Crying out for a goalscorer. Why was Bojan not brought on? Because of his last game. Soft as shit. Burgzorg miles better. And Ward........?

Taking my daughter (aged 8) to her first game today, so apologies to all for jinxing it. No apologies needed, a most worthy cause, even if it turns out to be a jinx😉 So she had the full HTFC experience. Optimism, followed by despair, doom, slight recovery, more optimism, pure elation, feeling of being kicked in genitals and let's not forget the shit ref.

Very frustrating, when a point would have been as valuable as it would have been, you need professionals to be seeing the game out. First half poor, better second half but for all our intent still weren't troubling them anywhere near enough. They did defend well though. I'd have taken 3 points from the last two games, but a bit of a sickener today. Ref was poor, didn't have control of the game and should have been clamping down on their time wasting on the first half. Be good to get a new coach in with some new ideas. Whatever Jon W said to them at half time worked. Del... what a second half. They marked Sorba out of the game first half but couldn't cope with him second. Balker man of the match. Just what we need next season. I hope we've agreed a fee for him. Pearson also very good again as were a number of players today. That's the last two Saturdays where the pundits said that we deserved a draw. Agreed with Blaker MOTM and £1m for Del if true is an absolute bargain and a must take option Mr Nagle

No complaints from me with that performance. Hull are very good team and a draw would have been very much deserved.

Not sure we can moan about time wasting when you look at the antics of our goalkeeper. Clubs complain at us and Nicholls more often than not gets a card. Why can’t we complain? Because it's hypocritical.

I'm fuming, more with the performance than anything but the one change to the team absolutely buggered the whole dynamic of the team. He's been a good servant to Town has Hogg but he should NOT be starting games at 35 at this level. Him and Matos are stood on the bloody half way line most of the 1st half. Much improved when Kasumu came on who should have been starting anyway, much more energy and threat but all in all we were terrible in possession, unable to retain possession and carried absolutely no threat from ghe umpteen corners, worst of all we've plunged ourselves back into the relegation fight. Sadly I completely agree about Hogg. And if Ward gets another game I’m done - what a complete waste of time and fucking money that lad is. Still a great effort from the lads and think we more than deserved a point. Hope Hull don’t make the playoffs. Thanks Worthy for bringing back some exciting football and good luck to AB.

Loss for me this one. Hull are a better team than Sunderland and have had an extra day off. I think wednesday will have taken a lot out of the legs. When they beat the press Philogene, Carvalho and Zaroury will.be incredibly dangerous. 4-2 to them So I was right but also totally wrong. Thought they'd play us off the park but I'd argue we were the better team. They looked very good moving the ball but we totally nullified them. Having said that, Hogg, Lees and RB Pearson shouldn't be anywhere near this side next season. Hogg is now a hinderance to the way we want to play and it's quite sad to see him look so out of place. Speaking of out of place, Wiles is out of place being a professional footballer. How can anyone be so slow and still do what he does for a living. Negativity over, another great performance and we deserved something. That's three games in a row against top 8 teams and we've not looked out of place. Worthington has done a wonderful job of showing the players what they are capable. Despite the loss things are looking up. Utt. The 2nd half was better but the 1st half was dire, we've only put in half a performance today.

The ref was shit, whether or not she has a vagina is irrelevant.
Kasumu changed the tempo and it was criminal he was sat on the bench with Hogg and Matos in the middle. Wiles had a poor game and needs a rest.
Rudoni, Thomas, Balker class

Back to Earth with a bang. Missed Helik today just for his threat from set pieces. Never really looked like we were going to score from all those corners second half. The sooner he's back in and Lees is in the stand, the better

The most ridiculous one was when she booked Thomas for pointing out that the player wasn't 10 metres away from the corner. But he was 9.15 metres away. The ref told him to play. He carried on. Sorba was just being Sorba.

No need for the sexism there at all. Both teams had the same ref to deal with. Hull seemingly played the ref better. Sexism my arse you thought police nutters its 2024 not some dystopian 1984 political correct bollocks Her ‘ performance’ did nothing to enhance the need or necessity for female referees in the men’s professional game So you are judging all female refs on her performance today? How's that not sexist? The general view is she was shit - fine - but don't generalise that all female officials are shit on the basis of her performance today. If I was to do the same, I would assume all men were sexist idiots based on your performance on here today.

That's the last two Saturdays where the pundits said that we deserved a draw. Disagree, the substitutions worked. Poor team selection from the start cost us the chance of winning the game. If anyone needed resting it was Koroma not Kasumu. I thought on Wednesday that finally someone was brave enough to stick Hogg on the bench. Why on earth did he bring him back in today. Disappointing. Nakayama on the left and Spencer on the right would also surely have been better.

In a dirty horrible game Hogg is what you need. Against a team like hull you need legs. Bizarre decision to play him and even more so to take matos off instead of him. Very frustrating day

Sounds very dramatic 'plunged'. This team will be no where near relegation well before the end of the season. I've been watching Town for well over 50 years and this team definitely doesn't look like any relegation team of ours I've ever seen.

I agree, I certainly don't think we'll go down, if we do, it's on the new manager and we'll be looking for our 10th manager in 18 months but it is down to 2 points so yes, I would say, by the league table we're back in relegation trouble.

I hate losing to teams like that. They basically just cheated their through it. They did play well but really? Do we have to take gamesmanship to these levels? Ref was very weak as well. As for town. I felt better second half than first. Shame we didn’t see matos and kasumu together again. Wiles looked like he was running through treacle. We just look like a team that have had half a season or longer wasted when we could become as well drilled as others. In spells I thought we produced some really good stuff. And please, just put your foot through it and have a shot. Shame that poor game management cost us as we deserved at least a draw. Positive for the future. UTT

Nicholls should have saved them both, bar last game v Sunderland, he never looks like saving anything on target this season . Hes definitely lost his form, and it's worrying.

Bizarre decision to play him and even more so to take matos off instead of him. Very frustrating day that along with sending Ward on over Bojan and chucking Pearson up front is why I was concerned about him getting the job til the end of the season, he’s got a lot to learn, and today proved it…thanks for steadying the ship Worthy lad all the same.

From what I’ve seen of Radders, I’d have stuck (todays) Andy Booth up front ahead of him. Not sure he’d have had the muscle to make a difference

Sorba was just being Sorba. She was a fucking incompetent c***. If it'd been the other way, she'd have moved the Town player back.she even started tuning her back when Hull were fucking about at goal kicks so she wouldn't have to see it and do anything about it.
