Hull home match thread
- Thread starter andyd
- Start date
Well we made Hull look like what I said during the first meeting not that good a side, we were back to what we do well pressing defending from the front, Coley got his selection spot on tonight Barclay looking like he had played their all season didn't put a foot wrong Uwakawe mom for me had a hand in both goals, good performance let's keep it up lads.
Excellent performance from all eleven tonight, well done to them and the the coaching team. Especially impressed with Barclay’s contribution. Two very good goals to win it. Celebrating with lucky tomatoes tonight.
just where did that performance come from. was really expecting the worst last night more than usual after our recent form. for once the changes in the team improved it which isn,t always the case. need to follow up this with another win and another top performance.
Is it true they made Ben Barclay do the post match interview to stop him getting on the coach back to Hull? He stuck so close to them all match so they couldn't get anything going. Would have him as man of the match with Uwakwe not far behind.
Same 11 at Plymouth hard to argue against it?
Stats don’t necessarily always tell the whole story Milord.
Stanley had a flurry of shots in the first few minutes which were all blocked easily and didn’t get through to their goalie. This clearly puts a slant on the stats for the first half IMHO. Also Hull put the ball in the net but that was marginally offside. Stanley soon got on top reflected by the two yellow cards for Hull players in the first half when they had to chase our boys as Stanley took a firmer hold on the game. Don’t forget it was still 0-0 at half time!.....Fairly even IMHO but I will concede Stanley just had the edge!Stanley certainly bossed the second half though and fully deserved the win!
Team spirit was excellent personified by Dion Charles’ running, defending and vocally encouraging his team mates. Barclay stepped in and was excellent. Two great goals too should give the team more confidence for the matches to come.
ON STANLEY ON.
KEEP THE FAITH.
Choirboy, my apologies. 
This is the problem when you're following the game via a phone app.
The first 20 minutes or so, the BBC Sports app was showing c.70% possession & almost continuous goal attempts by Stanley.
Yet some other contributors were saying the complete opposite, ie.- Hull were all over us.
Confusing or what?
As you obviously had the benefit of actually watching the game, I concede your summary was more accurate.
Put it down to frustration that (according to the stats) our possession & goal attempts had failed to result in any goals by half-time.
ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL!

its never been about stats especially the posession one. we have all been to games where we have been on top and you know we just are not going to score. then there,s the other games where the opposition have never had a chance all game but the game changes and you know its only about how long it will take em to score, usually an equaliser. we have been correct much more than we have been wrong in both cases.
