The Tigers Down Under

A solid draw against Swansea to end their season was a positive way to end the season at the MKM as a record crowd was on hand to cheer City on. The season itself ends away at Luton Town who sit third in the table, providing a strong test for City to set themselves ahead of the summer break. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: http...

Despite taking the lead, City were unable to hold on for an impressive result at Boro, but didn't make the same mistake at home to Watford three days later with an impressive win against a relegated side in Watford. City's season comes to a close in the coming weeks, with a game against in-form Swansea a tough test this weekend. ________________________________________________ Twitter: htt...

A tough fought but well deserved point against Blackburn in the late game on Saturday saw City eke out another point and edge closer to mathematical safety. A debut for eye-catching Harry Vaughn was exciting and promising as well, as City look ahead to a tough double-header against Boro and Watford. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebo...

A breathless Easter period saw 4 points picked up, 5 goals scored, and 4 conceded as City first drew with Sunderland 4-4 in one of the games of the season, before picking up a hard fought win at home to Millwall. Is top half still in the picture? ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussi... Instagram...

A 23,000 strong crowd was on hand to watch a poor showing against a Rotherham side battling relegation, as City created chances but couldn't put them away. Rumours during the week around the manager's future will add fuel to a rumbling discontent, but with games against promotion hopefuls Milwall and Sunderland to come, City can't afford to pause. ______________________________________...

A 1-1 draw with Reading was a disappointing way to sign off before the International break, but a bumper crowd at home for a Yorkshire derby with Rotherham United is an exciting way to return from the break. Aaron Connolly is potentially back in the line up as we field an almost fully fit squad. ________________________________________________ Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus Facebook:...

Oscar was back on the scoresheet as City put in a second impressive performance in a row against a strong Coventry side. Improved performances across the board were a joy to watch, and with Burnley coming up mid-week there was no better time for City to pick up the paces. Reading are our opponent this weekend as we look to avenge a disappointing pre-World Cup loss.   _________________________...

A great and reasonably unexpected win over WBA saw a turnaround in City's fortunes after a 4 game winless run. City are now settling quite comfortably into mid-table which leaves us in the role of spoiler for the play off picture. Coventry are up next for us to try to trip up.  ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus  Facebook:...

Another defeat to make it four games without a win and City's form has fallen off a cliff at the wrong time. We look back on defeat at Ashton Gate in the context of the remainder of our season, look ahead to West Brom in what promises to be a now-or-never clash.   ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus  Facebook: https://www.fa...

A second 0-0 in three games, this time against Preston North End in a strangely strong overall performance despite the result. A number of missed chances costing us the three points, but an impressive debut from Xavier Simons. Bristol City to come this weekend, plus a few whispers of acquisition plans off the pitch to discuss.   ________________________________________________   Twitter:...

Well we came crashing back to Earth with a dour draw at Stoke before being touched up at Norwich which bursts the promotion dream just as it was forming in our heads. A clash against fellow mid-tablers Preston next weekend offers a chance to bounce back and stay in touch with the pack.  ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus  F...

Back to back home wins as City see off a tense affair against Cardiff courtesy of a brilliant penalty save from Ingram (assisted by some Cyrus Christie s**thousing). A brilliantly taken goal from Christie sealed the win, and has City only 4 points off the play offs.. do we dare dream? Two clashes to come this week with Stoke City the appetiser to a big clash with Norwich.   __________________...

The curse is finally broken! A fantastic victory against QPR with Connolly bagging a brace is the main topic of conversation this week, as well as the impending closure of the Transfer Window. A second successive home game against Cardiff City awaits next weekend as a move into the top half of the table stands as a likely reward.   ________________________________________________   Twitt...

A promising display against Sheffield United that ultimately ended in a defeat is the main talking point from the weekend, while a new transfer link has emerged with Karl Darlow from Newcastle on the agenda. Looking ahead, a home clash with QPR provides the latest opportunity to shake off the home curse.  ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/Hul...

Familiar issues at home as City slumped to a third successive 1-1 draw against opposition which was there to be had. Is it a concern or is the refusal to lose still a positive aspect? We also look at the latest transfer news with a number of players leaving the club, a surprise signing emerges, and a mouthwatering clash with all-but-promoted Sheffield United.   _______________________________...

Back to league action this coming weekend after a disappointing but not unpromising 2-0 defeat to Fulham this weekend past. Huddersfield to come in the league for three wins in a row and to really have City looking up the table.   ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussi...  I...

What a holiday break that was! 7 points from 9 including a thumping 4-1 win over Wigan as we're back for another year of The Tigers Down Under. Rosenior has the Tigers purring, and looking up the table, as we head into a free hit of an FA Cup clash with Fulham.   ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus  Facebook: https://www.fac...

A somewhat disappointing result against 10-man Sunderland, but a decent point in the end as City came from behind to grab a draw with the Black Cats. The crew also look ahead to the festive fixtures with three winnable games against Blackpool, Wigan and Birmingham.  ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus  Facebook: https://www....

What better way to welcome back Championship football than a 0-0 on a freezing cold afternoon in Watford? We look back on a battling point against a promotion challenger, as well as preview a tasty clash with Sunderland which marks 20 years at the MKM. ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups...

We're back! A quick recap of the Reading defeat from before the WC break before we launch into discussion about this weekend's upcoming return fixture against Watford.    ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussi...  Instagram: hull.city.aus

The Tigers Down Under look back on the first half of the 2014/15 season, as City embarked on their maiden European campaign, splashed out in the transfer window, and struggled to get going in the Premier League.   ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussi...  Instagram: hull.ci...

Four points from two games to start Liam Rosenior's reign as City boss was a dream start, particularly with a clean sheet away at Milwall. Regan Slater bossing Cardiff was a particular highlight, as the Tigers start to get going. A home game against Reading will see us through to the World Cup, and another 3 points would be welcomed.   ________________________________________________   T...

Back to Earth with a reality check against Blackburn and Middlesbrough, two fixtures which produced no points, one goal scored, and four conceded. A big week ahead against Milwall and Cardiff as the World Cup break looms, and new manager Liam Rosenior will have his work cut out.   ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus  Fa...

Two wins in two against Blackpool and Rotherham, and suddenly City are looking up the table! The crew look back on the two results, discuss the latest managerial news, and look ahead to two tough tests against Blackburn and Middlesbrough.   ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/aussi....

Another defeat against Birmingham and City are now just one point above the drop zone. It's still early in the season but danger signs are incredibly evident. The crew look ahead to two crunch fixtures against Blackpool and Rotherham where a win is a must.   ________________________________________________   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HullCityAFCAus  Facebook: https://www.facebook...
