Just the one match since our last newsletter after City’s game against Ipswich was called off due to the weather last Saturday.
Tuesday night saw City put in arguably their worst performance of the season in a 2-1 defeat to Millwall. The first half really was one to forget as Millwall took the lead inside a minute after some shocking defending and then doubled it with a looped header with nobody in black and amber on the post. The second half was slightly better and the goal scoring return of Abel Hernandez much welcome.
Nigel Adkins publicly criticised the players after the game. It isn’t in doubt that they deserved criticising after such a poor performance however whether this was best done in the media only time will tell.
This Saturday Norwich City are the visitors to the KCOM, a game that on paper is winnable and one City must take some points from if they are to keep their cushion to the relegation places. Here’s your update from the Trust this week…

Just a point behind the league leaders but with 2 games in hand, the Tigresses will be looking to reclaim top-spot.
As usual, kick off time at the Hull University Sports Ground is 2pm and if you’ve never been before, get yourself down there and cheer the girls on.
