    And I did.

    Liked the Agnew quote. "We have to dust ourselves down and prepare for the next game".

    Ok. I'm gonna write a piece that contains factual inaccuracies, clichéd description and a smidge of Little Engerlander racism to boot.

    In the first paragraph.


    There were vacant looks and ambivalent shrugs when Marco Silva was named Hull City’s manager, but they do not stop singing about him in Europe’s Capital of Culture these days.

    Hull was not an obvious destination for that grand title, just as Silva was not the obvious choice to replace Mike Phelan in January, but both have done wonders for this gritty northern city. When Silva arrived in England, it was assumed he was nothing more than another economic migrant from Europe; unknown, his qualifications unclear. In short, he was lucky to be here.


    The Mail?

    The Sun?


    Nah. The Telegraph of course.

    And we've rightly been promoted to Europe's Capital of Culture too.

    That was the factual inaccuracy.
