O/T But I just thought you should know something about your signature which I have mentioned on this board before (obviously without it sinking in) The 'mauled by the tigers' thing is supposed to be silly, that's why all of the people on that vid are either smiling or laughing. It's intended to be a self-depracating pi55 take - a bit like saying we can have a laugh at our own expense because we're not so far up ourselves to care. The other interesting thing about self-depracation is that it's a good method of separating down-to-earth people from arrogant to55ers because the latter never get the joke while the others do and just join in with it. BTW I only mentioned this FYI but I also expect the predictable 'must have touched a nerve' type response which is another strong indicator of someone that doesn't understand the concept of self-depracation.
I have no problem with 5000 grown men pretending to be Tigers Not sure how it makes me an arrogant tosser if I wouldn't be seen dead doing it, but each to their own. You continue doing it, do it when you play us next season
I've been banned for well over a year now The only reason you all still come here is because you're bitter about Pearson leaving you to join a bigger club
It's nothing about 'not getting the joke'. More to do with not wanting to look like a muppet. The only way I would do it is to laugh at the opposition as if to say 'Little old Hull are beating you 1-0'.
And that's what they are doing. However you clearly use it as a signature in an attempt to mock fans who are effectively mocking themselves. Its a bit like one bloke saying "I can be a complete twat sometimes." and then someone else saying "Ha Ha you said you're a twat."
I use it in my signature because I find it hilarious. I can't not look at it without laughing. Also its there because I lost a bet and I have to have the Hull badge in my sig for the season
Fair enough it's good you take it in the spirit it was intended, but I'm not sure your holding up your end of the bet.
Jobber does seem to receive a lot of grief on here and from away fans - He's actually a really decent bloke - You'd all get on well with him if you ever spoke with him. Shame really, is it because he bangs the drum or because he's overweight - if it's the latter I'll get my coat before I get some of what he gets
Comes across really well on the Phone in as well. He was also the one who started the 'we love you' chant - probably the single best thing atmosphere wise that we've done in the new stadium.
Your talking **** about me andy king Show me where my post was bitter about Nigel Pearson . I think he is a good manager who built a good team at Hull City and a manager that will get LcFc into the play off , maybe even auto promotion this season . I respect NP for building us a far better team then we had when he took over. Use your brain now your a mod. I would be as happy as Larry IF both our clubs are in the top 4 this season and both got promotion . Leicester City are not our arch rivals . It's Leeds I hate and want relegated
Sorry, but it's why the majority come on here. I didn't mean to single out people like yourself as you're not a regular poster on here whereas people like OLM post each day. Like you say I have no problem with Hull and would like to see us finish first and second. I've spoken to Jobber plenty of times and he's class. His sense of humour is brilliant too. Posh away last year he was in the shambles of a room they call the refreshments bar and a woman said to him 'I didn't recognise you with a t-shirt on' and quick as a flash he came out with 'That's what all the ladies say'. Had the bloke behind the counter pissing himself. We need to back that up with new chants IMO. Otherwise you get the 'We Love You' fanatics singing it every 2 ****ing minutes I like the Ben Marshall cover for Dale Cavase. Sounded class against Hull when we first sung it.
I think the whole Anti Leicester thing at Hull will end now. Steve Bruce has a bit of class If there is a player he doesn't want and we make a bid what he deems good enough I reckon he will sell I can't see him agreeing to manage Hull if their owner wanted to be the one pulling strings
If I speak to him, will he stop banging that bleedin' drum, it's really irritating. It's not just you, every club with a drum should be banned from the league, that twat at Pompey is just as annoying. They got relegated because of him........probably.
