Its your buddy who for no apparent reason is making a song and dance about going tomorrow. Its a stupid topic. I am sorry I rose to the bait, which is what it obviously was.
Sorry to say it gwru but in my opinion at least, the two of you have been spoiling this site for several months with repetitive nonsense. If that is 'high and mighty' of me there it is. That is my opinion. Trying to address it makes me a worse person than I want to be but I don't like to see a potentially good forum get dragged down. It is a quandry.
In keeping with tomorrow's theme I think I am going to take a break for the sake of my own mental health. Others can reply to you if they choose to. Not that it will make any difference.

The only problem that I have with you gwru are your constantly repetitive posts, and your rather strange idea that, as a retired steelworker who goes to home games, "mean all" has this this delusion that you have a magical gift to assess ability after 90 seconds or 90 minutes
gwru is back on MM now too and already ruffling feathers. He might want to ditch this forum in favour of his erstwhile buddies on the dark side. We live in hope.
I didn't go today because I am still on holiday but I was never happy with the ground decisions. However looks like we have it a real go even hitting the post after their third, but to be honest being out of the cup is not a bad thing a distraction we do not need this season. Tom eaves with 3 goals he was awful when we had him if it is the same bloke. Players need a rest now and keep their heads up go to Oxford and not losing is a higher priority.
Been today and worst refereeing ever. Lads played very well and if we had kept 11 men on the park we would be in the hat for round 4. Disgraceful officials all round and it needs to improve. Hull management running on pitch to get Thompson sent off was out of order too.
Result didn't really matter. Played well. Good to see Lindsay back. No point going on about the referee, won't change anything. Got to regroup again at the back at Oxford.
If the management tab on the pitch the referee should have sent them off, as usual officials fail to apply the rules. The loss of Thomson for crucial games is very disappointing hence why I say the cup is a liability
We played well with 10 men Olosunde gets better my star player at the moment agree with gwru match gone now. To be honest glad there isn't a replay full back wanted just a thought can Lindsey play there.
Robbed, no two words about it. FOUR players offside when the ball was crossed for the winning goal. Handball in the build up for the first goal, officials useless yet again.
What do we expect from officials as much as var irritates fan this was what it was brought in for. The goal Blackpool.scored was clearly off side
Ddint go on matter of Principle I pay for a seat in west stand.
Looks.like we played well and seen vassell goal.on BBC sport
Onwards to Oxford
Shame we went down to ten or we’d have beaten them today.
Another good performance and signs we’ve got our act together, the officials again though were abysmal. It’s not very often you see Warne and the players react like that after a game.
In a game against a Championship side it's a throwback to the Championship days. You feel we played well and gave everything but also feel like you are on the wrong side of all the fifty-fifty calls and ultimately don't get what you deserve.
On the plus side it was another performance to be proud of. Also, saying 'we can concentrate on the league' used to be a bit of a joke, but in these days of the cup competitions being de-valued it is probably a real positive. The negative is the absence of Thompson at Oxford, which is a real blow.
Dont give 2 hoots about the result, FA Cup like all other non league games irrelevant to all outside the Big Money Premier League top 4. What i am concerned about is Thompsons red card. We were down to the bone defensively before today, who are we gonna play now ?
Looking forward to Warnes loan striker and winger loan signings whilst we have F'all cover at the back.
Well done to the lads today sounded like a proper challenge to the 14 guys Hull had on the pitch.
Was there. Seen highlights. Definitely a sending off. Couldn't see nothing wrong with Hull's 2nd or 3rd goals unless 3rd goal it was further back in the build up. May as well go wrong in a cup game. Got to find a full back at Oxford. I'd like to see Warney take shackles off Hinds & Lamy. Today couldn't see Ladapo Morris Hastie Clarke coming on & changing anything.
Surely it was 5 players offside we can't keep blaming the officials when we lose. In the 2nd half only one team was going to win it due to the extra player they had. The 10 that were left played well just the old numbers game we just couldn't play higher up the pitch.i reckon our top notch recruitment guy needs to bring a player who can cover defence or has Olosunde got a brother. Not too bad In family stand talking to one of my old workmates plus someone else i know someone likes me i know it might come as a shock to some of you on here. There are encouraging signs at last at the NYS the players look as if they are clicking into gear nothing to fear in league1 onwards and upwards.
Lots wrong with today. Having to leave home at 0900 for a home game and drinking at 1100 in the NY Tavern is just not what football is all about. Are we really expected to listen to the advice of overpaid idiots such as Dele Alli about such an important issue as mental health? How many more incompetent referees are we going to get at NYS this year - the frequency is sufficient to give even the most balanced individuals mental trauma.
The performance by RUFC was first class. There was a distinct gap in class and quality and Hull were nowhere near us with 11 men, they even struggled to contain our 10 men at times. Not a clear enough view to determine if Thompson's red was justified - if I'd been in my regular seat I would have had a first class view! Very clear view of the Hull keeper handling the ball outside the area - unbelievably missed by the Ref - would that have been a Red?
Mystified by the amount of deliberation between officials over the sending off and their second goal. Suggests that there was some doubt about both but of course, both decisions go against us. Was VAR in operation today? No evidence on the video screen. If not, who was the Ref talking with?
Finally, I must come to the defence of the lino on the east side. She had a great game and I think she got every decision spot on. No way she could have adjudged the goalie's handball as perspective was against her.
The FA Cup is not was it used to be - the FA have seen to that!

"There are encouraging signs at last at the NYS the players look as if they are clicking into gear nothing to fear in league1 onwards and upwards."
Nothing to fear except a team challenging for automatic promotion who have scored 41 goals to date and we dont have enough fit defenders to play a five a side match !
