Hull City v Leeds Utd match thread

One of your dirty cheating players elbowed him in the face.

You were comfortable because Warnock likes playing negative tactics and sitting deep in our own half and defending like that instead of bringing the games to the opposition. It's tiring and we're sick of it but we're not going to see anything different without a manager who's not from the stone age.

 

We're not the dirtiest bunch of cheating ****ers in the league on the basis that I see other teams cheating more with diving and gamesmanship all over the place.

 

Well you see, that's what happens when you get too close to Abdoulaye Faye... (Brown's elbow)

Men that challenge Faye come out of the game as a different person...

Besides, White should have had a red for his lunging two footed challenge on Elmo, Pearce nearly pulled Aluko's shirt over his head and no penalty was given, Varney kept trying to hug Faye, and Norris nearly took Chester's head off

 

Don't be silly. We're still near to the play offs in a league where unpredictability is common ground. Hull were a class above and fair play to a team clearly destined to be around the top come the end of the season.

Why is it that whenever we lose one or two games its always doom and gloom. Yeah it was a **** performance, but things will improve. We'll beat Bolton and those suggesting its the end of the world we'll be talking up playoffs/promotion again.

 

To be honest it would have made no difference if Hull were down to 10 men, the gulf between the teams was so obvious at this moment in time.

 

Cant remeber who it was on here but, he had a good point. We need player to be improving not adding to the team. We need a general in middle of the field who can dictate how we play. Passing and pace into spaces, we have the strikers to finish off chances we need the suppply and for team to work as a unit positivley not negativley.

 

Do you mean White's one footed challenge with his studs down? It was nothing more than a hard tackle, no maliciousness in it and a booking was the correct decision.

 

Our best play is coming from the wings and Warnock is blind to it. He's not setting the team up to take advantage of that. We've not had both Hall and Thomas on the pitch at the same time yet. We need Thomas to be signed in January, and another pacey, tricky winger and to just go for it and make use of those players. If we play with proper wingers and have Aidy White and Sam Byram at the full back positions, with Becchio, McCormack and Somma and one other striker to contend for the attacking positions then we'll rip teams to shreds. I'm tired of it.

 

The season is over because Warnock isn't going to change his strategy because he's clueless to how we play best. The new owners aren't going to sack him and get a positive, forward thinking manager in because Warnock staying was one of their terms in the takeover agreement.

 

I see Bates has still managed to **** you over in some way or another even after selling up! I bet that was his clause upon selling

 

No no, you misunderstand. The new owners made it part of the agreement that Warnock remains employed by the club. GFH-C wanted to keep Warnock, meaning they're not going to sack him.

 

What benefit would they have in putting that in? Sounds like pointless stupidity to me.

 

I still think us Tiger fans can learn an awful lot from the White ****e. We could, for instance , learn how to tackle from behind, grab shirts, niggle and push, fall over at the very presence of an opponent, appeal in unity for a lost cause and cheat our way through 90 minutes. Not 1 Leeds player on show today could have got into our squad never mind the starting 11 and as for Brown - if he was as good at playing football as he is at complaining , pointing and arguing with the ref he would be as good as our reserve team coach driver..............

 

Well exactly. They've a lot to learn about the game. Warnock might have a brilliant CV but he's shown he's not up to the job.

 

Oh give it a rest. Your team, just like every other team I've seen Leeds come up against this season, is rife with gamesmanship. Falling over when they can't get an advantage, staying down to influence the ref, shirt pulling, grabbing, elbowing our players in the face when the ref isn't looking.

Take your "dirty Leeds" spectacles off and take a look at your own team you hypocrite.

 

There's no group of fans like Hull's for overlooking everything their team does in order to chuck about "dirty Leeds" ****e after a match. Elmohamedy (or however it's spelled) recovered surprisingly well after White killed him.

 

Elmo being tackled. The view the ref had which the replay showed from his angle it appeared that the studs were down. The other angle clearly showed his studs were up, even the announcers on the tv said it was a red card. I dont care personally as I didnt think he intended on hurting Elmo and I didnt feel the game was dirty and I certainly didnt think you all played dirty. A yellow card made sense. Bruce said after the game that Elmo will probably not be able to play next game due to that tackle as well as the bump on his calf so I dont see how anyone could say he was faking it. He isnt known for being that type of player.

The elbow wasnt on tv and they had no replays of it. Our team isnt dirty by any stretch. Arent we still the least penalized team in England this year? That might have changed since we got Meyler and Brady who rack up the cards but we are far from dirty. It is sports and people do get elbows and tackles etc. I think if it was really done on purpose Warnock would have had something to say about it in his post game interview as every manager protects his players.

 

Lets be fair about this. Not many if any side in this league would have lived with City today in that mood...Though that said Leeds did seem to help by constantly giving the ball away, not tracking back, overhitting the final ball etc....etc Oh and BTW that 15 of yours is Dogtod.
