HullStarting the season #5 with 2 losses
Finally the process of movement to my new apartments has been finished and I can inform you about the progress of Hull story. 
Matches and table
And the table is:
What I can say… It looks somewhat sad. The Tigres are on the 9th position when Euro League was promised to the club’s board. On the other hand the distance from Euro League places is just of 3-5 points. So all the struggle is ahead certainly.
Moreover, I have very optimistic look at the situation because the most of those matches (when points were lost) were just unlucky. I mean Hull played very well but manage to miss a sudden goal in that or another match. Hull’s goal difference of +11 witnesses about that. So I am glad to inform that my team became stronger this season! 
Pay also attention that Arsenal is the absolute leader of Premier League, and the only club that managed to get a draw against The Gunners is Hull!
The example of unlucky games is the one against Newcastle. Just take a look at statistics! 
We had a lot of goal moments but Shay Given and fortune didn’t allow us to win the game!
But the most sad thing was loss of our ambitions of winning League Cup… It was totally unexpected when Zivkovic had got red card at the 5th minute of the League Cup quarterfinal with Derby. Derby is an average Championship team! Therefore I set up the reserve squad for this game. But that damned sliding tackle by Zivkovic crushed my plans and made me to regret about the first team players resting during this match! 
Stats of players
Traditional player statistics for you, my dear readers:
Ramirez became a main leader of the team making a lot of work on a pitch, scoring really great goals, making fine assists. He is truly core midfielder of The Tigres.
I would like also to bring your attention to Eugene Shakhov. He was bought two seasons ago. But only since this season (when he already learned some useful PPMs) he has started to show bright performance on DMC position making powerful long shots. So I use Shakhov during home matches as DMC instead of Damien Plessis because he is more dangerous during attacks. 
About newcomers. I am happy about Molinaro and Jagielka! They both defend very well and close flanks on Hull’s half of pitch in almost all matches. By the way, Hull is on the 5th place by conceded goals if we look at the table above.
Board confidence
There was the request about board confidence. Here it comes:

Haha, Leicester, 1 point with 15 games gone!!!
You'll do better Vitaliy, whilst your full-backs do well defensively, they need time to adapt to attacking tactics a little, so I am sure your team with progress.
does anybody know how to improve squad harmony if it is low. someone plaese help
I play with Arsenal and I always give a chance to my backup players when i play with lower division teams. Sometimes i got hurt :(. But i do it no matter what :D so dont be sad that you lost to Derby. Good luck :)

Anonymous,
I have the latest update. But don't forget that I started Hull game when FM 2009 had just been released. So it was 9.0.0 version.
Any reason ur fans are so happy with a 2-2 draw against Everton when their doing much worse than you are? ? ?
*When they're ^^^^^^^^^^^^

Hi Vitaliy, I have been a follower on this blog for a while following your progress. Firstly, I'd like to congratulate you on getting this far. So here is the reason I have written, I am asking you , nicely :P, could you post a few screenshots of your players like going through your team? Would help. Thanks in advance, Jordan

Try Matty Blinkhorn :o)
Jordan Dun,
Ok, I will do it in one of the next posts
hi vitaly,
did u use same tactic in home & away match with your hull? & is it the same tactic that u already post or u make a different tactic?? can u post a screenshot of ur new taktic if u had one?
arrrgh!!! my assistant manager told me if one of my player ( julien faubert ) want to play with higher tempo, what do u think??? should i follow him & change my long used tactic or i just ignore him?
zero,
I don't agree with you. Any striker can enter "black line" of his period in a club
ROY,
I have the same problem with O'Brien. But I ignore this assistant's comment :)
Regarding tactics I can say that I have been using the tactical apporoach described in the beginning of this post
Thanks
I want to ask why in Fm isnt Germanys national team? Do you know the reasons?
Zygimantas,
Germany's national team is not allowed to be included in the game due to exclusive licensing rights being owned by EA Sports' "FIFA" series
To get the germany national team. Go to your local disk - program files - sports interactive - fm 09 - data - db - 900 - inc - all. Then delete fake.Inc. Now when you start a new game you will have the german national team with real players lol! This has worked for the past few games and is likely to work on future ones so take note and do it before you get started on fm 2010 :) good times!
How did you get all the club badges?
