    Watching it hoping to see some highlights from the game. But seriously, wtf was that?
    Surely there must have been something more than that too show?

    "Brighton took on Hull at the Amrex.....One of the toughest teams away"
    (Shows clip of ball smashing the bar*2)
    The end


    All other games gets commentary and at least 2-3 minutes?! :( + some manager views.

    Is it always like this?

    I'd prefer us to stay under the radar anyway!

    Very much so. It's weird because the game they choose to 'feature' (this week was Derby V Southampton) is always analysed at great depth. They show random passages of play and call it a highlight and then every other game gets 2 seconds.

    After reading the BBC report on the game and the Brighton bias it showed, I was pleasantly surprised by the highlights because they at least showed 2 of our best chances.

    Yep pretty much every week, for the first time in months we got some decent coverage when we played Cardiff I think. Although it's annoying seeing and hearing the same ****e teams covered and bigged up purely on past reputation, I like it as we stay under the radar and people expect us to be worse than we are. Makes a nice suprise when we come to play them :)

    Didn't watch the football league show but this doesn't suprise me, aside form about 4-5 teams in the league the coverage of the other teams is minimal, you have to play one of said 4-5 teams to get a mention and that mention is usually focused on the favoured team. I guess it'd be time consuming giving every team the same amount of coverage but it would be nice if they balanced things out over the season.

    Football League show is a ****ing joke, they should change it to "The Hull City Show" and just show our full 90 minutes. Twice.

    The BBC are so biased it's unreal.

    It's like that for all games, apart from usually 2 or 3 Championship games and then a game each from the other two divisions (if that).

    I think the Championship sides should certainly get more coverage, but what of the other leagues? It's not as if they get any more than the 2nd tier teams do.

    StrovolosJunior#1 was christened in St.Andrews and then received a proper head wetting in the pub next door. Hausfrau thought it irreverent at the time!!
