You might recall about a year ago when Hull City visited Eastlands and allowed Manchester City to score four first-half goals. That’s when Phil Brown infamously pulled this stunt:
Before this incident, Hull City had collected 27 points in 18 matches and were the surprise club of the Premier League season. In their last 20 matches, Hull managed only one win and 8 points in their last 20, and they only avoided an instant return to the Coca-Cola Championship because of Newcastle United’s general incompetence. So when Hull returned to Eastlands yesterday and Jimmy Bullard’s penalty leveled the score at 1-1… well, just watch…
Even Phil Brown couldn’t stop laughing. Well played, Mr. Bullard. Well played.
The halftime talk on the pitch was widely regarded as the beginning of Hull’s downward spiral last season. Could this bit of fun lift Hull out of the relegation battle? Either way, there needs to be some reason to watch Hull aside from wondering why Jozy Altidore doesn’t look like he’s doing much out there.
