No Smooth Sailing Here
By: Matt |Hull City in Turmoil
Well it’s never easy now, is it. The Tigers have endured a tumultous few weeks, with USA wunderkind being sent home and suspended over a Twitter flap, Phil Brown coming under immense pressure about his job security, auditors claiming we could go broke if relegated, and finally, chairman Paul Duffen leaving the [...]
Dozy Jozy Misses Dour Draw
By: Matt |Hull 0 Pompey 0
I won’t bore you with any descriptions on the match itself, it was absolutley abysmal.
More interesting, was the fact that Jozy Altidore turned up late to the KC before the match, and was then sent home (at least he didn’t have to watch it live). Rather foolishly, he then tweeted his [...]
EPL 101: Torres (is greater than) Hull City
By: Matt |Liverpool 6 Hull City 1
Well that was painful.
The instant I saw the team sheet I knew this was gonna be a long day. When you throw out Ibrahima Sonko and Liam Cooper (who? yeah exactly) as the center backs against FERNADNO TORRES, the best striker on the planet, you don’t stand a F’ing chance. [...]
JOZY ALTIDORE INTERVIEW – EXCLUSIVE
By: Matt |JA Interview
So here you are folks, straight from the good people at Hull City AFC, who so graciously allow us here at the Offside prime access to their exclusive interviews….the first with American wunderkind Jozy Altidore. So lets put all the recent poor form behind us, forget the Carling Cup, and lets hear what the [...]

Altidore Get His First Goal for the Tigers
By: Matt |Hull 3 Southend 1
American wunderkind Jozy Altidore smashed home Hull City’s second goal off of a free kick, as the Tigers raced to a 2-1 lead at halftime in their Carling Cup clash at home to Southend.
Geovanni netted his first of the season to make it 3-1 to the hosts, which is how it [...]
New Signings Help Sink Bolton
By: Matt |Hull 1 Bolton 0
What a difference three days makes. After being taken apart by Spurs midweek, Hull looked to rebound against a team many feel may be battling along with the Tigers against relegation come May. Although Bolton usually do enough to ensure safety, if not better, their slow decline made this an absolute must [...]
Weekend Review
By: Matt |Whirlwind Weekend
It was a busy one for the Tigers, as a flurry of late signings preceded their opening match away to Chelsea. First to the action on the pitch.
Chelsea 2 Hull City 1
In a thrilling but ultimately dissapointing season opener, the Tigers fell to Chelsea, 2-1, with Didier Drogba grabbing a brace. New signing Stephen [...]
Finally Some Action – Tigers Nab Altidore
By: Matt |Thank Heavens, Finally a Striker
The lesson learned here is that lamenting over an utter dearth of action in the transfer market on the Offside will eventually result in a tremendous signing. As my regular readers will know, Hull do in fact read this blog, since they so far are the only EPL team to [...]
Summer Update – Transfer (Lack of) News
By: Matt |Not Looking Good
Please forgive me for not being sufficiently positive about Summer 2009. In fact, its been downright worrying. The Tigers have done just about zero to strengthen their squad, which at the end of May was deemed an absolute must if they were to survive round two of their Premiership adventure.
I can’t decide [...]
