Fair play then. If you've watched them at home and away more than once and believe that in your opinion and your expectations that they are boring, then I have no ball ache with you. You have made your choice upon evidence, which is what my argument was for.
Its the people who never watch any away games who complain about one thing or another but dont know the facts.
Hull, I found, last season, had a few tough guys and a couple of real talented players. When they had their heads down, you could see the potential in them, but they often let it slip at some point, resulting in a loss for them. When they played as a team, they were a real challenge. I once saw them absolutely wipe the floor with the Devils for two whole periods.. didnt think they were going to get it back, but Hull let up, lost themselves and the Devils knuckled down. Hull ended up losing. Just because the stats say so, doesnt mean they're a crap team.
I've often heard/seen people who have, self admittedly, never seen Hull play in their own rink. I dont quite see how their opinion on the matter is therefore valid.
However, rant ends. I'm not picking fights, just food for thought before people open their gobs again this season about Hull being an "easy" fight for the first few weeks. Never underestimate a team... Hull, Edinburgh and I'm sure Dundee and Braehead, will all give as much as any other team.. and by gum, they certainly know how to play mind games with some opposition players!!! :lol:
They managed to get in and stay in the ELITE League for years... so they have to be of a certain level!! Lets hope that other people think the same and that for that reason, they are worth saving.
Mind you.. if they do get saved, I hope they have a publicity drive to get some more fans. The pumping of pre-recorded clapping and cheering through the PA is a poor effort!!!
:shock:
