    For me it's not having to watch the crap programme on channel 5. Just watched the last one to compare to the Sky version and spotted 4 mistakes in the commentary
    Robertson called Robinson
    Huddlestone having a header cleared off the line
    Clucas signing from Mansfield
    Us having a 5 year wait to be promoted last time we went down
    And they are just those I noticed probably loads more
    Much rather have MOTD which its bias even if it means waiting until the end of the programme

    Each time we get relegated, we come back and the opportunity is better than before.
    We've turned another page and get another chance to not **** it up. This time we'll get it right.
    Being hated/envied by all the teams who consider themselves way bigger and better than us. Leeds, Sheffield, Derby, Villa, Forest etc
    Another chance to work together with the council, the COC2017 etc to fire up this city and stop the fractious infighting so that everyone is singing from the same hymnsheet.
    The hope that City will change hands and be led by someone with vision and integrity who will rebuild the burnt bridges, and get the missing thousands back, and the KCOM rocking once more.
    The chance to get a hat trick of consecutive wins at home v Liverpool.
    The PL flag flying outside the KCOM stadium again.

    We had a run of 10 from 14 games being midweek towards the end of this season so it's certainly no different in the championshit.

    Not seeing Hillsborough on FIFA.



    If you actually want a serious answer, I'd say media attention on our protests. The red card vs membership scheme, for example, would have had much greater attention and therefore condemnation. Another plus is we should trouser enough money to return Allams' "kind loan".

    My girlfriend, of nearly 2 years, who i have known for ages, said to me this week that she thought Hull was on the coast. She actually thought I was winding her up when I kept telling her it wasnt. She even said she thought it was known as Hull by the Sea <laugh>

    I know, technically it isnt on the coast, but thats how I describe it.
    mind you, I was looking at the BBC weather maps on my Sky Text...
    and you have to select an area to look at to find a detailed picture and to my surprise we arent on the North East map like Id have thought.
    Were on the East map. that includes places like Norwich.
    strange.

    How far is Hull from the North Sea coast? Must be about 15 miles is it?

    yeah but describing it to Johnny Foreigner in Texas, its easier just to say "its on the coast" than to get technical.... I dont wanna have to spend time telling them what an estuary is..........
