    A mate of mine is a Burnley fan, and he said their away form has improved because they are playing the same away as they are at home. Have to agree that Tom needs to revert to playing further forward, and with Clucas back hopefully that will allow him to get forward, as we missed his industry in the Burnley game.

    Similar to the reverse fixture - Burnley felt two points dropped after late Snodgrass equaliser; this time Keane's equaliser took two points off Hul; when most fans would have been happy with a 1-0 win.

    It would have been better points-wise if both games had been 1-0 home wins.

    I still think your home fixtures give you a decent chance of survival....Sunderland and Boro down for me with one of Palace, Hull or fast-fading Bournemouth.

    It was nothing like the reverse fixture at all, WE dropped two points that day - we gave you a footballing lesson with more possession, more corners and more shots on target; you went a goal a goal up with your only piece of quality in the whole of the 90 minutes. If one of our forwards had brought their shooting boots we'd have been out of sight long before you scored.

    I only meant points-wise.....when you are at home and take the lead with less than 20 minutes left, you'd hope you could see it out for 3 points.

    We got lucky with a penalty as we hadn't had a decent chance all game.

    We equalised with a Snodgrass free kick in 93rd/94th minute.

    Nope, you're right. He's saying the games are nothing alike, when in both the home team scored with their only real chance of the match.

    Whereas I was putting the Burnley fan right about the away fixture - when you quote my post try and stay on topic, you antipodean tit.

    You said the games were nothing alike and I was pointing out they actually were. You're the only one not understanding.

    Both games should have finished 1-0......so both Burnley and Hull would now be a point better off.

    Bollox - we'd be 4 points better off and you'd be 2 points worse - now be a good boy and get back to Clitheroe or wherever you come from

    To be fair I was at both games, and away we were the better side, even though Defour scored against the run of play goal, with the chances we had we should have won it.

    As lots of teams winning, including ourselves recently, more possession, corners and shots on target mean absolutely nothing. The only thing that decides games is shots scored. We aren't like some sports which give marks for artistic impression.
