[Briles]

And we’re off. Head says stodgy loss tonight.

1-1. Dodgy ref.

[AJB1983]

Twitter stuff came from The cov pod

They just regurgitate what they read on here though.

 

[Potbellypig]

lets just say Ruben Selles did spend his Sunday evening browsing SBT and knows about our "potential" injuries.

He has no idea what changes Frank would make, and he's working with a squad of players who are 20th, so there's unlikely much he can do with the news anyway

We are too good for them and should beat them, we have too much quality with or without injuries

Cue 2.1 loss and the whole Hull team picking on Thomas' replacement whilst not playing a right back because they know EMC is out as well

Of course he won't be doing it, but you can bet your bottom dollar that it is in someone's job role to keep a track of opposition groups and forums for tit-bits of information to bring forward in the analysis. This a professional football club, not Royal Oak FC.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

@Saddlebrains have you heard about Sheaf too?

 

[Sick Boy]

2-0 defeat and a meltdown later.

 

[CovLad94]

They'll have there own sources anyway

Agent Palmer

 

[Hobo]

Anyone know if there's a way of finding pubs who are showing the match (not in Coventry area)? Is there a site online or something?

You can get a Now day pass for £14.99
Or a month for £29.99 and watch at home.
Month the best option as Hull, Plymouth and Luton will all be televised.

 

[Matt smith]

@Saddlebrains have you heard about Sheaf too?

Not again

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

At least I've had some warning before driving all the way to Hull and seeing Lati/Binks' name on the teamsheet.

Got the feel of a ground out 1-1

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

I have seen some things in my time on this forum but complaining that a manager who took a team hovering above the relegation zone playing turgid crap into serious playoff contenders is too inflexible is a new one.

Actually it isn’t

 

[Hobo]

I'm pretty sure that all staff/players know stuff will be leaked. It's not like it's down to people with binoculars in a bush anymore. If a players injured he isn't sworn to secrecy by the GDPR fairy.

It's in their contracts not to though.

 

[ptr]

Tavares recalled.

 

[SBT]

Richard Duffy coming in on an emergency 30-day loan

 

[Otis]

Tavares recalled.

.... a story about his childhood?

 

[torchomatic]

Disappointing view from the Hull Travelodge window.

I expected to see Sydney Opera House, perhaps? The Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically across the plains...

Still is a child remember! 24 year old youth teamer

Is that Bobby Thomas going past in the Ambulance?..... Carrying out top six hopes!?

Has that random blue pillar that looks like bins stacked on top of one another been built with the intention of improving Hull's already rock bottom aesthetic?

 

[ptr]

Oh ffs more bad injury news…

BTA has recovered from his.

That's the one I stayed at last season, walk down the road straight in front and there is some rock pub which was alright, then another one at a junction close to the ground.

 

[torchomatic]

Not sure what that is.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Maybe it's a ploy by the club, to MAKE Hull believe these players are missing, so they make adjustments.

It will then shock then when Thomas scores a hat-trick from 3 EMC crosses.

Or a poly by the club to seek out the mole who keeps leaking the team news, Rooney vs Vardy mark 2

 

[Saddlebrains]

@Saddlebrains have you heard about Sheaf too?

That he's starting? If so, yes

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

That he's starting? If so, yes

Assuming you’ve got the line up. Gonna guess Thomas, EMC not on it?

 

[wingy]

It's like those welcome to Coventry on the way in or out that were destroyed by wind a few years back?
A tinpot attempt at self promotion,at least ours were illuminated until the COUNCIL decided to switch the lights off if they'd stood the test of time.

 

[CBS16]

Not having a pop here, genuinely interested in the reasoning behind posting whatever you've supposedly heard. Nobody but the team, Lampard and his staff should know that information

Explained it above but il do so again

The news was being thrown around whatsapp groups on Saturday night

I thought it's got to be bullshit, so messaged my source for clarification

He confirmed last night hence why I posted on here

Evidently someone (not saying who) blabbed this on Saturday to their mates, it was doing the rounds 24 hours before I posted it on here

 

[Briles]

It's in their contracts not to though.

There's nowt in any contract that says you aren't allowed to discuss your medical status with friends and family.

The room I stayed in at the Travelodge in Clapham for the play off final looked like it had been burgled.

 

[wingy]

Who is family or a friend of a friend?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Shortly after you checked out apparently

 

[Covkid1968#]

Anyone know the best cure for piles ? Asking for a friend

No but my neighbours adopted cat is called Piles on account of them finding him always hanging out around the back door. I've always wondered when that bit of useless knowledge would come in handy.....SBT delivers again

Not having a pop but info doing the rounds in mates chats or WhatsApp is a bit different to popping the info out onto the t'interweb.

 

[eyesee]

Not sure what that is.

looks like a sky blue totem pole to me.
good omen!

Our club have someone looking at forums. They certainly monitor this one.
