Musician recalls early family memories supporting Hull City
A Rosellas rhythm guitarist and lifelong Hull City fan recalled following the club through family ties — noting that his father is a massive Hull City fan who follows them up and down the country, leaving him little choice — leading to early memories such as his first-ever match, a pre-season friendly against Newcastle United at the KC Stadium that ended in a 1-0 victory with a goal from Bryan Hughes while a very young Andy Carroll was reportedly on the bench for Newcastle. Another early memory includes the 2006-07 season when Dean Windass scored against Cardiff City and sent Leeds down. That era set the foundation for subsequent promotions, including the 2008 play-off final victory over Bristol City featuring Deano’s goal to take them to the top flight for the first time in club history, and a late-season promotion secured earlier in the year when Oli McBurnie scored in the 95th minute. The supporter considers himself fortunate to have lived through every season the club has spent in the top flight.
