Squad16 Nov 2026

A knee injury of the worst kind for Bobby Moore

17 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Hull City lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match14 Nov 2026

Hull City leave it late against Preston

Ninety minutes of very little, and then everything at once. The winner arrived in the 86th, and Preston spent what remained of the match appealing to the referee rather than chasing the ball.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Babis Kostoulas: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Hull City have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Oli McBurnie in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Hull City this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings16 Nov 2026

Ryan Giles runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 20. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

The terraces16 Nov 2026

The crowd has taken to Mohamed-Ali Cho

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Player ratings16 Nov 2026

Tim Iroegbunam shuts the door

Defensive actions: 20, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Match14 Nov 2026

Mohamed-Ali Cho the difference as Hull City beat Preston

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Mohamed-Ali Cho. 1‑0 against Preston, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Squad16 Nov 2026

A row about effort at Hull City

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Matthew Targett was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Bobby Moore damages knee ligaments — 25 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 25 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

The dugout9 Nov 2026

Charlie Hughes keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Hull City may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Tempers go at Hull City

Oli McBurnie was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Giovanni Leoni falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Ryan Giles reaches 200 appearances

200 games in the shirt. Nobody sets out to build a record like that; it happens to a certain kind of player at a certain kind of club, and this town knows what it has.

Player ratings9 Nov 2026

Ninety minutes of Hidemasa Morita at his very best

Marked 8.28. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Hull City.

Player ratings9 Nov 2026

Nobody could get near Mohamed Belloumi

Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The dugout9 Nov 2026

No hiding place for Kieran Dowell

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Kieran Dowell, and the manager let it.

The dugout9 Nov 2026

Oli McBurnie knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Hull City, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Bobby Moore damages knee ligaments — 35 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 35 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match28 Oct 2026

Hull City through in the cup

A 2‑1 win over Watford, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Mohamed Belloumi runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 33. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Babis Kostoulas scores twice — 9.22

Two goals and a mark of 9.22 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Market2 Nov 2026

Tim Iroegbunam wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Hull City hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Ryan Giles makes the wrong kind of headline

Dealt with internally, which is the phrase a club uses when it would rather nobody asked twice. He will be fined, he will apologise, and he will play on Saturday.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Tempers go at Hull City

Nobel Mendy was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match31 Oct 2026

A bad afternoon for Hull City against Southampton

1‑2 to Southampton, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The terraces2 Nov 2026

Hull City supporters have found a favourite in Babis Kostoulas

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 19-year-old it feels ownership of. Babis Kostoulas has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

In brief
