Burnley 0 Hull City 1: Stephen Quinn goal lifts Tigers to second in Championship

“Respect Tiggerjack.

A friend of mine who is a Southampton supporter called me as the final whistle went after watching the match on Sky. He said the Tigers deserved winners, Bruce got the tactics right and Quinn's goal was excellent. He also nominated Boyd was man of the match and he thought the Tigers looked the fitter team towards the end. He also was impressed with Elmohamady as classy player.

So it confirms what a good win it was and no fluke.”

“Well i can hold my head up high and say 'I WAS THERE' and never stopped singing. Shame more didn't make the effort. The sad thing is that if we get promoted then all the glory fans will be out of the woodwork and taking all the away allocations for all the big games. Me and my son as last time will miss out yet, we have followed city up and down the country this season when half of the so called 'supporters' can't be bothered. Hope City take note of just who has been following the tigers this season and doesn't pull one over the genuine supporters such as me, my lad and the other 350 City fans there at Turf Moor last night.
On the game, absolutely perfect away performance. keep a clean sheet at all costs then just pick off the opposition when the chance arises. I will take 9 more scruffy 1 nils.
The bonus is we no longer have the hex over where Burnley is concerned. We need a loud packed KC on Saturday, because Forest are bringing an army of supporters. Supporters that follow their team through thick, and thin.”

“One game at a time. Dreams can come true :-)”

“Go on Hull, you ******* dancer!”

“Forgot to say...Respect to those who went! UTT!”

“Great result...all on now! Not the team I would have played...more like late on.... But who cares! SB clearly doesn't fancy Fathi and you wonder whether he was an Allam signing, after SBs one signing comment. Maybe he'll come into his own as pitches improve...?
Difficult game next as opposition confidence is high and a canny manager. Hope SB has got the measure! All on now...COYH!!”

“Tigerholic. I would not call it an ugly win.
It was played for and got. The night was atrocious and cold and City mastered the conditions. Burnley never gave the impressions of scoring.”

“Great result!
Seems like SB has two modes of play for the Tigers
Solid defence and try and win 1:0!
Attacking formation - lots of goals - at both ends!
Definitely squeaky b*m time!”

“To the 356,I'm pleased you got your reward for a slightly scary journey on a horrible,unseasonal night.
Personally,after putting my 3 kids to bed my heart was pounding as I turned on Sky in the 55th minute.0-0.A mixture of disappointment and relief,really.
I could say many things about what I saw,but my good mood now is solely because we won an ugly,attritional game with a beautiful hit from Stephen Quinn.
We have some very good players,but also one or two who aren't Premier League standard,I feel,but that's to be expected in a Championship side,but overall we looked a difficult team to beat,with just enough class in ball retention to be a frustration for our opponents.
Well done to all the players.I posted recently that Boyd had lacked pace at Palace,which was intended as an explanation as to why,at 27,he'd not played Premier League football,but what I hadn't seen was his work-rate.
He probably plays like that anyway,but this man looks like he wants to play against Man U et al next season,and work-rate will get us close to our goal as the ability in the team is there.
It would've been easy to flunk it tonight,and I'd have taken a draw,but we've snaffled a win.Press on,boys...”

“Merlin? where are you now Merlin you total plum! Jees it was chilly there tonight. Few chances indeed but we really picked it up in the second half....simpson was great when he came on....looked really sharp. UTT!!!”
