Morning all. Just started a match thread on our Board so feel free to pop acroiss and comment. Cheers!
I massively agree with this post, although I think you need to remember that we Saints have come up through the leagues recently, so we know more than most. Which is why I can put my smug hat on and say I thought you'll be fine for a while now. You're in a similar place to us last season
I don't know if this has been posted before: http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/story-20047925-detail/story.html?
Yes, well done Osvaldorama - I checked back on your own forums "Who will go down?" post. You speak the truth! You picked us to stay up back in August. I'm tipping a 2-0 win for City, which I've posted on your site.
Sometimes I manage to forget just how much a clueless muppet Swanny is. Not that there's a problem, whenever I do he comes up with some sore of ****e to make sure I remember.
im going 2-0 saints , or 0-0 / 1-1 .......haha . Hull are a good team , doing well and it really could go any way , there are no easy premier league games , (although man city probably enjoyed playing norwich last week ) .......I have to be honest though and feel we are the better team , and on our form this season i dont think that it is arrogant at all predicting a home win . I am more than aware there are many arrogant saints fans (every club has them ) but reading back , i have to agree that looking at the fixtures both pre season and now and if saints really are aiming for those European places that they talk of then I cant disagree that Hull at home is a game that we should be aiming for nothing less than 3 points , thats my opinion im sure many will disagree , but I mean that with no disrespect at all ......
There's no disrespect expecting saints to win, i expect them to win, they should win. Every team (barring maybe palarse and that **** in the red & white stripes) should really be looking to beat anyone outside the big 6 at home.
I think majority of City fans are thinking if we get anything at your place on Saturday, it'll be a fantastic result. There's not a lot to go on- we're a goodish team, we'll hopefully compete, but we lack things in certain areas (strikers). You never know something might just click, like it did at Newcastle earlier this season. On the other hand, we might have a shocker.
Oh and just to clarify on what I said about you guys being dead certs for relegation, that was before the transfer window was open in the summer. I wasn't just looking at the name "Hull" as all teams (very much us last season!) struggle when they come up. I didn't mean it as a slant against you guys, think you'll definitely finish comfortably mid table.
We seem to be playing in blue quite a lot, I thought there was a limit on how many times you can wear your away shirt? Our home kit doesn't clash with Saint's home shirt, so why have we opted for a kit that has red and white in it, when playing a team who's home kit is red and white stripes?
What is all this squit about an 'Away' strip? I thought it would only be used if the away club's normal kit clashed with the opponent's kit? Why did it change, and when?
Good. No reason to risk him with an International break to follow. Get him ready for the Palace game which is more important. Plus why change last weeks team ? They did well and deserve another go. Stop hissy fitting. All teams have to do without star players now and again.
here's a southampton blogger underestimating us. despite making a big show of lots of numbers to make his view look scientific, he plays down that huddlestone's performance score (whatever that is) is 20 above lallana's, and ignores that not chelsea, spurs, man city or everton or anyone else has scored 3 against us and that southampton haven't yet scored 3 in a game and predicts a 3-0 home win. he's in for a surprise.
