We need to up our intensity and go for it second half, they are there for the taking.

[shmmeee]

Need to score. Their keeper has that look of a shit teams keeper about to have a worldie

 

[Tommo1993]

On that showing are people still happy for the draw?

 

[Frankly_Mr_Shankly]

Has anything been said/rumoured on what’s up with Thomas?

 

[SkyblueTexan]

0-0 is a fair half-time score I guess considering how close Palmer came to scoring. Wright should have scored, but their goalie seems a lot better than Collins.

 

[Grendel]

Lol? You strange old man.

Were you sad he didn’t score?

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Simms has made a big difference with his ability to upset the defence with his strength and pace . It's what makes him more of a natural number 9 than Wright

 

[lordsummerisle]

Pandur looks better than any of our keepers.

Pandur great in the box.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Bodies on the line

Dave?

 

[Otis]

You have to take your chances.

It's worrying. Looked well in control, but you can see Hull grabbing a goal when they counter attack.

It's very frustrating and Simms, although, doing well on a number of occasions, is once again let down by the ball bouncing off his shins all the time

 

[David O'Day]

We have been able to play through them easily, go round them on the wings and go over them as well.

Very promising

How ? You started by saying it's 0-0

 

[Gibbo]

We have played some lovely stuff but Hull are poor and we look under powered up front

 

[covcity4life]

Great defending at the end there to avoid conceding . Grimes and lati even though nearly an own goal

We look the better side though. Midfield working well. Let's see if we can make breakthrough second half.

It’s not really worrying as we look a lot better than we have for weeks - Sunderland aside

 

[no_loyalty]

Best we have played for a while, just lacking the finishing. Great defending to keep KP out.

 

[MalcSB]

This guy has the worst long throw I’ve ever seen. Longs a hit of a stretch

Would need a bit of an additional stretch to make it a long throw.

Collins kicking has been really good.

 

[RoysterE17]

Decent half just no goal! Bit more clinical and we are walking away with the points. Hopefully no more squeaky bum moments like that palmer chance

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Under powered ? Their goalkeeper has kept them in the game

 

[fernandopartridge]

To be fair to Sheaf, as much as he was caught it was a horrible ball into him. We just need to make better decisions.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Just praying they don't bring on Crooks. I can see him causing havoc from long throws. We are the better team, playing lots of lovely stuff, but....come on City. A win would be huge.

 

[ptr]

Pandur looks better than any of our keepers.

Not as good with his feet though (he doesn’t take an age to pass the ball, doesn’t invite pressure and then doesn’t play a hospital pass into midfield)

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

I agree
They will have a couple of chances
Crooks will come on for palmer about 65

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Injured mate

Not sure what it is exactly but I’ve heard his head is fucking massive. Sounds nasty.

 

[Saddlebrains]

These lot are fucking shit

We've battered them, done everything but score

 

[steve101]

Thought everyone played well so far. DaSilva and Van Erwijk have been excellent. First goal will be crucial.

 

[CovveeBreak]

Delighted with all but the lack of goals. I don't see the goal line clearance as a bad thing whatsoever.

Sheaf dispossessed, we were scrambled, and we had bodies on the line to keep them out. That's an outstanding response on the back foot.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

We need to push on for the win. Hull look really poor, and a lot of their chances have come from our high line.

 

[Shannerz]

That wasn't the most exciting half of football, but we should be winning on the balance of it.

Despite the fact they've got almost nothing in attack, our defence really doesn't fill me with confidence.

 

[Warwickhunt]

Hull have not been anywhere near our goal until that appalling tackle on Sheif and the Referee decides to ignore it and they nearly score, I was OK when I see it was Palmer though he only does Hollywood stuff so simple tap ins is a no no

 

[Otis]

Worrying me, because I can see us losing this

 

[Liquid Gold]

We just need to get that goal and Hull will crumble.

Sheaf was so fouled
