Hull City vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[dadams2k11]

I'm slightly concerned that the 'dip sh*ts' at work are in the right, and you can't see it because you're so tired. They go home saying 'this guy at work has lost the plot - he was fine a few months ago, but since having a baby...'

To be fair, the amount of mistakes I have made on this forum the past week leads me to believe it might actually be me that is the dip sh*t.

Team we're playing from Yorkshire-check
Referee for game from Yorkshire- check

Is that right

 

[Hugo Rune]

We've beaten 'Ull once, we can do it again. Just 5 players from that win will start unless CH goes with LuaLua, Baldock or Rosenior. Go Seagulls!

Any chance of a live stream?

Don't think so, not being shown on TV anywhere http://liveonsat.com/daily.php?star...t_yyyy=2016&end_dd=16&end_mm=02&end_yyyy=2016

It's bloody cold up here in Hull. Hope the Spanish players have their thermals with them!

 

[Mancgull]

The Hull City fans in a pub here don't seem to think we are a threat at all. They consider Sheffield Wednesday as the dark horses and we won't challenge. Oh well, we've managed to stay 'under the radar' all season even when we were top! Let's do just that until we sneak into 2nd place on the last game of the season.

If their team is like the fans and doesn't take us seriously, then we definitely will be a threat. Can't see Bruce letting that happen, though - proper manager, with some proper players in his team. So have we, of course, but they have home advantage tonight; think we'll do very well to take anything from this one.

It's a joke we can't watch a game featuring two top 6 championship sides on the tv. thecombined metro population of Brighton and hove + hull is about million people! I would understand if it was rotherham vs brentford.

HULL 1 BRIGHTON 3 WHY NOT EH

 

[GolfingGull]

#BHAFC team v #HCAFC: Stockdale, Bruno, Goldson, Dunk, Calderon; Knockaert, Kayal, Stephens, Sidwell, Murphy; Hemed. #HCFCvBHA


#BHAFC subs v #HCFC: Maenpaa (GK), Rosenior, Crofts, Skalak, Baldock, LuaLua, Zamora

451 it is then. 0-0 suddenly becomes a viable result.

 

[Meade's Ball]

As long as we're a mixture of the adventurous and sturdy, a good line-up. Let's do some underdog walloping!!

Im disappointed it didnt work when we played this tactic in the cup game, i know a total different side but i think if you sit back too much you will lose, we been playing with 2 forwards for last 4 games and won all of them, so why change a winning formula.

 

[GolfingGull]

Some good attacking options on the bench and great to see Rosenior back in

Winning at home to Bolton is one thing, away at Hull is another. CH will have done his homework and figured out the best way to stifle them and hit them on the break. Up to the players to carry out the plan.

Because we're playing a decent team tonight. Going away and playing 4-4-2 is not a clever idea with Calderon at LB. different story with Rosenior or Bong playing IMO.

I think it's been forced on us to a certain extent, what with BZ not being able to do Saturday/Tuesday, Wilson not fit and Baldock only just returning from injury.

Besides, Stephens-Kayal-Sidwell looks a bloody strong midfield three!

 

[Mancgull]

I'm sure that Sidwell will be looking to become our second striker when we break. Seems a pragmatic team selection and we always have the ability to go back to 442 if we go behind.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Makes complete sense going 4-5-1. Let's just hope it works..
