Hull City gave their
promotion hopes a big shot in the arm with a comfortable
win over
Leeds United.
A week after
winning the Northern 2A league title and gaining
promotion to the Northern 1A they faced
Leeds Beckett 2s at Sugden Sports Centre.
By Christmas,
Leeds were nine points clear in the
promotion places, and when 2010 started with an FA Cup third round
win at Manchester United - the club's first
win at Old Trafford for 29 years - the season was shaping up to be a memorable one.
United were also knocked out of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy Area Final on penalties at Carlisle and when Swindon
won at Elland Road in April,
Leeds slipped out of the
promotion spots for the first time in eight months.
