We're playing Hull City in a friendly..

I bet Barry and Ben had nowt to do with this, what with them having no connections to Hull...

***** friendly.

 

Its not that long ago that Hull were a steady third / fourth division side, fast forward a few years and look at the difference.

 

£75m and (maybe) a re-name is all it takes.

 

Wednesday and Hull at Oakwell.

Be good tests for us, to be fair like. But very 'meh' in terms of attraction.

I won't be attending either I'm afraid. Got a family do on the 2nd August, and can't be arsed with Hull.

 

Maybe a thanks to Barry for supporting their barmy idea of a name change. Neither friendly has any interest for me. I thought last year with foreign teams with a different way of playing and a different culture was a good thing. Now we are back to same old *****.

 

Would like to see another team like Bordeaux come and play us, good side where it might attract some people to come down.

 

Sod friendlies what's happening with Bobby's Testimonial

 

Who?

 

Athletico Madrid would be a coup, Spanish and potential European Champs ........................ ffs, seriously on a stick. Some need a reality check.

Likey or no likey we are not a big club any more, and even when we were, we weren't that big. Only in our own hearts and minds.

Wendies and Hull are about as glamorous as it gets - I'm just hoping the Hull match isn't part of any arrangements to sign Prosky-witch on a permy.

 

Shows how much the tables have turned, I always remember Hull being a nothing team from the lower divisions

Some folk on here use any opportunity to have a dig at Barry Taylor or ben mansford even for arranging a friendly against premiership opposition. Stop moaning and get a grip! Put some effort into getting behind the management and ownership.

 

I don't get excited about a friendly against Hull. I've been following us for 26 years, and Hull have been a shitty little lower league club for much of that time, so just because they're enjoying a year or two in the greed league spotlight, doesn't stop me seeing them as a ***** draw in terms of attractive opposition in a pre season friendly.

Just my opinion like.


Got a grip. And will always moan. I'm that type of bloke/lovely person.

 

I know you like a moan I used to sit behind u in the ponty when we got relegated last time

 

I was a complete bellend back then. I've changed since. I'm just a bit of a bellend now.

 

If I remember right you got into a scrap in that last game against Norwich which sent us down

 

Yep. Was an argument with another supporter, and then a scrap with the steward who got involved. And then me and r old boy swung a few fists at each other.

Aaaaahhhhh. Memories.

******* Richard Naylor.

 

That would make for a very debatable thread for those who know you. I would imagine.

 

Quite happy with the Wednesday & Hull games. Much rather play local-ish teams from higher leagues than someone like West Brom who we played 2 seasons ago & let's face it we aren't a draw for a top 8 prem side or a foreign team like Bordeaux now we're in the 3rd tier

 

Thanks for the info

I can't see me attending Oakwell until the season starts proper.

 

What month will that be? Mmmm.
