Billy Batten is one of many reasons that away fans don't go to Hull. Hey Billy would you like me to buy you some crayons?

My question was purely hypothetical and I honestly thought that anyone answering it would take it that way.

I don’t for one minute think that FC would ever go under; it’s too well supported and has a CEO with a big bag of cash. Rovers, once again, have a good following and having them in SL makes for a great derby game.

My question was to gauge the dislike that Hull fans have for each other and, from the few replies it would seem that there is an honest and genuine hatred between the fans of the two clubs. Which, when you think about it, it absolutely ridiculous – “I really hate him, not because he has done anything to me or my family, not because his political views are potential harmful, not because of anything he has said or done at all but because he likes a different sports team to me”.

Pardon you.

Cross city rivalry, something you wont know about.

Jog on

Being a successful global brand, we tend to go for cross continental rivalry these days.
Something your small minded attitude shows all too well .

Global brand?

Even the little Hull KR get more mentions than you.

Ps i'm glad a Hetherington doesnt have a grip on my club. Pearson has seen all to closely how Gary and her husband operate

How many times have your venerable black and whartes ever contested a World Club Challenge?

Where? In the Hull Daily Mail?




Not as gald as we are that Pearson has no grip on ours.

This would be the Gary who out-manoeuvred Pearson over the Briscoe Jr transfer to such an extent that he's still crying about it, and the Kath who was in charge last time you actually won anything?

Pulling up trees i see then

So? All the more strange that The One True Pearson (TM) got his panties in such a bunch about the whole thing.


Seriously, what is with the Pearson love-in over there? I like Hull, as a city, I like the people (on the whole), I like the place, I have family there and I generally like the teams to do well (when they're not playing Leeds) but I wouldn't trust Adam Pearson any further than I could kick him. Serial club-owner with no real track record to speak of, pops off as soon as he gets bored with his new toy. Yet he seems to be on his way to a Papal nomination for canonisation in West Hull. In the words of those funny Americans, what gives?
