Nah I wouldn't wish Hull on anyone. It's one fucking grim place.

I liked the old iron bridge 'Boothferry Bridge?' - had a real oldy woldy charm about it.


other than that - yup! a dreary place to pass through never mind live.

Beverley is a gorgeous little town less than 10 miles from Hull. Could live like a king there on footballer's salary.

Just back from an entertaining 4-6 victory v Forest Green Rovers. :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

Was mightily impressed by Daniel Crowley, another midfielder. He was so assurred on the ball with superb touch and vision, outshone all else I thought by a mile.

As for the others Akbom Hayden and Zelalem were pretty good too. No "1st team" players were there, was an U 21 team really. Another goal from a set piece though :roll: .

Crowley signed pro yesterday
