It seems likely, there's a reason why winning runs seldom go on this long. They looked beatable against us and against a young, mediocre chelsea side. And now the pressure (let's face it, they had nothing to lose up until the game against us) is on them it's going to be much harder to sustain the standard they've set.

It couldn't have been that bad as i have no recollection of it. If you want refs that blow up at every tug or push, best of british to you. personally, the fewer calls the better is how i like my officials.

Used to rehearse in the room next to them, and danced with Jarvis on the same dance floor that's featured in disco 2000 - them were the days. Seen them tonnes but i don't imagine they'll come to norway.

I have various music projects, some old band stuff (brit pop era), some singer/songwriter stuff and my synth/electronica project. Get very few listens for any of it, but the synth stuff is particularly hard to get heard as i have no idea where to promote it as i actually know very little about that scene. It's not you average repetitive stuff, more inspired by prog rock type synth stuff. Would be great to get some feedback, or if any one has any tips about this genre. https://skfs.bandcamp.com/

Allowing a bit of shirt pulling doesn't make him 'awful'. Especially if he calls it the same for both teams. Considering how bad the other PL refs have been, i think i'm happy to give Tierney a 'pass' - at the end of the day, he didn't do anything to make the game about him.

This certainly is crazy - even though we have scored more goals than any other team in the football league and have one of the highest shot conversion rates - our finishing is really bad.

Leeds seem to have gone quite strong, hopefully that might impact them in their derby this weekend.

My collection, around 1300, i believe.

Well it just seems an odd conclusion to come to based on how well we actually played in the two games you mention (both home supports were deadly silent until the last 10 minutes), and disregarding the fact that we've not just been decent but outstanding for the vast majority of away games. let's face it they did nothing against 10 men for 35 minutes, it wasn't exactly us wilting under the fearsomeness of their home support, rather just that we wilted through being knackered. Not sure why you think cov are such a powerhouse that our form would inexplicably go out the window. I mean there's glass half empty, but this is like not having a glass at all.

Well, no. You can't prove that we're shit away from home by accepting that we've got the best away record of all 92 clubs. It just doesn't work like that. We've played away 22 times in all competition and won 16, the games we've lost were to boro (a worldie free kick), coventry (held on for 80 odd minutes with ten men), liverpool (with our reserves, they are also quite good) and Leeds (lucky deflections) - explain to me again how we can't handle playing in front of away fans?

Don't you mean 'Phillip'? what a pretentious twat. And it's a fair observation - how he's playing in the prem is beyond me. Poor man's Ormondroyd.

I like that he offers something that no one else really offers -carrying the ball through the middle. I think tonight he suffered because he never seemed to have anyone with him and then just getting stuck

Despite having the best away record in all four leagues, and having now beaten a near full strength PL team?

I think some people on here over-estimate the quality in the bottom half of the prem - i mean this is a team that recently went undefeated winning six from seven, against a severely reduced city side.

OPTA ranking gave it to Jakob.

Hopefully til game 46.

nah, one more game and then thump em at wembley.

If yunus had finished the way vesty did, he'd have scored

Especially as we aren't always brilliant against the press and bournemouth, apparently, are one of the best pressing teams in the prem. I know stoly struggled but he's no hermansen, and raiky is no winks.

I'm not sure my supermarket accepts them.

Thought he was alright tonight. No 'bad' decisions, and a lot of tactical fouling that he had to punish,

I have a travellers cheque from 2003 for 50 dollars. NO idea what to do with it.

Whilst i appreciate you've looked into this deeper than me, i'm afraid i'll still have to trust that the club have a plan for us not going up - given that the odds on an immediate return with a totally untested manager must have been pretty high. If an immediate return was an absolute necessity, surely they'd have played (theoretically) safer by going for someone like farke or scott parker? Also, since summer of 2022 they've been obsessively cautious about FFP, why would they suddenly have gambled everything on having to go straight back up, after being so parsimonious in 2022 and the recent transfer window? I'm sure they're living on the edge and that if we don't go up, then next season we could be right back to the start, that we may even end up down for a few years. But predicting economic doom seems a little excessive.

This is true, and even then we still created a ridiculous amount of chances. The reason we lost that game has nothing to do with hull as Iancognito suggests (certainly not that they worked out how to beat us), but everything to do with us misfiring.

If a team allow their opposition to have 21 shots, that's, by any standard, really bad and not what you would expect from a team that have 'figured out' their opponent. That we only had 2 on target says nothing about Hull's tactics. If they'd figured us out they'd have nullified our attack, which clearly they didn't . As for figuring out that "attacking was a better option than parking the bus." - that's not figuring a team out, that's just a game plan that may or may not work - other teams have came at as way more than Hull did and still not won. Besides, they didn't come out 'attacking' they had 35% of the ball and just 7 shots, also this (below) is their heat map - hardly the picture of team coming out all guns blazing. They parked the bus and risked the odd counter which resulted in a lucky goal, whilst relying on our finishing being atrocious - hardly a masterplan of 'figuring out'
