Hull don't deserve it

[Finchley Seagull]

Hull deserve to go up because they got the most points. It doesn't matter what sort of football you play or what your goal difference is if you have less points. Having said that, they and whoever goes up from the play offs will be strong favourites to come straight back down.

Yes, if we had won a couple more games we might have gone up but all teams can say that. I'm sure Cardiff, Hull and Watford all have games where they should have got something (Cardiff and Watford will certainly feel they should have drawn, or even won, at home to us). At the end of the season, we have done really well to come fourth and we should be pleased with that rather than saying Hull don't deserve promotion and we should have done better.

end of - tin pot club - tin pot city - no idea how they did it - Watford are mugs

Would you be the first to complain if fans of bigger clubs call us tinpot?

Over 46 games they deserve to be way they are.

Hull are good at grinding out results and you need to do that for promotion. So it's well deserved...
Good luck too them!

 

[Poyetry In Motion]

Who cares if Hull deserve it or not? They've got themselves into the Prem fair and square.
All i'm concerned about is not capitulating against the Nigels next Friday. Get back to the Amex with a draw and concentrate on kicking their arse on Monday

 

[SeagullSongs]

Of course they deserve it.

They're coming straight back down though next season, I've never seen a more average team get promoted from any league ever.

Hull are a very average team, shocked that they went up. They'll probably put up a decent fight in the Prem though.

I bet Leicester end up winning the play-ofs

You can't argue with their points total, but at plenty of times over the course of this season, I've found myself wondering how on earth they were up there. They looked mediocre both times we played them, but I'm aware that could have just been a fluke. So I've watched them on TV games- they still looked dull and completely average.

They have no genuine goalscorers, no true flair players, and nobody ever says "You know what? Hull are a really entertaining side to watch". It's amazing.

Of course that's probably going to sound like some sort of bitterness, but it's not meant to be. I just think they're arguably the least impressive side ever to be promoted automatically from the Championship. Certainties for relegation unless they miraculously find a couple of strikers.

It's all very well people complaining about the unfair advantage of Watford's loan signings but where would we be without Mr Bloom's cash. You just have to take your luck where you can.

Since when did we measure football results with a 'deserve o meter'?
