The Tigers Down Under

A hugely spirited win against Sunderland gives City some breathing room to the bottom 3, and the game in hand over Derby takes place this coming Tuesday night against Cardiff City, a side City have a strong run of form against.________________________________________________Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAusFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussi...Instagram: hull.city.aus

Another frustrating home performance as City started the game well but withdrew into their shells following the opening goal against Norwich. The less said about that Burnley game the better as City look to bounce back with a tough fixture against Sunderland who will be smarting after a late loss to Leeds.________________________________________________Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAusFa...

Will we ever win at home again? Despite a strong showing against Stoke City still slumped to defeat at home, and with Burnley and Norwich to come, it proves to be a tough prospect for City to gain points.________________________________________________Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAusFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussi...Instagram: hull.city.aus

The Tigers Down Under look back on the first half of the 2019/20 season in the last season of the 2010s to be reviewed. Grant McCann replaced Nigel Adkins in the summer, and the first half of the season actually had City looking in reasonable shape to finally push on and make the play offs. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https...

Despite a disappointing defeat to QPR, City responded in style with a thumping win against Sheffield United 3-0 in what may have been our best victory in quite some time. A busy end to the transfer window has seen a number of players arrive, with more promised. Stoke this weekend is just as vital, with the teams level on points and the prospect of pulling away from danger for the victor. _________...

A big clash against Millwall resulted in maximum points for City as the pull out of the relegation zone and towards safety continues under Ruben Selles. CIty are getting busy in the transfer window with Gelhardt and Amrabat signing, Lincoln and Joseph imminently signing, and Sorba Thomas linked. QPR Wednesday morning promises to be an important fixture at home, with a much sterner test Saturday ag...

A familiar feeling as City crash out of the Cup, at least this time with the excitement of a penalty shoot out. In the transfer market, deals are moving typically slowly with Millwall looming this weekend as a game reinforcements would be welcomed for. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussi...

Only a point gained from two fixtures but a stirring comeback against Leeds caps off the week in positive fashion. Wheels starting to turn in the transfer market give City a week of progress ahead of Doncaster in the Cup. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussi...

A loss and a win against Preston and Blackburn makes it two wins in three and a first clean sheet since Millwall to cement real signs of improvement for City under Selles. The games keep coming thick and fast with Boro and Leeds to come this week. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussi...

How good is that winning feeling! Three points secured against Swansea not only takes City off the bottom of the table but out of the relegation zone for Christmas. Preston and Blackburn to come round out the year with the promise of putting some real space between City and the bottom 3. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https://...

A point against Watford finally saw the six game losing streak broken for City, and a lead against Coventry promised to make it an undefeated week. That wasn't to be as City slumped to defeat in the Midlands, and Swansea rapidly becomes a must win game this weekend. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/group...

An inexplicable loss to Blackburn where the away side failed to even register a shot in the first half underlines the notion that when a side's luck is out.. it's really out. A 300th episode for The Tigers Down Under as we look ahead to City's first two games under new manager Ruben Selles against Watford and Coventry. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/H...

A fifth loss in a row but an uptick in performance perhaps under Andy Dawson? Burstow scored his first City goal, with the latest on City's search for our next permanent manager, and Blackburn up this weekend. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussi...

An emergency mid-week podcast as Acun finally pulls the trigger on Walter's tenure as City manager. What next for the club, who should be put in charge, and does it change the mood for the games to come? We also touch on a tough game against Sheffield Wednesday that spelled the end for Walter. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: ht...

Once again we huff and puff but struggle to create clear cut chances to score and fail to make an impact in the game. Luton score once from a set piece and come away with a reasonably comfortable victory. Of concern is the prolific Middlesbrough looming on the weekend, with a visit from Sheffield Wednesday to come first. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com...

A poor second half against Oxford after City failed to put away chances, and then a meek performance against a tired WBA spelt trouble heading into the International Break, but as we sit here Walter is still in charge as City head into a clash against another club with a manager under pressure at Luton. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Fa...

The Tigers Down Under look back on the second half of our full season under Nigel Adkins. When Ehab confirmed we would make a push for the play offs and look to make signings in January to support this, more was perhaps hoped for with the second half of the season than eventuated.. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https://www.fa...

Results and performances have soured quickly at City, and the second half against Portsmouth became increasingly toxic, as City failed to beat the bottom side in the Championship. Is Walter on borrowed time or can he still turn things around? Two teams in Oxford and WBA with no wins in their last five could well be the final chances for him. ________________________________________________ Twitter...

One positive draw and one disappointing one as City held Burnley to a 1-1 draw at the MKM before failing to overcome Derby. On another week it could have been two victories, but instead City had to settle for two points. Portsmouth loom as an almost must-win this weekend. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https://www.facebook.com...

City returned from the International Break with a disappointing defeat to Sunderland. Disappointing, at least, due to the fact City looked markedly better against the table toppers, but were undone yet again from a short corner routine, this time Sunderland ably assisted by the referees body check. Burnley are City's mid-week opponent before newly promoted Derby on the weekend. ___________________...

Norwich brought their scoring boots to the clash just before the International Break as all the red flags in City's previous performances came home to roost, with City shipping 4 goals to a dominant Norwich side. Now just the small matter of the table topping Sunderland side to deal with. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https:/...

The Tigers Down Under look back on the first half of our full season under Nigel Adkins. While it started in quite rocky fashion, it was perhaps a good lesson in not having an itchy trigger finger when it comes to managerial decisions as Adkins surged us towards the play offs. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https://www.faceboo...

Well that was a bit fun, wasn't it? 4-1 win over Cardiff, followed by 3-1 win against QPR capped off a brilliant 10 days in which City's form well and truly reversed. A clash with Norwich to suddenly get a look into the Top 6 looms before the International Break. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/a...

A first win of the season eases some of the pressure on Tim Walter.. with the second half providing a blueprint for how we need to play/line up. A. clash with managerless Cardiff City who sit bottom of the table should allow for City to make it two in two, before an out of form QPR mid-week. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: http...

A meek 2-0 surrender to Sheffield United underlined the increasing pressure Tim Walter finds himself under as City manager, and a trip to managerless Stoke City must simply be a three point affair for the mood to shift at the MKM. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussi...
