My sons first league game away following city.

Not sure whether to drive or get the train.

What's it like for parking by the away end and is it far from the station?

Are there pies any good?

Thanks in advance for any info

Got train last year very easy walk 20 mins tops 

All the best Nigel gave  the team a structure and a method of playing and when all fit top 10 , with one hand behind his back thank you

Players Vyner, Atkinson, Naismith would help us to play through or carry into midfield, likewise a proper genuine option at RB, cannot understate the impact injuries are having on us.

Absolutely agree injury’s are killing us once they return we will be fine the point I was trying to make all our strikers are the same we don’t have a plan B when plan A does not work , someone like a Famara would be great in our team 

I reckon our strikers are just all too small we need some physicality to hold the ball up , in all fairness Ipswich and to a extent other teams defenders have it so easy we lob it up to Tommy, Sam who are marked by 6’3, 6’4 giants that’s why we go back and sideways, tommys brilliant goal at Rotherham he was facing goal not with his back to it the best of the bunch is Cornick for physicality

See Wes Burns and Joe Low both started for Wales last night.

Not ours anymore, but testament to the quality of youth players that have come through recently ish

Actually delighted to see

With the likes of JoJo for Ghana and so on it's pleasing to see players come through and achieve elsewhere even if they don't make it here.

This is ignoring obvious bigger sales, Scott, Semenyo, Kelly, Reid etc 

And those like Max, Conway etc who are still here

It's working isn't it? We've cracked it finally?

 

For the players it’s a fantastic pathway for them and good luck to them , don’t think we have cracked it as a club as we are just a average team with not much sign of progression the last few years , we are producing great individual granted

Ha ha. Keith Stroud wouldn’t stand for that!!

Mind you, the worst was probably that head high challenge in the box, and if I remember correctly we saw a similar one at Ashton Gate last season that went equally unpunished. 

First time ever on Saturday I heard a loud boo for a referee when he came out to warm up

you "MIGHT" bump into someone who might be short of a ticket

I thought Harry Cornick was excellent today so much better in the centre fair shout worked tirelessly for the team

I'm looking for 3 points, especially after Saturday.

Rotherham are the kind of team we should be reasonably confident to beat, even at their place, if we have serious thoughts even about the top 10 imo. They have 3 losses and 1 draw in the last 4 - I think we've got a good chance and will beat them.

3 losses and 1 draw and city are up next only 1 result coming then 

I thought we played really well , I also was impressed by Harry Cornick when him came on , far better in the centre 

I enjoyed yesterday game more than the Plymouth match , we showed yesterday we have a style of playing which was excellent defence and midfield were brilliant the only thing I would say is a strong centre forward who can hold the ball up would be useful, the times we hit Nakhi it came straight back against the 6’4 defender I like Nakhi that’s not a criticism against him at all

How's he doing at Derby? After Bolton didn't want him.

He'd be as much use to us right now as a chocolate tea pot.

And a player's dad is hardly an unbiased opinion to believe, is it - what do you expect him to say? 

Pearson is a tough task master and has precisely the standards our football club requires right now. Your mate and his boy need to get over it and move on. Good luck to him, he wasn't what we need right now. 

What someone who can cross a ball and score goals

No context from you just black & white. Plus ,you work with kanes dad . Are you 5 years old ? 
this is  what pisses me of with fans like you . If players are not instant success then they’re shit . Bajic is a kid but you’re judging him . Cornick will turn out to be decent signing long term . Blinkered short term thinking that’s what it is. You’ve decided anis is no good either . I really do wonder what some people watch during games .Don’t  take this personally  but Sorry imo your opinions are clueless when it comes to football 

Would you like to meet Kanes dad mate and find out what really went on I will supply a free train ticket to go and meet him mate anytime you are free in fact mate it will be a first class ticket let me know when your free if you think I  am talking BS 

Just now, milo1111 said:

Genuine question…. Which players that Pearson has signed would you say he’s wasted money on?

In my opinion unfortunately Kane Wilson, bajic he obviously don’t rate as 1 game in 1 and a bit seasons ,at the minute I would also say unfortunately Anis and Cornick but I also think he has made a few decent signings like Knight who I think is a fabulous signing but he has signed a lot of players who are no better than he had before , I really wanted Kane to work out as I work with his dad it just looks like we are a few injuries away from a real problem

What’s that got to do with your idea that we’ve signed useless players under NP . Clueless , lazy & ignorant statement . 

A goalie he obviously does not rate Bajic,Kane Wilson ,cornick etc etc

One of the most clueless posts I’ve read in a while, and it’s got plenty of competition 

Why is that we were told plan A with Alex Scott and plan B without Alex and now no more signings no more money , 

I wonder if Steve is fed up with the money he has given to Nigel who has wasted it on Rubbish players  and said that’s enough until the next bloke walks through the door next season 

I left Hull stadium last Friday full of optimism by the way we played, I could see the style we are trying to play fast along the floor , we just need to try and find a system at home when teams sit back and give us little space in behind once that nut is cracked things will look up

Were you at the game? Were we that bad? It didn't sound that way on the audio commentary - just to be clear I'm genuinely asking not saying you wrong, just all I have to go on is the Audio and a very short highlight video. 

Either way I think it's a tad early to say our season needs saving after four league games. 

 

I went last night mate we were shocking bad ,but also thought Norwich were excellent big strong quick played great football broke the lines to find space it really should of been 3 or 4 it’s men verses boys 

Lovely another 2 days pay lost

I wonder if a future sell on clause will be added

This is a big problem for us. Tommy is the most obvious CF choice for us with his ability to hold the ball and link play, this is almost as bad as losing Scott. The good news is the window is still open, Nige may need to cut the stubborn approach to loans, we are missing a powerful forward, I’ve mentioned Joao already, surely worth exploring. Someone who can give us some pace and power up top. 

Lucas joao has signed for a Chinese team but agree sort of striker we need 

Leeds look exactly like city , no target man up front so can’t cross it into the box 

We are just so easy to play against sit deep and give us no space in  behind , we need a big striker to be able to  hold up the ball stop it coming back all the time ,just to easy for Preston defenders we then can play further up the pitch and get the full backs higher
