Prediction: 19th
It’s been a busy old summer at the KC Stadium. The club have dropped the A.F.C from their name and will now be known as Hull City Tigers, a move that will instantly see them become the most popular club in the Premier League, selling millions of replica shirts all over the world! Genius really.
They’ve not been shy in the transfer market either. Tom Huddlestone joined today and Jake Livermore looks likely to follow his Spurs team-mate on a season-long loan deal. Add to that the signings of Curtis Davies and Danny Graham, to name two, and it’s clear they’re trying to make a go of it. However, despite all the new faces, I still don’t think they’ll have enough about them and will probably go straight back down, though I can see them putting up a fight.
