First time I saw City was at Boothferry Park, in 1979. Not that I need to prove my credentials to anyone but just so you know: I remember Wally in the Kempton Stand, that guy in South Stand that would shout, "Bloody rubbish Mansfield." And the City coffin being carried down Boothferry Road. My point is if any players or anyone associated with the team read this forum, please know that opportunities like the current position Hull City are in are very rare. To be 6 points clear of 3rd with 3 to play is an incredible opportunity. Please take this opportunity and know what it means for the fans.
Good post. I have even going since 1963/64 season and was part of the coffin protest. I totally agree this is a rare opportunity. Only twice have we been in a similar position under,Terry Neill and Phil Brown,but this is the highest we have ever been in my 50 years of going with only 3 games left. Yet we still have people whining and moaning. Unbelievable!
I am sure that the team are more than aware of what's at stake.......well at least the promotion bonus.....many will want to do it for the club, but not for the fans.....I wish it was different, but that's life.
All clubs have fans capable of this and it basically boils down to their own mental inadequacy. Since I’ve been reading this forum this season after every defeat (despite us still being near the top) some **** has a started a thread moaning that ‘this isn’t promotion form’ or that ‘we’re lucky’ etc. I wonder, do these people reflect upon their kneejerk idiocy in the aftermath, especially when we usually we go on to win the next game? Naturally, I doubt it and I suspect these people are equally moronic in all other aspects of life. As a rule I don’t dislike people for being thick, but when it comes to City, music and politics it does wind me up somewhat.
On a related subject, what happened to the massive flag of the club crest that was passed over people's heads in the big games 2008? Get it out, someone.
If I was offered 3 points for the next match I would take it now.and 5 million quid and fish chips and beans from cave street.
Naive post. Chazz is mates with big Carl and is therefore part of the inner circle. Chazz asks for beans, Chazz gets beans, it really is that simple. Anyone else gets stared out accompanied with the words I have heard on literally dozens of occasion. "We don't do beans" If you hocked a greeny in his face you'd offend him less.
Doesn't the head nodding get you taken into a back room, where there's a selection of branded beans to choose from?
Urban myth or so I'm lead to believe. I even heard that beans with the little pork sausages have been seen to leave Cave Street. It's all just fanciful rumour Bob, anyway I'd best leave it there..... I've said too much already.
This is starting to sound like the butchers on The League of Gentlemen where you ask for the 'special stuff' and only receive it if you are deemed ready.
