Hull City secure place in the top flight

May 25, 2008

Hull City secured a placein the Premier League yesterday beating Bristol City 1-0 in the Championship play-off final at Wembley. The only goal of the game came in the first have when vetran and Hull born striker Dean Windass volleyed in from the edge of the area. It was a great goal and will mean that Windass will ply his trade in the top flight at the grand age of 40.

Hull didn’t have it all their way in the match and had to rely on keeper Myhill to keep the lead making saves in the second half as Bristol City pushed on.

It been an amazing turnaround for Hull who were in the bottom league only four seasons ago. Promotion and the new KC stadium have been key to sucess this year as has manager Phil Brown who managed to save the side from relegation last year and lead them to promotion this year. The league One play-off between Leeds and Doncaster kicks off this afternoon.
