you are right it shirt does look better.

 

Were you feeling ok John, you look a bit hazy?

 

Yes but that's in the southern hemisphere so it would be the other way round... (getting desperate here!).

 

I sometimes have prevailing wind. I live to the West of Hull. I can only apologise!

 

And that was before I had a couple of pints at half time.

 

What's this with Ehab going to U21s but none of the family going to first team matches despite watching on a live feed. It doesn't make sense.
