    Thanks for asking.

    No way will I make it in person tomorrow. We are all feeling really sorry for ourselves binge watching netflix and dosing up on lemsips etc. :mask:

    Sure we will all be fighting fit in no time.

    Lots of rest is very good for viruses. Sleep yourself better. I hope you all recover soon. @Idlebantam@Idlebantam as well.

    And then see us rioting in disgust, after a mass pitch invasion by the Bradford “30”.

    That’ll teach the interlopers ;)

    Only the inhabitants of Hull would see a trip to Bradford on a summers evening glamourous

    I reckon the nice weather and pay on the day will entice a few extra people - going for a 7,000 attendance with 2,000 from Hull

    It's not enticing me. Nice six mile walk and a couple of pints in the Ling Bob is tonight's agenda

    Course it’s a derby. It’s always been a Yorkshire derby.

    Even Hull’s official Twitter seems to think it is, but they’re wrong too, right?

    For me a derby is based on proximity. It suggests two clubs are in close geographical proximity to each other.

    They're just trying to find an angle to make it interesting. Mind I suppose for them, any match is almost a derby given nothing is near Hull.

    Have you had the pleasure of visiting Hull, in comparison Bradford or should I say the Manningham area is Shangri-La.

    Really. You want me to list out 25 clubs within a 70 mile radius of Bradford?

    You do realise Liverpool is 68 miles from Bradford?

    I'd take that if we can get our first win of the season and a potential second round tie to earn us some cash. We need something to build off following our start.

    Yeah go on. Stick to ones we are likely to/ have a record of playing. Derbies are based on history. Hence why Hull is one and Man City isnt
