    The First Premier League Season 2008/09

    That half time thing at Man City killed everything. You could see the players' faces when he made them sit on the pitch and it was obvious the dressing room was gone after that. But yeah the first few months were unreal. My favourite memory is actually the Fulham game on the opening day. Walking...

    The Deep — Is It Still Worth Visiting in 2026?

    Annual pass is the way to go, 100%. We got ours last year and it paid for itself after two visits. It’s also worth checking their website for event days — they do special feeding sessions and behind-the-scenes tours that are really good. My tip: go first thing on a weekday morning if you can...

    Top 5 Pubs in Hull City Centre

    The Minerva in summer is perfection. Absolutely perfection. My only addition would be the Head of Steam near the station — brilliant beer selection and a good spot before or after getting the train. Also the George Hotel on the Land of Green Ginger (best street name in England by the way) is a...

    Premier League Away Days: What Was It Like?

    For those of us who were lucky enough to follow Hull in the Premier League, those away days were something else. Going to grounds we'd only ever seen on TV and watching our lot play against the best teams in the country. My standout was Old Trafford. I'd watched Manchester United on telly my...

    The Deep — Is It Still Worth Visiting in 2026?

    The Deep has been Hull’s flagship attraction since it opened in 2002, and it’s still the first thing most people mention when you say “things to do in Hull.” But is it still worth the visit in 2026? I took my kids last month and honestly, yes. The main tank is still absolutely stunning —...

    Is Hull the Most Underrated City in England?

    I saw another one of those “worst places to live” lists online the other day and Hull was on it again. Written by someone who’s probably never set foot here. It proper winds me up. Every time Hull gets mentioned nationally it’s either a joke or something negative. But the reality is completely...

    Joe Gelhardt finally showing what he's all about - can he kick on now?

    Absolutely buzzing about Joe's recent form! That goal against Preston was pure class. He's got the pace, the finishing, and now he's getting the confidence. If he keeps this up, we might have a proper Championship striker on our hands. Just needs to stay fit and keep his head down. Could see him...

    What a Win! Preston Away - Your Thoughts on the Performance?

    Preston away Tuesday - should be a decent game. They're solid at home but we've been playing alright lately. Reckon a draw's realistic, 1-1 maybe? Would take a point away at Deepdale tbh. Keeps us ticking over 👍 Anyone else watching?
