History

Hull City Association Football Club was founded in June 1904.

Hull City's first season as a professional football club consisted only of friendly matches, as due to the time of founding, Hull were unable to apply for membership to The Football League for the 1904–05 season.[3] These early matches were played at The Boulevard, the old home of rugby league side Hull FC.[4] On 1 September 1904, Hull's debut match took place against Notts County; with 6000 in attendance at The Boulevard, Hull notched up an impressive start, holding the more experienced County to a 2-2 draw.

Hull's first competitive football game was in the FA Cup, but they were eliminated, after a replay, in the preliminary round against Stockton, the score was 7-4 on aggregate. After disputes with landlords at The Boulevard, Hull City moved to Anlaby Road Cricket Ground.[2] After having played 44 friendly fixtures the previous season, Hull City were finally entered into the Football League Second Division for the 1905–06 season.[5] Other teams competing in the league that season included the likes of Manchester United and Chelsea, as well as Yorkshire rivals Leeds City, Bradford City and Barnsley. Hull faced Barnsley in their first game, a fixture which Hull won 4-1.[6] Eventually, Hull would finish the season in fifth place.[5] This article needs additional references or sources for verification. ...

The following season a new ground was built for Hull City across the road from the cricket ground. Still under the managership of Ambrose Langley, Hull continued to finish consistently in the top half of the table. They came agonisingly close to promotion in the 1909–10 season, recording what would be their highest ever finish in their history. Hull finished third, level on points with second placed Oldham Athletic, missing promotion on goal average by the slim margin of 0.29 of a goal.[5] Ambrose Langley (March 10, 1870 - January 29, 1937) was the manager of Hull City Football Club from 1905 until 1913. ...

Before World War I, Hull reached the quarter-finals of the FA Cup in 1915, beating West Bromwich Albion, Northampton Town and Southampton, before eventually going out to Bolton Wanderers in a 4-2 away defeat.[5] In cup competitions, the club's greatest achievement was in 1930, when they reached the FA Cup semi-final.[7] The cup run saw Hull knocking out Leeds United and eventual Champions of the Second and Third Division; Blackpool and Plymouth Argyle respectively. They then knocked out Manchester City, to meet Newcastle United in the FA Cup quarter finals. The first leg at St James' Park finished as a 1-1 draw, but in the replay Hull beat Newcastle 1-0. The semi-final match against Arsenal took place at Elland Road in Leeds, the game ended 2-2, and was taken to a replay. Arsenal knocked Hull out at Aston Villa's home ground, the game ended 1-0.[5] Image File history File links Hull_City30s. ...

In the 1948–49 season, managed by former England international Raich Carter, Hull won the Third Division (North),[8] and their newly built Boothferry Park ground saw a crowd approaching 50,000 for the Christmas Day game against Rotherham United, and exceeded by that for the FA Cup 6th round tie with Manchester United; the attendance of 55,019 still remains a record today.[9] The introduction to this article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter. ...

'Yo-yoing' between the second and third tiers of English football, Hull City had promotion seasons from the Third to the Second Division again in 1959 and 1966, winning the Third Division in the latter season.[10][11] Hull became the first team in the world to go out of a cup competition on penalties, which came against Manchester United in the semi-final of the Watney Mann Invitation Cup on 1 August 1970.[12] By the early 1980s, Hull City were down in the Fourth Division, and financial collapse lead to receivership.

The low ebb saw the arrival of unlikely looking saviours in the form of a chairman (Don Robinson) and manager (Colin Appleton) from the footballing outpost of Scarborough F.C. Promotion to Division Three followed in 1983, with a young team featuring the likes of future England international Brian Marwood, future England manager Steve McClaren, fearsome centre-forward Billy Whitehurst, and the prolific goal-scorer Les Mutrie. When Hull City missed out on promotion by 1 goal the following season, Appleton left to manage Swansea City.

Hull reached the Second Division in 1985 under new player-manager Brian Horton. They defied the odds to stay there for the next five years before finally going down in 1991, by which time the club's manager was Terry Dolan. Hull finished 14th in the Third Division in the 1991–92 season,[13] meaning that they would be competing in the new Football League Division Two the following season. In their first season in the rebranded division, Hull narrowly avoided another relegation but the board kept faith in Dolan and over the next two seasons they achieved secure mid table finishes. But terrible form in 1995-96 condemned Hull to relegation to Division Three.[14][4] Brian Horton (born 1948) is the manager of Macclesfield Town and is one of the few managers in English football to have taken charge of teams in more than a thousand games. ...

The club was purchased by former tennis player David Lloyd in 1997 and sacked Dolan as manager, who was replaced with Mark Hateley as boss after Hull could only finish in 17th place in the table in the 1996–97 season.[15][16] Hull's league form was steadily deteriorating to the point that relegation to the Conference was looking a real possibility. Lloyd sold the club in November 1998 to a South Yorkshire based consortium.[15] Hateley departed in November 1998 to be replaced by 34-year-old veteran player Warren Joyce, who steered the club to safety after being anchored to the foot of the table - Hull City fans refer to this season as "The Great Escape". After this feat, Joyce was perhaps unlucky to be replaced in April 2000 by the experienced Brian Little.[4] For other uses, see Tennis (disambiguation). ...

Little breathed new life into Hull and managed to get good results out of the players, despite briefly being locked out of Boothferry Park by the bailiffs and with liquidation looking a real possibility. Hull qualified for the Division Three playoffs in 2000-01, losing in the semi finals. A boardroom takeover by former Leeds United commercial director Adam Pearson had eased the club's precarious financial situation and all fears of closure were banished.[4] Boothferry Park (nicknamed Fer Ark) was a football stadium in Kingston upon Hull, and was home to the football club Hull City for over 50 years from 31 August 1946 until December 2002, when the club moved to a brand-new ground, the Kingston Communications Stadium. ...

The new chaiman ploughed funds into the club, allowing Little to rebuild the team. Hull occupied the Division Three promotion and playoff places for much of the 2001–02 season, but Little was sacked two months before the end of the season and Hull slipped to 11th under his successor Jan Mølby.[4] Image File history File links No higher resolution available. ...

Peter Taylor was named as Hull's new manager and in December 2002, just two months his appointment, Hull relocated to the impressive new 25,400-seater Kingston Communications Stadium after 56 years at Boothferry Park.[4] The 2002-2003 season was the 123rd season of competitive football (soccer) in England, from August 2002 to July 2003: // England national team Key: ECQ = 2004 European Championship qualifiers, F = Friendly; scores are written England first European club competitions UEFA Champions League Manchester United - Quarter finals Arsenal - Second group phase...

The two seasons which followed the opening of the new stadium were hugely successful. Hull were Division Three runners-up in 2003–04 and League One runners-up in 2004–05 - back-to-back promotions - which took them into the Championship, the second tier of English football.[17][18] Their first season back in the second tier, 2005–06, saw Hull finish in 18th place a comfortable 10 points clear of relegation and their highest league finish for 16 years.[19][4] The 2003-2004 season was the 124th season of competitive football in England. ...

However, Taylor left the club on 13 June 2006 to take up the manager's job at Crystal Palace.[4] Phil Parkinson was confirmed as his replacement on 29 June 2006,[20] but was sacked on 4 December 2006 with Hull in the relegation zone,[21] despite having spent over £2 million on players. Phil Brown took over as caretaker manager,[21] and took over permanently in January 2007, having taken Hull out of the relegation zone.[22] Brown brought veteran striker Dean Windass back to his hometown club on loan from Bradford City,[23] and his eight goals helped secure Hull's Championship status as they finished in 21st place.[24] At the end of the season, another familiar face, former manager Brian Horton, rejoined the club as Phil Brown's assistant.[25] is the 164th day of the year (165th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Throughout the majority of the history of the club, Hull have worn black and amber shirts with black shorts. These black and amber colours are where Hull's nickname, The Tigers, originated from.[4] However, in the club's first match against Notts County in 1904, white shirts were worn, with black shorts and black socks. During their first season in the League, Hull wore black and amber striped shirts and black shorts, which they continued to wear until the Second World War with the exception of one season, in which they wore sky blue shirts.[28] Following the end of the Second World War, Hull spent another season wearing sky blue, but changed to plain amber shirts, which they wore until the early 1960's, when they swapped back to stripes.[29] Image File history File links left arm of kit template File history Legend: (cur) = this is the current file, (del) = delete this old version, (rev) = revert to this old version. ... body of kit template File links The following pages link to this file: Arsenal F.C.

Old club crest

During the mid 1970s and early 1980s, the strip was constantly changing between the two versions of plain shirts and stripes. During the late 1980s, red was added to the kits but its duration went no further than this.[30] The early 1990s featured two 'tiger skin' designs, which have since featured in a number of 'worst ever football kit' articles. The 1998-99 season introduced a kit with cross-fading amber and white stripes; another experimentation which proved unpopular.[31] After the turn of the century, the club wore plain amber shirts until 2004, when the club celebrated its centenary by wearing a kit similar to the design of the one worn 100 years ago.[32] Image File history File links No higher resolution available. ...

Hull City did not wear a crest on their team shirt until 1947. This crest depicted a tiger's head in a yellow-shaded badge, which was worn up till 1955, when it was changed to just the tiger's head. This was worn for four years, when the shirt again featured no emblem. Then, in 1971, the club returned to showing the tiger's head on the shirt. This was used for four years, until the club initials 'HCAFC' were shown for five years. After this, a logo with the tiger's head with the clubs name underneath was used from 1980 until 1998. The next logo, which is currently used by the club, features the tiger's head in an amber shield which shows the clubs name, along with the clubs nickname, The Tigers.[33] Year 1947 (MCMXLVII) was a common year starting on Wednesday (link will display full 1947 calendar) of the Gregorian calendar. ...

Between 1904 and 1905, Hull City played their home games at The Boulevard.[34] This ground was used by Hull on a contract, where they would be allowed to use it when not used for Rugby League, costing the princely sum of £100 per annum.[35] Hull built their own ground, Anlaby Road, which was opened in 1906.[36] With the threat of the rerouting of the railway line through the Anlaby Road ground, the club was convinced it needed to secure its future by owning its own ground.[9] They negotiated the deal for land between Boothferry Road and North Road in 1929, which was financed by a £3,000 loan from The FA.[37] Boothferry Park (nicknamed Fer Ark) was a football stadium in Kingston upon Hull, and was home to the football club Hull City for over 50 years from 31 August 1946 until December 2002, when the club moved to a brand-new ground, the Kingston Communications Stadium. ...

During World War II, Anlaby Road was damaged by the Blitz, with repairs costing in the region of £1,000. The Cricket Club had served notice to quit at the same time and in 1943, the tenancy was officially ended.[36] Hull were forced to return to the Boulevard Ground from 1944 until 1945 due to the destruction of Anlaby Road by the German bombing, and the poor condition of the planned stadium at Boothferry Road.[35] Combatants Allied powers: China France Great Britain Soviet Union United States and others Axis powers: Germany Italy Japan and others Commanders Chiang Kai-shek Charles de Gaulle Winston Churchill Joseph Stalin Franklin Roosevelt Adolf Hitler Benito Mussolini Hideki Tōjō Casualties Military dead: 17,000,000 Civilian dead: 33,000...


Hull decided to continue with the development of the stadium at Boothferry Road and plans were commissioned. The work did not commence until 1932 because of financial problems, after only the terracing was started and the pitch was laid out. Due to a proposal to build a multi-purpose sports stadium on the site, the plans were temporarily thrown into doubt. However, as a reasonable price was not offered for the site, Hull decided to continue with the plans and development restarted in 1939. The ground was opened under the name of Boothferry Park on 31 August 1946. The attendance of 55,019, which saw Manchester United play Hull at Boothferry Park in 1949, is the grounds record attendance.[9] Boothferry Park (nicknamed Fer Ark) was a football stadium in Kingston upon Hull, and was home to the football club Hull City for over 50 years from 31 August 1946 until December 2002, when the club moved to a brand-new ground, the Kingston Communications Stadium. ... is the 243rd day of the year (244th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...
