Match Day Thread Bradford v Hull City

Ok, it was poor. I can't think of many positives but I thought Robson did well and looks like a good prospect. I certainly wouldn't blame him for the goals or the result.

 

Having slept on it, what an excellent result this has turned out to be. The Mickey Mouse cup is way below us. Let’s focus on our goal of finishing mid table.

And let’s all laugh at Bradford. Idiots.

 

I’m hopeful we can Get out of the FA Cup at the first attempt too bob. We’ve got the system to do it, fingers crossed it goes to plan.

 

200,000 pound prize

its a useless cup. Only good for giving players who wouldnt get game time a chance.

 

That Wilks is a baller............ache.

On the positive side I've got Bratford in my league champions acca.. Turning over the tigs might spur them on. Every cloud eh?
Plus we 'might' see a performance from City on satdee. Notice the stressed might.

 

It’s embarrassing that we even get entered into it tbh. We should be able to opt out.

 

Plainly and simply..the Caravan Cup isn't what it used to be!
Barrow bt Blackpool
Fleetwood bt Wigan
Morecambe bt Stoke
Ports bt Cardiff
Charlton bt DQPR
Newport bt Luton
Oxford bt Swansea
Stevenage bt Reading

Well done City...out at the 1st opportunity.

 

First and foremost we have been here before in my 60 years supporting City, we lose to lower-ranked teams with regularity. Why? Well players just don't look arsed, they seem to mentally think this is a lower-level team we can turn up and walk over them, but time and time again it doesn't happen like that. Credit to Bradford who clearly could be arsed and did a job on us.

Having said all that, clearly we are very thin on the ground as far as quality is concerned. Wilk's tried hard, but his touch is awful and always has been. Cannon was probably the pick of the players on the night over 90 minutes, but he also is not good enough at Championship level. Covil is out of his depth at present and needs to spend time in the U21's. McLoughlin is an okay back up, but Jones/Figgy/Greaves are our best 3 centre backs.

Tufan looks quality though, and he is certainly proving doubters wrong, long may he continue to improve. I didn't think I would be saying this, but we need Docherty to be fit, as at least he brings some urgency to proceedings.

We desperately need to get injured players back and 3 or 4 new additions to bolster the ranks. We are a team in transition, these sorts of games are going to happen, so let's not get too hung up about it.

 

Totally agree, disgraceful!

 

Well said.

 

This was the best performance last night, the serenading of Tufan.

 

While I wouldn’t do it
Why shouldn’t they let them know this isn’t good enough for hull city?
Were they running through brick walls ? Desperate to claw a goal back?
Nope

 

It was good enough for little old Hull. We got a point against Preston y’know, that should keep us happy until Christmas.

 

Let’s be honest he couldn’t very well get any worse. So I’m sure he will.

 

A useless cup of which Liverpool and Manchester City are the two teams who have won it the most. 88,000 at the last final. Hope we never have to play in such a useless cup final.The other team would be happy to play us as they could have our unsold tickets.
