By: Daryl | May 25th, 2009Something to read while you enjoy Phil Brown’s Prem survival special karaoke performance at the KC Stadium.
Congratulations to Hull. Proof that granting The Offside permission to use your crest is the only surefire to avoid relegation.
And I’ll say this about the already infamous Phil Brown singalong: It comes across a lot better from the fan’s perspective than it does on TV.

It seems winning is not everything. I turned on the TV immediately after the Hull/Man U game was over. I saw Hull players and supporterS high-fiving and the like. I thought they had just beaten Man U. See, the goal of some teams is not to win the PL but just to avoid relegation. Some smaller teams will keep on “parking the bus” when playing the big 4 because it works. “If it ain’t broke don’t try to fix it.”

That’ll the bus-parking team who went to Arsenal and won, scored three at Old Trafford in a 4-3 defeat, got a point at Stamford Bridge in a match they dominated second half, and took a two-goal lead at Anfield in the first 15 minutes.
Don’t you just love those media myths that go unquestioned?

Deftly, I just hope you are not replying to my comment: “Some smaller teams will keep on “parking the bus” when playing the big 4 because it works.”
I didn’t say that Hull are one the teams that “park the bus”. Ask Wenger he will give you names of teams that “don’t take risks”.
