Hull City Association Football Club is an English association football club based in Kingston upon Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire, founded in 1904. The club participates in the Football League Championship, the second tier of English football. In 2007 � 08 they achieved promotion to the top flight of English football for the first time in their history, by winning the Championship play-off final at Wembley Stadium. They finished the 2008 � 09 season 17th in the Premier League table, successfully avoiding relegation by one point. The previous highest position Hull City had finished in the Football League was third in the old Second Division in 1909 � 10, which they matched in 2007 � 08 when they gained promotion. Their greatest achievement in cup competitions came in 1930, when the team reached the semi-final of the FA Cup.

Hull play their home games at the KC Stadium. They previously played at Boothferry Park, but moved to their current home in 2002, with Boothferry Park set for demolition. They traditionally play in black and amber, often with a striped shirt design, hence their nickname The Tigers. The club's mascot is Roary the Tiger.

Hull City vs Arsenal highlights THE LAST TIME HULL DID THIS....... Hull have only beaten Arsenal three times and only once before in the league, in the old Second Division in 1915 when the teams last met outside cup competitions. That was 11 years after Hull were founded and in that year Herbert Asquith was Prime Minister, beer cost 3d per pint and the Women's Institute was founded. Arsenal had just moved from south London to north and dropped the Woolwich element of their name. Sheffield United beat Chelsea 3-0 in the 'Khaki Cup Final', so called because so many soldiers went to the game, the last before competitive football was suspended due to the First World War. 'We've now got as many points as Derby got in the whole of last season,' Phil Brown said (Derby's former manager. He left because he got the sack... Big mistake!)
