  1. Carl Dickinson put the boot into us at the weekend. Absolutely gutted. Traveled down from Ayrshire for this as one as my mate’s got corporate tickets through his work. Hate to say it but it was a cracking goal. Wee Burky had a great game. Although we travelled down and got beat we still had a ball. Traveled back to Wales in a supporters bus (sang all the way), had a party with the fans which was great and then stayed at the Village Cardiff Hotel. Hopefully be down for a home game after Christmas.

  2. I agree. Jozy played well. I don’t remember any giveaways and he kept posession and played positive balls in a few tight spots where in previous similar situations the ball usually “bricks” off of him.

    I think he showed what kind of player he is and can be. A handful but the type of player that needs supporting midfielders that he can play off and a heady 2nd striker that is alert to his flicks and one touches.

    I would think, at this point he is Hull’s 60-70 min starting striker.

  3. Jozy had a very decent game for Hull. Was often marked by two men and still played well with the ball at his feet. Prolly the best part was his pass selection to his midfielders running on.

  4. Couple of notes on the Fulham game:

    Dempsey starting as supporting striker behind Bobby Zamora, while Eddie Johnson made the bench. Not to much happened offensively for Fulham in the 1st half, but things definitely picked up in the second half being down a goal. Dempsey had three shots at goal in the second half, with two of them being on target. His best and first attempt would be his excellently stricken header in the 69th minute, which surely would’ve been a goal if not for an excellent reflex save by Birmingham goalie Joe Hart.

  5. anywho! i hope frankie continues to get this sort of playing time for Sheffield Weds. Cherundolo, Spector, Bornstein, Castillo and Frank Simek in concept seem like the best bunch we could have at the outside back positions heading into the world cup

  6. the LB West Ham played today was lethal on offense but horrible on defense. no we know why spector provides cover on the left side for them

  7. I would say they are missing Jagielka. Lescott looks good next to him. Now he’s horrible for Man City. Good job by Moyes selling him for 22mil.

  8. any count on how many goals Tim Howard has let in these past two months??? Don’t get me wrong I love the guy, but all I keep reading is how he is in top form…..but at the same time allowing an average of 2 goals a game??? He is definitely not having a good roll now.

  9. Looks like Jozy had a decent game in 70+ minutes

    Bradley with another 90′ in a nice win. Gladbach looking like a solid mid-table team

    Beas didn’t even dress for Rangers 🙁

    Spector gets splinters, but considering the Hammers shambolic defending, you’d think he’s a good bet for next match

  12. Frankie Simek is going the full 90 today at Ipswich. I watched from the 50 minute mark but i could never tell where he was on the field. Might of played as left back or center back, but he wasn’t on the right side.

  13. Vizio is the best of the cheap brands SOny is the best of the pricey brands. Either way try to get LED they’ll last longer than LCD or Plasma.
