Are you a family member or an ancestor in one of the 100's of pictures?
Given that Hull is the largest urban region, one might argue that Hull City AFC is somewhat of a sleeping giant.
The club, whose supporters may well be proud of its lengthy history, has never fielded a squad in the top division. This book tells the Tigers' journey from the club's founding in 1904 to the present, illuminating that history with more than 200 top-notch photos.
This collection, which combines squad photos, action pictures, player portraits, cartoons, programme covers, and other noteworthy memorabilia, gives fans a taste of the club's historical highs and lows. Though many other promotions or relegation seasons and significant matches are also featured, the 1930 FA Cup semi-final, the divisional championships in 1932–1933, 1948–1949, and 1965–1966, and the Associate Members Cup final in I984 are of particular significance.
Great players who have played for the team, such as Chris Chilton, Ken Wagstaff, Cordon Wright, and Raich Carter, are given extra recognition. Chris Elton, a devoted Tigers supporter and seasoned football journalist, provides commentary for each image.
Anyone who has an interest in the Hull City Football Club will love this collection. While younger followers will see an intriguing view of their club's distinctive history, older supporters will find many memories resurrected by these images.
