No Smooth Sailing Here

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 club, to be replaced by his predecessor, Adam Pearson. Whew. On the pitch, things aren’t much better, as the Amber and Black lie in the relegation zone, and face a tough test on Sunday against a Stoke side that sits in 9th place in the table.

With only resurgent Portsmouth (although they were beaten today) further behind Hull, it will take a solid run of results to emerge from the basement. Doing so has become a complete necessity at this stage, since its been made clear this week that a drop to the second tier could mean financial armageddon for the club. Brownie will feel extra pressure come Sunday as many have speculated this could be his last chance at saving his job.

Can the Tigers do it? Minus a suspended Geovanni and a injured Jimmy Bullard it will be tough, but hopefully the KC roar can lead them to an almost must win.

    I noticed Jozy played 80 minutes. How’d he do? Was he dangerous? Did he get tired? Vinegar scored as his replacement, so that was a stroke of genius/luck.
