Title: Good luck to the Tigers in the FA Cup Final
Post by: gringo on May 16, 2014, 09:51:AM
    I am going to Wembley tomorrow for what will hopefully be the biggest day in the 110 year history of Hull City. One of the favourite terrace chants of Tigers fans is the self deprecating ditty sung to the tune of Tom Hark which is as follows,
            No silverware but we don't care,
            We follow Hull City everywhere
   a reference to the fact that in our 110 year history we have won no trophies.
    After tomorrow we will hopefully have to change the lyrics . Wish us luck (we will probably need it).
    Up the Tigers  ;D ;D ;D

Very few lpool fans will want Hull to win cos of Steve Bruce to be fair. Not just his Manchester United allegiance but derogatory comments towards lpool and lpool fans he has made while manager of Birmingham, Wigan, Sunderland, Hull

  Was not aware of any derogatory comments made by Bruce about Liverpool and their fans but whatever they are I am sure that those sentiments are not representative of the feelings of the majority of Hull supporters Petey.

I certainly like and respect Hull fans especially things they have done with regards Hillsborough.

However, Steve Bruce drags my opinion of the team lower so couldn't possibly want them to win.

Each to their own, I shall support Hull but for the fans and their support over Hillsborough, it would  make them sooo happy.  Forget Steve Bruce, who cares, we have Brendan  ;D ;D

I can only imagine the dreadful abuse Steve Bruce has endured at Anfield, over the years.

Quite often, the abuse heard at football grounds goes well beyond 'banter'.  I find it embarrassing and quite a turn off.

Does that allow him to play the to play the city of pity and always the victims card.

I think not. It's one thing receiving abuse at a football ground which I'm sure pretty much every manager and high profile player receives. However comments regarding the biggest miscarriage of justice ever seen and purposive attacks on a 'self pity' city are quite different. 

Perhaps u disagree

  Whatever the outcome it will be memorable anyway thanks April. We are the underdogs and so are not going to be too disappointed if we lose but if we win Hull will be partying all week.

Oh gosh,no Maggie. I don't follow football.Not since Bill Shankley died,,as he was the best,and only manager that there ever was,,or ever will be. :(
Hull would obviously be my preference for tomorrow though.

   Good to see a few of the forum members followed the day's events. We had a joyous day and partied anyway. There were 13 of us there together (should have realised maybe bad planning going in a group of 13) all family (wife, my two youngest daughters, brother, sister and brother in law and nieces) and we all had a party all day and night. Youngest was 15, oldest was 60 and we all ended up hoarse and mostly drunk.
    As a Tigers fan you have to learn to be able to take what you can as success so on the positive side, we reached our first ever FA Cup Final, we have qualified for the Europa League for next season which means we will be playing in European competition for the first time in our history and we remain in the Premier League which makes it our most successful season ever despite losing so that is all excuse we need to claim success.
   And our favourite terrace chant can remain unchanged
      No silverware but we don't care,
      We follow Hull City everywhere.
      ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Gringo your club did you proud and I was watching the score and thought once over it was going to go to their way.  Well done to them anyway.

  Yes Susan at 2-0 up we were beginning to dare to dream but the players gave their all, the fans gave their all and it was not quite enough  :) 8)
