Fans were baffled to see the floodlights switched on
However, fans were confused to see the floodlights on – despite kick-off being in the middle of the day in August.
One person said: “Did anyone tell the Hull groundspeople that it was a 1230 kick off v #MUFC? Floodlights on?”
Another said: “Most of the UK are having a heatwave, yet Hull has managed to look like a midwinter game with the floodlights on at midday.
“Welcome back to the Premier League.”
Yes, the floodlights are on for a 12:30 kick-off between Hull City and Man United in August 😅
