You are spot on with your "big time Charlie" theory we have no god given right to win anything and the quicker we as a team and supporters accept that the better!!

Thanks for this weeks excellent diary Wilf, all points are spot on, it looks like we'll have to give up on "club Hull" concept for the time being and face up to the fact that with the odd exception the players are not good enough - that is the root of our problem.

Massive thanks Wilf, don't know how you do it, but I'm glad you do. It's the only thing we can rely on - knowing you will tell it how it is.

Great as always. Certainly bittersweet reading about and remembering some of the great games of the 80's.

Great diary this week Wilf. I was thoroughly depressed on the way home, had had a crap week at work and that just topped it off. I was at the Barrow game in 1983 in the 3D, really amazing day, probably only topped for me by the 1982 Elland road replay, JPT final at Headingley and Cardiff 2005. Great memories, wonder if we'll have them again?
