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

[BensGrandad]

Double figures for me 10 offsides for Manu

Shouldnt we be more interested on the possibilty of him

(a) Staying on his feet
(b) getting a shot on target and more importamnt
(c) scoring a goal.

Good for the fringe players get a good run-out but you can't expect them to shine within such a weak team against a stronger Hull side.
Very interested to see how Towell and Manu do. Just hoping this team don't get humiliated today.

Hull have made 7 changes so they have a weaker side as well.

 

[Tarpon]

Richie Towell 12/1 first goalscorer anyone??

A paltry 3 offsides for Elvis

Towell FGS 20/1 B365 & 17/2 anytime...hmmm

Where is the fun in that!

 

[Quinney]

Hoping Towell looks the business today. Surprised Harper not involved, is he injured?

Hull have made 7 changes so they have a weaker side as well.

The only trouble is their "weaker" team looks stronger than ours.

Hull: Jakupovic, Odubajo, Robertson, Davies, Maguire, Huddlestone, Hayden, Taylor, Snodgrass, Aluko, Diomande.

It's all set up now for Manu to open scoring in fifth minute and silence everyone

 

[Ninja Elephant]

Holla, Ince AND Crofts?

Reminds me of Blackpool away under Gus a few years ago, the horrific 1-1 draw which saw Navarro, Dicker and Bridcutt together.

For those outside BBC Sussex transmission areas you can keep tabs on the Elvis offside count by listening via

[perseus]

When are we going to score our next goal in the opponent's net?

 

[patchamalbion]

1-1 Manu last minute marginally offside goal!

just a bit!!!

 

[sir albion]

That's more like our 3rd string although would happily go out of the cup
I'll be shocked if we score with that side and predict 4-0 hull

Very negative...Surely we have youngsters who could play

 

[Over the Hill]

Double figures for me 10 offsides for Manu

That means we will have to have 10 attacks !!!!

 

[HantsSeagull]

aspinall just pointed out no one in starting 11 has scored a goal this season

then they rubbed salt in the wound by playing the commentary of the dagger scoring against Hull in 2013

 

[portlander]

Nothing to lose today. People playing who need a game, should be motivated, and might be trade bait. if we're paying them, they should be able to perform.

 

[goldstone]

Who is the guy Hunt on the bench? What position does he play?

 

[severnside gull]

Nice to have a game where (as long as we don't get properly stuffed) the result isn't going to effect my mood too much.
