I saw some footage on twitter/x of someone being assaulted in Milan. There were loads of comments from Americans saying 'and that's why you need guns' implying it's stops such behaviour and expressed shock at the violence. Lunatics.

I get what you say in terms of his ability to strike a ball but he showed in the Fulham game that he doesn't need to cut in (it's not like his delivery is good from the right) but also he does regularly come inside from the right so I'm not that sure that stands up. He's quite unconventional our...

That one should have been earlier in the series from what I heard but due to the sensitive nature/prosecution etc had to be delayed. We all need to be aware of how dangerous teesside is. We are top of all the wrong league tables, crime, murder, alcoholism drugs. The recent gazette reporting of...

The thing is most of Clarke's games have come without Hackney in the team who is key to us playing out from the back and must make things a lot easier than when it's O'Brien and Barlasar. Clarke is very brave on the ball but as he's a bit 'Robbie Mustoe' (ungainly) and gives the impression he's...

I was told a while ago £15000 per week was our ceiling. There's players pre that structure like Howson and Paddy on more but players since 15. I your head for a high level footballer you think that's low but it's 60k per month, that's mind blowing, that's 2 years wages for me and I'm...

It's a strange one that he never plays on the left under Carrick especially as he likes Forrs on the right. I remember his debut was on the left opening game at Fulham a few seasons ago and he was a game changer and also remember him playing left wing back away at Coventry where he did well...

If someone had said Jamiroquai I would have been surprised until I watched this a few weeks ago

Risk obviously increases when you don't have your best players on the pitch. While we've had our struggles at times we've done really well considering our injuries this season and when you look at how the top teams are trying to throw it away you can't help wonder what could have been if we'd...

Most definitely a (y), but we have to realise with injuries and poorer players in the team (or players who lack that particular ability) that we can't do it all of the time or even every game. Carrick knows that hence why we saw more pragmatic approaches in games such as Leicester, however...

I think at the time when watching it on tv O'Brien seemed to be open to receiving the ball but either Dieng didn't deliver it with enough pace or he didn't really want it and was on his heels or both. I think a good leader at that point should be aware that tactically Hull have changed things...

Just watched the inside the match day from Hull. Notice anything about our first goal? Dieng plays pretty much the same ball to O'brien that he does for Hull's 2nd goal. O'Brien wants it, plays it to Clarke, Engel, Lath goal. Hull's second O'Brien shows for it but doesn't make it his and...

He's an essential player for us currently but he's nowhere near as effective without Crooks playing close to him.

But at other points in the season we were bottom of that league. Possibly twice.

That's an awful argument after the first paragraph. I think Engel's been poor but I'm open minded that he might come good next season. He and Giles are poor defenders but Giles was way ahead in attacking ability and his effect on the team. He was hugely instrumental in our success last season.
