Hull City boss Ruben Selles keen to keep building connections after Sheffield Wednesday triumph

Hull City head coach Ruben Selles believes moments like Charlie Hughes' thumping winning goal at Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday helps create a connection between the team and the supporters. While Wednesday fans were chanting against under-fire owner Dejphon Chansiri after yet more off-field chaos, 3,000 away supporters were jumping for joy after Hughes' 94th-minute winning goal in front of them at Hillsborough. In a season to forget for City , who continue to fight against relegation from the Championship, there have been some moments to treasure, especially on the road, and this was another in the Steel City that will live long in the memory.

And Selles says it's one that should be cherished before attention turns swiftly to Tuesday night's game at Watford. "Absolutely (these moments should be enjoyed), and listen, the season is not only for us," Selles said. "Life is short, and you have those moments that you play football for.



You want to be a professional for those moments in the game, the moments when you score that goal, to win it at the end, that means something for the club in front of your fans. It's just a powerful feeling, and we need to remember that. It's not that when we lose a game, we need to feel it for three days, and when we win a game, we need to think about the next one.

" The celebration was proper. The feeling in Charlie (Hughes) was really powerful and that's the feeling of the team and the feeling that I have, and you need those moments also to be a good character. You need to enjoy, you need to know how to enjoy those moments in the proper way, being respectful with everyone but also expressing all the feelings that you have because the season has not been the best season for the club, but if you see the way that he celebrated and the dressing room celebrated, it is the way that people want to do things together.

"The way we do things is the way that every single time things can happen on the pitch, but you will see a team that is together, compact and wants to play, perform and compete, and I think that's what the people want to feel. "If you manage to do that, sometimes situations are not going with you, but you will have those games. We talk about the games being in one goal almost every game since we arrived here, so with that kind of connection, that kind of performance, and then the final bit (the winning goal), I think you build those memories and the people find themselves represented by the football club and that's at the end what they want.
