What a load of old bollocks and lies. Same old Leeds always cheating! 1-2 City
 
Hull City fans are a lot more confident than they were for the same fixture last season. I must admit, I am not feeling confident this time around, I hate predicting scores but if we can beat you and extend our winning streak then I'll believe this is the year we can actually get promoted.

We beat PNE who were in a play off position 4-0, then lost away to Barnsley who were bottom 3-1.

Leeds or City ?
Nowt in it except home advantage which can also backfire on them with the pressure of the massive expectations from supporters of the Champion of Europe.
Could it be another 'Sheffield Wednesday away' night for the Tigers ?
 
I have a feeling this might be a draw, and I would take that before kick-off. Having said that I think I said that last year and we went on to win. Anything but a loss would be OK by me

How? Because [a] Lincoln had the Riverside development site; and because Hull City Council stuck its nose in and ****ed up negotiations?

When things moved to Lincoln, Lincoln sold the Cottingham Road campus to Hull University and it became Hull York Medical School.

Grosicki seems a bit off at the moment I wonder if they havent offered him a deal yet. We
Will need some goals from other than bowen. A draw will do me with a win on friday.
 
In this game I’d play Bowen up front with Grosicki on the left and Bowler on the right. Leeds will no doubt have spied on us at training and have planned their team around Bowen on the right.

Not surprised.

****ish prices charged by a ****ish club.

Aren't your fans up in arms about the price of tickets Allam charges, hence the 10,000 attendances?

I do agree that the prices we charge away fans is horrendous especially as my S/T averages out about £14 per game plus this is championship football we're talking about.

My Arsenal ticket for our cup game in January is only £15 :emoticon-0102-bigsm

I'd take Bowen in a heartbeat, hope we don't give him as much space as we did last season

Quality player, will score more than his 19 tally of last season

The attendances are more down to the damage done by various ridiculous actions of the owners over the past years, rather than specifically about prices, which have actually just been reduced for most home fans.

Yes I heard Allam had reduced prices recently from four friends of mine who hadn't renewed their season-tickets this season.

They are picking their matches now Hull's performances have improved over the last couple of months
