When I was watching the highlights of the game last night, I heard Eddy and Stevo complain about Hull's shirts name and number. They said that the fans in the Stadium deserve to see who is holding the ball, and they can barely see it from a close up camera.

I was with the many Hull fans in the Stadium last night and not once did I hear anybody complain about them. Eventhough I am still have youngish and have a pretty good eyesight, I thought they weren't as bad as Eddy and Stevo made them out to be.

the blokes a fool.

Didnt look good on TV, dont think the flood lights helped with the shine Should be black i think, though would this spoil the overall subtlety of the kit?

you can see where they are coming from though, we know who are players are, if you're a neutral watching the game on tv it wasn't the clearest but nowhere near as bad as warringtons'

The white numbers are fine imo, stevo is just a penis

Yeah I heard that comment on the replay. I could see perfectly fine at the ground, but can totally understand his POV in relation to TV viewers I guess. Couldn't really see any numbers when they zoomed out a little. Just a white blur.

We obviously are trying to go for a nice subtle look, but I do think maybe they should be black numbers, if only for the sake of TV viewing.

Just black bordering around the white number would be better.

Thought the comments were spot on actually, I went to the game and couldn't see the numbers, only recognised our players by being familiar with body shape/movement. Watched it on sky+ and the names/numbers are poor, should either be in black or edged in black for those not familiar with our team. Sort it JR

I think they need to be black or dark blue as well

Coventry are playing Chelsea in similar colours to us last night.
They are wearing Black numbers. I thought our names and numbers last night were hard to pick out.

TOP OF THE LEAGUE!!!

shouldnt be too hard to change this season really, cant see fans complaining about it

i remember they changed the numbers a few years ago so shouldn't make any difference

The numbers do have black edging, but it's too narrow to make a difference at any distance.

Just noticed that to be fair watching the game again. Like you say a bit too narrow though to be noticed. As the game went on and the shirts got dirtier the numbers became more prominant.

who uses the numbers to identify players? eddies a buffoon, he set out on his stupid campaign 2nd week of the season and you can guarantee it wont be the last time he comes out with his "its unfair ont he fans" bile. hopefully hull wont crumble like warrington did and change the numbers, if he was any good at his job he wouldnt need to use the numbers, which 3/4 of the time they cant see anyway because the players are side on to them

least doesnt think berrigan is over hyped

Was Hull getting any praise last night from the two numptys?
Was he saying how much of a talent Briscoe is etc or not?

just think sky turned up to witness how good hudds were seemed forced to comments about hull

yes there were impressed with briscoe but stevo prefers hookers

Not bad, actually. They mainly focussed on Horne and were singing his praises all night. Gave him MOM as well.

The numbers were fine, it was the players who blended into the background hence the Hudds players playing catch in their own 20 thinking there was no-one there.

Stevo and Eddie have become even greater jibbering idiots in recent years. Eddie seems to go on a rant each week about something and I hate the way they have a 'flavour of the week' young player that they praise to high heaven for doing something run-of-the-mill just so they can criticise later on in the season.

The whole Sky coverage sucks nowadays, seems like they try and trump up the sport and its 'superstars' in a bid to convince themselves.

FFS do we have to have a thread moaning about Eddie and Stevo EVERY week.

Either don't watch it or turn the bloody sound off.
