More or less thanked you for it, didn't I? And noted its subtlety - or that my trolldar has been badly damaged by relegation, which amounts to the same thing.
Tbf my scenario is fractionally more likely than Cal train's. Both are much, much less likely than Marco Silva and his successors learning to live with it, of course.
I know 'trolldar' doesn't really work, btw.

Dont really know what his problem is, the pitch looked alright as far as I could tell. Saw the highlights of the Wigan football game and that pitch looked a lot worse. I will say that I was questioning the scheduling of the two games as well but it didn't seem to harm the round ball game result so middle finger to mister Silva...

I suppose the sliding tackles the wendyball players put in doesn't have an effect on the pitch.wake up silva and get real.

Shamallam playing silly buggers again and using a mouthpiece that hasn't got a clue about the makeup of the Council owned stadium. Just wish the mad Egyptian would clear out.
I would expect any sub-standard, rutted, pitch to give the home side the advantage when all the other clubs in that league (bar Swansea) play on pitches akin to crown green bowling surfaces. The fact is though that until yesterday, Hull had won just 3 out of their last 13 home league fixtures, which suggests they are not making the most of home advantage.
IMHO, when managers start blaming pitches (and officials), they are merely looking to deflect criticism away from their own coaching inadequacies. If you start the season with a pitch that you know isn't going to be perfect, then coach your players to use that fact to their advantage.
There were a couple of comments on Blunderside after the game on Friday about the pitch being set up for football. Knowing what a vindictive, thin skinned piece of jobbie Allam is, it isn't beyond the realms of possibility that he put Silva up to this. That City won somewhat lessened the impact of this petty point scoring.
