Anytime I see hull city, I remember Jay Jay Okocha.

I wish them best of luck

Jay Jay got them promoted but his contract wasn't renewed. So he did not play for hull in the EPL.

I wish them speed relegation next season.

I hate ingrates.

Imagine I heard Arsenal fans will do a parade in Uyo next weekend..

Just go to any these English clubs page and celebrate more than them they will start reminding you to support your local clubs and leave theirs to them.

i will love to, seriously. infact a thread on daily update of nigeria football. i ran a blog back then and it started gaining abit of recognition but my job stopped me from doing more on it. am a Manchester united fan and also a rangers of Enugu fan as well, we need to promote our football. i follow nigeria football even with my tight schedule from amateur. to NLO 1 and 2 to national league, my elder brother a mech engr played part time for rangers mid 90s while schooling, infact they pleaded with my dad to allow him continue but my dad insisted on him getting his degree before anything his a comptroller now and still play Sunday football in abuja. i also have my friends who played all there football career in nigeria some built houses and bought car as well. this is some people lively hood we need to promote it. i will try create the thread for this and tag you as well.

Same here, I followed the league very well too. A United and Enyimba fan.
Got so sad as to how Enyimba has deteriorated under Kanu Nwankwo who will all believe should know many things about football and it's management.
.
Honestly I missed the days of Felix Anyansi Agwu. It was success all thru for Enyimba thru out his tenure.

Congrats to them. This would have been Southampton if they didn't get themselves expelled from the finals. So the list is now complete; Coventry city, Ipswich Town and Hull city. At least one of them will return to the championship

what did Southampton do..I am surprised I thought it was hull against Southampton in d final

Hull City: the 'throwing' team back then when the original Delap was still balling

dats delaps father in Chelsea..that guy was a big problem

Hausa:
On Southampton, we need to, in our prayers, pray for the spirit of self-sabotage...
Where we'll be doing everything right, and then use our own hands to ruin everything - by words or action.

Because Southampton would probably have played today and would probably have won.
But just look at.
Not even an opportunity to participate.

Their actions have brought disappointment to the fans and owners.
It also meant they lost millions in money.
Unfortunate.

What did they do?

They used to have one Brazilian Geovanni, a very good player those days.

My bad! Thought he was later signed by Hull then. Rory Delap gave us tough time then

Hull City make dramatic return to Premier League

Hull players celebrate on the final whistle in the English Championship play-off final football match between Hull City and Middlesbrough at Wembley Stadium in London on May 23, 2026. Hull won the game 1-0. (Photo by Paul ELLIS / AFP)

Hull City were promoted to the Premier League in dramatic fashion as Oli McBurnie’s last-gasp strike sealed a 1-0 win over Middlesbrough in the Championship play-off final on Saturday.

McBurnie punished a mistake from Middlesbrough goalkeeper Sol Brynn to bag the lucrative winner in the final moments of the second half at Wembley.

Coming back to chop relegation is as better than remaining there.

Ciscogod:
I don’t think so . Hull city do disturb Arsenal back then . They are no ride for Arsenal

If they're good as you claim, they shouldn't be in the championship battling for play offs.

Nastrademus:
Fortunately that was the match I watch today, borough played one of their best today, hull city's goal was a lucky 95th minute goal, I felt so bad for Middleborough

Football is a funny sport. You don't need to always dominate to win.

Where did I say they are good ? I said they do disturb Arsenal back then . I said it because I’m an Arsenal fan

True talk; this and many others. Congratulations to Hull City though.

Lol! Nor be only promotion from Nigeria national league to the premier league them go talk about, them go also talk about promotion from local government competitions to State government competitions.

What should be ur headache now and that of every other Nigerians especially the common Nigerians is the issue of insecurity ravaging the country and the useless governments of the day damaging the country.

Wetin be EPL champion?
Abi you take them gather 6 points or you no gather?
Leave long talk of champion.
You no be de first , you no go still be de last.

You don't know the gap between the revenue premier league teams generate and championship and lower leagues. The one year they'll spend in premiership will help their finances better than championship

I smell jealousy.
Abeg celebrate success, so that success go also reach your side.
