The scrutiny sharpens at Hull City
Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Hull City is running low.
Match26 Feb 2028
A hiding for Hull City
Beaten 1‑4 by Newcastle United, and beaten everywhere it matters. The inquest starts on the training pitch on Monday morning.

Lucas Bergvall in a row with a teammate

Inquest at Hull City

Benjamin Richardson faces the questions
“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Benjamin Richardson after 1‑4, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Nobody could get near Mohamed-Ali Cho
Successful dribbles: 14. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Bookings catch up with Tim Iroegbunam
One yellow too many, and a match watched from the stand. The most avoidable absence in football, and Hull City will feel it on Saturday.
Market28 Feb 2028
No place for Cathal McCarthy in the plan
“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Cathal McCarthy has his answer from Hull City; what he does with it is the next window’s story.
In brief
- Squad 4 past Pascal Loretz
- Market The Tim Iroegbunam talk will not go away
