Best stream going. Cheers.

A bit of penalty karma after what happened up there.

I think it was a penalty, but I was surprised to see the ref give it. 

Not a great game but we looked so determined. Hard to beat. 

Deffo pen...he had his arm out in the box.   

Clear as anything.

[redkev]

We seem to have become much better at game management and some of the darker arts of the game , which I’m afraid to say is a big part of the current game . Need to be more clinical but things deffo going the right way , missing 3 big players as well ; Atkinson Naysmith & Conway 

[Bris Red]

Brilliant win. I think a top 10 finish would be a real possibility now which after everything Pearson has had to deal with would be a fantastic season.

As others have said with a bit of investment in the summer i feel we could have a real go next season!

[Major Isewater]

We looked committed, fought for every ball and moved the ball at pace. Just missing a bit of something in the opposition box but a good performance against a tough defensive side. 
Well done to all. 
No new injuries and confidence to take into the cup game.

Yes. But, as we’ve seen, it doesn’t mean the ref is going to give them! 
 

Liam can’t come out in his Hull press conference and say it wasn’t a penalty. 

[Dan Robin]

Good strike by Nahki, fully deserved win: well done, lads!

 

4 points gained thanks to penalties in 2 matches: just to remember to everyone how much refereeings can influence results/tables and why anomalies like the one we endured shouldn't be accepted passively.

Anyway, this new trend is way more likeable.

He'll moan about the one they weren't given - in his opinion.

Ball hit Prings hand when it was fired at him from 3 yards during that melee late on.

But they handled it as well during that phase.

I am sure you are right, but the one team we will not be tacking lectures off this season over penalty decisions is Hull, after the travesty at their place.

Has a nice symmetry

so did pring by the sound of it 

[KegCity]

Thought Hull looked a poor side, we were definitely the better team but did seem to lack tempo on the ball for spells. Great to get another penalty and put in a good team performance, Mehmeti looks to be a constant outlet for midfielders.

Bit of an aside but thought Hull’s Coyle was one of the least technical players I’ve seen at this level. Didn’t do anything wrong but the way he controlled and hit the ball seemed awful.

Hope the team just take the Man City game as it comes and enjoy the experience.  Win would be amazing but if we lose who really cares. Go out and enjoy.

I think it shows how tough and ruthless this league is. 12 games unbeaten and we’re still not even in the top half!

Take nobody for granted in this league.

Only NINE in the league, t b f .

Love beating Hull through a penalty. Justice.

We are getting a bit binary score wise and look like we should be scoring more the space we create. Hopefully that comes. Equally gave up very few clear cut chances, one very decent save by Max. Last three at home in the league 1-0, 1-1, 1-0, great points return.

Yep 46 points from THREE games !

[WessexPest]

Loving this run. Mehmeti very lively and we seem to have this game management park figured out.

Nothing to lose on Tuesday but if I’m honest I’d rather beat the Blueturds next weekend if it’s one or t’other *Braces for brickbats*

Shit lottery numbers though

[Offside]

Good win. And another penalty! We were the better side, albeit lacking spark up front at times. Hull looked very average and struggled when we pressed them, which we didn’t do enough.

We saw the game out very well at the end. The only time we were really under pressure was just after our goal. 

And lastly I much prefer the new kit.

You can get cream to treat that

[pongo88]

It was definitely an good team performance especially the defence as Hull never looked like scoring, apart from one header from a corner. If there is one criticism it’s City’s crossing. Time after time City break and  get into a good wide position and, time after time, the move ends with a low cross that hits a defender. If only the wide players gave themselves an extra second and looked up to pick out a City player. In defence of the wide players it’s not much use putting over a high cross as City hasn’t  got a tall forward who’s likely to beat a central defender in the air 

[sephjnr]

With Mehmeti we've finally found a player who won't immediately pass the ball the moment he runs into a wall *and* can round his markers in difficult places. He was on top of almost every run at goal today.

We just needed to shoot off the cuff more instead of placing *every* time,

[BCFCGav]

Just got home so pardon my lateness but YEEEAAAAAAASSAASS.

Massive win. I feel great. And to win with a penalty as well - beautiful justice.

Very much doubt a win is happening!

That’s, as they say, the spirit. 
Why even bother turning up ? Let’s just give the Citizens a bye and our lads can have the night off.

Probably true, but this competition has a long and illustrious history of chucking the form book out of a 16th-floor window.

We’ve absolutely nothing to lose; a full house behind us, on a terrific unbeaten run and against a top, top side who have looked distinctly human recently. We can just enjoy the occasion and if they unthinkable happens it will be our best victory of all time IMHO.

[pl00peh91]

Mehmeti is what we wanted Ryan Kent to be 5 years ago

[Bazooka Joe]

No point in Mehmeti going to see a clairvoyant.

He's so unpredictable.

Loving the entertainment,

or 3 points. One at Sunderland, two today. Our precious penalty was in a 3-2 defeat at Coventry so no points gained from that one.
