I’m feeling confident tonight, a decent pre match light show then a 2-1 win

I’m feeling pessimistic tonight, a tin pot pre match show then a 2-1 loss

Onwards and Upwards. COYY

1-0 win, we are due a clean sheet and a goal from an unlikely player, so Sam Long overhead kick from the halfway line.

 

[Brahma]

Question is which Will Finnie will turn up?

The decent one, or the one we had at Bristol City Away? He's a regular man in the middle, this is the fifth time we've had him since DEC 29th 2023.

The man who gave Bristol the 3 points.

After the last few games, its hard to see anything other than an away win...

What I would give for a fully fit 11 this evening!

Injuries are killing us. What a shame.

 

[Berliner]

Can see a goalless draw tonight, which helps nobody.
Need to be well set up and start on the front foot.

If we're supportive and positive in the stands then the Hull fans may well turn on their team.

No more tin pot than our actual atmosphere at times.

So much has stopped working recently, so throw a cat amongst the pigeons, make some changes and shake things up!



Can’t keep doing the same things over and over again, when it’s not working, and we’re even resorting to playing players out of position in order to keep flogging the same dead horse.

Sometimes a complete change wakes everyone up, and yields a revelation!

I don’t want to see another lineup with no outright wingers, that leaves Harris isolated through the middle, Tyler bombed out wide and out of position, and a static midfield in front of Josh.

4231 is a repulsive formation and too negative, and we don’t have the players available for a 433 or 4141.

But we do have the perfect players available for a 352 so give it a try!

Des needs to show some creativity, innovation and a bit of flexible out of the box thinking tonight.

An absolute MUST WIN game!

COME ON YOU YELLOWS!!

 

[The Voice Of Reason]

Either play a straight forward 2 up front or Scarlett starts

 

[TailsWeWin]

A messy 1-1. Nobody happy.

 

[Orkney Islands Yellow]

You heard the man, let's be loud and right up for this!

 

[ECYellow]

1-1. We will not want to get beat and neither will they.

Hoping the lights go out on the light show.

That's a bit harsh. Our atmosphere since March at home has been top notch.

Three points tonight.

Listen to the Dub.
It is likely that Hull fans will be suggesting that it is hard to see anything other than a hone win...

 

[WRox]

Hopefully go three at the back so the team makes some actual sense. Be more direct with two strikers and take some pressure off Harris.

Hull’s whole system is built around beating the press which will be even easier for them than it was for Swansea if we don’t change things. Three at the back, then watch Tyler and Idris make the difference in broken play from midfield.

I'm feeling confused tonight, blinded by the lights, then a 1-1, no 2-2, no 1-1, noo, ah f**k it,
