Hull City A.F.C. History and Other Info

Located in Kingston upon Hull, East Reading of Yorkshire, and founded in 1904, Hull City currently plays in the prestigious FA Premier League. This is the second time in their history that Hull City is part of top tier English football. Also known as "The Tigers", Hull City’s shining moment was back in 1930, when they reached the semi-finals of the FA Cup. The team mascot is "Roary the Tiger", and they play at their home ground of KC Stadium.

Hull City A.F.C. Stadium

KC, short for Kingston Communications Stadium, was conceived in the late ’90’s and opened its doors in 2002. This multi purpose facility was completed at the cost of GB 44 million, and is named after the stadium’s sponsors. Along with Hull A.F.C, the venue also accommodates rugby league football club, Hull FC. Also known as ‘The Circle’, the stadium can comfortably seat 25,404 spectators, and has played host to musical acts Elton John and The Who. The stadium’s pitch consists of grass interwoven with astro-turf, and was utilized for several England Under 21 association football games. If England wins the bid to host the 2018 FIFA World Cup, the city of Hull will submit KC Stadium as the main venue.

Hull City made their much anticipated debut back in 1904, holding Notts County to an impressive 2-2 draw. They made an entry into the Second Division the following year, and competed against the likes of Manchester United and Chelsea. Hull would finish that season in 5th place, a dismal placing considered by some, but to loyal fans, this was much improvement for the friendly game riddled Hull City. The club continued to struggle for many years to come, but did have some impressive outings and accolades.

By the early part of the 1980’s, Hull was relegated to 4th Division football. The team went through managerial changes and financial setbacks, which only added to probably the lowest point for Hull. With nothing to lose, Hull set out to revamp their dwindling squad and club ranking. A recruitment drive saw Don Robinson and Colin Appleton come in to help the squad from the top. Along with top players, Brian Marwood, Steve McLaren, Billy Whitehurts, and power scorer, Les Mutrie, Hull entered the 3rd division in 1983.

The ’80’s and ’90’s would not see much difference for ‘The Tigers’. They continued to struggle through relegation, management and ownership changes, as well as more financial despair. Hull would have to sell notable players like Dean Windass and Andy Payton in order to keep their club alive. By the late ’90’s, Hull’s future was in jeopardy, and advancement out of the 3rd division did not look promising.

With a new chairman, and an influx of funds into the franchise, Hull was able to slightly rebound at the start of the ‘01-’02 season. This did not last too long, as the club finished in 15th place, at the end of the ‘02-’03 season. The following years did see some much needed success for Hull City. They came in runners-up for Division 3, at the end of the ‘03-04 season. Hull would also place second for League One in ‘04-’05. Hull managed to avoid further relegation for the next few years, as they played steadily and carefully. By the ‘06-’07 season, Hull City’s rise from the bottom divisions of English football to the top tier was legendary.

Hull City A.F.C. Manager

Led by current manager Phillip "Phil" Brown, Hull City rebounded with impressive showings and secured a spot in the top level. Phil, the former manager of Derby County and The Bolton Wanderers, used his extensive experience to bring out the best in Hull City, and took the team to the upper tier of English football in May of 2008. Under Brown, Hull City defeated Bristol City at Wembley Stadium in the Championship play-off final. The result was historic, as the Tigers would enter the main fray of English football for the first time in the club’s 104-year history.~This was attributed to the ‘never surrender’ policy of Brown. Phil played Right and Full-back for most of his football career and was simply sensational. He was known to be quick, agile, and a true team player and sportsman. He led many teams to decisive victories, including Bolton and Blackpool. Brown brings that same tenacity to Hull City, and was awarded the ‘Premier League Manager of the Month’, in September of last season.

Today, Hull City remain a legitimate football club. With a legion of loyal and dedicated fans, Hull is very much respected for fighting tooth and nail to better themselves over the years. They have fought long and hard to make it back to the top, and this is the exact type of tenacity that has made Hull a fan favorite in the Premier League. Hull believes that without struggle, there is no progress, and their drive to be the best is much appreciated, respected, and emulated by other clubs.

As the 2009-2010 season is underway, Captain Ian Ashbee leads a team comprised of international stars and experienced players. Hull looks to Jozy Altidore, on loan from Villareal, to handle the strike zone while Michael Turner provides impenetrable defense. After impressive showings in the last year’s Barclay’s Asia Trophy tourney, they hope to carry that same momentum into the current season of play.
