The most annoying thing is the Premiership fans at work, you tell them about your weekend and how good of an away day it was, your still proper buzzing from it all and show them the pics and vids and they just look at you gone out, , ,they just dont get it!
Oh and they see the scoreline on Sky Sports and say 'you was lucky' or something on them lines.
Ah well, , much rather be a Town fan then an Arsenal , Chelski, Liverpool, Moan Utd , etc any day of the year.

There's a guy at work who has 2 season tickets for Hull and i heard him on the phone today to his mate saying how good a result it was for "us" on Saturday against QPR. I said to him "what do you mean us, you're not a Hull City fan or even from Hull and you can't surely get a proper buzz from watching a team you don't really support". He said to me, "well it's better than watching that shite at BP". Nah, no way.

Speaking to a Liverpool fan earlier told him about almost 1000 of us down at Barnet going mental for the whole game and his reply was so what we will have 40,000 at the weekend, , but the difference is it means so much more to us, , I actually believe WE got them 2 goals at the end, , they were for US

Under an hour to get to Norwich,

I could never support them and I have lived down here for 28 years.

Classic buffer face, they are waiting for their heart to send a message to the brain but that vacuum where their soul used to be, prevents that message from getting there, hence the buffer face, which is also proof that glory hunters have no soul.
Buffer face! Love it, , spot on for the plastic fans shouting at the telly on a Saturday afternoon or shouting at the screen down their local boozer, ,

To use a Glasgow phrase, the whole thing on Saturday was "pure dead f***ing brilliant"
I've watched the highlights over and over again and still get a tingle watching them. Maybe the rubicon has now been crossed between the players and fans in terms of how they react in fron of the crowds at the really big games. It could, just could, give us the impetus to go and win say 90% of the rest of our games and get automatic promotion.
Keep believing, keep the faith, UTM.

Weve always had decent away support. Its not suprising the team do well away from home The thing here is the distance town fans had to travel. What was it, 3.5hrs? I remember Leicester took 6000 to Sheff Weds when they were in the third division which was impressive I'd say Norwich had one of the most vocal supports Ive seen at BP. The geordies were good but Im sure Norwich came up on a cold Tuesday night when we were relegated under Laws. They were bloody loud. Mind you, they were top and they beat us 1-4 I think....

| Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong Update: I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly |

That could be the reason our home form is poor, The lads do not stand behind the goal and sing their hearts out like at Barnet, Lets change that from tomorrow and start singing from the off, The players do respond to a loud crowd backing them, So lets hear it for the boys !!!!!!!!!!!!!
