Early last year there was a lot of uncertainty amongst the top sides. They've all has a manager for at least a year now. There were quite a few upsets early last season but unless you can call Man U a top side still it's been a lot more predictable this season so far

I could be wrong of course, but I'm not expecting much in those games

1-1. Dawson double. Enough chances to win three games.

Either a 0-0 or 1-0 either way
 
Can't overstate how much we need to win this one.

Really?

It is the third league game of the season, and we have four points already. Surely it's not that important?

No it's not, but it would be very nice to be going into the international break with seven points from three games.

Depends on who they are playing upfront, if is The Beautiful South we win 3-2.  1-1 draw if Fatboy Slim is their main striker.

Our home record is atrocious over the last 8 years, do you think if we filled the stadium Sunday and lifted the roof off the Holte it'd make the slightest bit of difference to how we perform with Lambert as manager??..

I don't think it would.

No. Why do people keep suggesting it's the fans fault.
We have a clueless , tactically inept manager and a team that cannot create or score goals.

I've got a spare Holte End upper (K4) ticket if anybody wants it. Nearest to face value of £35. PM me if you're interested.

Not just nice, it's essential given our run of fixtures all through September and into October!

Hull fact. One of my favourite songs was written in Hull, 'Whole Wide World' by Wreckless Eric.

One of mine too, his search for a woman is like Villa's for a more productive midfielder. I'll volunteer as our Tahiti scout if it helps.
