Now, four years later, the club sit in 21st place, facing possible relegation to League One. Attendances are at a new low and the club have won since January.

To make matters worse the club recently banned the Hull Daily Mail from attending their latest home match against Charlton and have publicly condemned an investigation by the Athletic.
