A rewrite of our post Angry Cops And Belgians, our account of that famous Europa League Knockout clash between Sporting Lokeren and Hull City when the Black & Amber Army came up against the Flanders Law Enforcement. We’re now taking the same match to tell the story of an average FBTG away day. Continue reading
A wall of aggression. A barrier of taxpayers’ money. One single channel holding 2,000 fans in complete anarchy. Glassware continued to rain down indiscriminately. A middle-aged woman behind me shook with fear. Two men burst through the crowd, one supporting the other, blood rolling down his face. It wasn’t a fight because it wasn’t fair. Our travelling support suffered greatly; it was more than humiliation Continue reading
Scrolling through the usual tags, we found an array of alternative shirt designs of national and club teams. There are the usual suspects, Man Utd, PSG, Brasil, FC Bayern. But to our pleasant surprise, Hull City AFC also made the list. A short browse later and it turns out that ESB Design are a Chilean graphic design team with a real talent for striking kit designs – please check them out!
As a small, provincial club, it’s somewhat flattering to see a designer thousands of miles away not only know your club, but also be invested enough to want to dedicate some of their work to it.

What was originally suspected to be a tooth-abscess turned out to be a cancerous tumour, later determined to be terminal.
Megan was an avid Hull City fan, and the tragic news shocked City’s fan base as her health Continue reading
Cycle, Ski and Hull City.
And meat and beer. Away Days in Austria.
A flashback 7 days ago to the Hull City clash with Torino FC in the MyPhone Austria Stadion. A collection of ultra stickers from the various supporters. An honour to be at the stadium of Austria Salzburg, the team at the forefront of the fight Against Modern Football.
We would like to point out that Stiegl did not sponsor us for this post.
Our FBTG 5 € tribute during the pre-season game in Kufstein. The new season starts tomorrow with Hull City being the host team of the very first game. We continue without this man, and though his nose is crooked and his head is fat (as so many fans like to point out), his legacy will live in our club forever.
Thank you Mr Bruce. You will always be welcome in the Hull family.
About Last Night. Hull City vs Çaykur Rizespor, played in the Kufstein Arena. Well, two Continue reading
