Well done to Hull on gaining promotion to the Premier League today.
Good to see that at least two of the three teams promoted try and play entertaining football.

Hull have a supposed decent little fighting firm, will be good to see their strength and numbers, the Northern Bastards

And I have to say the goal they won it with was a beauty, worthy of goal of the season.

The guy who crossed it (dont know his name) did not panic when confronted by a load of Bristol City players, he saw Windass running in, chipped a beautiful ball to him, and Windass hit it on the volley.

Goal, if it is still there on youtube

Have to agree it was a great goal. It was Fraizer Campbell who chipped the ball across, he's on loan from Man U.

Doesn't bode well for Hull that of their 3 best players 2 of them total over 70 years old and the third belongs to someone else!!

But, hey, its a big city with a big catchment area they may have a chance of surviving

Yes well done to hull its good to see a club playing in the top league for the first time,also the manager phil brown shook hands with the bristol players straight after the final whistle which showed humillity unlike some more experienced managers out their,not so sure about a minority of hull fans who have a reputation lets say and even cause trouble at rugby league games.

Well done to Hull.Fully deserved it,and what a goal to win the match.Bristol City passed the ball around well,but they just lacked that creativity that Frazier Campbell had.I'm sure Gary Johnson will pick up his lads and make another promotion campaign for next season.

As for Hull.I'm sure they'll learn lessons from Derby and will have the financial backing from their owners,and have a good chance of staying in the Premiership.It'll be tough and i'm sure they'll settle for 17th place.

Welcome to the Premiership,Tiger's fans !drink!
