Hull v Burnley match thread

Radio 5 report on the goal says it was sublime.. It's great being a Burnley fan. UTC

[dermotdermot]

Yes. Some unusual markings on the pitch. Not sure what they are for though

Perhaps they play that silly American football there as well.

4 mins of additional time

Don't they know it was Tella ffs

[SalouClaret]

Every time you hear, “top of the league you’re having a laff”. We score.

As soon as I heard them, I said we'd score soon

[Clockwork Claret]

Errr Rugby League?

Rugby City.

[Billy Balfour]

That was utter class. I could watch it all day.

[gsyclaret]

"Top of the league, you're having a laugh" - bang. 1-0.

you would have thought they were winning

[Bosscat]

Decent enough half. Some real sloppiness in the final third has held us back from creating better openings. Quality from Tella for the goal whos probably been our best player along with Cullen (no surprise).

[Croydon Claret]

Played well but not really created much. Then we go and score anyway

Good times

Just had a quick look on the Hull forum, this one stood out.

[HiThere]

Only the single effort on target so hope we improve on that.
And defensively when they've ran at us in the first 25 minutes or so we looked a bit dodgy - which we'll have a lot of next season in the Prem so something we'll need to improve on.

[TPClaret]

Hull were trying to press us early doors but we were getting loads of space. Soon changed to plan b. Sit back.

[Nonayforever]

Only 4 mins added time ?
Coyle was down for 7 mins in total.

[boatshed bill]

I wonder how often you get all 6 games in the same division at 1-0 at half time?

[beddie]

Just going back to the penalty that wasn’t given. The ref was looking straight at it, I really don’t understand him not giving it.

[gsyclaret]

I just wish sometimes we would take the shot sometimes ,the chances have been there

Both PL games were also 1-0 at half time.

Tella's Goal

thank you, great pass from Ekdal

[distortiondave]

I must preface this by saying that I don't think Tella committed a foul in the lead up to the goal, but he only had eyes for the player and jumped towards him, so I was half expecting a free kick to be given against. I could see it being given against us in the big league, anyway.

[Matt_Whalley]

What was Tella’s celebration, or lack of, about?

[AGENT_CLARET]

That pass by Ekdal was fantastic

[Bosscat]

Blades equalize

[equinox]

That touch from Batnes though, wtf!

From the North.

[7decades]

Southamptons bank manager must love Burnley, and tomorrow I bet he starts trying to recruit more bank tella's !!

[SalouClaret]

He did the Ronaldo 'calm down' celebration and then did a 'shh' gesture with Zaroury, presumably to their fans.

[SalisburyClaret]

Shocking!

[FCBurnley]

Not sure what position JBG is playing. Cullen is everywhere and winning every ball. Beyer has made 2 or 3 great runs out of defense. Maatsen and Zaroury starting to get in the game. Far from our best but dominant nonetheless. To be fair Hull have made it tough for us and look dangerous the break but easy night for Muric so far

Not tonight, then

As Colin said t'other week "Barnes is playing like Messi"

[distortiondave]

What's normally on SkyArena? I've not noticed it before.

Gladiatorial Combat "Christian v Lions" that sort of stuff

[Tricky Trevor]

Just going back to the penalty that wasn’t given. The ref was looking straight at it, I really don’t understand him not giving it.

From his view he possibly thought the arm was closer to the body than it was.
Big difference between the match camera and the crossfield camera.

[HiThere]

They should have done better then.

[Croydon Claret]

Good cross from Hull

[distortiondave]

Gladiatorial Combat "Christian v Lions" that sort of stuff

Come on you Christians!

[HiThere]

Defending is certainly our weakest point when teams attack us.

[Croydon Claret]

Hull should've put that away

[SPC&G]

Lucky there really

[RVclaret]

Poor start to the half from ys
