3-1 to Bournemouth, at no point in the article does he mention city in any shape or form, what a first class twat.
From the archives: 'Interestingly, the last time these two faced each other came in a League One fixture in 2005, a stat which illustrates just how far these two football clubs have come in such a short period of time. Hull won that day away in Bournemouth, a 4-0 victory with goals coming courtesy of Ryan France, Stuart Elliot’s double and Damien Delaney. In fact, the last time the Cherries managed to claim a win over Hull came way back in December 1995 when the two sides met in the old Division Two.'
I remember on the day of our first PL game vs Fulham, Stelling put him on the spot to ask if he could name any of our players other than Windass and he couldnt. He's paid to know these things. The twat.
I'm not bothered about his predicition but he is an arse. He's essentially paid because he's the town drunk. Paid to be laughed at.
Hmmm the old division 2? That is the championship right? Which was called Division 1? What day is it?
two points can be discerned from this. 1. a southern based journo/ex footballer thinks unfashionable northern clubs should know their place and stay in the relegation places. 2. These aforementioned pundits seem unable to realise that MF is a better manager than fatty Bruce. I guess that the fact that we acquitted ourselves very well until we went down to 10 men, doesnt seem to register. Football is a results business, the results under SB were dire in PL. Under MP, I am hopeful.
Merson places every team into one of three categories a) a top team b) a top,top team c) a top, top, top-top team
Merson's history shows when it comes to football predictions he doesn't get right. Didn't he lose close 7m.
