Now this may not be a big thing for many of you. The Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool, Man City and Spurs fans etc are probably thinking so what, but we could win the FA Cup.
It is massive in Hull at the moment. We have only ever played at Wembley once, which was the play off final. We have only ever been to the FA Cup semi finals once...1930 and we lost to Arsenal.
Some may, and will, mock but nobody is going to pee on our parade, this is history in the making for The Tigers. Looking safe in the PL and a trip to Wembley. Who knows.....is it worth thinking about Europe too ?
Up The Tigers and roll on Sunday

I really hope Hull do go on and win the FA Cup, Steve Bruce has done a fine job and Hull have never won a major trophy and there fans deserve there day in the sun, also it is always nice to see another new name on the Cup.
Thank you. Pressure on though as bookies favourites to beat Sheff Utd
Still being a neutral I'd quite like Hull to win the FA Cup as well.
I disagree, if Arsenal do get past Wigan, which isn't a definite with the way they are playing. I very much think that Hull can do them in the final.
Hull winning would be nice, will be great for their fans, and I still think the FA Cup is a seriously good cup for anyone to win.
Bit surprised to read that Hull had never been in the top flight until 2008.......although seem to remember that it was often quoted that Hull was the biggest City in Europe never to have had top flight football.........don't know if that was ever true
I remember Hull being a good team in the 60s with Ken Wagstaff as their star player, but I thought they were a Div 1 team........obviously not !
Cheers Swing. That is true. Hull is a big city, and yes it was the record holder for biggest never to have played in top flight. We came close to promotion with Waggy and Chillo ( Ken Wagstaff and Chris Chilton ) in the late 60s and early 70s but not quite.
In fact the first game I went to was in 1974 at Boothferry Park. Division 2 and it ended
Hull City 2 - Manchester United 0
Good luck.
If they don't, it's either Man United or Spurs
It also depends if they get in the CL or not. If they do then the FA Cup runners up ( should Arsenal win it ) get the Europa slot, but only if Arsenal are in the CL.
It's no dilemma at all. We simply don't give a toss where those 2 clubs end up as we have only 1 thing in mind, winning it. For obvious reasons I don't want hull to win it.
I am at work. I work on the radio on Sunday afternoons so i am hosting the show from 2-7 whilst the game is on. Going to be an exciting one
Except Alan Rollins
That's obviously completely correct .. i completely forgot about that possibility ..
It was only meant to be a bit light hearted but I should know by now you take things very seriously when it comes to Spurs and Arsenal .. *stern face*
Head says Hull though, probably a dour 1-0 victory in a game where Sheffield United will work hard to contain a Hull side missing their best attacking players.
It wasn't light hearted at all just the usual bitter stuff from you lot. No Gooner gives a toss about anything else today apart from winning and all the other stuff can go hang.
I think you should ring his show!
It belonged to Plymouth anyway, Plymouth is bigger than Hull.
Hehe
