    I was surprised to find quite a disparity between the BBC website reporting of tonight's Brighton match, the match stats and fans views on here. There is almost no mention of a Hull attack (except Mclean's shot at the end), I understand we hit woodwork twice and this is not mentioned. Has anyone else noticed this? For those who went, is this reporting a fair reflection of the game?

    I sent the BBC a snotty email after our glorious victory over Arsenal in the EPL when they failed to give Hull any credit for a great win on the BBC website. Strangely they were disinterested in my complaints. Is the BBC anti-Hull City???? :emoticon-0181-fubar

    Is this connected to the Jackson trial?

    To be fair, the Hartlepool fishermen who killed the monkey thought he was French.

    "The fishermen apparently questioned the monkey and held a beach-based trial. Unfamiliar with what a Frenchman looked like they came to the conclusion that this monkey was a French spy and should be sentenced to death. The unfortunate creature was to die by hanging, with the mast of a fishing boat (a coble) providing a convenient gallows."

    True story. And an inspirational one, some may say.

    Hmm. How come I'm on the Hull forum all of a sudden? I thought I was on General Chat. Very disconcerting.

    Sorry for the interruption, people.

    It was on both the hull city forum and the general chat one, presumably by accident since it holds little relevance to none tigers so it's been removed from the general chat

    I just sent an e-mail to them to complain about it, including their own match statistics (which completely contradict the article) and quotes from several Brighton supporters who thought we should have won.
    I'm not expecting anything back though.

    Err - you're thinking about Hartlepool. Nowhere near Hull!
