Hull City news

For the first time in the club’s history, Hull City play top-flight football in the 2008-09 campaign.

The Tigers, founded in 1904, won last season’s play-off final against Bristol City at Wembley - taking just five campaigns to go from the bottom to the top division.

Hull, who’s regular colours are black and amber, have played at the KC Stadium since 2002 having moved from their previous home Boothferry Park.

Key players for the 2008-09 campaign include George Boateng, Geovanni, Bernard Mendy, Peter Halmosi and Boaz Myhill.

Former Hull players that enjoy a legendary status include Dean Windass, Keith Edwards and Stuart Elliott.
