Hull City through and through

Did Hull City fans enjoy it in League One (Division three) when they won
promotion, with crowds of 5,000.


Eh? When they won promotion in 2005-06 their average attendance was a
fraction under 20,000. Lowest attendance was over 14,000.

So attendances not improved much since then.

So funny Hull City fans are seriously thinking they are better the Leeds
United, don't make me laugh.

Enjoy it until next season when we walk the Championship.



Walking along to M62 more like.

Still chanting w.a.c.c.o.e? Hasn't been true of years.

And the league table doesn't lie, except in the case of rule bending Leeds
Utd... living off past glories under the reign of Don Revie, that paragon of
virtue. Was only when he took charge that Leeds becaome something like a big
club. Most of the time before that, Leeds were not much better than Hull City.

Nope can stay like this.

Tell me what rules Leeds United actually broke this season, anything that
other teams haven't done in Administration.

If it wasn't for that cheating FA docking points we would be 12 points
clear.

When did Hull City ever win anything worthy of the word?

Next season will be consolidating in the Championship the year after will be
a promotion to the Premier League where Hull City are never going to go.

Good result for City at the weekend.

It doesn't take a brain surgeon to work out why, in the days when they
were a big team, Leeds United and their supporters were the most
reviled of the 92.

Given that Leeds have now won 15 out of 19 league matches
I think they can pretty much win under any conditions!

The FA must be really fuming over Leeds Utd's success this season.
The points deduction was supposed to act as a ball and chain,
possibly even leading to a further relegation. Instead Leeds have
simply shrugged it off and might even be champions!

I shall be highly tickled if they are. The financial misdeeds
and incompetence of the management, which have been outrageous, have
been visited unfairly on the players, who have responded
tremendously. I have no reason to favour Leeds, being a Chelsea fan
for over 50 yrs, and at one time loathed them heartily, as many did,
and the 1970 Cup Final, probably the dirtiest ever (Chelsea were
hardly blameless) being a tremendous result for me. But that was
then; this is now and Leeds have suffered enough. I hope they win
promotion. FWIW I thought the 1992 team was pretty good, too.

They didn't exit administration properly.

Quote from the Yorkshire Post:
"HMRC, which was owed £7.7m when Leeds went into administration on May 4, went
to court only an hour before a 28-day deadline for creditors to challenge the
controversial company voluntary arrangement (CVA) was due to pass.

As a result, KPMG responded by putting the club up for sale in a move which
effectively bypassed the existing CVA. Mr Bates won the ensuing auction and has
since resumed control of the club which nevertheless suffered a 15-point
penalty for exiting administration outside the normal CVA procedure."

Do you deny any of that?

If it wasn't for that cheating FA docking points we would be 12 points
clear.


The FA administer the rules, they gave the deduction according to those rules,
which had not changed. Therefore Grandad Ken knew what they were and tried to
play fast and loose with them.

Whats that got to do with it? Reading haven't won anything worthy of the word
and they are a biggger club at the moment.


Next season will be consolidating in the Championship the year after will be
a promotion to the Premier League where Hull City are never going to go.

We're not going to go to the Premiership? Who would want to? I would rather be
debt-free first.

I would like to apologise to everyone else on the group but this person, who
chooses to remain anonymous, got up my rather ample nose! Its a local thing
around here....

Hey, don't bring me into it! Anyway, I kept quiet when my boys,
Scarborough, lost 10 points and eventually folded as a club! That's
life and they deserved it. Load of crooks running football, load of
prima donnas playing it and load of mugs paying to watch it.
Now, let's get back to uksw

Even now their fans aren't that popular - just ask any Ipswich Town
fan who visited towards the end of last season and effectively sent
Leeds down and there was a 30 minute pitch invasion of angry yobs.
Very sad.
