Hull City FC Can Thank Me

So after much deliberation, I've finally discovered what's happened to Hull -- why they're diving through the PL table like Chinese Olympic divers.

That realisation just came as I'm reading of new stories about how Cesc started abusing Hull's players on the pitch after the final whistle had blown.

I mean, think of that, a 21-year old kid in street clothes comes up to all these big, tough rugby-town players and begins verbally berating them, abusing them and hurting their feelings...

...and not one of them cold decks him. No one so much as steps up to his face and tells him to shut the f--k up or he's going to get dropped. Not a shove in anger nor a finger pointed in disgust.

Nothing. The reaction from all these players as they are abused off the pitch and into the tunnel (until apparently the assistant manager decides he's the one who's had enough) is to meekly take it all in and saunter away in quiet shame.

And that's what gave me the big revelation.

Hull's problem isn't Phil Brown or his tactics. It's not the difficulty of the end-of-the-year matches.

They just apparently have no balls and no pride.

So there you go, Hull. There's your big problem. You're welcome.
