Hull’s recent record in August and September, the last two months of the season, does not make for pretty reading. Taking 2020 out of the equation (which finished in November due to the Covid lockdowns), the last five seasons have seen them lose 28 of their 32 fixtures. That’s an alarming statistic. https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/sport/r ... e_vignette

That's grim.
It wouldn't be FC if we headed into the off season with some optimism rather than depression and hand-wringing though would it.

Would think so Dessie. Gives Litten time to develop, I'd let Litten and Tindall fight it out for a wing spot next season too

I wouldn't be disappointed with that, he was good for us last year and has by all accounts been decent for Rovers, I'd imagine he'd be fairly cheap and saves Litten playing every week when he's not quite ready, but always has that injury concern hanging over him, if the club don't sign a proper 7 next season then I give up.

Anybody know how Staveley got on last night?

How can a forward who plays 80 minutes make 5 drives?

Overall out stats from our forwards are terrible.

Saying that and I've said thisca few times our backs do far too much work, I hope with the signings we have made that changes, otherwise we are wasting the potential forward power.
