We are third in the league and could go second with our game in hand. We have won 5 of our last 6 league games. We have two twenty goal a season strikers (real ones, not like Beckford. Although surely we need three? ) We have the best defence in the division. We have a youth system that is capable of producing a player that would attract the interest of Manchester United. We haven't been forced to change the colour of our kits, our badge or change our slogan to 'Fire and Passion'. We've got over a third of the season left to push into the top two. So calm the **** down and think about whether or not things are really that bad, whether two defeats on the back of a six game winning run really deserve a reaction like this, where prior to this being topped the only threads on the first page seem to be negative or people being negative about people being negative. We're incredibly lucky to be in the position we are in, most would have been ecstatic with a top six finish at the start of the season. So just enjoy being in a position where dropping down to third and losing a couple of games in a row is 'the end of the world' because it's been almost ten years that we've been in a worse position.

Are you even trying to win this cat argument?

What a crumpet that poster is. Nothing like being bitter. He's not really wrong though is he? I'm sure that if they brought someone like Billy Davies back, who like him or not, built a pretty strong side there, then they would be challenging in and around the top six. That poster is just recognising that we're where we are because we got a good manager and let him build a side, not because we spent however much money, or because we have better fans or any other rubbish like that, it's because we've got the right people in charge of the football team and recruiting players into the football team. I find it difficult to disagree with anything he has said.

Because it's not just a Hull board, there's a Leicester section which I assume he is moderator of.

Would be cool if you didn't talk about people who don't act so hypocritically like they're freaks though.

There you go Oz saved you 10 minutes.

A bout a million 'I wish' posts to stream in in 3...2...1...

I can never work out if this is the animal rights thread or MattP's food diary.

You know they can't hear you on Foxes Talk, Corky...

You're not being serious... please tell me you're not being serious...

It's not.

If only there was a thread for this kind of thing.

Congratulations.

On the twelfth day of Christmas Nigel Pearson sent to me, Twelve Tonne Jobber’s Drumming Eleven Falcons Flying Ten lads Morgan’s marshalling Nine Marshall worldies Eight blind officials Seven Waggy woodworks Six goals v. Ipswich Five Ormonroyd’s Four Schmeichel stops Three League Cups Two Beckford scuffs And Anthony in the Bastille. No? Fine.

Has more of a ring to it.

Our strikers are good enough, our midfield is strong enough. I'm going to wait in here until the reactionaries have calmed down.

I honestly don't remember every post you've ever made, but so you don't get the hump that I haven't responded I should point out that this post has been acknowledged. You only said that to get + rep . (It worked, +1)

Congratulations on one sensible post, maybe in another 4 years we might get a second.

Sounds just like you.

Well then you're obviously better placed to comment than those of us who eat it relatively regularly.
