You can't really expect to stay up after losing to Stoke at home, Sunderland away and Middlesborough when you needed to win, Boro especially are one of the worst teams in the league imo. Hull are a dire team and have played shocking for a while now.

City are playing shockingly aswell

20K a month to spout gems such as "Manucho is better than James Beattie"

to be fair, I bet he spends about 10K of that at Tan-Fastic.

The simple fact is City have a Championship team becasue like Derby they came up way before their time was due - The fact we spent exactly half what Stoke spent speaks volumes for the place we are in the league

We have had our chances to stay up and blow them; still just being in the premiership was a bonus

City will be a big team in the Championship now with a few quid to spend so next season should be interesting

just hope city dont become a yo-yo team up n down like sunderland birmingham etc

What, you would rather them stay down



I went to Goodison to see them play Everton and afterwards in the pub the Everton fans where saying its the worst side they have seen at Goodison in a long time, I also formed the opinion that day they would get relegated. Hope I am wrong, but they have a manager who does not think like a premiership manager (hence half the signings).

You keep telling yourself that Dorian Asskiss.

City had a few quid to spend this year (approx £60m) and still can't win a thing. Looks like the players can't be bothered and the response of Brown after every defeat is "Well, we look forward to playing team "x" next week when it will be another crucial match with 3 points on offer." It's like groundhog day at the minute.

If you believe City will flourish in the championship, then take your blinkers off and look at Charlton, Southampton, Leicester, Coventry, Nttm Forest and all those other teams relagated from the Prem in the last 10 years. Not exactly romping it, are they.

Plus, all the other teams in the C'ship will perceive City as a scalp next season, and will raise their games making it very difficult for them.

Anyway, why the hell I am debating soccer on a RL forum. Surely there is another more suitable forum for this?

I bet he feel silly now

Thats what i am saying; we had the same amount to spend as Stoke but didn't - and that is why we are in the relegation zone now

Those teams you mentioned all have gone down hill since being relegated from the Premiership but all of them in their first season did well: ie Southapton in the Play-offs and Charlton just finishing outside last season

O/T Anyone seen the new Hull Colour Pages?!

(Tiger skin!



).

looks like the derby could be back on next season hull vs scunny sorry leeds utd fans you played well tonight i think you might lose a couple of players city should go in for a few if they go down im sure they would come to hull given the chance

Yeah only because City have given the option of a guaranteed double refund if they're relegated

well done scunny going to wembley again could be a derby on the cards next season?

Still alive and fighting 1-1

justed watched hull city carnt belive how good city was today shame they couldnt play like this during the year lets see what type of team man u will bring next week still in with a chance

Two brilliant saves from Jaaskelainen denied City the three points, at least it is in their own hands, just have to beat the World Champs to ensurw survival

.

there safe i reckon man u will put a very weak side.

I doubt that any of Ferguson's prefered starting line-up in the Champions League Final will take any part in the match.

Suddenly looking dodgy for Newcastle again.



No doubt the Hull City Mail will be calling for a Survival Parade for through the city if they do fluke survival.

do you want Newcastle to stay up over City?

Why would it be a fluke if they have more points then Newcastle, did Rovers fluke survival in 2007? or did they survive because they were better then the team below them?.

F*** EM!

I for one will be glad that they get relegated
