Hull Fred

I thought Mullarkey was excellent and he loves doing the chop. I really like Efete but I think Mullarkey will start the season at RB. The midfield 3 of Khouri, Clifton and Conteh looked very good, offering lots of balance. As for the comments of Conteh blowing, Khouri and Clifton have been under the management of Hurst since December 2020 but I don't see a reason why Conteh won't become as fit as them.

Mullarkey was decent and Wilson looked ok. Didn’t realise Vernam was playing initially, Hunt looked ok, neither keeper looks any better than each other which could be a good thing.

First game or whatever it was had a lot more flow but was chopped down in its tracks.

Have to say that the format ruined what could’ve been decent given the crowd. It felt like a public training session. The result is irrelevant in pre season, we know that, but it just seemed to lack something to engage with.

Pre-season matches are like playing poker for play money...it's the same game but (inevitably) lacks the same excitement.

This is how I feel whenever I watch a football game that isn't Grimsby

The laws of the game state that a match must be two equal halves (I’m aware they like to intercourse about with the laws but I reckon we’d have heard about this change). Therefore, Hull actually won 1-0 and 1-1 respectively…

They go through on aggregate…

It seems the commentary is being done from the gantry so it's incredibly windy. Sounds like earthquakes are happening  

Decent enough quality video though

I enjoyed watching the game on Mariner TV; and although as said it was very windy on the gantry, but the filming etc was excellent; and I don't know his name, but I like the commentator, who I have heard before on replays of games.

It must have been hard for him up there identifying all the new players, especially as he said the numbers on the back of the Town players shirts were not very distinctive from that height.

Obviously in the first major pre-season game, there were quite a few misplaced passes, but he was never over critical; as I sometimes find JT to be; and I liked his self deprecating humour, which hurts no one.

Anyway I saw quite a lot of very encouraging things for the season. UTM

The club's own John Moore was the commentator and the filming was provided by a streaming company that Hull City chose.

Always loved Johns, and his mates commentary back in the day,
