Once again, the Hull City Tigers are back in Premiership



Welcome back to the excitement of the Premier League Hull City, as Steve Bruce and his Tigers are back in the big circuit after a hard fought win against a hardened Owls of Sheffield Wednesday. By being, back to play against the big guns of the Premier League was a Mission Accomplished declaration by Hull City Manager.

Who perseveres endures and with the Tigers, their statement and all-around efforts throughout the Championship campaign, despite the competition in this league, Hull City finished in fourth place with 83 points. 

With a ways to go and knowing of their fate after first place Burnley, followed by Middleborough both sealed their pass automatically to Premiership.  With four squads left in Brighton- Hove Albion, Derby County, Sheffield Wednesday and Hull City. 

The race for this last spot focused in a two way playoff matches between Sheffield Wednesday against the favorites Brighton- Hove Albion and Hull City going against Derby County. After these squads staged their postseason play, two squads emerged victorious and poised to go for the ultimate of glories held in Wembley Stadium.

With Hull City by the way of dispatching the Rams of Derby County and the same story became of Sheffield Wednesday by upsetting an all-around favorite in the Seagulls of Brighton- Hove and Albion, the Championship final was set for May 29.

As the big day arrived with these two squads date with destiny, one squad and its Manager Carlos Carvahal and his Sheffield Wednesday chaps being ready to make the big jump to the big league. Still one major obstacle was on their way and it was the Tigers, but one thing the Owls did not lack was spirit and a fighting attitude.

Where do I start to tell you about this match being a much-disputed one in every minute played by both of these titans, unlucky and desperate both in a way of trying to score the winning goal which  became a nightmare for both of these squads Bosses. In a way after the second half in its entirety was shaping into a possible PK shootouts,
something that, everyone in both squads was trying to prevent.

Still these squads delight us to an excellent match all afternoon long and with one on one duel between both of these squad’s goalies, making all sorts of heroic and spectacular saves to maintain the score at zero.  

Until the 71st minute when a play sent to the area cleared by an Owl player from the area and recovering the volley was Robert Snodgrass who passed to Mo Diame who sent a 30 yard shoot whistling past the Owls goalie Westwood for the winning goal!

Despite Sheffield Wednesday all around attempts to penetrate the posts defended by the Tigers Jakupovic, with one play after another fighting for the possession of the ball, seeing a their efforts at the end in just another heartbreak.

For Hull City Manager Steve Bruce considered a sort of talisman or specialist in promotion of squads in the case of Birmingham and now Hull City, netting his forth promotion. In getting his Tigers back into the main event and once again seek the challenges of it.

One thing Steve Bruce encounters is another obstacle in his continuance at the helm of Hull City, with the current owner in Egyptian businessperson  Assem Allam currently ill and seeing the prospects of selling the club. A move that for Steve Bruce is a sort of a takeover by an American investors group, his future is a bit doubtful.

At the end, this is for Manager Steve Bruce and his actions speak loudly than words and with a CV as impressive as his do, maybe we can see his imminent return to the helm of this club it should not be a doubtful but an assuring one. Who else but Bruce delivered in this campaign at once the ticket for promotion, a playoff shield and a hefty and prolific amount of £184 million pounds?

Welcome back to Premiership Hull City AFC Tigers and Steve Bruce!
