A Brief History

Hull City AFC were founded in 1904. Their highest ever finish in the league came in 1910, when they came very close to winning promotion to the top flight, finishing third in the old Second Division. Level on points with second placed Oldham Athletic, they missed promotion on goal average by the slim margin of 0.29 of a goal.

In cup competitions, the club's greatest achievement was in 1930, when they reached the FA Cup semi-final.

City's darkest era came in the late 1990s, when the club became increasingly troubled by rising debts which almost put them out of business. They also came close to being relegated from the Football League. But a boardroom takeover in 2001 has seen their fortunes revived; having achieved promotion two seasons in a row, Hull City have now finally returned to the second tier of English football, the Football League Championship.

Modern Times

1986 - 1991: Life in the Second Division

Hull reached the Second Division in 1986 after finishing Third Division runners-up under 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.

1991 - 1996: Third tier team

Hull finished 14th in the Third Division in 1991-92, meaning that they would be competing in the new Football League Division Two. 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.

1997 - 2001: Striving to survive

Dolan was fired and replaced by Mark Hateley after Hull failed to get anywhere near the top of Division Three in 1996-97. By this stage, financial problems were taking their toll on the Tigers and it was starting to look as though the club would go out of business before long. And Hull's league form was steadily deteriorating to the point that relegation to the Conference was looking a real possibility - which surely would have meant the death of the club. 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.
