Hull City match thread

0-0 good result against a championship team

Still 0-0?

Good result, decent game, and plenty of positives!

Quoted from carrot top

now now, lets not be negative. You must have different ears anyway

I'm not being negative you melon. It wasn't an opinion. It was a fact based on what I heard for that particular period of the game.

Touchy aswell. You'll fit in well on here

I think you were the one being touchy with your little comment. Let's have it right.

They've just spent 2 mill on a striker . 0 0 is a good result ffs !!

Sounds like we did well overall. Result is probably academic, but it's got to give us confidence going into the start of the season to compete with a championship team. Sounds like there were quite a few individual 'positives' too.

Hurst post match interview:

Very good game, close match, good crowd, delighted with a clean sheet.

Fleming been training at another club, just came in tonight for us, did well seen as he hasn't been with us, did very well. Pleased and will have a chat after the game.

GK is a priority for us, Mckeown needs competition to push him on.

Also need a centerback and maybe a wide player.

Fleming ticks most of the boxes we are looking for in a keeper. Potentially an obvious stumbling box is finances, limited funds left to bring in players and center back is more of a priority in terms of budgets.

Mckeown is fine, but more benificial to give Fleming 90 mins.

Still exploring centerbacks, talking to free agents but ones we are talking too are looking for teams higher up the pyramid, if they don't come off hopefully they may be available for us.

Hearn got a tight calf should be training again on Monday.

Cook and Pearson did well for us tonight, both did well against good opposition. Keeping a clean sheet against Championship opposition was a big plus, and we don't see many teams we won't score past next season so keeping clean sheets is a good thing.

Don't know on formations yet, no decision on it, despite what people say. 4-4-2 tonight to see Cook and Pearson together in a front two.

Southwell, too early to think about loaning him out, want 4 strikers fit for every game, so far last two games one striker has been unfit, so Southwell is a vital part and is doing well.

Want to win against Scunny, its a cup game, am sure Scunny want to win too. Need winning habit in pre-season, will be another good test.

Summer has so far gone according to plan apart from not getting a CB yet. Still a few things to work on, but still a while to go before start of season.

No interest in Liam Hearn, or if there is we (the managers) don't know about it, and believes if it was going to happen he would have gone by now. Expect him to be here at start of season unless a silly offer comes in which is unlikely. 2 years left on his contract. Hopefully he has a good start to season and then there probably will be interest in Jan, but that will be a good thing as it means he is doing well.

Why is there no mention of this game on the beeb, just Donny result then next up Scunny? And why the fck have they recorded the Donny game as 2-4? Idiots. So we've lost narrowly to an L1 side and drawn with a Champs side, but now it just looks like we were hammered by Donny & that's it.
