Just back from the game...

Looking forward to Burnley on the next road trip, excellent summary Notters

No mention on number of away fans, guesstimate at between 950-1100

around 600 according to this

From Boothferry To Wembley: Hull City 1 Brighton 0

I find that very hard to believe.

Worth a read.

I don't know which was the worst miss, Barnes heading against the post against Swindon or Macca not getting high enough (or the cross too high) and clipping the bar against Hull. Conversion rate for these sort of chances is about 50%.

Thanks for the info from those who were there. From the commentary on the radio, it seemed as if it was the same old same old, with chances missed, but it would seem the level of performance has improved greatly. REALLY looking forward to Tuesday night now

947 away fans yesterday, would have been more but 100 or so were stranded on a delayed Hull Trains service

over a thousand travelled then,that seems more like it

...and Barnes?.... how did that plucky little bleeder contribute to our glorious defeat

Not quite there were periods after the initial 'gold' phase last season when we weren't having many shots let alone chances

Yeah the blog is so one sided but there again it was written by a Yorkie.

Loads of Albion fans were on the Hull Trains service that kept them waiting onboard at Kings Cross for 45 minutes before finally announcing the journey was cancelled. The 947 away following was confirmed by [MENTION=3896]PC BHA[/MENTION] aka @suspol on Twitter.

Great to hear some positives from people who were actually there. Shut some of the muppets up hopefully!

Had a good game, really should of put away a chance that Dicker chipped over the defenders to him.
If the goal posts were a little wider we would of scored 4 goals , oh well at least we created a load of chances if we keep this up they will soon go in

947 of us apparently mate

often got back to cover for Bruno when he made runs forward, and he cleared one of Hull's efforts off the line

 

[Sheebo]

Just watched highlights and I dunno if they're edited to show more of our chances or whatever but even so it seems we played really well. That's made me feel so much for positive. We just seemed unlucky.

CMS seemed to play very very well.

 

[Sheebo]

How was CMS's first touch? Has it improved?

Try being a bit positive - let's talk about the present... He played very well by ALL accounts...

This seems to be the general opinion, now lets get the whole of the Amex rocking and change our rivalry from, West Stand v North Stand to East Side v West Side, this way we may just double the noise level and become the 'Noisiest Stadium' in the country, now wouldn't that intimidate the opposition!!!

Now why hasnt this set of Barnes detail been discussed before now,... it was all CMS this and CMS that.... no mention of Barnes misses.
