August 13th, 2016.. This is a moment of disbelief. One of celebration. For a minimum of close to 24 hours, Hull City AFC, founded 112 years ago, will be TOP of arguably the best football league in the world !!! This is a stunning realization. It's up there with the landing of the first man on the moon. I do believe I'll crack open another bottle of my best plonk. Well done City - never in my life could I envisage this moment.
Just add it to the list of First Premiership appearance, First FA Cup Final, First foray into Europe.... we've come a long long way in a short short time..
You should be used to it by now. We topped the Premier League for a couple of hours in our first season under Phil Brown.
