Just got in from the game and also just watched this from Twitter. Granted there is contact with the head, but Gale is falling into the tackle and Watts is hardly swinging his arm. Penalty should have been enough. Irrespective that Gale did not return, it was massively coincidental that from just about deaths door he got to his feet sharpish as soon as the red was shown.
Anyway, we kept the best attacking team at bay long enough to win today. Huge backs to the wall mentality. Great team spirit, well done Hull.

Did anyone get a clear view of cas try in first half near posts. Looked like he was short from south east corner and the way hull players reacted would suggest the same but as sky replays often prove it's sometimes a clear try when you watch it back

Credit to Radford also for interchanges today. Huge boost when he brought Sika and Ellis back on together then Taylor just afterwards. Tricky to manage as well. Thought Fonua was terrific again today, a real handful for their top drawer three quarters and worked tirelessly.

Well done today Hull. 100% desrrved to play 60minutes with a man down. Not sure what is wrong with us at the moment but since Wigan away we have been off the boil a lot. Too many mistakes.
1 point seperates the top 4 I believe at the half way point of the regular season. Should make for a fun run in.
See you back at our place. Get your tickets as soon as they come on sale as im sure it will be a sell out.

Good post apart from the Watts Red card, never a sending off, if he was up right fair enough, but Watts goes to tackle him around the chest, the player tackles him and brings him down, nothing Watts could do, I'd say the same if it had happened the other way around.

Best following from cas ever seen. Didn't fancy us before game and when herd Houghton still out feared the worst so absolutely buzzing at that performance with 12 men. Thought you still looked dangerous especially when Roberts was sending those bullet passes out to our right but somehow we scrambled . Reckon you would still win alot of games playing as you did today but as last season showed when our effort and desire is 100 % it takes alot to beat us.
