Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

:D Yep confirmed as been the live match on 5live :D so if your not going tune in :)

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Unfortunately it doesn't appear to be on BBC5Live (Yeovil v QPR) or 5Live Extra (Gasheads).
just had an update..."Stanley showing too much respect"!

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Even Radio Humberside online have Grimsby v Barrow!! Probably due to online bans on most live commentary on bbc radio

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Obviously common sense has prevailed and 5Live now seems to be coming from Whamland:)

Come on the redssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Bless 'em - sounded like our boys gave it everything & you can't ask for more than that. Well done lads, just hope they've not knackered themselves out for Saturday - our annual 3 points await us :)

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Its the hope that gets you :(

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Great performance against a class side that played in premiership, the lads can feel rightly proud of that display and need fear no-one in div2, KTF.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

If displays like that get proper publicity and don't attract more folk,sod all will imho.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

A really enjoyable game tonight played by both teams in the right spirit sad to lose on penaltys but that,s just a lottery all our lads played well tonight but special praise from me is for Tom Davies what a find could prove to be one of our best centre backs yet really good solid fast across the ground and excellent in the air and no panic when in possesion of the ball. Roll on 3pts Saturday.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Great effort from the Reds!.... Against a Hull side full of well-paid "stars".. The Shrimps lost AGAIN !!...Life is good !, particularly for FA19 who scooped the massive 50/50 Draw tonight..
( which goes to prove that you can be lucky and good looking too !).

Saturday should be a cracking game... See you there ???.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

I listened to the entire match on 5 live. Then watched the pens live on Sky sports News. Excellent entertainment, and Stanley so unlucky. Atmosphere from the Stanley fans came across superbly on the Radio and the commentators mentioned it several times.

They did also make the point that Only about half of the crowd where home fans though. Such a shame that only a 1,000 or so will turn out in Accy to see game against opposition like Hull City.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

So proud of the lads tonight for a great footballing performance. No hoofing the ball forward but cool, precision passing starting from Mooney's throw outs. I'll bet Steve Bruce lost a few pounds in sweat tonight! I only have 1 niggle, in that I just don't get Coley's refusal to give Morgan any game time in 120 minutes in which Billy Kee wasn't pulling up any trees. maybe he was saving Billy for the penalty shoot out..............oh hang on!!!!!!:rolleyes:

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

A great match in most parts, we rode our luck at times but in fairness Hull did not seem to be a championship side, The penalties were a cruel blow but a fair way to end it. we must get our communication sorted out. too often we had two Stanley players going for the same ball. I am afraid I did not agree with the man of the match. I thought piero deserved it. I believe the radio pundits chose Matt crooks. overall we gave a good account of ourselves.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Wasn't Josh's dad the match sponsor? Young Windass isn't quite as good as he thinks he is. Too many wasted set pieces where you just know he is going to have a blast rather than trying a training ground move. Maybe we don't have any?

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

I agree shame about the home turn out but it does,nt surprise me a real shame cause I think Accy and John and Jimmy could have something special with this team this season.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

They are not. Those were nearly all last season's Premier League players.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Envy your attendance there tonight Cashy. As Larry says, 5 Live comms sang Accy praises and lamented on low local support. Needs local rags to do a job for us in tempting folks to the Wham. Been long exiled myself and seems that from '62 the local populous switched their allegiance to Rovers or Clarets. A long road back.
Anyway, nuff of that for tonight, gotta be an outstanding performance - well played lads - give Morecambe a mauling on Saturday.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

A great performance by the Stanley boys tonight. Maybe if we'd won the toss to take the penalties towards the Clayton End things would have turned out in our favour? Anyway, to take a recent Premiership team to extra time then penalties is no mean feat!:smoky:

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Really enjoyed the game tonight and a clean sheet after ninety minutes just shows how well we defended.
We seemed to start with 4-4-2 with two wide men and I feared we would be opened up at will,I was wrong as it gave crookes and Barry more space and time in the middle and both were excellent,although huddlestones lack of mobility helped !!!
Our back four were young,big and quick and with massive desire to win,there's going to be plenty clean sheets this season as there are top lads waiting in the wings for any dip in form.
Exciting times once we get used to how Coley wants us to play.
Wasn't a total loss tonight as I walked away with £208 from the 50/50 draw 😀😀😀

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

:) Cracking display by the Reds, bit waist full in front of goal first half, thought Josh should have hit the back of the net after good work from Piero with only the keeper to beat. Ref missed loads of handballs one in the area which was deffo a pen. But shouldn't detract from the boys to night :) well done more of the same against the Shrimps...

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Congratulations! Your winning number was 67971 - just so Cashy knows :)

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Terrific entertainment last night with some very good football on show. The lads can be proud of their efforts.
Like others I thought Davies was once again excellent. We've done well to pick that lad up.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

proud to be a Stanley fan after last night. it felt more like a win. after 120 mins. we were level with a side 2 divisions above us. what came next was a lottery. onwards and upwards to Morecambe and for gods sake leave matt crooks alone having read some pathetic comments on the other thread. if we cant get 1500 home fans next Tuesday then do people in the area deserve a football league club.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

We were always in the fame against mostly Premier League players so that's great testament to our lads who all played very well. Thought Crooksy just shaded it as our best player on the night.

I like Coley's comments after the match about not deserving to win if you miss 3 from 6 penalties - it keeps the standards high. Put performances like that in week in, week out and we'll have a very good season.

Would like to see Morgan get a run out. He's got talent and needs to harness the desire to go with it. Tom Davies looks to me like a lad who's determined to grab this chance of league football with both hands and give it his absolute best shot every game - Get some of that rubbing off on Adam Morgan and we'll have a player who'll score lots at this level.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

I have to agree, What else we can do to encourage people to the ground is beyond me. I think this must be the best squad we have had for years and one we may have the best chance of reaching the play offs with for some time. The lack of TV coverage does not help, The local rags do all they can as they are diminishing in circulation. The radio is the best friend we have at the moment. If people won't pay to see the quality of football we saw tonight then I don't know what we can do. suggestions please.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

another great heart thumping performance by the Reds: when Dean Windass was asked on Sky Sports about his prediction he said 4-3 to Hull with Josh scoring would be ideal,
penalties resulted a 4-3 win to Hull with Josh scoring

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Just off topic slightly,but thought the pitch was in excellent condition and made for a good passing game.
Thumbs up to the ground staff 👍🏻

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Steve Bruce may need counciling after the performance Stanley gave last night , I would imagine he thought they would walk it. Well how wrong is that !! we made them work for it, well done lads you did us proud . I would have happily have settled for a 2 1 lose as for us to get a goal past a premier goalie was the icing on the cake for me , to get 2 goals was almost "impossible headlines " I am so proud of you all , well done.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

I think the club need to think about doing a ticket promotion in one of the next few games, whilst we're playing well but also to attract fans whilst weather is pretty decent..."Season ticket holders get to bring a mate for £10 or 2 tickets for £30"

Haven't we just got new sponsor boards for 2BR and The Bee, Get the club to nag them to promote us until they have no choice but to promote us!

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Hull fan here

I didn't go last night but just wanted to say hats off to your fans and team! Sounded a great atmosphere and either side can win on pens, we were lucky to come away with the win by all accounts! Best of luck for the season!

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

Hang on. Have we uncovered Ange b's alter ego?
C'mon Nige b, is there something you're not telling us? :rolleyes:

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

The Lancs Telegraph reporter got it wrong quoting Coley -“One of their players would be taking home per week the budget for what we have for our whole squad."
What Coley actually said was "the budget for what WE have for our whole squad for a month"!
Shows how little they really know about life at the bottom of the Football League pyramid. Stanley beat Burnley. could easily have also done Rovers in pre-season and now matched Hull's Premier league players for 120 minutes on Tuesday which makes nonsense of the crazy wage differences.

Re: Hull (Tiger's ) City Match Thread
 

If "Sky" trickled down cash fairly instead of stupidly the lower league lads would earn a bit more imho. they run football.

Fella if she looked like Dean Windass I doubt our marriage would have started let alone lasted:eek:
