They were in the top two for much of the season, and blew that. Then they blew their play-off semi. And now they have blown the final. These players know the chance they had.
They will now have to go again next year. 17:06Coyle: 'There's one man I want to celebrate with'By Lewis Browning Lewie Coyle, Hull captain, Sky Sports: It's tough. There's just one man I want to celebrate this with. He's not with us. I look up at the sky and I had a look up there today.
He's with me, I know he's with me, for sure. The next best thing is I have my family, my beautiful partner, my little boy, my brothers and my friend that have been there since day one. I don't think there's many people that thought I could captain a side to the Premier League and even saying that out loud sounds a little bit wild. I'm just an honest, humble kid.
But there's certainly one man that would have believed in me and that's my old man - and that's all I told myself throughout the game. He would'ver been saying 'you can do it, son, f*** them'. I know I swore and I shouldn't, I apologise, but I had to get it in there because that's how my old man spoke. I just kept replaying those words in my mind and he got us over the line today.
I know for a fact my old man did it.17:00Davies: 'McBurnie is the difference maker'By Lewis Browning Curtis Davies, former Hull defender, Sky Sports: It wasn't a game of much quality and there seemed to be a lot of tired legs out there. We were waiting for extra time and to see if there was going to be one bit of quality. I did think it was going to be a moment of quality in extra time or a mistake.
Unfortuntely for Sol Brynn, he makes a mistake, but Ollie McBurnie makes no mistake. We talked about him being a difference maker. He didn't have much to do in the game and was almost marked out of it. But when his moment came he was there to go and do it.
He sent Hull to the Premier League.16:54Hull lift the trophy! By Lewis Browning Lewie Coyle leads his side up those famous Wembley steps. And stops on the way to give his son a kiss. The players dance through the concourse, too.
There is so much sweat dripping off them. Now they make their ways towards the trophy. McBurnie is the first to receive his medal, and rightly so. Jakirovic is in the middle with Coyle too.
Coyle looks to the sky, in tribute of his late father. And Coyle lifts the trophy! Hull City are Premier League! 16:50Tigers fans celebrateBy Lewis Browning Shirts off! What a day for the Hull fans.
They celebrate and I Gotta Feeling by The Black Eyed Pears is blaring out. A night of celebration ahead. 16:44McBurnie: By Lewis Browning Ollie McBurnie, Hull goal scorer, Sky Sports: For the first time ever, I am speechless. I has been a long, hard season. We knew we wouldn't have all the ball.
Boro are a top team. We would be up against it, but we had one chance. it felt like it would be great for me to get it. What a feeling. I have said it before - as I have grown and matured I have grown into this role.
I enjoy it. I couldn't sleep last night. I am delighted. The gaffer is brilliant - such a good character.
There have been so many times this season he has dragged us through it and he deserves it as much as the boys. 16:38McBurnie starts the partyBy Lewis Browning Hull survived on goal difference last season. Now they have secured promotion. Acun Ilicali is punching the air in the directors' box. Ollie McBurnie is being mobbed.
Must be such a great feeling. 16:36Breaking:HULL RETURN TO THE PREMIER LEAGUEBy Lewis Browning Hull players collapse to the ground! Middlesbrough, after being reinstated following Spygate, are down this time! They were in League One as recently as 2020. They finished sixth in the Championship.
But now they are in the Premier League! What a way to do it, too. Congratulations to Hull! 16:34, 105'FULL-TIME: Hull 1-0 MiddlesbroughBy Lewis Browning Free-kick to Boro in the centre circle. Brynn is up.
The kick goes long. It's too long! And out for a goal kick! Fans think the whistle has gone.
It hasn't yet... We're into the 15th minute of stoppage time! Crooks has a shot blocked! AND THAT'S IT! 16:31, 101'Hull 1-0 MiddlesbroughBy Lewis Browning All I can see is orange flags waving.
Ayling goes back to his keeper. Can we put that goal down to an error from Brynn? Egan heads away as we pass 100 minutes. Who knows how long we have?
A couple of minutes, I expect. The flag is up and Hull can take their time with this free kick. 16:29, 99'Hull 1-0 MiddlesbroughBy Lewis Browning Sarmiento is on for Boro. Ibeh is on too. McNair and Lundstrum on for Hull.
We have about three minutes left to play. The Hull end has come alive. They must now defend for their lives, as they have all game. And here we go, back under way... 16:25, 95'Goal:Hull 1-0 Middlesbrough By Lewis Browning Hughes is back on and Hull...
SCOREEEEEEE! OOOOHHHH MYYYYYYY! I cannot believe what I have just seen! Nice build-up play on the left and Hirakawa gets a cross in.
Brynn comes to catch it, fails to gather, and McBurnie Fires in! Gelhardt is offside, but jumps over it on the line. And the goal stands! Middlesbrough have seconds to put this right. Key UpdatesTOP STORIES
